I actually have best leg/feet transformations. It's hard to beat PRID Wheeljack and DOTM Prime. Did you see those sexy legs?

YES! I was actually tempted to get the Target exclusive 2 pack of Grimlock and Optimus, just to get the silver prime!

As I mentioned earlier, depending on your monitor quality. It isn't that brown in reality. Besides that, good luck finding one online (with the exception of Amazon Japan)

TakaraTomy designer Shogo Hasui just tweeted out some new in-hand images of Transformers Adventure Battle Grimlock. Battle Grimlock is an extensive retool of the Fall Of Cybertron mold released a few years back. Check out the images of Battle Grimlock with the rest of the RID cast we've mirrored below and remember keep your optics tuned to Seibertron.com for the latest in news and updates!

That scale is much closer to the show. And he looks great with them.

I must deliberately ignore this figure so I'm not tempted to buy him and all his Warrior scale buddies.

Its ok dude, Amiami is there for us (hopefully, if it sells out before I even get notice of it, I will be pissed). Do you have the mold, Cobotron?

Looks like this confirms that it is "Ground" Vehicon General instead of "Grand" Vehicon General.

I have a couple extra Prime Vehicons. I wonder if I can get the same effect by just painting one of them totally silver...

Just got an email from bbts my Runabout is being processed; nearly flipped, as I had just logged into my account and didn't see his pre-order come up, yet the page still listed him as on pre-order still... So I logged into my email, and there was that fateful email

How about some more TAV and TED reveals? The interestingly named Japanese Christmas Toy Trade Fair is being held in Japan and Takara surely has a table full of goodness. It has taken the opportunity to reveal TAV-33 Optimus Prime Supreme Mode (from the TAV 21 mold made exclusively by them for their market), which was previously hinted at with an unpainted prototype.

We also see what Takara has up their sleeves for their version of the Robots in Disguise Legion figures like Underbite and Megatronus. This might be the way to get Megatronus individually, unlike how Hasbro has him teamed up with an Optimus redeco as a Toysrus exclusive pack.

These are also the first in hand images of the slew of upcoming TAV releases which we finally saw earlier this week such as TAV Battle Grimlock, Supreme Bumblebee, Black Shadow, and Stepper. What is probably most interesting is that we see a stand in featuring the upcoming VS set featuring "origin" Drift and "Battle" Jazz and it seems this Jazz has a visor, just as the Stepper redeco has.

Enjoy the images found on Manta Web and Game Watch!

Well, I'm glad I waited for Optimus Suprime. He looks extra dope!
And looky looky, he comes with ALLLLLL the weapons.
