Thanks to Snakas' Blog, we've got images of a new Transformers: The Last Knight toy released as a free gift through the September issue of Japan's TV Magazine -- Burning Megatron! Molded entirely in red plastic with some gold detailing, this redeco of the previously-released Legion-class TLK Megatron comes bundled with a few cardboard cutouts of TLK Optimus Prime, Squeaks, Bumblebee, Drift and Grimlock to fight. Take a look at the images below and tell us if you plan on getting your hands on this in the forums!

TV-Magazine (テレビマガジン Terebi Magazin or "Televi-Magazine") and TV-Boy (てれびくん Terebikun "Televi-Kun", note the different kana used) are the two main boys' magazines that Transformers appear in. Being boys' magazines, they're filled contemporary TV series and movies for younger boys, including Super Sentai, Kamen Rider and others.

Yup, and even then most werent overly drastic.

I got Movie Advanced Hound Slog, Snarl and Black Knight Optimus Prime because I really liked the superior coloration of the :TAKARATOMY: versions. And I'm still thinking about getting their AoE Scorn even though my TLK Scorn is already on the way.

Previously, TakaraTomy has offered the Temenos Sword and the Gold Vector Shield. Now, we have news of some new promotions!

Starting September 16th, any shopper that buys more than 2000 Yen (about $18-$19 USD) worth of Last Knight toys in participating Japanese stores will get a DVD containing the stop-motion sequences and transformation videos TakaraTomy has created to promote the movie line.

Come the month after, and we're back to vacuum-metalized accessory giveaways. In October, another 2000+ Yen purchase will get you the Bronze Calibur Axe, a presumably bronze version of the axe included with the TakaraTomy Calibur Optimus Prime, which is based on the axe that Prime wielded in the Dark of the Moon film. In November, spend another 2000+ Yen and you get two weapons: Optimus' Gold Temenos Sword and Megatron's Gold Battle Axe. Apparently Megatron prefers more blunt (and somewhat inaccurate) names for his weapons.

Check out the promo poster below, and let us know what you think in the Energon Pub!

If you spend about 3,000 yen at Toys R Us Japan (i think), you get a cardboard display diorama (a piece of folded card and a metal support, displaying computer graphic readouts out stuff like that). There's a circle/crosshairs in the middle of the "floor" used to position the toy to stand on.

Has this been posted as news? If not, then I'll take pics and submit them. Please pm me or reply to this post and I'll do it asap

Please do send along some images! It's easier to reach us by email or the contact form, rather than wait for the boards to be read at busy times. :D

Any comparison shots between the :HASBRO: and :TAKARATOMY: TLK Leader Megatron?

Ok, I'll take some photos of the cardboard diorama later. I don't know for sure if it's for 3,000 yen, as my girlfriend got it for me. I'll ask her before uploading it. I'll probably pose a few TFs on it to show the scale, too and they too post a fairly "scan" line set of images so others can hopefully make their own version.

Also courtesy of Loopaza Mega Store on Facebook, we have a look at the Transformers section of Figure King magazine, issue #236, with the predominantly Takara Tomy TLK lines. Featured in the scans are the big Dragonstorm in both TLK 30 and TLK 31 versions - check it out below.

I don't usually like clear plastic figures but damn that looks pretty good and STILL more accurate than Hasbro's non-clear version in terms of flames.

Another Japanese exclusive has surfaced via Dengeki Hobby and the Snakas blog, for the Takara Tomy Transformers TLK line for The Last Knight: a giveaway campaign featuring a Bronze Calibur Axe for Optimus Prime! Available with a purchase over 2000 Yen on Transformers products in certain stores - though we currently have no other details, but we do have a tease of some further accessories for both Megatron and Optimus in the images below!

That "ghost" Optimus look BOSS as hell!
I'm sure it will pop up on Mandrake eventually, but it will be expensive for sure.

The Takara Tomy YouTube channel has uploaded a new video featuring the two leader class figures from their The Last Knight TLK line - Optimus Prime and Megatron - plus Japanese rappers ACE and 掌幻... for the first official rap battle to illustrate the toys and their features! Check out the clip (in Japanese) below, and let us know what you think in the Energon Pub.
