New Transformers Adventures Images Including TAV Overload, Crazybolt and new Minicon Functionality

Posted by william-james88 Apr 21, 2016 at 6:13pm CDT 29,286 views
We got two new images from TF Yuki's twitter relating to the Transformers Adventure line. One features the Deployers TAV 46 Overload and TAV 47 Crazybolt and the other features some Minicons/Microns with an added peg that is different from any of the Hasbro releases. Fellow Seibertronian Sabreblade explains that tweet in more depth:
Yuki's Tweet [...] is announcing that the Microns for the Adventure subline called "Prime of Micron" are to be released at the end of the month and that new 5mm pegs have been added to the molds. [The image shows] how the Microns' new pegs now allow them to attach to bigger figures' 5mm ports.

It's a nice feature but not one that was necessary.

True, true. To be honest, I feel kinda honored to be able to talk with so many veterans of the TF franchise.

I remember them, but only because my son and nephews loved them.

I really like these and the possibility of making a rack and ruin using the Rook mold twice. Too bad fun pub couldn't pull it off anymore.

considering the minicon play-ability up to this point has really been relegated to the deployers only was stupid.you had minicons for characters who had a practically non articulated deployer,and a warrior figure.the peg just makes more since

So when do 5mm adapters for existing minicons come out? Or might that be a Shapeways product?

Seibetronian and Twincaster xRotorstormx pointed us towards a new entry on the Autobase Aichi blog, featuring the Takara Tomy Transformers Adventure TAV 50 (Power Surge) Optimus Prime, including the minicon - who transforms very similarly to the Pterodactyl zord of old - that gives Optimus the extra powers and wings. Check out the stock photography below!

That new deco is almost enough to make the altmode look not completely terrible.

Almost.

Wow. Not even a Takara deco can save this damn thing...

Of note is that the Japanese version is instead called "Hyper Surge Optimus Prime" rather than "Power Surge".

That is a nice looking Prime. The hasbro colors are still really cool though for the mold :MAXIMAL:

I will agree that the robot mode looks pretty awesome. But really...it doesn't excuse the terrible 'truck' mode.

No it really doesn't, But most of my figures are in robot mode anyway, so I won't mind terribly :MAXIMAL:
