Re: Transformers Prime First Edition Hitting Canadian Retail In The Next Few Weeks

I have not seen the show yet (a new dad so not enough time) but I am fated (doomed?) to purchase Soundwave no matter what, fortunately he looks fantastic in this series. Arcee looks great as well, wheeljack is nice, and megatron looks pretty good. The voyager optimus does look better than the deluxe. But myself I think optimus reached perfection at the takara rotf-leaderclass mold (excluding MP-10 optimus, which is also very kickass).

These new toys are looking fantastic! I cannot find one pic that I don't like at the moment. The TFA line now really pales compared to TFP line...

Re: Transformers Prime First Edition Hitting Canadian Retail In The Next Few Weeks

^darth cylon you are not alone.

On a seperate topic, does anyone know what the deal is with the TFP bumblebee/cliffjumper remolds they showed at NYCC? I expected remolds eventualy but not before the line had launched. I took a look at all the pictures I could find and the molds aren't simply updates but completely different conversions (and still deluxe sized). Anybody know anything about it?

Of course not. The only reason few people have mentioned these two (amazing looking) figures is because the topic is about the First Edition figures, which seems to be only BB, Arcee, DLX Starscream, the Entertainment Pack (Optimus, Megs and the kids).

Well the way i have read it in some people's posts in the various boards is that the First Edition TF Prime toys were supposed to come out in the TF Generations toyline. However that was postponed and hence it became the first editions. So the "funding" for the first editions were from the Generations budget.

Hence for the TF Prime mainline itself, there was a different budget for it and hence they had planned to redo the figures.

It's just that the timing has come out kind of strange now. Of course this is what i read so i don't know for sure.

On a related front, so TRU is suppoed to be getting TF Prime toys in soon so has anyone checked the computers at TRU to see if the stock is in transit?

Cool Re: Transformers Prime First Edition Hitting Canadian Retail In The Next Few Weeks

^YOBUSTER

hmmm... thanks for the info, I hadn't read any of that but I haven't really kept up with the background stuff for a while now. Makes sence I suppose, like the WFC toys coming out in generations to test the market (I hope we get a bigger selection from FOC).

Personally, from the pictures I think I prefer the first run molds over the "regular" versions. It is wierd to see a cliffjumper toy that isn't a repaint of bumblebee. Definetly buying preview cliff and bee and two terrorcon cliffs when they go on sale (one for customizing into a super messed up cliffjumper)

has anyone seen good pictures of the TAKARA versions of these figures? After the inconsistency of TFA I'd like to see the paint apps before I commit to the extra cost.
