Re: First wave of the Transformers Henkei figs are out The pre-order for the Classics/Henkei Prime trailer is up at TFSource and as expected it's gonna be pricey,
There's no doubting the trailer looks incredible but I don't think it's as much of a must have as the armor for Ultra Magnus as Henkei Prime kicks ass anyway whereas UM was kinda dull without the upgrade.
Right now I'm wondering whether I'll bother with it because £70 shipped in UK money for a trailer and a few guns is a LOT and I think I'd sooner put that much cash towards getting the MP-04 Prime/trailer set.

Defender ( Springer ) looks incredible,I hope they don't run into any problems with licensing due to the obvious similarities with Hasbro/Takara properties.

That's probably it,and a good thing too as it'd suck of they got hit with a "cease & desist" because their products are IMO better than many of the official ones and it's clear they actually give a crap about the quality of the final item which I don't think can be said about much of Hasbro's recent output,particularly in the area of paint apps.

Re: First wave of the Transformers Henkei figs are out Here's a few pics ( sorry about the quality ) of Red Alert and Smokescreen along with the other characters they share molds with,
The shade of red on both isn't as dark in person but is still very nice,the difference in quality between Hasbro and Takara's paint apps is very evident with Smokescreen's car mode and all of Red Alert's decals are pretty much flawless.
The Lamborghini mold is IMO the best of the modern versions of the G1 Autobot cars and and whilst not quite as good the Nissan 350Z one isn't too far behind it.
Red Alert & Smokescreen are the last couple of regular Henkei releases for the time being but I hope it returns once all the movie stuff is done.
