I just got my "complete payment" notice from ShowZ regarding TM Cheetor. So excited for this. Come on TransArt, I need a BIG Transmetal MEGS to go with the Ravage that will be coming out soon.

 

Fully paid for. Waiting for ShowZ to ship now.

 

Waits patiently for a video review....

 

I asked Chosen Prime and they said they will be receiving him and that the pre-order will be going up shortly.

 

I'ma be completely honest... I've had my pre-order in with ShowZ from the beginning.
Seeing those pics released yesterday, I... I just don't like it.

I FREAKING LOVE IT!
So much so, I'm continuing my season 1 strategy, and I just bought a 2nd to showcase that gorgeous Beast Mode!!!
Dammit... My shelf space is dwindling BIGLY!

Now I on the hunt for a used (2nd) Skateboard Gorilla!!!

 

And just popped up on TCP along with their Ravage.

 

On a Side Note... I saw someone mention they hoped TransArt released Terrorsaur & Scopanok

I saw the mention they hoped TransArt released Terrorsaur & Scorpinok... I just can't see TransArt doing them. They seems to be SOLELY focused on Season 2, specifically Trans Metals.
Which is probably as much of an Engineering decision as anything else... as the Real World animal skins/textures are extremely hard to reproduce.
That, and they are probably confident TAKARA will get to them eventually.
Which would also mean Silverbolt would sadly be a No-Go... although the snake/scorpion body of Quickstrike seems more suited for their repertoire.

 

I am still hoping the company that made Winged Dragon 01 (TM2 Megatron) will make tiger hawk and maybe eventually silverbolt..

 

Fine with me, I want them to do Transmetal Tarantulas stat.

 

Right after they do Transmetal Megatron of course!

 

Of course.

 

Oh i want to see megs. Lets go

 

New pics!

 

Alas he does not have the green paint on the kitty nose. Oh well it looks like I'm going to have to paint it myself on the two copies that I ordered. Still very excited to get this. Keep it up TransArt. Get Ravage out soon and a TM Megatron design up as well .

 

If you do paint the nose yourself can you let us know what colour you use as I’m unsure as to what colours to get or mix together  

 

Jeez, that pic with Depth Charge and Tiger Hawk makes me really want TransArts to do them. I'm really hoping for Rampage and Depth Charge at some point, but whew...So excited we're getting Ravage next! Hoping after him will be TM Tarantulus and TM1 Megatron!!!

 

They do look great and I believe if their current TMs sell well they will keep making more (that's why I am buying two of each).
Keep in mind that these toys are hand painted customs and not original toy colors.

 

Sad to see there's still no paint on his nose, otherwise he looks phenomenal!

 

As soon as I see a couple videos or comments confirming good QC, I’ll likely pick this up. Wasn’t exactly on my radar but the newest images make it clear that it’s a fully original figure and not an “improved KO.”
