I really like that Breakdown...but I REALLY hate applying stickers. I think I'll wait for the Hasbro release (assuming we ever get one...).

I never thought I would say this, but that Bumblebee is awesome! We need him here in the states!

It's like Terrorcon Bumblebee is an allegory for the sad state of Bumblebee in our generation: A shambling, wrecked, empty husk of a Transformer. Also, totally want it. And Breakdown, Unicron, Nemesis Prime, Ultra Magnus, Thundertron, MECH Breakdown, Swerve, and Jet Vehicon.

Here's hoping Hasbro gives us at least 75% of these figures. I won't get my hopes up for TerrorBee though.

And that "Darkness Megatron" looks like a hybrid of Prime and G1 Megs, especially with the chrome (those don't look like stickers {!}) and tribal tattoos (those do though). It's like someone tossed the Hasbro Prime Megatron and a G1 Megatron toy into a Blender and this got spat out. That is not a bad thing. Tack on a Sweet-looking Purple Gora Micron and a Not-Ratbat (Hades), and you have one weird, awesome figure.

And speaking of Hades, is he still considered a Micron? Because he's bigger than a few of the deluxe figures in the line!

so whats up with Bumblebee? season 2 still hasnt aired here in canada so is that a reference to something that happens to him this current season? or is it some comic reference or simply a "just because" repaint? lol

I'm guessing it's like TFA Elite Guard Bumblebee, just for fun.

Still Terrorcon BB isn't too bad, I would have preferred a different head or someti=hing like Terrorcon Cliffjumper, rather than the overused Black Repaint

It has no basis in the show or comics or any official Prime fiction that I know of, it's a "just because" figure. Just because KIDS LOVE BUMBLEBEE or something.

Want Breakdown. Badly. Don't want Arms Micron Breakdown. Come on Hasbro.

That silver paint on Megatron is not only messy, but it's also only on the front of his chest and head. That's just poor.

Breakdown is awesome. Darkness Megs chest just looks way too shiny for me.

Posted by Gearslide on June 17th, 2012 @ 4:45pm CDT

Anyone want to bet that the 5mm port on Breakdown's shoulder will be on the Hasbro version, and that his powerizer gun will sit there? That's where his little shoulder-mounted blaster is in the show. Considering that nearly every Powerizer (except Starscream) comes with two items, which are usually a fold-up gun and a melee weapon (Optimus has the blaster and sword, Megatron has the Fusion Cannon and arm blade, Bulkhead has the Wrecking Ball and Ram, and Dreadwing has his Gatling gun and sword), Breakdown will probably come with the shoulder gun and his hammer.

Love the new MP figures.

The (3) cassette gimmick in MP Soundwave is perfect. I am blown away that the MP cassettes are the same size as the G1 cassettes and engineered with all the details.

I terrific how MP Sideswipe and Alert have some mold differences besides a head. I like Red Alert's static electricity accessory on his head. I wonder if Red Alert will come with the jackhammer that are exclusives with Sideswipe.

I am looking forward to all of these figures.

TimothyR wrote:i personally wouldn't mind just paying $200 and have everything included, the two doors, the cube, and the three cassettes (well, really, they should just give us 4 cassettes, we should get both frenzy and rumble).

I bet Takara is going to release Soundblaster with Buzzsaw or some other tape and we'll end up coughing up another $160 to get that one tape.

Didn't you see the first blurry pics? They had huge "No Pictures" signs all around them. after those first blurry pics showed up on the Internet, they probably became all the more vigilant.

No mate. I don't think I did see them. If I did I was probably too busy trying to make out Unicron's alt-mode.

Pretty sure it's gonna be the reverse, because if he has a hammer they could do a thing like Bulkheads weapon, and make the gun the solid plastic one.

That's a good point. That's probably how Hasbro will do it too. I hope not though. I'd rather the Hammer be accurate and the gun be mechtech nonsense, because if things work out like that, I can just take Arcee's oversized blaster and stick it on his shoulder.

for buzzsaw i wouldn't be upset.. but for say ratbat.. i would be.

releasing two packs of MP cassettes every so often is a great idea. here's hoping that's what happens.

still no good photo's of ironhide, magnus, and unicron?? .. yet of course we get better photos of the bumblebee repaint.. cause we ALL know that that's what people want to see.

i would absolutely love the takara voyager megatron if his whole body looked like his chest.. but just having a couple parts shiny like that makes it look pretty stupid. like the takara animated figures.

The sad thing is, if we even get a Voyager Breakdown here in the U.S. (and that's a BIG if), Hasbro will likely do a totally NEW and inferior mold, which will be ugly, undersized, have barely a particle of paint, and will come with the most inaccurate weapons it is possible to equip him with.

Seems like the regular pattern there.

It's not a big "IF", it's a big "IF NOT". And it will be that mold, sans micron ports. Making entirely new molds of Japan's stuff is Bandai's schtick. I don't know why everybody thinks we're not getting Breakdown in the US. True, he was ignored at Botcon, but there's this little event that Hasbro usually attends coming up in a few months called the San Diego Comic Con where we tend to get little announcements about insignificant toylines that happen to include Transformers. All bets are that Breakdown will get his formal Hasbro announcement there. With the production and release schedules, Botcon can't be the big debut event anymore. Just the facts.

i can't recall that pattern ever actually happening.. i mean.. takara is the company not using paint anymore lol.

plus.. hasbro has given us voyager starscream, knockout, vehicon, wheeljack, soundwave, and ratchet... which are really great figures..

hasbro should get it's ass reamed when they mess up like they did with the first editions .. and potentially breakdown.. but they should also get praised when we get incredible molds like the ones i've listed above.

also.. with the weapons.. takara's weapons aren't exactly accurate either. to me, a lot of them look like fisher price versions of their on show weapons. .. they're oversized, they sort of have the right shape to them.. but there's just something off. i don't really care for these little arms micron things, but hey, you have to pick your poison because hasbro's voyager weapons aren't any better, (though dreadwings looks like it could work) but the price for hasbro's is more palatable..

really looking forward to mini fort max, hope they do Encore the real thing though. looks like they upsized gora for darkness megs, but i kinda prefer the Deluxe megatron's micron on my voyager megs, looks like a better fit to me and the vac metal isnt working for me on DM either. im getting that jet vehicon and i may try for a future re-release of breakdown
