TFW member Sol Fury has posted details of a new box set for the 86 movie featuring a group of 5 slightly redecoed bots in Arcee, Blurr, Kup, Springer and Ultra Magnus. The colors look sharp but wonder how much of this is Hasbros usual impressive promo shots which tend to differ from actual release.

They are supposed to have a shiny metal like paint, similar to the JP Animated toys.
It's a cool looking set and I like the idea behind it. But I shudder to think what the price is going to be...
is that Kup slightly re-moulded?
This is a pretty good set of toys and the box looks great.
With all these TFTM sets I reckon there's a good chance of a Platinum Unicron too right.
That set is awesome. If metallic, very tempted with Arcee, Springer (that gold!!!) and maybe Blurr. GDO Kup is already great, and Magnus... Maybe...
What an awesome looking set... I want to get this set just for the poster :p
All those figures look great... depending on the price I might get this set
Instead of having Minimus Albus I reckon they could have recoloured the figure as Wheelie for this set, maybe with a new head
It was rumored in a podcast that also leaked 95% of the TR toys and liokaiser a full year previous so most likelyQuote:

So the deal with these Platinum sets is to pack one awesome repaint with a few other soso ones then?
I think that it'd be cool if Minimus Ambus were recoloured to look like Ultra Magnus' original core robot. :)
I just want the poster as well.Quote:

Given how big the poster is compared to the box, it wouldn't surprise me if Hasbro packaged it folded with deep creases ruining it:Quote:

More live shots from TFW and Seibertron.
Also it looks like Arcee doesn't come with her little guns either...
wow i have to hold off on buying LG Arcee from TRU until they reveal the price for this one.
they should have just included a puzzle that fits nicely in that box instead of poster :D
At first glance I thought Minimus Ambus was Daniel.
Seems like an obvious repaint choice.
Damn this looks good. I really only want Kup, since we have TR Blurr now. Hopefully Kup gets a new toy as well. It's great they're making these sets though.
This thing is gonna cost a FORTUNE :eek:
So did i! I thought that was clever and what they were going for until I saw a closer upfront shot. It's a shame they didn't.Quote:

Agreed. Just wait for Myer to overstock and then wait for the half-price clearance.Quote:
