    Can't find anything on Redheat and Stickout, are they original micromasters? They also may be the cop car and fire engine.

    Yeah, "Stickout" sounds like "Stakeout."

    I've been wondering about the Hasbro release of Soundwave. Unless this one will have the red visor.

    Yeah, Hasbro has been suppressing Takara's uniqueness more and more for a couple years now. The last Takara figure's I've bought were Pounce and Wingspan an that was only because I refused to get a $100.00 box set from BBTS for just 1 Legends class figure.

    These days the only thing I'd be paying extra for is a different box.

    Takara is not really worth it now.

    Kinda sucks..I liked the paint differences and pack in variety. It gave you options with those molds.

    Agreed. And from my understanding it's mostly due to Hasbro not allowing Takara to make better quality figures anymore.

    They weren't always worth that extra cost when Takara was able to add better paint apps, additional features and weapons to the same molds but now they don't really add anything new at all. So who in their right minds is going to pay $70-$80 more for Titan class figure with no differences other than the box or maybe a comic book?

    I remember seeing at this Japanese toy store that they were selling the Takara versions of POTP stuff, and it was hilarious to see them selling the figures for literally twice the money of the Hasbro version, when they are the EXACT same figures. And of course online retailers do the same thing too. Honestly I don't even know why you would bother importing them in the first place.

    Anyway, I agree that it blows that Takara has barely done anything with the Legends line in the past year or two. I actually enjoy having a reason to get two figures of the same character, but obviously there was no point since POTP. Even though I'm more of a toy-accuracy guy, I like having the option of buying the cartoon-accurate toy as well.

    I dont understand why Japan doesnt get Siege at the same time the US does ? Now its a universal deco so it should be just one giant ass factory run then they can slap a takara sticker on the box like they often have done.
