JP TFPrime toys to have exclusive decos

The Vehicon drone looks a little better. More show accurate at least. I'd love to troop build a few of them if they weren't priced so much higher...

They do look to be a bloody awesome figure huh? :D
It's the 1st figure I've actually given proper consideration to troop building myself ;):cool:; I had thought about doing it with Classicsverse Scourge but I've just not managed to convince myself yet. :rolleyes::p

I'm thinking mebbe I'll shell out for one Japanese deco and troop build a few of the cheaper local ones if I really like the figure.

Absolutely beautiful. Cartons ordered.

Yeah, actually I was thinking that alt mode looks a lot like the universe legends Rodimus.

And then you can make the JP one the unit commander! At least that's what I plan on doing.:p

Since the Hasbro toys are fairly close to the cartoon colours, maybe the JP versions will be done in a similar fashion to how they did their Animated toys - with shiny decos.

I found some new listings on HLJ that I (think!) might be TF Prime. Since Hasbro released some "first editions" I think these items might be the Takara version. Strangely though, there's no Arcee and a new character Beacon that is a Decepticon

First Edition Starscream

First Edition Decepticon Beacon
http://www.hlj.com/product/TKT43775
Vehicon perhaps?

First Edition Bumblebee
http://www.hlj.com/product/TKT43779

First Edition Megatron
http://www.hlj.com/product/TKT43799

Beacon would fit with the Japanese pronunciation. Goki'd be the expert.
