Thanks to TAG Hobby we have the Transformers products page scans from the latest issue of Hyper Hobby magazine. These images give us a great look at Takara Tomy's Transformers: Lost Age AD01 Optimus Prime. The other figures pictured are things we've seen before, the now familiar MP-21 Bumblebee prototype, full color MP-20 Wheeljack, and the Transformers Cloud TFC-A02 Brawn & TFC-D02 Starscream. Images mirrored below:

Weapon: Sword of Fury
I received TW-Trace in the mail yesterday, and after spending 30 minutes transforming him into robot mode, I was too frustrated to enjoy the figure. Additionally, I had snapped off Trace's alt mode window from his left arm due to the awkward transformation requiring you to pull and then twist it. As if to add insult to injury, changing him to alt mode was even HARDER. Today I picked up Generations Scoop and I very much enjoyed his simplistic, yet rewarding, transformation to alt mode and vice versa. Now I am warming up to HasTak's simpler transformations allowing me to enjoy the toys more in their respective modes. This version of Optimus seems like he will not disappoint in terms of play value. Plus, I think he looks much better than Hasbro's.

I seriously hope the MP Bumblebee face looks better in color. Right now, it's all derp.

Also, that MP Ultra Magnus silhouette... =P~

Which face? He has three.

Damn, Takara Optimus looks substantially better than the Hasbro version.
