Courtesy of the Autobase Aichi Facebook page and blog, we have some pictures from the Super Festival 65 in Japan. Held on April 27, the Super Festival 65 showcased toys from e-Hobbyshop, Kids Logic, and ArtStorm EX.

Check out the pictures below, including some neat shots of all three modes of Cloud Starscream, some of the upcoming Kids Logic figures, and ArtStorm EX Gokin Alpha Trion.

Cloud Optimus looks so good! nearly worth...half of what they're asking.

Curious about how much the Unicron head will be.

Be cool to replicate the Vok Unicron scene from "Other Voices" with both it and my Telemocha Convoy.

I just cant get behind that cloud line. It's Machine Wars all over again. But at least Machine Wars changed the characters colors to justify creating a continuity based on repaints. Im getting that Alpha Trion. Ill probably use him as A-3 and Titanium Saint as Alpha Trion in a different display.

It's really not thta much different from what BotCon/TCC redecos do with taking a mold from one character and giving it the colors of another character to turn it into that character.

That Starscream toy, for instance, could easily be something that's right up the Club's ally.

I gotta disagree. Botcon is giving you repaints that have been turned into characters that need an update or have never even gotten a figure. Cloud is giving you characters that dont need an update just for the sake of milking a mold. Not sure what "asian market" they are referring to because most serious asian collectors buy online and have been had those molds.

In recent years, yeah, but that wasn't always the case.

Some BotCon/TCC toys of the past have been redecos done for the sheer fun of it.

like Burns When I Pee Ginrai

Curious. No sign of Action Master Scorponok.

YOW, look at the size of that thing! Unicron's head is... pretty big. Way too big for me to consider

Starscream is either trying to be a creeper or he's grown a rather odd mustache.

that chibi hotrod is pretty damn cool.

Rodimus Convoy does look good
