You missed alt-mode Blaster next to Music Label Convoy.

And I believe that's alt-mode Music Label Soundwave, too.

Said their names already as their robot mode selves. Bots can transform in these if they want to.

So basically, just about every musical character dukes it out, then there's a very Japanese party? (feel like that last bit needs to be reworded...)

The bat ears are pretty clever, being made of those little jet fins, though I wonder how bat-Soundwave's tail is done? Heh, imagine if those Mutant guys got Kreons.

Are the Optimi singing the Touch? They should totally be singing the Touch.

I'm just going to assume that they're singing the Touch.

The Japanese party in question is actually more of a custom during springtime. Those pink petals are from Japanese cherry-blossoms or sakura (桜 or 櫻), Japan's national flower. It's common practice to have a picnic under a blooming tree during springtime and watch the petals float by, that practice is called hanami (花見).

Kreon Ratbat

Takara Tomy has updated their Kre-O website with chapter 17 in their web comic series. Enjoy the comic mirrored below:

Inferno
Red Alert
Optimus Prime
The Negavator
Minerva
Red Alert w/ red "Auto Berserk" helmet
NAVI (BWNeo)
Teletraan 15
Teletraan 10
Pyro
Block Town Carzap
Cybertron Evac
Energon Inferno
Energon Prowl

energon mirage is the blue, yellow boat(not here) that is energon prowl

Swapping helmets causes insanity, apparently. First it happened to Galvatron, now it's happened to Red Alert (had to check Sabrblade's list for that name, I seriously can't tell these red/white emergency Autobots apart).
*looks at all of my own Kreons with swapped helmets* Uh oh...

With all the custom ones I've made from bots like Drift to Dinobots to combiners to citybots like Omega Supreme, Metroplex, and Trypticon just about all of mine have different parts. I have a 1 gallon bag full of random parts. It's a madhouse! A MADHOUSE!

Another one is up - http://www.takaratomy-marketing.co.jp/products_kreo/comic.html



Optimus Prime
Starscream
Bumblebee
Megatron
Cloud Megatron as a toy
Prowl
Optimus Prime as a Kreon toy
Some cat
Power Up VT6 as a toy
Music Label Frenzy (based on the direction/orientation of the ear hook) as a real earphone
The red Legendisc
Isami Tatewaki as a real human
Knock Out
Ravage
Laserbeak
Sunstreaker
The toy rocket
Power Cycle

Panel 6 is also a reference to the 1984 back-of-the-box art.

And yes again, it's partly lifted from an episode of the G1 series: Child's Play.

They... they even included that animation error from Child's Play, with Bee entering the ship being all borked up. That's got to be a new level of nerdy (which is saying a LOT with these comics -- just this one alone, even).

Child's Play was notorious for animation errors and for a Season 2 episode, that's saying something. Not including one would be doing the episode a disservice

Takara Tomy have posted volume 18 in Kre-O web comic, which we've mirrored below for easy viewing. Check it out below!

Has anyone tried translating this? It feels like this one actually has a story.

Of course, in the first frame, Rukia from Bleach appears.

Um, there are no Bleach characters in this comic, let alone the first panel.

Not to mention the first panel's just Optimus, Megs, BB, and Screamer falling into a purple spiral...

But I'd like translations, too. For all these comics. Pointing out obscure references is about as far as I can get out of these.

In case anyone's curious about who all's in this comic:

(Forgot to switch into Manga Reading Eyes for this -- Just finished reading Windblade -- so the far left panel was the first one I read. )

I meant it as a joke. The character clearly isn't Rukia, but that kid sure looks like her on that panel on the far left! But yeah. I meant it as a joke.
