I think it's safe to say that BadCube wants the fandom to look upon their War Dog "Warpath" as a figure that could quite possibly fit in with your Masterpiece collection. After posting comparison pics of both bot and alt modes with
virtually every single Masterpiece Phase 2 Autobot, from Optimus Prime through Ultra Magnus, it's clear that War Dog does in-fact scale properly and that he has some hugely impressive mass shifting involved in his transformation.
Click through to see all of the comparison pics for yourself and then to judge and discuss this figure's worthiness to join your Masterpiece collection.

Thanks to TFW2005 member
Hollywood Hoist for linking us to a new listing for Kre-O figures on
Entertainment Earth. The first wave of these figures are called Small Cube, which looks to feature a Ratchet and Prowl reissue of sorts sans the robot modes they originally were designed with. Also pictured in this listing is the Kre-O city line featuring two sets.
Check it out after the jump.

The third party group DX9 Toys has just revealed prototype images of their next project they intend on tackling: Masterpiece inspired Rodimus Prime!
The new images show off this third party figure as what appears to be a self contained Rodimus Prime, i.e. it does not transform to be both Hot Rod and Rodimus. For comparison's sake, this figure was photographed next to the benchmark of the Masterpiece line, MP-10 Optimus Prime, and they are able to stand eye to eye looking great together! TFW2005 member
unexpectedpanda was gracious enough to provide a digibash to show off what a possible color layout will look like. Finally the last image provided to us via TFW2005 sponsor Robot Kingdom, is of this third party Rodimus holding the Matrix of Leadership, which many of us will take note the hands seem to be an improvement over the less than popular MP-09 styled hands.
What do you think of the reveal? Hit the discussion link below to share some thoughts.

Here's a little something different for our "gotta have it all" fans. As we all know, Transformers are popping up in tons of different form factors. Action figures are the primary thing for most of us, but there is some cool, and sometimes weird, stuff out there. The folks at Funko and Mindstyle combined to create a line of Hikari vinyl pieces, which are inspired by old school Sofubi Japanese vinyl figures. They a minimal in articulation, feature cartoonish proportions, and in this Hikari line, have high end hand painted details.
G1 Optimus Prime and Bumblebee (along with Skeletor and some others) are featured in the line, and have gotten multiple repaints already. We got our hands on the
Entertainment Earth excluisve "Battle Ready" versions and have done up a quick photo shoot to show them off.
Read on to check out over 40 pics of them in "action"! If you dig them, you can
pick them up here!
