But that mould looks to have nothing on the original Transmetal Primal mould.

I think most of us realize they are mock ups. The disapointment comes with the poor choice of molds for the 'non-classics' figures.

For example, the 10th anniversary BW/Cybertron molds chosen are average to ok at best for example. For those wanting 'United' versions of Warpath and Windcharger (and pal) then that's pretty good.

If they do decide to go with those moulds, I agree "Bugger that!" they're crap!
But I'm still not sure that these pics are even Official Mock-ups as we've yet to receive anything from Official channels on the matter, just supposed information.

@Lord_Zed: I hear you man.

Aww, I thought they looked cool. Especially the Cybertron versions.

I agree with you there, I quite like 'em.

Courtesy of Seibertron.com, Chara-Net have provided some pictures of some of Takara's upcoming products, in this case some updated United Mock-Ups and a Live Shot of the Windcharger and Wipe Out 2 Pack:

With these new mock ups, and pricing .. I don't think I can be a completest at all with United anymore. I simply do not need to pay 5000 Yen for figures that Hasbro sold as Deluxes in a line that used to be awesome!
