Shockwave is supremely well built and great possibility. I don't care for all the added on gun bits
I don't think Astro train is out yet
I just ordered Astrotrain on Amazon though...

Thinking of picking this up, but it ships from China and I am worried about it being a KO... What do you all think? Should I pull the trigger?

Look at the recent feedback. 8/10 negative ratings were in the past month, which is a sign the seller has decided to start scamming. This happens pretty often with Chinese eBay sellers where they accrue good ratings for years before suddenly going rogue. Even if they don't have negative feedback but their prices are too good to be true, it becomes a gamble. Thankfully eBay is pretty good about refunds in situations like this.Thinking of picking this up, but it ships from China and I am worried about it being a KO... What do you all think?

Saw Astrotrain last week at my local TRU. The combimation of the price, the small size and the shoddy alt modes made me pass on it. I also don't really like the headsculpt.
Impactor is amazing. The IDW spartan head from the Amazon pack is perfect with Thrilling 30 Springer.I have it and think it's pretty damn sweet. The space shuttle mode is great. The details on his robot mode are impressive. Don't be fooled by his size; he's a quality toy for the price I paid on Amazon. You get a lot of add-ons with him like with Shockwave so I feel it justifies the price. Also, I don't understand what your complaint is with the alt-modes; both are really cool.
On that note, I'm actually really impressed with Impactor. I didn't even know who he was before I saw this Siege line figure, and he's quickly shaping up to be one of my favourites.

I wish there was a reasonably cheap way to get him in Spain, but alas.
Hope there's an oversize KO of it coming soon. the OS KOs of the Siege cars are really well done.
I finally got one of my most wanted a couple weeks ago when I bought Combiner Wars Megatron for $40 CISB. So damn awesome is this figure. I wasn't ready for the working tank treads!
And MP Hound is being shipped to shops as we speak. Hallelujah!
Do you guys think Hasbro flat out gave up on the MP line? Considering that TRU went out of business, the last MP didn't sell well and Hasbro is importing the Takara MPs (And slapping a Hasbro branded outer box over them), I feel the writing is on the wall.

It's funny how that just happens all the time. I've gambled and lost on a couple china scammers before but ebay is very buyer friendly so both times I got the money back without much difficulty. Both times good accounts with longstanding positive feedback and then one day it's scam time.Look at the recent feedback. 8/10 negative ratings were in the past month, which is a sign the seller has decided to start scamming.

Another indicator about the state of MP. Hound's description is "Cybertron Autobot Scout".
I believe his original function was just Scout. But Takara MPs are released internationally now so it doesn't surprise me that they would include Cybertron and Autobot in the description. I gave up on following TF message boards years ago, but based on the comment sections on the one TF related Facebook page I follow it seems like there's a subset of collectors that really have an axe to grind with the MP line right now.? What's wrong with that? Isn't that what his original tech specs said?
Couple retailers I know who seem to think the reveal is very soon. They're usually pretty on target, and with Blackarachnia seeing release it is about time for a new BW MP to be in the pipeline.
Forgot to reply to these, thanks!Takara tweeted "year of the rat" with a picture of Rattrap. Its hardly confirmation

After Optimus Prime turning into a baseball cap and a sneaker, I don't think there's any crossover Transformer that can surprise me anymore.
Actually, it seems strange now but not too long ago both Bumblebee and Shockwave were basically forgotten, and while we got a few vague Shockwave references Bumblebee was completely missing until the movie
