So... the difference between the two is that one has an axe?

Can they be removed or are those joints pinned?

The whole backpack comes of and forms a riot shield.

So basically, the horrid backpack can detatch? Well, partsforming is a solution, but it's not the best one.

I'm actually quite impressed it can still clip on the back in "standard" configuration. I like that the shield passes the accessory test at first glance.... really have to catch it at an angle/side to notice the kibble.

That's pretty damn cool. Not accurate at all but hey, it looks awesome. I'm loving that shield and the axe.

Must. Have!

Meanwhile, in "They don't shive a git" news, HasBLO re-releases the AoE version. So stupid.

That can't be helped, really. It's a TakaraTomy-original idea like the Armor Knight retool, with no involvement from Hasbro whatsoever, so they have to wait until TakaraTomy is done with it before even attempting to release it.

Whatever the logistics reason, it's still stupid. Hasbro would rather rush out something already made in hopes of a quick buck than work out a deal with Takara in the huge amount of time they had between films.

Soooo.... anyone wanting to buy it but would be willing to part with the axe?

Courtesy of the Snakas blog, we have a rundown of upcoming figures from the Takara Tomy Transformers TLK (their version of the Hasbro The Last Knight line) with prices in Yen, running from yet unnamed TLK-20 Deluxe Figure character-M (but speculation on the blog is that this is Hot Rod) to TLK-31 Hyper Change Dragonstorm, with Nitro, Cogman and Leader Dragonstorm also rumoured, and MPM-4 Optimus Prime in the mix. Check out the info and available images below - though expect few surprises, as these are still the same toys as the Hasbro releases

This bb colours are terrible

In other news from Takara Tomy Transformers and their The Last Knight toyline, we have an exclusive listing found on Amazon.co.jp: TLK-EX Optimus Prime, a reissue of the 2007 Leader class, as we just saw Hasbro feature the toy in the Transformers Tribute line. Check out below some stock images from listing, and let us know what you think in the Energon Pub!

Heh, the Japanese are calling the Mega Turbo Changer Dragonstorm as "Big Speed Change Dragonstorm".

No need to quote the post just above, but the '07 Premium version is far more... premium than this Tribute version.
I'll stick with mine.

Your............?

Via Simon Chan on Facebook, we get to peek in the contents of Figure King #234, which feature both Takara's versions of The Last Knight figures and Legends (which will be featured in a separate article). In this issue, the focus is on Takara's take on Hot Rod, Infernocus, the Toys "R" Us exclusives Cybertron, Deluxe Megatron, and Skullitron, Movie Masterpiece Bumblebee, and Calibur Optimus Prime! The images of the issue has been mirrored below for one's viewing convenience.

I really hope I can get the Optimus two pack, the Leader Optimus, and Deluxe Bumblebee 3 pack soon and in good prices/availability. Hasbro's announcements tend to get inconsistent.

Neat. Takara's renamed the Deluxe Megatron as "Stealth Megatron".

Chefatron Review Calibur Optimus Prime :



P.s.

I rather like the idea of this mould decorated in the 2007 deco - as then the flames on the roof would add a bit of needed detail to the robot shoulders and add some visual interest and it would be a nice change from the default deco - also the orange weapons would match the orange paint accents on the hood then too.

We've included below three video reviews for your viewing pleasure of the Takara Tomy Transformers: The Last Knight TLK-15 Calibur Optimus Prime! The Leader class Autobot commander comes with a new shield accessory/removable backpack, plus axe and sword, and isn't too dissimilar from Lost Age AD-31 Optimus. Check them out!

So far all lady knight leader prime figures I undecided I will wait to see video of voyager and leader class figures side by side to decide buy figure

I meant I bought caliber Optimus. It's badass. I love the shield idea, and axe looks wicked!
