You know the drill, around this time every month new Japanese hobby magazine scans start to make the rounds, which are followed by the full versions a few days down the road. This month is no different, but these first look scans bring us our first real images of Takara Tomy's Transformers Prime Arms Micron AM-33 Darkest Megatron and AM-34 Jet Vehicon General! As many have speculated these versions have been repainted to match the last episodes of Transformers Prime Season 2. Megatron features a repainted right arm resembling the transplanted Prime arm he used to wield the forge of Solus Prime. He also comes packed a redco of the Dark Matter Calibur Arms Microns. Jet Vehicon General features a silver deco seen in the final episode of Season 2. Check out the image below.

DMC v.2 looks pretty great, it's nice that it's one consistent color. No interest in Darkest Megatron personally, but it's nice that they made it! As for JVG? OHHH man, that looks amazing. I can't wait for some clearer pictures, I mayyy have to break down and finally get a Takara mold for myself.

Oh man... time to troop build these Jets again? Decisions..

And I thought I had my AM list all set out in stone.

Oh well. Thank you for giving us Prime-Arm Megatron and Starscream's Armada, Takara.

It's hard to tell from the quality, but it looks like the Jet General had a leg retool, maybe actually locking in place?

It looks a little too "off white" for me. I was hoping it'd be more silver.

I preordered one. Unless some better shots turn up in the next sample, I think I'll stay at one.

I suspect that's the lighting in the picture. I'd bet that it'll be pure Takara white plastic.

What's the deal with the white "Jet Vehicon General"? Non-canon repaint, or future BH cannon fodder?

Did you watch the season two finale? They were in the entire second half of it.

So how many voyager Megatron's does this make vs. voyager Optimus from both Takara and Hasbro?

[Sabrblade]

AM-33 is apparently named "Final Battle Megatron" and the redecoed Dark Matter Calibur is the "Dark Unicron Saber".
