Third part company Newage Toys, via their Facebook account, have shared images of the updated prototype of their XM-2 Duel (Masterpiece Scale Dark Of The Moon Megatron).
This is the second Masterpiece scale figure by Newage following their DOTM Soundwave. Newage have shared information regarding the changes and improvements on this mold:
- The robot height is 31 cm.
- Based on your feedback and suggestions, we made the robot head bigger and lowered his shoulders.
- The joints and flexibility have been improved.
- Its accessories include a cloak, chains, a riffle and a green elf (Igor).
- The riffle and elf can be stored in the oil tanker mode.
- The robot mouth can be open.
- The tires are made of rubber.
- The paint will be the worn-out style.
- Customers who pre-order XM-2 will get the upgrade kit for XM-1.

I was really close to finally buying a Desperado, but I may wait and see how this one turns out…

Wow!

This was a prototype for so long I legit forgot this was even going to be painted. Newage is gonna kill it.

Another three years and they'll give us a shot of the middle of the truck!

Coming a long really nice. The really questions are when are they showing bot mode pics and when will he be released. I think he will be released this year around fall time so like October or November.

I already have the Prime 1 statue on the way. Won't hurt to add this one too

I love na for not making this bump futile, paint looks awesome

Looking great so far, so long as it’s durable like their soundwave. I’m not sure how down I’d be for a great paint job that rubs off.
Anyone have any experience with weathering from Newage and it’s durability?

Excellent, looks like the perfect mix of green-brown we saw onscreen!
Damn the paint job on this is looking excellent, and always a relief to get an update – and so the wait continues

Really need to see that bot mode

Can't the mods, like, put up a message that says to NOT ask for information when there's been no updates? When you enter the boards or smth
KillorKitten
Got my hopes up that there might have been an update, but no, just someone asking this old question.

Eh I would say both are on equal grounds. Every flaw UT has, this does better. For every flaw this has, UT does better.

The trailer is fused to the cab, both versions do some things better or worse, but Duel's alt mode does indeed look better
hthrun
There's an opportunity for an upgrade kit if any company is willing to take it…

Absolutely true, such a shame UT ran out of witchcraft when it came to designing the trailer and front grill!
