The Energon Pub

Wonder Festival Winter 2007 has begun in Japan. FantoFan is covering the event. They have already posted a lot of images from the event. They have posted in package images of BT-17 Black Convoy:



You can check out more in package shots here.

That's not all. There is also a small gallery from the event that show several pictures of MP-05 Megatron and more! Click here to check it out.

man that model of cyclonus looks a lot cooler than the g1 toy...

So Takara's using Hasbro's packaging for Black Convoy huh?

It's good to see that, unlike some early photos, that MP Megatron can stand on his own with the cannon attached. I just hope that Takara can announce what they're going to do to get him into the states legally.

Shame they went with packaging you have to destroy to open.

I like that Cyclonus too. I always wanted to see him revisited.

I'm mixed on the Idea of mass releasing Nemeisis Prime. The Dodge Ram mould wasn't all that great, but the limited run of this figure has made him very sought after.

However if he becomes availible everywhere, it'll be good for everyone who wants one, but the charm that comes with the occasional rare figure will be lost.

Sorry, I just think sometimes exclusived should be left that way.

I love them all except whellie i will buy him to destroy him. But still they ar all awsome.

I have to say, I like that Wheelie!
And that Cyclonus looks brill too.
They should make some more tfs just like that. I'd love an anime accurate Sprimger.

Lord crump my thought exactly make them look exaxtly like there anime parts its just so much cooler i hape they make a line like this.

Why are there still no pics of Drancron? I love Sky Shadow and I want to buy the repaint, but no pics. It would be really nice if they went with a new color scheme like they did with Wolfang.

If only they will make the cylconus and wheelie as actual toys.

Are Wheelie and Cyclonus the same as that other thread about Wheelie and Cyclonus? (Forum's broke so I cannot reference the thread or the link to know.) They both look really familiar!!

wow i didnt realize Prime was an insect...damn look at the size of those "ears" lol

I sooooooooo want that Cyclonus.

shame they went with the bubble packaging, regardless i hope i can get ahold of Black Convoy for a decent price sometime soon...

Megatron looks B-A! I really like that Wheelie and Cyclonus also. I would definitely buy those, even if a bit cute and cartoony. Cute may work for Wheelie, but I expect more attitude from Cyclonus.

Reposting (Looks like my original post got deleted):

BT Black Convoy
The figure looks great but I am disappointed with the bubble box. Come on Takara and eHobby; you've already jacked the price on this toy, why are you giving us less? The other Binaltech boxes had nice artwork and could be reused for storage. A bubble box is worthless. You can't store the figure in it, and you definitely can't stack it. Stop being so cheap.


MP Megs
I am loving this guy more and more with each new set of pictures that comes out. His face looks a lot better from the side. Question - Can he pivot at the waist? I haven't seen any pictures yet to confirm this.


Custom Cyclonus.
Very nice. I would like to see Takara something like this but less cartoony. And Wheelie, you look tasty enough to be fed to the Sharkticons.

KISS Players Starscream!

I knew they would get around to making it!

thats kiss players atariscream actualy..... and it looks like thats gonna be one more to add to my starscream collection, if i can snag one.

Does anyone know the story behind Starscream Atari? Does she become possessed by Starscream? Is Starscream in the comic?

Yes, supposely that's the story, but I want a Kiss Player Starscream not a repaint of another character, especially a human girl? That's kinda lameo. Interesting thoug.

I'm digging Wheelie, I know alot of you hate him, but I love that Wheelie, wish I could get one.

Well, in that case, it sounds like KISS Starscream in anime colors may become inevitable.
