Titan Class Metroplex Additional Images!

05.13.2013 – Its four months away before Titan Class Metroplex reaches retail stores. Previously images from Takara Tomy’s TF Yuki and the images from Hasbro that was reported other has been quite raising some question about the colors and quality of the figure including the actual size.

There were already some disappointments when Takara Tomy revealed to be bringing the figure out with two of Metroplex’s signature rifles while Hasbro is providing only one. But no matter the sheer size of this figure still haunts Fortres Maxmimus owners that it won’t be the biggest Transformers once this comes out.

Beast Hunters Predaking

Presenting the Voyager Class Predaking, leader of the Predacons from the new Transformers Beast Hunters series.

Predaking's wiki actually has a quote from him going "My armour is like tenfold shields, my teeth are swords, my claws spears, the shock of my tail is a thunderbolt, my wings a hurricane, and my breath death!"

Too bad Ultra Magnus kicked his butt and he had to retreat without having killed Wheeljack and all he could do was growl when Starscream made a snide comment about his failure.

Quite an inglorious debut for, as Shockwave put it, "The Ultimate Autobot Hunter"

Though I suppose Predaking did kick Optimus Prime's butt so badly that the Hammer wielding Ultra Magnus had to be introduced. (I swear if they use this to introduce a Rodimus Prime, someone will die).

Reveal the Shield: Chopsaw!

05.04.2013 – It’s obvious that Chopsaw is a straight repaint/retool of Brimstone which was originally released under the Dark of the Moon toyline.

There was no other difference besides the colors that make them unique to each of their own.

Released under the Reveal the Shield subline for the Generations series making this character exist in the G1 universe.

But there was no other media to support the character’s to entire existence in this timeline.
