    Default More Henkei coming

    http://www.tfw2005.com/boards/showthread.php?t=172379

    D-04 will be Ramjet. C-05 will be Skyfire.

    C-06 and C-07 have been listed but not named. Both carry deluxe prices.

    I honestly can't wait for the Ramjetl. The colours on Hasbro's jet mode are very flat. I think the chrome will be awesome. Skyfire is another I am very anxious to see. As happy as I am w/ Hasbro's one, I want to see just what they can do to improve what in my mind is already the perfect representation of G1 Skyfire.

    As for the two C-06 and C-07, my guess is 80% on Cliffjumper (w/ new head) and 50% on two-pack Prime. Both are due for September so that gives me slight hope these could be the new Classics 2.0 ones like Sunstreaker or Prowl. If they are, that'd be awesome b.c we'd get a choice as to whether we want it the Hasbro version or Takara rather than have to buy 'em later.

    I don't think there will be much of an improvement on Jetfire. Hasbro's release was pretty much spot on.

    Hasbro's Ramjet was also very well done and a good tribute to the original character so although Takara's paint application may be better, it will not be a great improvement like the first wave of Henkei.

    Like you, I am interested to see what Takara does with Cliffjumper. I would have a heart attack (in a good way )if they release one with a remolded head.

    Screw Cliffjumper & 2-pack Prime. I'm hoping against hope that they're deluxe versions of these:



    Maybe one day...

    Based on the C numbering, they look to be autobots. But yes, that would rock.

    I was a little disappointed, I thought this thread was going to confirm that Sunstreaker, Prowl, Powerglide, Octane and co were confirmed for the Henkei line. I forgot about the so far skipped Classics guys.

    New head for Cliffjumper might be a hopeful guess. There's no remoulding on any of the classics Takara released so far is there?

    Skyfire love it, if its anything like Jin's one, they need to redefine the lines. But i am hoping its more of a paint scheme and not so much chrome.

    They should make the unknown deluxe ,Skywarp. So He can stand out like starscream

    I hope they get the botcon molds and make dirge and thrust and thundercracker because that would be sweat and kick ass!
