Agreed! I can't wait for these!! Bluestreak was my first Autobot Car.
Just a heads up on Robot Kingdom, "All pre-orders placed on or before 15th September 2013 will be guaranteed the Coin and Amazon Exclusive Missile Launcher."

They are a thing of beauty
I.....I just had a nerdgasm
They are they perfect fusion of toy and cartoon representation
Look at Prowl. He looks just like he did in the cartoon. Amazing work
Wouldn't it be nice if these new MPs came with human "accessories" as well.
I mean Sideswipe (lambor) has his extra of sorts - the pile drivers (should've gotten a rocket pack too IMHO. Then there's Red Alert with the brain sparks earmuffs.... what do these guys get.. nuthin extra? Don't get me wrong I'm like getting them even without an extra stuff hehehe
Im just wishdreaming if ever - Prowl can have Chip Chase in wheelchair - in reference to that episode that Chip took over his motion to fight off the Seekers, Smokescreen can prolly have his wrist cheating wiring - okay so that's not too exciting... prolly some energon chips (in reference to his gambling episode), now Bluestreak - hmmm Im not sure what accessory goes with him, he didn't really make much of an impression in the old toons....mebbe a Sparkplug figure? :p
I'm generally not an accessories fan. Personally they're a waste of space and money. Sideswipe's pile drivers are in a draw never to see the light of day, same with most accessories. Red Alert has his PANIC! Lights on purely to differentiate him from SS and TT on the shelf.
But your idea is pretty cool Liege, Chip or Sparkplug in the same scale and Daniel would be awesome. :)
If they ever make an MP Arcee - Daniel could be her accessory. Which means never then......knowing Hasbro...
I'm hoping for a Chip Chase with the upcoming Bumblebee...
Otherwise there's always Dr. Wu...
The new Art feather Goldbug that just came out comes with Chip chase.
Of course, MP Prowl and Streak come with an additional missile launcher if you order from Amazon Jp or Robot Kingdom.
all Autobot MPs should come with the parts needed to build Autobot X
That wouldn't make sense for the TakaraTOMY market since Arcee and Daniel (thankfully) never binary bonded in the Japanese continuity. It'd make more sense for MP Arcee to come w/ Cerebros ("Spike") as her driver since she was basically Fortress Maximus' setchetary (Hey Dad!'d) in The☆Headmasters. Though it'd be easy enough for Hasbro to replace it w/ Daniel (they did give their version of MP RodimusQuote:

isnt that what he is meant to be? a frankenstein of Autobot spare parts. It would be a fun collectible to build.Quote:

Anyway, 10 days to go until Prowl. :)
So close to single digit wait.
This is where it gets excruciating.
I ordered all 3 from Robot kingdom together so I won't be seeing mine till late December...Quote:

I did check the difference between the postal costs, and it didn't seem like I was going to save much by having them shipped together. That was only with the first two guys though.
I haven't bothered to change my pre-order for SS yet. He's still on pre-order at BBTS.
I ordered Prowl & Bluestreak together but I ordered Smokescreen separately.Quote:

Just wish they had rubber tyres. Small niggle, but still.
