Don't worry, it's coming. Along with the blue repaint I'm sure. I hope they don't make a commemorative "Safety Megatron" lol.

I thought blaster was coming since they already have the steeljaw mold but stopped with educated guessing since TT uses their own weird logic with releases. More likely we will get a slightly re-tooled bumblebee in theform of cliffjumper to maximize profit on an existing mold maybe coincide with safety megatron

Or the vanette in black or green...

Got my MPM-5 Barricade from Primecron today (TRU.ca won't ship that one to Quebec) and indeed there's no French on the box, unlike MPM-3 and MPM-4. This likely means Quebec will never get Ironhide and the figures that may follow.

I've seen the Warbotron Computron on deep discount sale at various places the past week. Anyone know something I don't?

Lately I've been wondering if Takara would ever release a blue version of MP-21 to represent Glyph. Too obscure?

[DuG]

They could do so many different repaints of it, blue, white, green, silver, etc... It’s easy money for them but I’d hate to see how much they would charge given their prices lately.

probably getting rid of old stock. warbotron stopped making anything after that figure.
I haven't heard of any new 3p computron announcements if that's what you're thinking.

Yeah, I was wondering if any announcement was made or will be made. I remember people selling their Fans Toys Quakewave shortly before Takara announced MP-29.
