Just in from the Planet Iacon facebook page, images from the Tokyo Toy Show. We get a look at the packaging for Masterpiece MP-17 Prowl and MP-19 Smokecreen, as well as Smokescreen himself. Another look at Takara's Generations Titan Class Metroplex, which was only just revealed yesterday, and the Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen Polystone Statue form Prime 1 Studios. Images mirrored below.

The CyberGundam blog has also posted images from the show. Their images include all the previously mentioned figures plus MP-18 Bluestreak, MP-12T Tigertrack, a new sub-line of automatically transforming cars, GT-R GT03 Megatron & GT04 Fortress, Transformers Generations TG-21 Springer, TG-22 Blitzwing, TG-24 Legends Optimus Prime/Bumblebee, TG-25 Orion Pax vs. Megatron, Transformers Go! G08 Grimwing repaint & G23 a repaint of Ultimate Predaking, and the Samurai combiner team.

well thank god the extra parts on smokescreen make him look boxy, he wont be draining my wallet. though i cant wait for prowl!!!

Man, Takara only made than nice deco after Hasbro already made theirs for Takara to use as a base and improve upon.

Hasbro started with square one with their deco, while Takara got to start at a higher level thanks to Hasbro already raising the bar with their deco.

That Smokescreen is looking worse and worse. I admit that I'm a flip flopper. One day or moment I might say a figure is great then the next minute I might say its bad. I'm only getting Mp-17. Mp-19 looks like it belongs with the alternators line where most of them robot modes where chunky and blocky. Those extra parts on Smokes take away his superhero V shape and some other stuff I mentioned in previous post about him.

Mp Prowl is the best of the trio cause he just looks and seems like the better Hero toy. I'm saving my money for realistic transformers from now on mainly pertaining to movie figures. The only figures that got on my collection this year was: Mp-17, Beast Hunters voyager Predaking, legion tp Smokescreen and Dotm HA Skids.

O hai, Dragotron and Budōra.

Ah ha, I was planning to hold out for a red repaint of the uber Predaking (because I want a robot Smaug), and this gives me hope.

G19 Hunter Ratchet (Green repaint)
G21 Skystalker repaint
EG09 Groove (Animated Prowl repaint)
EG10 Beachcomber (Legends Beachcomber)
TG26 Generations IDW Bumblebee
TG27 Generations Trailcutter/Hoist Set

TG29 Generations Sandstorm

Any one else getting a beast machines silverbolt vibe from the skystalker repaint?

Posted: **Thu Jun 13, 2013 11:37 am**

Gōradora looks really colorful. And thank goodness it's a unique deco instead of some slavish G1 Abominus deco.

I can't tell by Hunter Arcee looks almost black in this image. Hunter Ratchet, however, is Movieverse green.

Strangely enough, EG09 is given the name "Turbo Cycle" instead of "Groove". :???:

Nice to see BeCool getting continued in Japan.

I've heard that the "Orion Pax vs Megatron" Generations 2-pack may not actually be called that in Japan. Can someone who can read their names tell me what this image says their names are?

Looks like Generations Thrilling 30 Bumblebee is going to be called "Goldbug" in Japan.

Not really, since he looks mostly yellow with some purple as a secondary color.

Interesting... I almost want that EG09 guy to fill the Animated Prowl-shaped void in my collection. Wonder what the scale would be like compared to everyone else. Probably ridiculous.

Who's EG9 and EG10?

I meant more like how he was colored in the show rather than the toy, because the skstalker repaint has the yellow legs n hands, with a purple body. However the thing that kinda throws it off is the huge yellow wings on his shoulders, where B.M silverbolt had the little yellowish feathers

TG-25 Orion Pax & Megatronus

Looks like they went with the original name before he had it shortened.

Turbo Cycle (based on G1 AM Prowl's), and Beachcomber.

Generations Springer and Blitzwing looks the same as Hasbro's version.

I think those just might be the Hasbro versions on display as a stand-in, since notice how Orion Pax has a clear windshield instead of blue and Megs has no purple-painted Tron lines.

Because it implies that Takara is going to be using those toys for pre-WFC versions of Orion Pax and Megatronus, when that's clearly not what these toys are meant be, and Megs' altmode is an Earth vehicle even.

Oh. Right.

Well, it doesn't bother me, but I suppose it sucks if you really care.

Looks like Abominus is getting redecoed into an homage of Monstructor! :grin:

Now we need a third one as Gobots Monsterous

Posted: **Thu Jun 13, 2013 2:37 pm**

some real nice colours there. and a new deco for Abominus! dammit, I've not even got one of them yet and already looks like I'm going to try and get 3 different ones! argg!

Posted: **Thu Jun 13, 2013 5:52 pm**

Excellent stuff.

The MP figures are all impressive. Please release now! Cool looking display under each MP figure. Wonder if those will come with the figures and can be linked together to build a set?

Takara Springer looks underwhelming compared to his Hasbro counterpart. While Takara Blitzwing looks snazzy with his deco.

Looks like Hoist has made an appearance.

Hmm... the Grimwing repaint is a lot more pink than I thought it'd be.
