We have a couple of new images of Takara Tomy's soon to bee released Transformers Go! Bakudora courtesy of
TFYUKI. This redeco of Deluxe Ripclaw features metallic paint and a brand new head mold. Check out the newest warrior in the Predacon ranks below.

I like the colours of Ripclaw just fine but Bakudora looks neat to me as well. However, I'm not a fan of the black on the torso in beast mode.

These look so much better than the USA versions. I'm seriously considering picking one or both up to just represent the line (and get the little poster showing all the bots) since I'm planning to skip the entire lot of them.

I cannot believe how much better these look. I won't be picking up any BH Beasts, but these really look the part.
It's amazing what a deco can do.

Agreed. And the better head sculpts help too.
I'm kinda speechless. I can't believe that these wouldn't sell well — or better than the Hasbro decos — here in the USA. Are our children really such bright-color-grabbing troglodytes that they can't appreciate a good looking dragon anymore... or a decent robot mech sculpt...like my generation did in the '80s?
Seriously!?

Bakudora and Gaidora look badass stood next to each other. Although this shot has made me realise that Gaidora does possess similar, albeit metallic colours of Ripclaw. So that's a bit weird. Still wanting.
