JP FOC Gen Skywarp & Blaster

[griffin]

The first of what could be Japan-exclusive Fall of Cybertron toys has been revealed with a Skywarp toy (redeco of Starscream). Since Hasbro haven't made mention of any more FOC toys, this could end up being like some TFPrime toys... requiring collectors to buy the odd JP toy to complete the set of characters.

It also lists Blaster & Steeljaw as upcoming JP releases as well, (http://www.seibertron.com/transformers/news/new-takara-preorders-tg17-blaster-steeljaw-and-tg18-skywarp/26322/) each is likely to have the shiny colourings of other JP FOC toys.

I saw that. I'm considering Skywarp but the price might break that. I hope he gets a domestic release.

Official images of the pair have been mirrored here (http://www.tfw2005.com/transformers-news/japanese-transformers-40/generations-japan-skywarp-and-blaster-images-176451/).
The Blaster remould turned out okay I think.

The Takara Blaster looks more G1-ish than the Hasbro one, IMO.

Oh, Skywarp is nice. Blaster is still cool.
