A fun image has popped up online featuring a sign at Toysrus in Japan. On it, we get our first look at the Takara version of Last Knight Voyager Megatron. As with the rest of the line, this seems to be the same toy as his Hasbro counterpart. However, we do learn that, like the TLK Voyager Optimus, Voyager Megatron will be a Toysrus exclusive there. Feel free to compare the Takara version to the Hasbro version to see if there are any differences.

From what we can see on this poster it appears to be coming out on July 15th, 2017. The figure will cost 4,499 yen which is roughly $40.59 USD with current exchange rates.

Also, the sign shows yet another image of the one movie toy that is exclusive to Takara so far in the line: Calibur Optimus Prime. It seems to come out on the same date and the Toysrus release comes with an extra Energon sword, which we can see in the image. Enjoy! Thanks to Type-R from TFW2005 for sharing this image.

So in other words, the Voyager versions of Optimus Prime and Megatron are exclusives, and not main retail, in Japan. Good to know.

Thanks to the Planet Iacon Facebook page, we have some new images of the upcoming Leader class Calibur Optimus Prime and Megatron set to come out as part of The Last Knight's toyline! These new images show off Prime and how is backpack now comes off and transforms into a shield, much like Striker Optimus Prime did with his Stealth Force gear. Also shown off is how Prime comes with his standard battle shield/blaster, this time done up in bright gold. The figure is also set to come with an ax. Megatron also shows up, and looks very similar to his Hasbro counterpart. Check out the images and let us know what you think!

EDIT: Updated with more images including Calibur Optimus Prime packaging.

He looks a bit more... Gundam-y.

Much spikier yet defined in a way that looks much more Anime-esque than the extremely realistic approach of the movies.

Is this part of the Takara line or part of Hasbro Premier Edition?

The gold-colored shield, named "Gold Vector Shield", is a campaign item, rather than a standard accessory to the Optimus figure.

Pre-order for Prime was up at AmiAmi: http://www.amiami.com/top/detail/detail ... 3&page=top

But in less than an hour the pre-orders closed. They could open back up so keep an eye on that. It is listed as "limited", I'm not sure if that means they only got a small quantity or if that means it includes the shield (AmiAmi does sometimes get campaign items).

Great looking figure, but I can't squeeze in any more July pre-orders.

Optimus is now up on HLJ: http://hlj.com/product/tkt89150?utm_source=seibertron.com&=&utm_medium=referral&utm_campaign=news%20post

Looks like the "limited" refers to the extra sword.

After the recent posts from Tokyo Toy Show, showing the Takara Tomy version of Transformers: The Last Knight (King) figures - reported here - we also have some official stock photography for the two exclusives Calibur Optimus Prime and Voyager Megatron!

Respectively from Amazon.co.jp and Toys'R'Us Japan, the images have been mirrored below, and also include a second Amazon listing for Calibur Optimus' Limited Edition (with an added sword) - check them out.

In addition to the images we newsed the other day, from Tokyo Toy Show, giving us a look at Takara Tomy's Transformers: The Last Knight toy line - aka TLK - we also have some images of the Voyagers and deluxes courtesy of Alfes2010, featuring Sqweeks, Hound, Drift, and more! Check them out below.

Also included is a quick GIF showing off Leader Megatron's battle mask faceplate gimmick. It's nifty, if it doesn't give you nightmares!

So what is the means of offering for the gold shield. ?

I don't own the 1st edition Prime - but I do wonder if they'd have been better served to include the other deco of the shield as a promo item with it's expended shield mode.

Or even make a brand new mould of it in it's folded up arm cover mode (where it's just a panel that sits on his arm with a circle on it and the gun barrels retracted and the force shield element not deployed.

It is a bit of an oversight to not offer the 3rd form of the shield.

Though doesn't it also have a "Ground mode" where he can take it off and shove it in the ground too ?

Is it me or does Takara Sqweeks look more rusty than Hasbro Sqweeks?
