C-15, C-16 and C-17 revealed for Jan and Feb

[kup]

The following Henkei figures have been announced:

C-15 Inferno, C-16 Dinobot, and C-17 HotRoad (Smokescreen)

There is a good chance that Dinobot's colors will be improved so that it can resemble the cartoon version more.

I don't see how they can improve much on Inferno or Smokescreen aside from adding bits of chrome.

Sounds interesting. The 2 Autobots sound pretty basic for the Henkei series. Adding chrome should be a piece of cake for them, but like I said about Cheetor, where are they going to chrome Dinobot, are they even going to?

Sounds good though. Can't wait for pics

Looks like Ratchet is still on the cards at 14. Sweet.

Chrome missiles on Smokescreen alone would improve that toy a lot IMO. I wonder why they're calling it Hot Road though... have TakaraTOMY lost the rights to the Smokescreen name since the TFC reissue?

[iceburn]

so what's C-14???

griffin posted C-12 and C-13 (http://www.otca.com.au/boards/showthread.php?t=2407)

there's C-15 to C-17 here

[oops...ignore this post plz]
jay post states that C-14 is Ratchet

I wonder why they're calling it Hot Road though... have TakaraTOMY lost the rights to the Smokescreen name since the TFC reissue? It is most likely a typo and it's supposed to be Hot Rod, ie, the Japanese name for Armada Hot Shot.

where are they going to chrome Dinobot, are they even going to?
Maybe his rigid grill structure? ;) :p

[FFN]

Most likely they'll chrome his tail bone sword (assuming he comes with one, of course).

Yeah that would be the logical thing to chrome. I hope it comes with one as its Dinobot's signature weapon.

Also the numbers may not be final, there could be some rearrangements based on release schedules.

Having seen how cool Classics Inferno is (& how good Hasbro's Smokescreen looks ;)), the Classics versions of these 2 will do me nicely... :)

[Zippo]

I was going to say how are they going to fix Inferno on a deluxe card .. then I rememberd that Takara have done Voyagers already so they will use that box.

I think I need to see Universe Dinobot before I make any purchase decisions, but Smokescreen is a guaranteed purchase.

But .. so many Autobots. The Decepticons do not stand a chance.

[SilverDragon]

We need more Decepticons/Predacons. It's way too overbalanced in favour of the Autobots/Maximals.

Universe Terrorsaur, anyone?

[GoktimusPrime]

...that's one thing I miss with Beast Wars (and Machine Wars too) - far more even balance between baddies and goodies. Ah... the good old days of collecting TFs in versus sets. :)

Good point. We keep getting Decepticons as exclusives. It's like Botcon '07 all over again. :D

With Ratchet my guess as to why he's delayed is b/c of his new head, what Takara do is wait for the production of Hasbro's lines first and then use the mold to do there own. Well, that's my guess anyway.

Why must you be postponed until February...? :( (We need you to repair Hasbro's mess... :D)

[MV75]

Poor ratchet. Why must you use that ratchet mould? :D
