Are the eyes Metroplex/Trypticon compatible?

According to someone well connected on TFW, Robot Kingdom has already taken over 500 orders.

I am not surprised.
I would also speculate several of the HK stores who have it up for pre-order probably have several hundred (at least) ordered as well. It will be a popular item over there despite its size. Collectors are willing to pay for a decent figure they want no matter who makes it.

Edited Krayt's post above to replace the hotlinked image with some mirrored images, and added these details....

From the link below, images and details of the Head being removable, and having two faceplates - one normal and one damaged to replicate the floating severed head at the end of the 1986 Movie.

(can anyone see the video that is supposed to be at that link? I tried the page on two different browsers, and all I got was a blank rectangle where the video is supposed to be.)

I think Asian outlets got the same deal EB/Zing did - a price similar to America, and not needing to pay until its release in 2021... and it was probably available to all of the toystores over there, and not be exclusive to just one.

Works fine on my iPad....

The Hasbro Pulse page has added a video promoting the planet mode details (screen shots can be seen here), and another transformation video in colour this time, which is also on youtube embedded below...



DON'T FORGET - you only have a little over a week to pre-order this from Zing or EB Games in Australia.

(is anyone else who is planning to get this, NOT watching these transformation videos just so it doesn't spoil the fun of working it out... or do you think that you'll probably forget by the time it is released, so shouldn't spoil the toy too much)

Spike bands appear to be rubber.
