Generations Dogfight (repaint of CW Viper) & Decepticon Runamuck (repaint of CW Blackjack) versus set.

You need to purchase a copy of Transformers Generations 2015 (http://www.amazon.co.jp/%E3%83%88%E3%83%A9%E3%83%B3%E3%82%B9%E3%83%95%E3%8 2%A9%E3%83%BC%E3%83%9E%E3%83%BC%E3%82%B8%E3%82%A7% E3%83%8D%E3%83%AC%E3%83%BC%E3%82%B7%E3%83%A7%E3%83 %B32015-%E3%83%92%E3%83%BC%E3%83%AD%E3%83%BCX-%E3%82%BF%E3%83%AB%E3%82%AB%E3%82%B9/dp/4813022669), then fill out and send in the exclusive order form. You can purchase 1 set for 5000JPY ($60) or 2 for 9400JPY ($110). Call me crazy, but I think that's a bit much to pay for a pair of Legends figures! :eek: Be aware that while Amazon Japan does ship books overseas, Hero-X does not. According to the terms and conditions for these toys...

海外からの申し込みは受け付けておりません。海外への発送も行いません
^They do not take orders from overseas, and do not ship overseas. :(
So while it's easy enough to purchase the book from Australia, you will need to be able to use a Japanese postal address to place an order on these overpriced toys.

Aww man, was looking forward to getting the other Battlecharger, but not for that price.

I saw the pic first on Twitter without the names. I recognised Dogfight but a Black and White Decepticon Car... Defintely needs more orange, and maybe some gold highlights. This looks more like Autorooper to me.

I think that is an alright price, actually. I would buy a set, but don't have/want The Generations 2015 Book.

It's good that they're making them, but eh. I hope Hasbro does their own affordable versions.

THATS what's been bugging me! I couldn't figure it out why something wasn't sitting right.

I'd still like him to go with my TAV Runabout but too dear for my wallet

TFyuki just posted that this Generations guide book is a Car Robots special with a picture of Fire Convoy, damn I want a reissue of that toy with non-cracking tyres.

Those preview pages are promising. I hope they continue to fill in the gaps over coming volumes. A look at all the Beast Era toys in one book is overdue.

Heh, I initially thought it was Bug Bite until I read the name. :p
Interesting to see that they're calling him "Decepticon Runamuck," which means that somewhere in Japan, another toy company has acquired the rights to the name "Runamuck." :eek: I'm not familiar with other toy lines, so I have no idea who's holding it. Although it's entirely possible that someone else may simply be squatting on the rights without using it... Harmony Gold style. :rolleyes:

Yep. I made a story about the book's announcement (http://www.otca.com.au/boards/showthread.php?t=21660) but news and 'excitement' about new toys got this new thread started.

Damn I want that dogfight. I must be one of the few people that isn't interested in Runamuck, I am really happy with the TFCC versions.

Is the Powerglide mould the best choice for Dogfight? Seems like one of the plane moulds might be a better fit, if not much more in robot mould then at least in alt mode.

Another promo-image (http://news.tfw2005.com/2016/01/06/new-image-million-publishing-dogfight-vs-runamuck-two-pack-307460) of the 2-pack that comes out in May, of Dogfight and Runamuck.

Only a month away from release, some new images have been released (http://news.tfw2005.com/2016/04/14/million-publishing-transformers-adventure-dogfight-vs-runamuck-set-314118) of the 2-pack of Dogfight and Runamuck.

When these do hit the secondary market after release, expect huge prices, as the pair were 5000 yen for those able to order them in Japan, which is about AU$60 for two Legends sized toys... so expect nothing less than that on the secondary market.

I think this might be out now, as it was a May item, and a set of photos have been posted up (http://news.tfw2005.com/2016/05/27/million-publishing-dogfight-vs-runamuck-set-hand-images-316087) on facebook of Dogfight and Runamuck, with their packaging.

Did anyone else get this set?
