(The following information has been translated from the Toy Festival website)

The 16th Annual Toy Festival will be held on Sunday, March 18th from 10:00 AM – 5:00 PM in Tokyo at the “Bigsite” conference center (West Hall). The Toy Festival is one of the largest toy events in Japan and it features new and old toys as well as mangas, figures, and video games.


(The following information has been translated from TakaraTomy’s website)

TakaraTomy will be featuring the following Transformer products at the Toy Festival:

- A display of the Optimus Prime movie toy (unclear which version will be showcased).
- A live radio performance of the KISS Players radio show.
- The KISS Players Sparkbots debut sale. Each Sparkbot set includes: 3 Sparkbot key chains (which were named by the three female voice actresses). The set also contains a CD which features segments from the radio show along with behind the scenes recordings.

- The first 100 people to purchase the new Sparkbots set will receive an invitation, which will allow them to meet the three voice actresses at a later date.

(barfs all over his shoes) God, that's nasty. Why is Takara letting Barbie into their lineup?
It finally happened. The Chicago Cubs won the World Series. Yes, I cried.

Because Takara is convinced that men want to play with figures like this. :P

Stormrider's probably got a point. Takara will strip 'em down to their knickers, camel-toe 'em, give them scared facial expression and bondage accessories and a giant robot slave master. Rapemasters FTW.

That's not exactly what I meant. I meant that Takara is targeting men that collect female figurines. There are a variety of reasons why they collect them. I'm not arguing against your points, however let's not let the graphic descriptions get out of hand. Remember we have young ones reading these boards sometimes.
