Title: PS1 transformer toy

Just read that they're going to be releasing a toy PS1 that transformers into Optimus Prime. Apparently there will be PS2/3/4 variants as well. These look pretty cool, but are probably going to be limited to the Japanese market. Anyone thinking about importing one of these when they come out?

I'm a little surprised that Optimus isn't a SFC rather then a PS1.   Seems like it would've been more appropriate to go up against Mega Drive Megs.  I haven't thought of what would make a good PCE TF.  Probably won't pick him up unless he comes stateside.

At lest you didn't say rodimus prime


Hmmm other possible transformers....


I'd say instead of picking either autobot or deception pick a third the insect icons?....or maybe since the PCE had expansions make it a combiner like bruticus?

How about the PC Engine as a combiner of Raiden, though, they were all bullet trains, & not a steam engine like Astrotrain.  Or perhaps Soundwave, with Hu-cardicons of Rumble, Ravage, Frenzy, etc. etc.

I'd think it'd have to be Bumblebee.  Hudson.png
