In-Hand Images: Takara Tomy United EX Jet Master Prime, Plus Translated Bio

Motto: "I ain't got time to bleed!"
Weapon: Gattling Gun
Japanese toy blogger Alfes 2010 has posted a nice gallery of Takara Tomy's United EX Jet Master Prime set, their take on Hasbro's Skyburst Power Core Comber five pack. Click any of the images below to visit the full gallery.

Additionally our fellow fans over on the Allspark have posted the translation of this set's bio:

It is the 21st century. The never-ending war of the Transformers had once again shifted its stage to outer space, and it seemed as if a moment of peace had returned to the Earth. Yet even then, the Autobots were preparing themselves for the possible threat of a Decepticon attack, working together with the scientists of Earth to develop new armaments.

The system known as “Power Core Combination” was a new method designed to allow one Autobot to combine with four drones possessing a range of abilities, forming artificial limbs around the “core” of the Autobot’s body. The prototype Energon Matrix installed within them would regulate and unify this power, effectively creating a new warrior. The first candidate for the process was an Autobot born on Zone. A covert operations specialist who had become recognized for his stealth capabilities, upon successfully combining with the drones and achieving Prime Mode, he was given the codename “Jetmaster.”

It was the first day of field testing. Combined into Prime Mode, the sight of Jetmaster effortlessly defeating the training Novabots evoked recollections of Optimus Prime’s might in battle with the Decepticons.

“Not bad! This power puts me right up there with Optimus! I was right when I figured you Earthlings knew what you were doing.”

Jetmaster’s cheerful banter seemed forced as he tried to mask his actual amazement.
“Enough sneaking around, already. Any ‘Cons show up, I’ll take the lot of ‘em down myself!”

The development team marveled at the success of the project…
“The results of the experiment are just as we’d hoped. But knowing the Decepticons, I’m concerned that this power may be too great for them to overlook.”

As Professor Chase spoke, he considered the grave situation that could result from a single error in the use of this immense power, and felt a moment of uncertainty pass over him.

It really looks nice a single, unified color scheme. I wish they'd done this in the first place with the US versions!

:lol: the only one I bought was the one with the uniform color scheme (the Dinobots).

These are still a pass for me. The limbs look like crap.

Really? Seriously?? So we're trying to pull in the little girls, now? What's next, they all settle their differences over a tea party?

And I still think this is the dumbest shit Haz-broke has ever come out with. Do they really expect us to take this seriously? Do they have any idea how hard it wold be to split up your concentration between four drones, all doing four totally different things, and the person you're fighting in front of you? It's the total reverse of the Gestalt problem where, instead of combining five minds into one, you're splitting one mind in five directions.

And those limbs even look stupid. All of them. You'd think they could at least make them look nice, but I guess that required too much imagination on their part. The only thing I like about this is the fact that the color scheme reminds me of The Blue Angels. And that's it.

Not saying I like it "a lot", but....... why does Takara (Japanese) believe uni-color can sell but Hasbro (Americans) believe not?

I suspect Hasbro wanted the drones/vehicles to look more realistic due to this line being closely tied with the movieverse. Takara is in the Japanese market where it's still OK for toys to look like toys and they aren't marketing these as part of/an extension of the movie lines. It's under United for them, so anything goes.

Haa. Wow. I'm the total opposite! I love the unified color scheme... and with these being robots (not humans), multi-tasking would be an option. (Just like my computer doing a few tasks at once.)

Oh yeah. TransFunctional... you gotta shift your hate over where it belongs. This is from Takara, not Hasbro.

No surprise that the Japanese storyline sounds a bit odd over here. I'm watching Masterforce, and all of the Transtector and super powers controlling rocks, etc -- comes across a little weird. But it's a different culture over there. I'm sure our plots and movies seem odd there, too.

I'm just appreciative that someone took the time to translate this for us. :-D Cheers.
