Takara are yet again doing what they do best: fancy repaint exclusives. The official Takara Tomy website features a set of clear Animated Starscream Clones which are all obtainable in different ways. Good luck collecting them all!

Thundercracker: Clear Blue Version will be available to those who spend 3000 or more yen on Animated figures at a variety of Japanese toy and hobby stores.

Skywarp: Clear Purple Version will be free to anyone who buys 3000 yen or more of Animated figures at Toys R Us

Image

To get Decepticon Sunstorm: Clear Orange Version you have to buy Ultra Magnus from Amazon.jp or buy, you guessed it, 3000 or more yen's worth of Animated figures at electronics and hobby store Yamada Denki

Ramjet: Clear White Version can only be got from Japanese department store Ito Yokada if you buy, yes, at least 3000 yen of Animated figures.

Image

The most mysterious figure, Starscream Clone: Black Version will be available only from Japanese department store Jusco if you buy Ultra Magnus.

All the figures will be available from the 24th of July apart from the black clone, who can only be got from the 6th August. Their page on the Takara Tomy website can be seen here.

I may be able to get Ramjet if anyone desperately wants him. As for the others...hmm, getting a cute set of candy-coloured clones or not spending 12,000 yen plus an Ultra Magnus' worth. It's a tough choice.

Considering how difficult it is to get, I'd imagine these going for about $300 as a set at next year's BotCon... maybe $250 if you're cute.

Nah, $150-$180 for the set of 5. They're not much more difficult to get than the previous wave of clear legends, the Guardian and Mighty teams, and the movie legends (like Blue Soundwave, White Demolisher, etc).

Why is the black clone nameless?

Meh, if those would be painted normally, I'd consider, but clear versions? Not this time.

Uwaaa, it's so cute, I want it now...

Though I do agree... I would prefer it opaque and painted.
