Coloured prototype MP Hot Rod looks oddly lanky like G1 Rodimus Prime toy.
However, i think that's because the picture itself is distorted (I don't have an MP-22 to compare against the photo, but i think the MP-22 cab looks unusually short in the photo).

Sounds like MP Ultra Magnus is being reissued at the same time, to go with Hot Rodimus... and a Legends (Generations) Springer reissue (minor redeco), for a bit of a 1986 Movie anniversary theme happening (despite that movie coming out in in Japan in 1989).
It seems that TakaraTomy are commemorating Hasbro's anniversary of the movie.

Shockwave looks great, but a translucent light up blaster arm would have been really good. Sure cartoon accurate, but c'mon.Here's hoping for fist and blaster accessory pieces. Reflector and a mini gun mode shockwave would be really good inclusions.

Those prices look very good. 5600¥ for Hot Rod will come out to about $66 then add say $20-25 for shipping is pretty close to PC's first run at $85. Shockwave pricing of 11,760¥ is also pretty good, including shipping will likely be a bit above initial PC pricing but in line with their current asking price.
I'm waiting to pre order from NY once theirs are up. Shockwave looks amazing and I love Hot Rod's alt mode.

Yeah 2nd run PC looks over priced now when you compare to AE .
Luckily for me I had rewards points to lower it but given a choice now I will try ny
After checking what I paid I have basically just slightly cheaper than AE as I bought shockwave cheap but hot rod is expensive.
