B.2 (ビーツー), Mach, not Beats (ビーツ)

It's a play on Bumblebee

And translucent Microns? Gimme! Along with the Shadow ones... :PRAY:

And I just noticed that the second prize is the Sound Stage, and third prize a golden Hades Micron, or that bat that comes with Voyager Megatron.

It looks like they're done with PCC mini-cons now. I guess that's good, there's quite an extravagant amount of AM ones to tackle.

By way of their facebook page Autobase Aichi has posted some in-hand images of the Shining Arms Micron B.2 that was given away at Takara's booth at the International Tokyo Toy Show. The figure is a translucent version AM-02 Bumblbee's Arms Micron B.2. Take a look below.

Oh Jeez. Weak, wimpy, transparent plastic is not good for figures the size of Arms Microns. Heck, my first Bulo's leg broke during assembly, because there are parts that have to be wedged into very tight spaces, and tiny plastic don't like that.

Remember the previous news posts about the Tokyo Toy Show Arms up or Arms Micron campaigns?
Well, here is a new bit of information regarding those, yes we're bringing you news about something you can only get if you're Japanese child!

The second campaign or challenge asked its contestants to customise Arms Microns for the chance to win something, thanks to an update to TakaraTomy's website we now know what they can win!
And it is a Lucky Draw golden Dark of the Moon Voyager Class Sentinel Prime.

Stay tuned to seibertron.com for all your Transformers related news!
