Takara Transformers Prime Arms Micron AMW-01 through AMW-10 Revealed, Clearer Images of AM-15 Darkness Megatron & AM-16 Jet Vehicon

Site sponsor Kapow Toys has shed a little light on the recently revealed Takara Transformers Prime Arms Micron individual Micron listings. Below we have images of AMW-01 through AMW-10. As you can see these are a mix of the Arms Microns included with the actual Arms Micron figures and new molds. AMW-01 through AMW-03 combine into a sword, while AMW-7 through AMW-09 combine into a shield. The Kapow Toys pre-order page can be found by clicking here.

They've updated their pre-orders for AM-15 Darkness Megatron and AM-16 Jet Vehicon with much clearer images.

Only one I want is AM04(the green triple barrel) and placed a pre-order for it on BBTS. :grin: He's gonna go with my 1st edition Bulkhead.

I'm getting AM-07 so I can have a good sword for my RiD Prime (it looks like it will work if you flip up his hand and put AMW-07 in the bottom of it.) I'm also getting AM-10 because I'm too cheap to buy Takara Soundwave.

..So, they're NOT the same figures that come with the Arms Micron Takara toys, but entirely different figures (unless you don't count the 4 repaints).

More things that might never make it out of Japan. Wonderful.

I wouldn't be surprised if the 'new' microns are all included in with the MA figs that were just solicited, but have placeholder images.

Kinda disappointed that they don't seem to be kits but completed figures.

I also hope that the rest of the Partner molds make it into this assortment down the road.

excusemeIneedtocancelmypreorderofsoundwave.

EDIT:
Okay, that's better. So happy they're selling them separate. $8 a pop is steep, but it beats paying $30-70 for only one paired with a toy you didn't want.

Is Takara known for Photoshopping their picks? This release of the scorpion looks sweet.

Oh, I hope that doesn't happen. As these molds would be less unique if that were the case. :-s

Same. I want Optimus' partner, but not sure I want to spend $60 to get it.

Actually, I have a feeling they're all repaints. We already have knowledge of 20 Arms Micron releases with only 10 out of the 21 Microns thus far properly identified.

I dunno. these Newly-revealed Micron molds look like they were designed specifically for their 3-weapon combinations while the ones part of the regular AM series look more like their combo weapons aspect was more of a bonus added to their resembling the weapons of their larger companion figures.

I shall be keeping my preorders.

I like them. I like putting them together. I think this is an interesting new way to collect TFs.

Someone needs to design a smartphone app to help figure out how the hell to determine which Prime toys one would want to purchase from which region, or at least compile a chart. :/

Are AMW-02 & AMW-03 supposed to be anything in their individual alt modes, and, if so what

And what the hell is AMW-01's "robot" mode? Some kind of insect?

AMW-02 is a hawk, AMW-03 is a Crocodile.

I can't tell what AMW-01 is though.

Anyone notice that EVERY animal-based Micron has one-eye, and EVERY humanoid Micron has two eyes?

AMW-01 might be a dragonfly or some kind of flying creature.

Yes, I can see that, but what do the hawk and/or crocodile transform into (other than a third of a sword)?

Looks to me like a butcher's cleaver and a 4 barreled gun, respectively.
