Hello Kitty!

Does anyone know the status of Q Tracks? He was supposed to be released a few months ago, then got pushed back to June, but wasn't released yet. I'm starting to get worried that he won't be released for some reason.

HLJ shows 7/16 for Tracks.

Via Autobase Aichi and our Seibertron.com staffer william-james88, we have a number of official images from TakaraTomyMall pertaining to the August releases for a couple of Takara Tomy Transformers lines. Starting with some additions to the Q Transformers superdeformed (and super adorable) G1 esque mini robots, including Soundwave, Shockwave and Cliffjumper! Check them out below.

[Sabrblade]

Interesting that the G1-based QT26 bucks tradition by being named "Shockwave" instead of "Laserwave".

[no-one]

These lil guys are so cool looking. I'm liking the look of Shock and Sound ~~~~ Wave. I never noticed before, but Cliff and Bee's feet are VW hoods, ha! I gots me a Wheeljack on pre order from BBTS. That will be my first dip in the Q-formers pool. I have a feeling it may be a dangerous game though; I may get a bad case of gotta catch em all fever.

Some more bites of news from Wonderfest 2015, this time via the official Takara Tomy Transformers Twitter account and user tomet_s, featuring the Q Transformers line as they venture back into Neon Genesis Evangelion territory (as the franchise has done before with MP-10). The itty bitty Eva Units 00, 01 and 02 share the same mold as the Hello Kitty crossover, and sport their traditional anime schemes - check them out below!

kewt,

so can we look forward to a retool for the disney formers in this format?

In amidst all the other Takara Tomy Transformers reveals, some smaller, superdeformed and definitely adorable additions to the Q Transformers line were also shown off this past day - check out below the latest QT lil ones (via site sponsor TFSource), featuring the Awakening version of Unit 01, QTF07 Ironhide, QTF08 Jetfire and the first set of three Decepticons QTFS02 with Megatron, Shockwave and Soundwave! Plus, we get three plushie versions of Optimus Prime, Bumblebee and Lockdown from the animated web series, courtesy of Yawaraka.

well, it is the only rid size class with more than one decepticon in it.

[william-james88]

In the west. Japan created other decepticons using repaints of the existing molds in the warrior class.

But yeah, I totally get what you are saying and its why I posted the pics above. You can actually get yourself quite the RID cast collection focusing just on that legion class. Hasbro has put a ton of love in it for some reason.

[REMINATOR]

I didn't see my little bugger UM, so I'll post some pics of him. He won't make toy appearance until Dec.2015. I can't wait to own the little bugger. Love the new interpretation which the white cab become the main body...and the red bumper too. Too bad, they didn't give him white hand like they did to Optimus who got his blue hand painted:

[william-james88]

It seems like the Q-Transformers line is going to give us all the main G1 characters including the best Dinobot of all: Grimlock! Like Soundwave and Shockwave, his alt mode has been relegated to a car. Ratchet has also been revealed, which we all expected to see sooner rather than later once the Ironhide figure was revealed. These images were found on Robot Kingdom, thanks to fellow Seibertronian Decepticon Sunstorm, and the listings indicate a March 2016 release. Believe it or not, these Q-Transformers are actually the site owner's favourite figures at the moment. Check out some of the galleries if you think of getting into these cute little figures!

[RhA]

Grimlock is a car again.

Oh.

[Sabrblade]

Alternators/Binaltech Grimlock homage! Awesome!

But even more awesome: MARVEL COMICS RATCHET!!!

It'd be funny if there was a version where the car turned into his dino mode

Fellow Seibertronian and regular Twincaster xRotorstormx has spotted an announcement via the official Takara Transformers account on Twitter, pertaining to the release of the first Arcee figure in their Q-Transformers line. We had seen glimpses of this previously, but it appears that a January episode of the animated series will introduce the character - released at the end of January with what sounds like a massive launch party - and a new Beast Wars geared festival in 2016! If your Japanese skills are up to scratch, head here for more information!

[Starsaber468]

A festival for beast wars thats pretty awesome...

[Autobot N]

A festival for beats wars thats pretty awesome
...

Beats Wars? Is that a toyline about everyone turning into music devices like Blaster and Soundwave? That sounds pretty cool, might have to check it out!

[DedicatedGhostArt]

Gosh Arcee's paint is what I like to call "painful pink". XD It's so bright in these pictures.

[RiddlerJ]

Oh no, I'm not getting sucked into another Chibi style line. I already have a ton of Kre-O's and Bot Shots.

It always starts out with "Oh it's cute and cheap. I can buy one." Next thing you know, I've spent a whole paycheck on them.
