Courtesy of 2chan we have a couple of photos taken from an undisclosed Japanese magazine that give us some new looks at several upcoming Takara figures. We get new looks at:

  • Revoltech's movie universe Bumblebee
  • AM-09 Soundwave and his Scorpion-like Micron
  • AM-08 Terrorcon Cliffjumper and his Ravage-ish Micron
  • MP-11S Sunstorm
  • The recently revealed BAPE Convoy 2.0
  • EZ-08 Bulkhead
  • EZ-09 Arcee
  • A new campaign Micron repaint of PCC Waterlog

If it weren't for the fact the Takara versions use stickers and add big, ugly ports I'd be all over them. Getting Soundwave with two minions is mighty tempting.

I do hope Hasbro somehow brings the Microns over, whether it be multipacks, blindpacks, or whatever.

What are those two little flat-bed trucks and two cars below EZ Arcee? Are they Transformers?

I love that sticker argument. Who cares if they are stickers don't most collectors use reprolabels or tfkingdom anyway?

Your loss I guess. You should give them a try, some of their stuff is amazing.

Reprolabels and stickers that come with kits such as Gundams are on an entirely different field. I can see people's grief considering that the stickers will probably be peeling... I could careless, but to each their own.

Nope, just die-cast something.

With the microns, come a major drawback. Lack of paint apps. These figs seem to have no stickers applied, and cliffjumper is 1 shade of blue, with close to no paint apps, while Soundwave is solid grey. Actually, that look works for soundwave, being that he's supposed to be a stealth unmanned surveillance plane of sorts.
