New Wave Of Takara Transformers United On The Way? Update: Mock Up Images Added

If true, very cool. Some puzzling names there. Would Takara finally release Cybertron deluxe Unicron in their market? That's interesting.

Thunder Megatron?

Primal?! Beast megatron?!

What's going on here? Maybe it's robot masters being redone. Axalon and "ark unicron" are very strange. I mean, are they ships, or what?

Who could Wingchanger be? Axalon, could he be pre Beastwars Optimus Primal? Thunder Megatron? Beast Megatron could be the Robotmaster T-rex. What about Ark Unicron? The deluxe tank Unicron?

HELL YEAH!!!! i lived at malaysia...so i think maybe i'll get this item faster....?

HELL YEAH!!! ilived at malaysia,so...maybe i'll get the item faster?

My guess


UN-23 Rodimus Convoy
Reissue henkei hot rod

UN-25 Thunder Megatron
"hero G2" Megs... the deluxe tank mold from classics.
(TFW 2005 reports this as Tank Megatron instead)

UN-27 Wing Changer & Decepticon Wipeout
(TFW 2005 reports this as windCHARGER instead, seems to fit better)
3600 yen is Voyager price, should be windcharger and his repaint, like frenzy and rumble.
TF wiki says wipeout is the name for the car that came with G1 trypticon


UN-28 Axalon
??? Im guessing skullgrin...

UN-29 Ark Unicron
Voyager price... Can't be Primus unleashed unicron, which was a deluxe

UN-30 Optimus Primal
Deluxe, Primus unleashed one?

UN-31 Beast Megatron
Deluxe, Primus unleashed one?

Looking forward to windcharger and maybe Axalon... whatever he is...

G1 Trypticon didn't come with a car at all much less one named Wipeout. He came with Full Tilt and Brunt which were both tank like vehicles.
The Axalon is the name of the Maximal ship that crashed on Earth. I seriously doubt that's Skullgrin.

Full-Tlit isn't exactly what you'd call tank like.

Put his gun turret on him and he's exactly what I'd call tank like.

Whoops, mis-read the page, "Wipe-Out arrived on Earth with Trypticon, who had been sent to directly attack the Autobots' Headquarters, the Ark. "

Some people on TFW2005 think it may be a repaint of hubcap...

I have a bad feeling that Wingchanger and Wipeout might be a recolor/re-issue BB and Starscrem

gavinfuzzy wrote:Some people on TFW2005 think it may be a repaint of hubcap...

Windcharger/Tailgate maybe. We haven't gotten a Hubcap figure (to even be repainted) since G1.

I ment that wipe out could be a repaint of HFTD hubcap ... or it could be another windcharger repaint, like the frenzy/rumble united pack.

I'd completely blanked on HFTD Hubcap! He's a brilliant little guy. I'd like to see him in Decepticon colors, that'd be really cool.

Seems strange that Takara would be releasing Hot Rod as a United figure just after they've re-released his Henkei version. I'm assuming it will have a different colour scheme, but it still strikes me as abit wasteful.

Can't wait to see what Warpath will look like. I've got Hasbro's figure but it's just never looked quite right for some reason. Haven't a clue who the rest could be. I'm trying to think of all the Generations figures that haven't had remolds announced yet.

Here's a thought: what if this UN-23 Rodimus Convoy is actually a Rodimus repaint of G2 Laser Optimus Prime? Rodimus does transform into a hulking truck in Transformers: Energon. Just a theory. Please don't hunt me down.

Just mock ups, but at least we know what molds they are using.

I'll pick up the Primal, Unicron, Windcharger and Wipeout, and maybe Axalon depending on the color scheme.

Well, I guess that settles it.

Still, Energon Sharkticon for the Axalon?

Axalon is Sharkticon? That's really gonna need to be a nice deco to get me to bite again. The rest, I kinda figured as much. Hero Megs, might end up replacing the green Classics version I already have for my G2 Botcon/Classics shelf. That Unicron is an odd mold. I'm curious to see what they do with it.

The mock-ups of Windcharger and Wipeout look awesome. I'll be so glad to finally get a Windcharger for a reasonable price, unlike the RTS one that I have given up on ever finding. Glad the repaint wasn't G1 style repaint of Tailgate since I just started repainting a HFTD Hubcap to make a Tailgate.

FINALLY! Some cool news. Yay for a reissue of that Beast Megatron mold, purple tank Megs and Windcharger! Day is made!

Damn, Axalon looks absoluetly boss. May be just me, but he looks great DEFINABLY getting him. Kinda digged the mold but never owned it, somehow it just... works.

But seriously? Deluxe primus unleashed Unicron at Voyager price?

BW prime/megs look meh, rodimus seems like the BIS one .

Maybe Hero megs would compliment G2 prime? (Still yet to find him)

Windcharger/Wipeout looks too plain for $50... might have to settle on the Ebay prices for regular hasbro RTS one.

At least takara starts using molds from other lines in their CHURUG verse

Courtesy of site sponsor Kapow Toys we now have mock ups, check them out below.

Sharkticon? That's an unexpected choice.

I'll be getting the windcharger repaints though, and heck, even that Hero Megatron.

I'll be getting the Windcharger set for the repaint, the Unicron since I never got it in the past, and the Hero Megatron. I'll be relying on iGear for my Sharkticon needs, and don't collect Beast era figures.

