New Henkei, MPs and GT-Rs (?)

[Tober]

I just experienced my first multiple toygasm.. that BINALTECH GT-R and Macross Frontier VF-25S are porno for technical fans

It does seem kinda weird that they would release two Convoys so close together but trying to figure out Takara's logic always gives me headaches. The Dodge Ram was intended by Hasbro to be someone else (Ironhide(?)) however due to the expense of the mold Takara insisted on it being Convoy. I don't care what they call it - if I don't like it I rename it. :P Arcee for example will become Legion arter a transex change - consisting mostly of painting her pink bits black.

Thundercracker is predictable but necessary.

Yup the VF-25 does look really nice which surprises me since Bandai have never done Valkyries well (although the 1/55 VF-1 does hold some charm). And its in perfect scale with the Yamato 1/60 range so I'm absolutely stoked! Oh, and the GT-R looks hot too (more excited by the Valkyries though).

Yea, can't wait for those 25th anniversary jetfires from bandai.

looks like deluxe scale alternators. Awesome. I will buy.

Also henkei deluxe cars look heaps better than the universe classics counterparts.

Sunstreaker is actually painted and not just a bland yellow plastic

[kup]

Wow! They are chromed!

That confirms it 100% Its Henkei all the way for me!

I also like Sunstreaker more G1 lemon yellow rather than the cheap @ss Hasbro recycled plastic yellow.

Love that MP Cracker!

I am not sure who the BT will be, the head seems a little strange. Looks like a 'con.

Wow! I can't wait!

Woah. The GT-R's robot mode looks awesome.

Like Kup, I'm definitely going Henkei all the way, but I don't think I'll be able to resist local Universe figures if they are out months before. I must work on my patience and self-control.

Yep, I'm with you on this. I'll pass up all the store ones here and get those instead. I'm just not too sure of the large figures though, I might just get silverbolt as he's the closest to the original G1 figure. I'm starting to not like onslaught as much anymore, and powerglide, errmm, I dunno, the chest engines still put me off.

The bt wouldn't be that "star convoy" fellow would he?

Those new Henkei cars are a must get. The proportions on the GTR look fairly good, really like how the doors sweep upwards. Definitely silver and black for this one even if I have to do it myself.

Unless you're joking you're going to be waiting a very long time, or you know something I don't

Quite a few different companies are going to have to put their grievances aside for Jetfire to be re-released.
