    hhhmmm.... maybe when I'm bored enough I'll try to grab a few people and try to loosely link every single TF continuity in some ridiculous way, sounds dumb enough to be fun. :p

    Wicked. An Artemis figure. I wonder who Moon will come with if not Lio Convoy?

    The original Big Convoy toy seems to scale pretty well with MP Lio Convoy.

    Nice! Forgot about Artemis! She's like the space ship AI guide for the BW2 Maximals! Kinda like a Ti Ai from Car Robots.

    She’s not much of a guide as she never interacts with any other character besides Moon through the entirety of BWII.

    I think she interacted with Lio Convoy at least...

    Edit: Hope Artemis has her giant toy hammer too...

    I think that’ll be smaller than Lio Convoy though. And Big Convoy was kinda big.
    She talks to Lio Convoy a fair bit. I actually just watched the episode where they go into the temple and she tells them about what’s going on.
    Well she is a big step up compared to other Spike figures. Given how she has more detail and will probably be bigger.

    So excited for this. Love the anime accuracy. Not sure why a lot of people aren’t liking it... if you like the original figure because he’s more “vicious” looking (more American/western appeal), you don’t have to buy this.
    Looking forward to Artemis as well! I love getting characters never released in toy form before :D

    Surprised they gave her a face. Takara usually likes to give the human figures that comes with MPs featureless, melted faces

    Here are a few thoughts I have that are stupid.

    I have always felt that there is a BW team and G1 team at Takara. I have been repeatedly amazed at the BW team and slightly disappointed at the G1 team. With that being said, I wondered if they switched around there projects. This MP Hound looks Beautiful and fits in with any MP style. While on the other hand, This Lio Convoy looks kinda messy with the lion head and back. I think I would have rathered they just did a swap out face instead of a rotating thing.
