Nice one. So hmm they both have two fists and a hose/missile by default and an extra hose/missile in a different colour as part of their accessory collection. Still seems an odd way of selling it.
(But I hope that future MP Hoist, Trailbreaker and Sunstreaker all continue the trend of giving you the choice of fists vs "missiles"!)
Preorders up at Ami Ami and some better quality pics:

So there's a blue print of the tower in the pic... I dont see it listed as an accessory. I wonder if that's the free gift that BBTS is mentioning about - says in their site, not yet announced . Im really pleased that Takara included the all orange head, gives us a choice. Even more pleased with the mini tower accessory... cant wait to recreate that scene .... in MP size this time heheh...:D
The gift that BBTS mentions should be the Asia exclusive bonus -- whatever that turns out to be.
It seems that TT doesn't show the paper accessories in the accessory group pic -- Ratchet came with his cardboard chest insert readout, but it wasn't shown in the group pic:

Instead it was shown in the "action" shots:

Transformers Masterpiece Architect Grapple transforming from Robot to a Crane Truck has appeared!!
Grapple, the proud Autobot architect, was popularised in an impressive Transformers (Fight Super Robot Lifeform Transformers) mid-season episode.
This product is not merely a redeco of the vehicle, as others up to now, to replicate animé Grapple's portly proportions about 50% of his parts are totally new sculpts. The new, built-in, crane boom arm, has a surprising transformation allowing all three parts to remain connected and are both housed in his back and contribute to an increase in the volume of both of his legs.
As seen in the cartoon, it is possible to replace the crane hook with a grapple (claw) or bucket, closer episode appearance can be achieved with a different head, three types of faces, his left arm barrel and animé reproduction replacement chest grill, in addition to the miniature Solar Tower model designed and built by Grapple, its fabricating tool and blueprints.
As an architect of his own dreams, Grapple wins his reproduction as a Masterpiece.
