As from Cheem's post yesterday, per the TFC Weibo listing, all they've said so far is Q3 2020, so probably at least July at the earliest.

 

Thanks

 

I've said it other places; but as much as I love the look of the new Nuclear version, I'm not going to buy a whole figure for it. Maybe if they release it in a black "Nemesis" version. Otherwise the only way I will buy it is as a red and blue or unpainted upgrade kit.

 

From where? Show z has a high shipping rate that has stopped making me buy any new things right now.

 

Yeah I know. Big price to pay for my happiness

 

DAMN I would DEFINITELY buy a Nemesis version.

Also... I'd buy a MEGATRON version!!!! especially with that wicked looking missile cannon? Remold his chest a little and the missile tip so it looks like an open cannon. Bring it on, TFC

 

Teaser (New trailer?)

They are going to milk this mould a lot! I hope they realize that MP scale stylized stuff is where the money is at.

 

Maybe a super mode? I'm down for that.

 

Please be Ultra Magnus!

 

Could be a Nova Prime.

 

So, reading over many of TFC's reply comments on Weibo over the last few weeks, it looks like they have no plans of doing a classic red and blue release of the new NB mold, but have stated a few times they will be doing a black version. Not sure what that means for this new teaser with what looks like a giant trailer, but honestly, if the release a whole line of various green camo Primes with a wide variety of accessories, it'd give me personally a pretty solid reason to own more than just one of them.

 

Personally, I would've preferred they just release the original Prime set into the UMagnus color with an additional UM standard head that can be swapped out from the white robot cab head. I thought that set is just perfect and adequate for UM. MM photo digibash of Prime into UM w/ the MP22 head was spot on.

This newer trailer will probably even more expensive compared to the previous release. With that being said, I can see this new trailer could be called UM. He does have that hauling/transporting trailer look. My only concern, that trailer looks very massive and will make the armor UM appears too bulky and kibble. This is where I love the original set repaint into UM. Then again, this new teaser may not even be UM, but another character, so my comment is just another useless talk, lol.

 

This mould in black = something I'd actually buy. Nice!

 

Looking forward to see what they have planned.

 

I'm sure it's just hopeful thinking making me see things, but is anyone reminded of the containers the Diaclon Suits come with when looking at orange-highlighted rectangular panels on the side? I recall the initial figure having some interaction with the Diaclone pilots, so maybe?

 

You can't just mention @malcontentman's amazing digibash and not show it  



Seriously I would buy the hell out of this.

According to google translate:

 

Could I see myself buying this mold again if it were released with some kind of crazy super mode, especially in a drastically different color scheme?

Yep.
