Speaking my language It's he's the classic black with teal, instabuy. Don't wanna miss out like I did with Nemesis Prime.
And it seems it's a mainstream release, given his ID nr.: G25. The latest are G21 Judora and G22 Hunter Arcee. Would G23 and G24 be Hunters Knock Out and Dreadwing?

I doubt the redeco would have a new head when the original did not.mooncake623 wrote:I will buy this because I'm a black prime collector. Any shot of a new head sculpt? This Leo Prime just doesn't look very prime to me...

aka "Dragotron Final Form" (最終形体 saishuu keitai?) Thanks ol' bean.
That only leaves G24. Come on, we're dying of curiosity here. "Dying"? Right, I'm calling Hunter Knock Out on that one.

Can't see it on the facebook page... Maybe TakaraTomy had them pull it because it wasn't supposed to be announced yet?

But I can't say I'm blown away by the execution.

It looks good for it attempts to do. It's just that the mold is still that of a pirate, and I just reconciled that in my backstories with my Leo Prime (thanks to Sharkticon Megatron). A second look-a-like will be harder to integrate, now that it's a different character (unless Hydra pulls another bunny out of his hat).

Nope, that's not the plastic that suffers from GPS. It's that new soft/flexible goldish plastic that's as solid as anything (no crumbling).
I think I will get this. That deco looks pretty good.

Sadly, Hydra's not the one writing the Go! bios this time (nor does he know who is).JelZe GoldRabbit wrote:Sodan-1 wrote:This mould? In black? Dual wielding katanas?

Are you serious? You'd rather have a piece of crap micron over actual weapons?

I'll take a transforming micron over a plain molded gun or sword any day. Especially if it's a micron I get to put together myself. More value for the money, in my book.

Looking at Kenzan's swords I've found a potential hiccup: no storage in Beast Mode. The swords have no 5 mm pegs outside of the handles, at least L.P. and Thundertron's longsword had them. Another strike for an otherwise good redeco.

The black lion gig is already taken by Gekisoumaru Kurojishi version.
It's just a one-on-one color switch, so getting him has no real priority. Unless I somehow acquired his Arms Micron Go, that shark-gun.
