Yeah, those are Takara release dates - BBTS have had pre-orders up for these for a while, but with no character data or pictures.
....which leads me onto this: why the hell are Hasbro (who will doubtless be ahead of Takara on release dates) keeping the release dates quiet?
I'm guessing it'll be mid-late September (in step with the retail release of the movie), but why keep us in the dark?
Most people, like myself, will probably change their BBTS preorder to Hasbro's version, depending on how the final figs look, and leave some online retailers with loads of over-ordered, late Takara stock....

No, It's Dylan Gould, but maybe in Japan he's named mr.cruel?
Anyway, that armored prime looks leader sized. If so, we may (Crosses fingers) Be looking at this line's leader prime. so far we have sentinel, bee, and ironhide, megatron and shockwave are on the way, so prime needs a new leader release in the us, but with that new vehicle mold, it may be easier to transform, for those who complained.
I see it happening, but with that, we might have to say tata to a US Released jetwing....
All just speculation.

Some sites have the tendency to mistranslate Japanese kana rather badly, so I wouldn't think too much into it. So far Japan has kept all American names.

Look, your preaching to the quire bud, but hasbro won't turn out a quarter of that stuff you just mentioned.
I wan't a PROPER third bike sister to combine with the other two, all constructicons as well, pretty much EVERYTHING you mentioned, plus that quadraped dumpster trash truck dude from DOTM, as a sizable voyager.

I don't get the HA Soundwave, why a Cruel something figure? There are enough characters in the movie that they can include why must they create one?
I'd rather see them include Patrick Dempsey's character.

We already know its a leader, but as of right now its a Japan Exclusive, but it is still not confirmed, so lets hope fora US release.

Look Hasbro i understand if you want to make Spacecase, Bludgeon, and others... but dont label them as Dark of the Moon or other movie verse lines... it irritates me.
It's not uncommon for Hasbro to make figures of transformers that weren't in the shows or movies. They've been doing it for as long as I can remember, even back in G1, though some of those ones, instead of show/movie apperances, made comic appearances. It's part of the line.

That isn't the alt mode that's actually the Stealth Force made! That mode still looks amazing either way!

I understand that... but my point is Hasbro should focus on movie characters that are actually IN the movies first.

On a side note though I really am crossing my fingers for Leader Shockwave. This MUST happen!!!
