Temenos Sword Promotion for Takara's The Last Knight TLK Toyline Release Event

Posted by william-james88 Apr 15, 2017 at 8:52pm CDT 32,885 views
Takara's TLK Transformers the Last Knight toys will be released on April 29th in Japan. To make this extra special, there will be a promotion at Toysrus with a gift for the first 6000 customers to spend more than 2000 Yen at a Japanese ToysRUs. Those people will get the Temenos Sword, which is a highly detailed version of Leader Optimus Prime's sword. There was a similar promotion for the previous movie toyline with the same sword. We know this from a tweet from @07groundprime which has images from a Japan Toysrus flyer.

Pretty pathetic when 5 of the 9 figures on a promo for a new toy line are repaints.

And they even happen to be the same as the hasbro releases, giving even less variety to this line.

Were any of you dissapointed to find out that Takara's TLK Voyager Optimus was the same as Hasbro's? Well, Takara is releasing a special limited redeco of this figure as part of an advanced ticket sale for Transformers The Last Knight in Japan. It is very blurry, but the Snakas Blog this picture was found on states that they can make out purple eyes so this may be Takara's take on the "shadow spark prime" deco. This figure now joins a long line of advance ticket sales exclusives in Japan like the Darkside Optimus Prime for DOTM and G1 color Grimlock for AOE.

Nothing really. The wave 1 Hasbro guys are pretty much identical to their Takara counterparts

I think Beserker has a bit of red hue in the legs that the Hasbro one doesn't have, but I think that's the only real visible difference

Yup, the only difference in all of wave 1 is a few red bits on the legs of Berserker. Everything else is the same.

TakaraTomy has posted on their website with the latest info on exclusive Transformers: The Last Knight giveaways! The first giveaway is the silver Temenos Sword, which will be exclusive to ToysRus stores in Japan.

Optimus Prime's Age Of Extinction shield will also be a giveaway item later in the Summer. If you are lucky enough to get one of these swords make sure you keep the ticket that comes with it. Those who do will be able to obtain a "Clear File" which is a clear plastic file folder featuring Transformers artwork on it.

In the Fall Optimus' Dark of the Moon axe will become a promotional item, a bonus for those who got the shield. Make sure to keep those tickets someplace safe so you won't miss out!

Unfortunately, these giveaways are only for Japan. If you live in the US the new Transformers The Last Knight toys will hit stores Monday, April 24th!

Well, this is it. The TAKARA 1-steps are exactly the same POS as the Hasbro ones:

Hound:

Barricade:
http://www.1999.co.jp/eng/10444507

Optimus:
http://www.1999.co.jp/eng/10444506

Bumblebee:
http://www.1999.co.jp/eng/10444505

They are pretty much the same price as the US or Canada. That's not counting shipping, obviously.

Sigh... Guess I'll wait for a clearance sale for Hound.

Fellow Seibertronian -Kanrabat- has spotted four new figures from the upcoming live-action movie Transformers: The Last Knight over on 1999.co.jp, as part of the related Takara Tomy line of toys. Where Hasbro has One-Step Changers, we now see the Speed Change TLK-06 Bumblebee, TLK-07 Optimus Prime, TLK-08 Hound and TLK-09 Barricade!

Check out images below of the two modes and the transformation sequence, and let us know what you think of this initial Japanese offering in their striking similarity to the Hasbro version of the same toys.

It's still a bit hilarious and sad how little paint these guys have. Takara = Hasbro here

That's usually the case with the initial waves. It's a bit later down the line that TakaraTomy offers "premium decos".

But their AOE line had different/superior decos to Hasbro's from the get go.
It looks like they are going back to the method of the first film where both companies released the same toys.
