G- Shock x Transformers Master Optimus Prime Resonant Mode revealed (watch and pedestal)

A little under a year ago, Casio and Transformers collaborated together for an advertisement for the 35th anniversary. Well for Transformers' 35th anniversary, Casio and Transformers pull out their newest product, the G- Shock x Transformers DW-6900TF-Set Master Optimus Prime Resonant Mode. It appears to be an Optimus Prime with a hollowed chest that can be filled in with the similarly colored, included watch. The toy can turn into its "Pedestal Prime Mode," a stand where you can also display the included watch. The toy also includes two blasters that can be held in robot mode, as well as a Matrix of Leadership to replace the watch in robot mode.

Sadly, there is no info on the price or release date of this product.

These pictures come from Yu's Hobby Land on Facebook, which was brought up to us thanks to Seibertronian Nathaniel Prime.

So thoughts on this strange new product for Transformers' 35th anniversary. Let us know in the Pub forums below!

I know that Optimus is one of the go-to characters when it comes to consumer product crossovers, but man, MAN do I wish they had gone with Vector Prime for this. Sure, he's a somewhat obscure character, but it would have fit his theme perfectly.

I couldn't agree more. Vector prime would've been a great choice for this

I already own the previous G-Shock X Transformer collaboration Convoy watch, but damn, how much damage is this going to do to my wallet? But I collect G-Shocks so... NEED :BOT:

This looks pretty cool to me. Vector Prime may have been a more logical character but everyone knows Optimus Prime sells better. You're welcome for the help btw. ;)

The watch in the video was way better than this digital one here.

Depending on the price I really want this, also wanting the transforming cheap watches too if only for nostalgia.

Echoing the Vector Prime sentiment.

watch, as he turns form a robot into... an incomprehensible mess! but seriously, that's still a pretty cool robot design, even if he's a bit chunkier than what we're used to.

Bot mode looks great! Love the concept. I'd love to see a repaint in Heinrad colors. In fact this almost looks like him already in bot mode but with a total reboot. If i buy this its Heinrad and not Optimu on my shelf.

Same. Vector was even retroactively given a watch mode from one of those old Chronoform bots! If I had the money to burn, I'd get one of these and paint it up.

I want it even more now :( I think the base mode will look neat with titan masters on it. The watch looks a bit plain/cheap on its own but goes with the figure in robot mode really well where as the matrix looks a little odd.

It's odd the watch fits better in bot mode but the matrix fits better in pedestal mode.

TakaraTomy has posted a region-locked promotional video on YouTube, which is only viewable in Japan:



Thankfully, TFND has reuploaded it to Facebook for all eyes to see.

It's really cool, and the Matrix is called the Chrono Matrix.

In "platform" mode with the matrix it looks more like some sort of a Space Bridge.

Is it going to be available with the watch, or is the watch just sold separately? And if it's only available separately, where would be a good place to get it?

How many times has Optimus Prime gained transforming toys that's based on something from a non-toy company during these collaborations?
