TakaraTomy Updates: Arms Micron Optimus Prime and Bumblebee Official Images and New Campaign Microns Vector Oracle and Firebolt Announced

G'all darn want, want, want....

Not sure how I feel about the Arms Microns not being silver like in the show, plain silver Microns would look kinda boring, so I guess it's alright, kinda disappointed that they didn't give Optimus any red on his chest and forearms though, other than the shiny-ish, dark-ish red plastic they gave him, he's exactly the same as Hasbro's Optimus, as far as I can tell.

Just wanting those minicons that Prime and BB have. But I'll wait for the (hopefully) Hasbro release. Are there pics of the bot modes anywhere that I may have missed?

*edit*
Nevermind, I found them.

Vector Oracle is made of kryptonite

CP says, "Those are not microns, or minicons, because they do not have minicon ports that cause robots to morph like Armada minicons, etc."

Sorry it's not a direct quote, but I was scolded (in a nice, fun way of course) last night during the podcast for calling them minicons...

I really wanted to call them targetmasters but I was just going on what the Promo was supposedly saying. Either way, I still want them damn guys!!

BTW, Happy Birthday CP!!

wow, bee's gun is really big, isnt it? at least its bigger than id thought itd be

Judging by his name, Vector Oracle may be a physical humanoid form of Vector Sigma.

We have some new details regarding Takara's Transformers Prime Arms Micron line from the latest issue of Figure King by way of Autobase Aichi.

First, the Microns will come unassembled on sprues and feature translucent pieces that will somehow tie into a game to be revealed later. We also have the names of the Microns that come with the first six figures from the line:

• AM-01 Optimus Prime with O.P.
• AM-02 Bumblebee with B-2
• AM-03 Cliffjumper with C.L.
• AM-04 Ratchet with R.A.
• AM-05 Megatron with Golla
• AM-06 Skywarp with Baro

Next, the figures will feature less paint than is normally associated with Takara releases, but will come with stickers to add detail. Each figure will also feature multiple newly sculpted ports for the Microns to attach (we already some of these from the official images of Optimus Prime and Bumblebee that we posted this morning).

Update: Toy-World has uploaded the scans from this issue of Figure King. We get another look at AM-01 Optimus Prime and AM-02 Bumblebee, but more importantly we get our first shots of AM-03 Cliffjumper, AM-04 Ratchet, AM-05 Megatron, and AM-06 Skywarp. We also get some ideas on how the Microns can be combined into larger weapons. Also seen new images of MP-11 Coronation Starscream, the recently revealed Vector Oracle and Firebolt campaign Microns, Transformers Prime Cyberverse, and images from the Asahikawa Winter Festival.










Update 2: Cybergundam has added a scan of MP-11 Starscream V2.0 and Vector Oracle from Dengeki Hobby.

Got the Romaji of these names?

I have no idea what that means, just relied on Google translate and hoped for the best
