Tokyo Toy Show Images: Takara Tomy Masterpiece, Generations, Transformers Go!, and More

well thank god the extra parts on smokescreen make him look boxy, he wont be draining my wallet. though i cant wait for prowl!!!

That Smokescreen is looking worse and worse. I admit that I'm a flip flopper. One day or moment I might say a figure is great then the next minute I might say its bad. I'm only getting Mp-17. Mp-19 looks like it belongs with the alternators line where most of them robot modes where chunky and blocky. Those extra parts on Smokes take away his superhero V shape and some other stuff I mentioned in previous post about him.

Mp Prowl is the best of the trio cause he just looks and seems like the better Hero toy. I'm saving my money for realistic transformers from now on mainly pertaining to movie figures. The only figures that got on my collection this year was: Mp-17, Beast Hunters voyager Predaking, legion tp Smokescreen and Dotm HA Skids.

O hai, Dragotron and Budōra.

Also making the various overseas images boards we have images from a Takara Tomy catalog currently on display at the Tokyo Toy Show. The catalog features images of several figures that we previously announced but only appeared as silhouettes. Of note we now have images of Transformers Go!:

• G07 Bakudora (Ripclaw repaint)
• G09 Goradora Set (Abominus repaint)
• G19 Hunter Ratchet (Green repaint)
• G21 Skystalker repaint
• EG09 Groove (Animated Prowl repaint)
• EG10 Beachcomber (Legends Beachcomber)
• TG26 Generations IDW Bumblebee
• TG27 Generations Trailcutter/Hoist Set
• TG28 Generations Legends Megatron/Chop Shot Starscream/Waspinator Set
• TG29 Generations Sandstorm

Gōradora looks really colorful. And thank goodness it's a unique deco instead of some slavish G1 Abominus deco.

I can't tell by Hunter Arcee looks almost black in this image. Hunter Ratchet, however, is Movieverse green.

Strangely enough, EG09 is given the name "Turbo Cycle" instead of "Groove".

Nice to see BeCool getting continued in Japan.

I've heard that the "Orion Pax vs Megatron" Generations 2-pack may not actually be called that in Japan. Can someone who can read their names tell me what this image says their names are?

Looks like Generations Thrilling 30 Bumblebee is going to be called "Goldbug" in Japan.

Not really, since he looks mostly yellow with some purple as a secondary color.

Who's EG9 and EG10?

TG-25 Orion Pax & Megatronus

Looks like they went with the original name before he had it shortened.

Turbo Cycle (based on G1 AM Prowl's), and Beachcomber.

Generations Springer and Blitzwing looks the same as Hasbro's version.

I think those just might be the Hasbro versions on display as a stand-in, since notice how Orion Pax has a clear windshield instead of blue and Megs has no purple-painted Tron lines.

Sabrblade wrote:Because it implies that Takara is going to be using those toys for pre-WFC versions of Orion Pax and Megatronus, when that's clearly not what these toys are meant be, and Megs' altmode is an Earth vehicle even.

Oh. Right.

Well, it doesn't bother me, but I suppose it sucks if you really care.
