Robot head my bad.

Beast mode head, yes. I don't know if they mean beast head or robot head.
DracoPrimal
… are you referring to the beast mode head? I thought they were talking about swapping the show-face robot head for the mutant-face robot head… kinda hard to make that hijus face out of Tigatron's normal face.

I'd like to see a Vs set with Silverbolt. I guess including him with Black Arachnia wearing a Malibu Stacey hat would be an option. Not sure what that hat would be, but I'd at least like a hat. I wouldn't mind seeing another stab at the Transmutate fossilizer though. There are a couple fan modes that better approximate the proportions that could be a basis, plus accurate colors and maybe an accessory or two to better cement the fan mode into accuracy. Could also just re-release the Transmutate BAF from the BW 10th anniversary line too. Personally I'd prefer a fossilizer re-attempt, but honestly I'd take either.
They also haven't done Agent Ravage yet in this series. Or Tigerhawk, but that'd be weird.

Just take a paintpen to draw the black outline of the eyes on if that's what you're after.
Managed to do a great job on mine after a few tries.
DracoPrimal
Interested in how it ends up looking, please post pics when possible.

I want the Tigatron from Takara but I don't want the Blackarachnia. I swapped the legs from Buzzworthy and I'm pretty much satisfied on that version plus she has gold on the legs that was once black which makes the spider mode more kibble looking. I'd be swapping the Kingdom head on the Amazon body.
Starscream1997
I'd just paint the back of the head. Yeah ideally I'd want to take the head apart but I'm not sure that's even possible. I think the off white head can work since he does have white in some spots or I could paint it.
DracoPrimal
The entire head, probably so, but you'd have a big orange patch on your otherwise white (and yellow) tiger's neck. As for trying to swap the faces, I had the thought also, but never went to try and take the head piece apart.
Starscream1997
Can you pop off Tigatrons head? I want to buy the Amazon one and swap the head from my Kingdom one.

I would have appreciated more if we got two guns in one color plus one butt thruster gun
Ganon2099
Takara we appreciate your generosity
Fenrys
Yea, because the figure wasn't intended to have 2 guns, it's an extra that takara included for this release
groscas
i get that ,but still no storage for it when in beast mode ,only place for 1
Fenrys
It's so one can be used as a gun and the other can be used as his butt thruster without having to choose either or between the two
groscas
yes 2 guns ,a blue and a red .kinda weird, no place to store the 2nd one ,both are also identical
ambarmettatron
Yup, two.
Blot
Anyone gotten the set with Inferno yet? Does he have the two guns? Some in hand shots only showed one.
