So I was on YouTube to look at the video review for AM Prime when I saw this and a series of others off to the side and I thought to myself...okay some TF marketing through J-pop music group.
It's entertaining to say the least but I wonder if this is a sign of things to come for future TF lines. What do you fans think of all this?
Oh and for some of you fans try and keep your hormones on ice!

Are we supposed to believe that 15 year old Japanese girls like Transformers toys?
Is that the market audience they are aiming for?

It worked (kinda) with Kiss Players
Top 5 Priorities:
1) BW Neo X-7 Elphaorpha
2) BW II VS-18 Powerhug vs. Autocrusher
3) Universe 2003 Night Slash Cheetor
4) RiD Landfill (regular, not the yellow)
5) BW Convobat (red) & Megalligator (purple)
Also looking for any clear Arms Microns, like Shadow (Gora & R.A.), Hellflame and Shining (O.P. and R.A.).

Oh I think I know what this is, this is a segment of the Japanese version of Prime, along with the targetmaster shorts, apparently they are pop icons in Japan and in these segments serve to educate you on TF history.
Hey visit my
Webcomic!
Also, check out my sorry looking little
blog!

It might be more believable if the girls were more masculine on the gender spectrum. But cross-dressing isn't exactly widely accepted yet on Earth, sadly.

I suspect they're marketing to 15 year old (and younger) Japanese boys
.
It's just like our beer commercials here in the US. They always show pretty girls, but they are not marketing the beer to women
.

I'm guessing they will move forward with more episodes focusing on some
.