I see a lot of fail here. I like the Hero Megs with a more S1 beast wars paint scheme but the rest?

Not paying the normal 45$ USD united price for the Windcharger set either.
Plus it will probably be more like 65$, with how popular that Windcharger is.

I'll probably pick up Warpath, Unicron and Thunderwing.

I see no difference in warparth, but for thunderwing i think the colours are all lighter, and the green on his limbs are now black. Anyone notices any other differences? If not thunderwing's gonna be the united shelf-warmer.

good call gavinfuzzy @ Wipeout.

Btw, I skipped the Generations line except for Wheeljack and TT. So Warpath is getting to be verrrrrrry attractive in my wants list.

As for your statement about G2 Optimus, is that the Generations version? You mean to say there wasn't any in Singapore at retail?

Depending on final colour schemes I'll probably get Warpath and Thunderwing, but the rest strike me as weak molds dredged from the bottom of the barrel just for the sake of it.

If these are mock-ups then wouldn't that mean these aren't neccessarily the finished products?

I keep on looking back at the G2 Megs, and can't help but want that version. I guess I could always use an Archforce.

I agree Sodan. Weak choices indeed. If they'd released a United Skywarp..........now that would have bee awesomesauce!

What, Henkei isn't good enough?

And wow, I'm just amazed, especially with Sharkticon. I shouldn't have been though, because it had design elements from the Nemesis of the Beast Wars cartoon. And Thunderwing?! Why not Black Shadow, like it should be? Mind you all, most of them are figures that never saw regular Japanese release, especially Unicron, Deluxe Megatron, and the two BW 10th anniversary figures.

I'm keeping my eye on Thunder Megatron, and the two BW ones. Maybe Rodimus as well, but I'm gonna wait on final toys.

some of these look nice, but i dont see anything i really want

rock and roll for thunder megatron. i f'n love the neon G2 color schemes. BTW, wheres the yellow/purple repaint of Onslaught?

Milady JelzeGoldRabbit

I'm staying a way from those Ganbo henkei exclusives (for Y 12,000), I'd rather get myself a hard to find G1 fig I missed. I'm still kicking myself in the butt for missing the chance on the Classic Skywarp when he was SRP but buying one (the exclusive)is imho plain

I hope Hasbro or Takara will see the light and re-issue a figure that is a sure fire SELL over a bunch of figs that are hit or miss.

Come on Takara, Axalon over TT or Skywarp? Do the math!

Underwhelming...

Black Windcharger repaint looks cool, but I hope the regular Windcharger looks amazing if they're being sold in a set. Warpath could be interesting, but the Generations one looks pretty great in its own right. No idea why they'd even bother with that crap Rodimus deco.

*giggle*

TakaraTomy has upheld the tradition of not releasing exclusive characters, or characters that appeared as exclusives in a main line of roughly the same nature, in this case Henkei vs. United. Though I wouldn't be against a new United UC and SW (if they fix the QC issues) I'm gonna have to say:

And BBTS has them all on preorder already!

Following my standard procedures, I've preordered most of them and will be cancelling them once I see if I like their final decos or not.

Excited!

Thunder Megatron looks cool, and I'm digging the repaints of Optimus Primal and Beast Megatron. The rest... pass.

Is it safe to assume these will be released in the U.S.?

If anything, just the Megatron, and that's stretching it. If you look closely, Primal and Megs are still in their 10th Anniversary colors, as that's where the images are from.

@JZGR

you sure know how to make a man cry

But seriously, I'm not one to bellyache, but "anime" color style henkei Hotrodimus? could have done better with Rieje, and that horrid Megatron tank, heck, why not salvage the original Hero Megatron instead? Or better yet, the awesomesauce henkei Convoy. I mean, henkei Megs got the re-issue treatment. Sometimes their business decisions confound me.

Rumor has it that the Voyager Prime mold was used one too many times. I believe Shattered Glass Prime was showing signs of degradation.

So that's why.........

Thanks for that info milady JZGR (your name is quite long) , poor Optimus, a casualty of squeezing blood out of stone.

Thunder Mega what? Can't they find a better name? And that color scheme put me off.

Cool...this may be the only way for me to get the Windcharger mold considering how rare it is.

Yeup. That's the standard procedure for me as well. That's also why I keep giving BBTS my business.

completely disapointing
why use an energon/cybertron mould for starters? unicron doesnt look like the ark shuttle and energon sharkticon doesnt look like the axalon

tottally crap and serious disapointed

they could have at least TRIED and done something decent even if it only was a repaint - IE energon superion repainted as lio kaiser (given the tank leg and then another modded into drill horn) or even somert as simple as Diaclone Convoy or G2 prime as scourge or perceptor as his black ehobby version

these just seem all same, serious pass

Damn that Megatron Hero Mold. I despise that arm of his but I so want another one.

I need to see final colors before making a decision for most of them. Though likely the Windhcarger molds are a given.

I'd probably want to pick up Primal and T-Rex Megs if only because I don't own the T-Rex mold and I want another Primal from that mold. Its a great mold IMHO, the surfboard not so much. But in Transmetal colors with a chrome chest it would be pretty cool.

Repaints of old figures. Fine by TFCC standards, but I was expecting new molds from Takara.
