First Edition Prime with Targetmasters
another angle Panic not, my friends. We WILL get another crack at him... and it may even be better, since it seems to be remolded to accept 5mm posts (which lets you mount Targetmasters all over him.) I'm pretty sure this is also our first clear pic of the targetmasters themselves (not just CGI mock-ups). They are clearly Cliffjumper, Bumblebee, and Prime's weapons. I must own this.

QUOTE(Treadshot 2.0 @ Jan 30 2012, 01:08 PM)  Ok, I didn't have a huge desire for that Prime on his own. But if I can put one of that Minicon on each shoulder and do some color touchups I might just pretend he's PM Prime... -ZacWilliam, I want to see the minicons as bots now, non CGI...

Sometimes toys on display at toy shows end up never being released. Just ask any collector of Bandai's SH Figuarts.
Either that or it was just a customized display piece to show off the Mini-Con gimmick, but that wouldn't really explain the additional white stripes... -------------------- Being part of any fandom is fundamentally embarassing.

We've known about this guy since before we knew the weapons were Mini-Cons:
http://www.allspark.com/content/view/9843/20/ So while the questions about the weapons have been answered, Optimus is still a bit of a mystery. -------------------- |

those new minicons are totally more coherent weapons than "tiny robots planking on Optimus."

Indeed. More like Targetmaster partners than Minicons. I like them a lot.

Yeah. I hope we see a US release for the Targetmasters, but I can't really picture them being released on their own, and I'd hate to see it be one of those "store exclusive bundle with a redeco of a toy you bought a year ago" kind of deals.

I thought we were over Minicons. That Prime looks nice though because of the paint on him. What the US gets won't be anything close to that good.

"new." That's a PCC. And it's only one of them. So it's not "a bunch."

Eh. The other new silver one on his arm is still clearly a thing with legs sticking off the back
But by now people should know I never was a fan of minicons to begin with (IMG:style_emoticons/default/icon-waspy.gif) -------------------- -Click to view my Digital Portfolio- |

Curious: do you like Target/Head/Power-masters?

I wonder how the new Targetmasters will be released.
In a multi-pack? Individually as exclusives? (seems unlikely with new molds) Packed with other figures as a partner? All of them packaged with that Prime (I wish). -------------------- "The way YOU are built lends itself to similarly big weapons. Magnus by comparison is a girly man."--Bainreese

Don't worry, Hasbro made sure to cancel FE Optimus just so that can't happen. |
