Such a sucker from chromed accessories... if Amazon japan ships internationally, excuse the ignorance, I would definitely consider this.

FUUUU! Takara screwed us out of more accessories too. Amazon Japan only ships within Japan. :-(

Not necessarily, I was able to get the Amazon.jp exclusive ROTF Leader Black Optimus Prime shipped to me directly by Amazon.jp. But I think that's because is was listed as a DVD/BluRay that came with a toy.

Oh what the f*ck? Seriously!?!?

Awesome, but complicates my life.

Here's hoping the Energon Cubes will be pink!

I consider neither of these bonuses in any way essential. Especially clear energon cubes.

Once I see finalized versions of the cubes, I'm going to just make my own, or get my crafty friends to make them for me.

Cool, but I hate exclusives. I'm sure some 3rd party will knock them off soon enough. The existing Energon cubes look better anyway. Honestly, these look like acrylic storage/display boxes. You could probably find some in the right color and call them Energon cubes. In fact, perhaps that's what I'll do.

Perhaps these are supposed to represent the empty energon cubes that Soundwave produces from his chest in the G1 cartoon.

Screw exclusive accessories! MPs ought to come with ALL their damned accessories.

I really don't mind exclusive repaints, but accessories? Just pack 'em all in, guys.

Son of a b**ch!

But then again, I don't care for those pile divers and I'm pretty sure a 3rd party will make better cubes.
Or you know, Hasbro might include them.

I just created a Amazon.co.jp account (which was quite a task considering I don't know any japanese) and it does not ship to the US. Ah well.

Too true.

As for the Energon Cube, while I know why they're doing the "clear" pre-Energon Energon Cube, I think it's silly. And you know one of the repaints or store exclusives will have the proper pink Energon Cube. If I wanted a clear acryllic cube, I could've bought one from any number of stores.

The best Energon Cube accessories, IMHO, are the Unicron.com Energy Cubes, and those can have the option of either being clear "empty" cubes or filled cubes.

And I'm not just saying that because I also happen work for that site. ;;)

Ahh yes, those pile drivers look more like what I remembered from the show.

It does not bother me that they are not standard.

Hey, chances are that the eventual Hasbro release may have them.

Posted by craggy on June 14th, 2012 @ 6:20pm CDT

that is the sort of piledriver I was expecting with the main release. However, they've also put me in mind of something else...

will the Amazon.jp version of Lambor be MP-T1000?

I am sure that a Hasbro version of Sideswipe will include these piledrivers.

There's a button that says "view this page in English" ... Or at least there was a pop-up on mine.

To be fair we got something Japan didn't with Hot Rod, and MP Prime 2.0 is going to have all of his accessories intact. I think there's a fair chance Hasbro will include the bonus accessories.

And don't forget MP Grimlock. The Japanese were lucky to get an apron, bowtie, and tray of glasses. :lol:

While you're right about Hot Rod, what we didn;t get was THE OTHER HALF OF WINNEBEGO PRIME. It's not like Optimus who can run around bob-tailed and get away with it,(I think I just hered a geewuner choke and die when I said that) Rodimus Prime without his trailer is Hot Rod driving arount backwards. Sure,t he Targetmaster is great if all you wanted is Hot Rod, and if I'd seen him I'd have probably been happy with that, but the other half of the figure is largely useless.

lulz, Grimlock... though they did get King Grimlock later on.

As for Rodimus' lack of trailer, of course we missed out big-time, but my main point is that it's possible we'll get bonus accessories, because it's happened before.
