An image has been shared by famitoy and relayed to us by catz of our 2005 Boards, which shows off what the set will potentially look like - although the image specifies it is not the final product but just an illustration.

We will keep you updated on more details of this cool set when they become available. The price is as yet unconfirmed but is said to be "not that different compared to two United figures"

Not really feeling the Megatron redeco, but love the black Prime - always have been a sucker for Nemesis/Black Prime redecos. :o

Yeah, I just saw/read about those - I'm definitely feeling a Nemesis vibe coming from Op but Megatron looks sort of like a Shadow Dimension type of thing, cool none the less. :cool:

Pity the pics are just photoshops though. :(

Oh dear...I think i'm gonna have to get me a set of these... :(

Anyone order from those guys before? (I've never heard of them :o)

Black repaints... how original - NOT! I think it was Shortpacked who once made a parody comic of a Takara exec meeting when they were deciding on the colour of their next limited exclusive repaint. So they spin this "Wheel O' Colour" and the "pizza slices" on the wheel are: black black black black black clear black black ;)
