    Hey, I'm happy for the 3 people that were on pins and needles waiting for this guy, but this is a HUGE F*** You from Takara to all transformers fans of G1 and Beast Wars that have been waiting forever for certain characters who inexplicably have not been made.

    Where's the Insecticons? Grimlock 2.0? The other dinobots? I didn't know insects and dinosaurs needed licenses. Where's Rattrap? Rhinox?

    Come on Takara, this is bush league.

    Sigh...not this again.

    Why haven't you made everything I want!? Where's your commitment to please ME and ME alone!? Why aren't you delivering on the promises you never made to ME!? What Japanese market!? how dare they like characters that weren't part of MY childhood!?

    Most likely they're on the way. I would have agreed with you 6 years ago when the MP line had a totally different direction and pace, but we now have 3 different eras of TFs getting the MP treatment and as a whole the MP line has ramped up its speed like crazy.

    I would now consider these one off releases that you don't like to be a pot hole whereas a few years ago they could have been considered road blocks.

    Man that little button of a tail looks ridiculous. He is so plain... no fur texture, no details, just big shiny flat panels.
    I watched the anime but don\'t recall that rocket launcher weapon. But odd he does not have the mane-cannons (just two) or the rotating mane weapon.

    FWIW his rant is easier to read than your rant which was a long paragraph with no page break in between. Just sayin' ;)

    i'm confused as to why they showed artemis in the first place if it'll be months before we may even get a tease for the repaint it comes with

    Plenty of 3P options for dinos and bugs.

    If people have a self-imposed 'official only' policy then, well, that's on them. I can't seem to feel bad for them.

    And if you’re gonna only buy officials you should probably realise that Takara is gonna take some time to make all the rest of the figures. They’re changing up a lot. True fans gotta notice the trends and understand.

    That wouldn’t be too bad. Especially since I still don’t have a Beast Convoy figure.

    When was an Artemis figure shown again? I can't find pics of it.

    Perfectly readable to me.

    He\'s actually pretty accurate and I do like his bot. I have three versions of Lio but this one will be the best one without question. Not in a rush to get him but in time
