Just saw these at Kitahon-cho 7-11 convenience store in Funabash, Chiba Japan. Contrary to a recent law concerning companies not being allowed to blind-pack "free" figs that come with sweets, Takara-Tomy have bypassed it by not having sweeties with them! I didn't see any "chase figs" either. Also attached is TRU Japan, Funabashi Lalaports and Ueno Tokyo Tamashiroya's Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen displays. |

');document.write(' | ROTF : Supreme Devastator pic, text, and video review
So here's the text review, while I wait impatiently for youtube to finish uploading. Pros: he's a monster, huge! about 13 ½ inches when hunched over. Great sound chip (in mixmaster) he says a few lines of text and sounds while in Devastator mode... Cons: Really weak vehicle modes (pretty much blocks of plastic). Little to no paint apps (hightower is solid yellow). Sorta "back heavy" (mixmaster is heavy). Read the full review here. |

 "Vansch" of the HK-TF forums has posted a few shots of a never-before-seen Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen Arcee figure. Unlike the previous figures we have seen before, this version actually has feet with wheels located above each of them. The figure also seems to have a full body, rather than the hollow-behind-the-chest-plate design the combiner motorcycle versions embody. Other iterations of the character include the Deluxe version and the one packaged with Human Alliance Skids. |
