Upcoming Takara Tomy & Ex Gokin Fewture Models Product Images From Super Festival 66 In Japan

Grimlock's gun...

Well, the club needs to get rid of all those extra Machine Wars sets somehow.


Because god forbid they put them on clearance for 1/2 off or anything.

We have received more images from Tony of Tempting Toys from Super Festival 66 going on right now in Japan. This batch of images gives us a close and personal look at the upcoming Million Publishing exclusives Shouki with Daniel and GoShooter with Shūta Gō. Shouki is a mail away exclusive from Million Publishing Transformers Generations 2014 Vol. 1 while GoShooter is an exclusive mail away from Transformers Generations 2014 Vol. 2.

Just chalk it up to a typo and continue leading a happy life.

-Edit- Goshooter happily continues his carreer of not being in my collection at all with this exclusive.

Grimlock and Prime are...okay. They don't seem as bad as everyone is making them out to be, but they still don't transform. Plus, this toyline is probably going to start and end with those three characters, so that's another strike against them.

who the hell are these obscure bots and how did they win a poll to get toys?

You didn't know that? I thought it was brought up and discussed before when we got a look at the Goshooter and Shuta bios, or am I misremembering?

It's no typo.

I didn't say it was. I was suggesting to put your fingers in your ears and go NANANANANANANANANANA.

He wasn't a Headmaster in the first place, either.

They're not so obscure in Japan, where the poll was commenced.

And only one of them was a poll winner.

So you are saying the G1 mold was retooled without the headmaster gimmick when they repainted it ?

Here we go again:

Shouki: Trainbot Leader, appeared in the Headmasters Cartoon. G1 version was based on the Diaclone Train Robo, so not a Headmaster in the slightest.
GoShooter: Headmaster Jr. from Masterforce, G1 toy was repainted from Headmaster Siren. We have been over this, multiple times!

Like a job promotion! Anyone?

Headmaster Jrs. and Godmasters are similar in the mystical side of things, differing only in type of Transtector and connection used. He did get a promotion in function: he's a Commander now!

It's a shame, because when I saw Fewture Models were doing TF stuff I thought "Oh goodie! We're gonna get some awesome redesigns like they did with Getter Robo!".

But no. GEEWUN up the wazoo.

Sigh.
