Fresh from the floor of the Wonderfest Summer 2016 are some great new display shots of the TakaraTomy's Diaclone Reboot line from TagHobby and Amiami! Up first are the Powered Suits first revealed in proto-type grey at the Tokyo Toy Show, which now appear to be in the final stages and in color. There are varying types and colors apparently, but what we know for sure so far is that they are being released as "System Set A" in red and "System Set B" in blue, each with a Dia-Naught pilot and a drop ship container (and it looks like they can attach to Dia-Battles in jet mode). Next is an 8-pack set of Dia-Naughts, though colors may vary as early store solicits showed them as yellow, red, and black, while at the show they are black and blue. After that is a Powered Suit Armored Ground Transport, which can hold multiple Naughts and Suits. Next up is what seems to be a remold of Dia-Battles V2 which has some brand new armaments. And last but certainly not least are some official images from TakaraTomy themselves of the aforementioned Powered Suits. Keep scrolling to see the slew of images, and stay tuned to Seibertron.com: home for the best Galleries and Conversation around!

Oh I hope those little guys aren't too expensive. I'm not huge into diaclone but I'd like some of those little mechs for some human forces for my transformers.

Freaking love the aesthetic of these things. Like a Gundam-ized 40k dreadnought or something. I really hope they'll be less than fifty bucks or something cause they are sweet.

As of right now they are up for Pre-order at BBTS for $40. A little steep considering the size, but whatcha gonna do?

Sheesh!!! $40 for just one?! It says set and I was hoping for 2 or 3! They're like two inches tall. Granted you get some accessories but $40?!

Guess my scout human alliances will do as human forces still.

Ya. I'm gonna wait to see what AmiAmi and the like have to offer before I pull any triggers.
And I'd guess these guys are about the size of a Gen Legends toy.

If you haven't heard, Diaclone, the grand daddy of the Transformers franchise has been thrust back into the spotlight by TakaraTomy in a new line. Their next figures slated for release are the Powered Suits, namely Set A (red), Set B (blue), DA-05 (2-pack yellow/grey), and Cosmo Marine Version (2-pack military colored). Thanks to TakaraTomy's official site, we have some new images of these Powered Suits and are given some insight to their capabilities. They all appear to come with a Dia-Naut (human driver) and a Raid Chamber (container for the Powered Suit). Also they have a variety of different modes including the standard Maneuver Mode (bot mode), Integrate Mode (to combine with Dia-Battles), Hangar Mode (compact for Raid Chamber), and more. What do you think of these little fellas? Let us know and stay tuned to Seibertron.com: home for the best Galleries and Conversation around!

COOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL! With a capital K!
I already have the blue one on pre-order lock down, but this yellow one now has my eye as well. A two pack you say brother Jak? To the AmiAmi cave!

Edit: thanks for the link you sly dog! ;)^

It's cool to see this reboot progress beyond a one-time thing that was their DiaBatles figure.

It's not my thing, but it's nice to see.

I'm really tempted to get at least one. Mechs like this are my jam.

So, it was a little confusing trying to post this. The red and blue are up for pre-order everywhere, separately. And BBTS has the yellow and (seriously is that grey?) up for pre-order as a 2-pack, and that's the first official anything I've seen on those two. And the military greens are shown together on the TT site, while the red/blue are separate, leading me to believe that the commandos are also a 2-pack. But the TT site doesn't show the yellow/whatever in any official capacity besides "background".

So, yeah. You follow? Cause I barely do 8-}
