Thanks to Tomopop we get to see the follow-up to Kotobukiya's D-Style Optimus Prime which naturally is Megatron. The super deformed figure was on display at the Tokyo Model Hobby Show 2014. Megatron comes with three expressions, energon mace and small version of his alt mode.

A couple of months after seeing the prototype revealed, we now get to see Kotobukiya D-style Megatron in all his little evil deformed glory. Megatron comes with three different facial expressions as well as his energon mace and a little version of his own alt mode. Check out the images below.

Those faces are great! Especially the angry one.

He has too much adorable. Way too much. He's definitely worth considering.

Other than looking constipated in the pose in the 4th picture Megatron looks amazing.

First thing I thought was, that's what my toddler looks like when she doesn't get her way.
Mad, but still cute.

Why do the super deformed almost always have the best G1 head, and not the actual Masterpieces/Classics ????

@noctoro

Mostly for Transformation reasons.

Next up from Wonderfest 2015 is the stand dedicated to the D-style, multi-accessory, vinyl Transformers from Kotobukiya, featuring Optimus Prime and Megatron, plus the reveal of Nemesis Prime and announced upcoming Starscream! You can check out all the mirrored images, via Autobase Aichi, below.

Are you a fan of comical Chibi/Super-Deformed Transformers? If so today is your day, as Taghobby has reported from Cafereo Character Convention 2015 on Kotobukiya's newest D-Style Transformers: Starscream, Skywarp, and Thundercracker. Starscream may or may not be searching for Megatron's contacts. And the (hilariously frantic) remaining seekers Skywarp and Thundercracker will be in their own two-pack. The figures will be fully posable but not transformable, but it doesn't look like it will effect the "fun" value! Look below for the pics and stay tuned to Seibertron.com for all your Transformers News!

I'm not sure where/when D-Style Starscream will show up, but he's definitely not packed in with Megatron. D-Style Megatron just got released in Japan and costs the same as the previously released Optimus (so, single figure budget).

This is quite a reveal, however, and I look forward to hearing more news about these upcoming figures. Cheebs!!!

These things look so weird but so cool at the same time.

[Robogeek1973]

I never even HEARD of this line before this morning and now I need to have them all.

"We must succeed!"

These kits are really nice. I have Optimus and he looks surprisingly good without paint. Some parts are actually pre-painted and there is a sticker sheet for faction symbols. They used a lot of small pieces to make larger parts, I think Prime's head is made of something like 10 parts alone. Articulation is great as well, his hips even slide down so he can sit. I did go over him with a ultra fine tip pen (Sakura Micron 005 .20mm) and it made an even bigger difference in his look. I'd really like to see them do so me non SD models later on.

I'm working on a review of him, it might be up soon.

I'm liking that they went with Thundercracker's animated colors over his toy colors.

Fellow Seibertronian Emerje told us he found the first preorders for the Kotobukiya D-Style Seekers which include Starscream, Thundercrakcer and Skywarp.

AmiAmi has the first pre-orders I've seen up, all coming in September.

Starscream - http://www.amiami.com/top/detail/detail?gcode=TOY-RBT-3906&page=top

Thundercracker and Skywarp - http://www.amiami.com/top/detail/detail?gcode=TOY-RBT-3907&page=top

They really outdid themselves with the photos this time!

Emerje was right about those photos. Below is just a sampling of the slew of awesome photos these new listings provided, enjoy.

[Cobotron]

The "yelling" faces all make them look like toddlers fighting over the only shovel in the sand box.
But all the faces are fun and hilarious. If I didn't already have a bunch of MyClones from back in the day, I'd be all over these.

[Wheeljack808]

These are actually adorable and HILARIOUS. I may just get these.

[necr0blivion]

Preordered! Something about these cute little guys just melts my blackened heart. And of course, I'm cool with chibi.

[Robogeek1973]

I put together Megatron and still need to find time to put together Prime. I also need to pick something up that I can darken those open mouths with, so they look better than they do right now without any black.

The Seekers are fantastic, and I preordered them as well this morning at HLJ.

[gothsaurus]

So.... do these actually transform? I'm not seeing any robot bits or thickness under that airplane mode. Also don't see any creases where wings should pivot.

[no-one]

So are these snap together model kits like some of the other Kotobukiya kits? I'm assuming pre painted?

I have a few of the Megaman kits and they are pretty cool.

[fenrir72]

So adorably evil! Remembering the pilot episode 30 years ago......

Unfortunately Megs is already sold out

[MelRains]

Yes these are snap together plastic and no they are not pre painted. They'll require some paint to look exactly like the stock images. Most of these kits seem to use 3 or 4 different colors of plastic.
