    Default Dark Steel/Dark Iron - Beast Wars Quickstrike Homage

    Nice. A truly worthwhile use of the Sideswipe mould:

    Edit by griffin:

    This will be a Wave 5 release by Hasbro, called Dark Iron. It also seems that TakaraTomy will release it, but as Dark Steel, but as a store exclusive/incentive at Bic Camera stores in Japan.
    Pre-orders at that store begin August 16th, to be released September 23rd.

    Damn that's an awesome custom. Just goes to show that even something as unlikely as a BW figure can get some great Classics/Movieverse treatment.

    As I said in the group chat, at least they painted the mould this time... Looks stacks better than lat grey.

    I didn't notice the new head before, that's always pretty cool!

    Also because this is BW related, inb4 Husty.

    It's not even a custom, it's a Wave 5 Movie Deluxe/Japanese Bic Camera exclusive.

    This was probably the best of the new movie toys they showed us at BotCon IMHO. All the pics plus the 'post movie' reveals should be available after this weekend.
