Kinda funny that he's addressing this before they've done a western announcement. I guess that means a Target listing is eminent.

Well this was a Hasbro announcement and not a Takara one, so I guess they consider it fair game.

That's why I said "western announcement". Back when they announced Tidal Wave in Singapore last year it took them at least a month to acknowledge it outside of the event.

I love that like Bonecrusher with his messed up face, Brawl includes the arm severing. I just love that detail so much

I've said this before and I'll say it again: Optimus Prime 2.0 please! I passed on him because I didn't feel it did anything than the Leader class retail figure did so MB-11 is my stand in MPM until Hasbro does something better. And I know they can do better. Heck, Takara Tomy did better with their MPM release. But with Brawl being so impressive that he barely looks like he transforms (from the front anyway) in either mode I'd love to see what kind of amazing engineering wizardry they could pull off on a second try.

Sam Smith’s posts on MPM Brawl are up! We get lots of looks at the scale breakdown, development process, and 3D turnarounds!

We also get some insights on the color scheme, the tank in the film was painted with 3 different house paint colors, and Sam got the exact paint colors to use on the figure!

He is going to be a beautiful chunkster!

The original is much more thin.

Guess all that tank kibble must go somewhere, even for a MP.

Honestly think he looks better in toy form. Just filling out the arms really makes a difference.

The CG model there is also missing the arm weapons, which bulk him up quite a bit.

I love that Sam does these posts. There’s so much passion that goes into making these figures and it’s really cool to get to see some of that!

We already got a full video review! In Chinese, but still.

Looks awesome and the transformation does not look much harder than the original 2007 leader.
