Toy World from Hong Kong has posted some new images of the upcoming Transformers toys from Tomy Takara at the 2009 Japan Chara Hobby Toy Fair. Chara Hobby Toy Fair is a 2-day event, starting from today (29th August 2009) till 30th August 2009.
Thanks to Toy World, we can take a look at upcoming Disney Label Donald Duck, Halloween Disney Label Mickey as well as Device Labels.
Encore Bruticus/Combaticons toys were display at the toy fair, interestingly the G1 styled Constructicons are spotted besides the Combaticons. Speculation will surely mount whether the next upcoming Takara Encore will be the much-loved G1 Constructicons.

Meh... I'd rather have a true and redesigned Classics Style Devastator that was an update of the original.. and not some repaint..

great Find though man!!

dissapointment!

are these all the pictures available? not many are very clear!.

i would have really liked to have gotten a closer look at those device labels.

What are those white planes by the Constructions?

Wasn't Donald's mech's altmode supposed to be in Herbie colors?

Man, that Halloween Mickey Prime still looks pretty much like crap, why is that displayed in the front...

Oh I'm sure he'll be repainted time and again...

If I were to guess, I'd say they were prototypes of the original Aerialbots, much like the green... things are mockups of the Constructicons and those things at Bruty's feet are concepts of the combaticons.

ooh yes, some exciting stuff....

I want to know why Donald's alt mode is half silver. If they're going to make it look like Bumblebee, they could at least do it right.

Device label is looking sharp. I'll picking that up.

I'm interested more in those white jets and the constructicons.

Looking closely at both, I've become curious. The constructicons look very... odd. I know they are suspended in air on small pegs, but the layout and shapes of some of them are off. For starters there are only 5 "constructicons" and the only one that looks like a constructicon is the left most. It looks like Bonecrusher, which is on the wrong area of Devastators body. There's also something between the constructicons and the Combaticon vehicles. Which are pretty cool looking for non-transformer Transforemrs.

As for those white jets, I'm stumped. I thought they were white chase figures of Sixwing. But after looking at the Universe Superion galleries I don't think so anymore. For one, they are way too big. Another, one of the planes has a radar dish. Lastly I just flat out don't recognize the one in robot mode. Maybe a new combiner?

I think they are old test shots, or protos not used. Besides the differences you pointed out, look at the Combaticons in front of Bruticus. They are very different from the toy versions that we see mass released, especially Onslaught.

Actoys has posted additional photo images from 2009 Japan Chara Hobby Toy Fair.
This time we get to see more toy images, including the recent announced MP1B Convoy Black Version, ROTF Buster Optimus Prime, Chara Hobby Exclusive ROTF Soundwave Black Version, Alternity Black Megatron and many more.

Man, the Alternity Megatron Diamond Black is looking good in the display! I'll definitely be getting one.

Black Alternity Megatron = WIN
Black eHobby MP Convoy = WIN
Black eHobby HS Convoy (in background) = WIN

Apparently all they need to do to impress me is make a mold in Black. Would love to see a black, eHobby version of Buster Prime but I'll "settle" for the standard red and blue for now.

Geez, that Buster Prime Mug looks Bafugly!!

I still wish they would have done a removable or detachable face mask feature..

tsk... tsk...what a shame..

Just consider the Buster OP as the "GIVE ME YOUR FACE" rage mode OP.

Man, I'm glad I preordered Buster Prime, Black Convoy, and Black Soundwave These just looks sweet.

I saw Soundblaster on the updated pictures. I wonder if he's getting reissued soon. I've got one but he's getting old. I'd love to have a new one.

lol the hall of black repaints

I doubt it. I see several other "Black Versions" in there, so it may be a Black Version Hall of Fame.

The ROTF Prime looks great but the gold on the window pieces should not be there. I also hope that the final product will have an option of displaying with a faceplate or not.

Pretty cool, I just made an arrangement in my toy room with my black versions of figures on display as well. I left room for MP- Nemesis Prime too! I have a lot of those, or will be getting a lot of those, but they are missing some rare guys that they should have in there.

AS far as the toys to sell, meh, not much.

The gold pieces are just regular chrome, with lots of lighting overhead being reflected.
