Video Reviews of Takara Tomy Transformers The Last Knight TLK-15 Calibur Optimus Prime

I meant I bought caliber Optimus. It's badass. I love the shield idea, and axe looks wicked!

I may prefer the Voyager but damn that's a pretty darn nice and shiny thing. :O

In more Wonderfest 2017 images, we have a miscellaneous selection of movieverse toys from Takara Tomy - via Dengeki Hobby, Twitter user tagoal, and the official Transformers account - featuring figures from Transformers, Revenge of the Fallen, Dark of the Moon, Age of Extinction, and the new The Last Knight, opening on August 4th in Japan. Check out the neat diorama, and the TLK toyline with Hot Rod, Nitro, Scorn, Strafe and more on display!

Holy schnerk those dioramas are amazing! If I was rich I'd totally offer money for those.

I would probably go as far as to donate a organ or twenty for one of those diaramas.

They are indeed awesome. Bah.. my figures look like crap on a regular shelf now I seen how they could look in actual battle scenes lifted from the films.


I like Bumblebee's stance in this photo. Like he's about to fight or break out some awesome dance moves. Really cool figure but damn I wanna paint those grey bits to look metally nooowww! His hands and feet should have some yellow in places too but I got paint for that also.

Ok, so the lineup is:

TLK-20 Autobot Hot Rod (general Japanese retail? Yay I suppose)
TLK-21 Crosshairs
TLK-22 New Bumblebee
TLK-23 Strafe
TLK-24 Dinobot Scorn
TLK-25 Decepticon Nitro

TLK-27 Speed Change Autobot Drift
TLK-28 Speed Change Dinobot Scorn

TLK-26 seems to be missing, but I'd wager that's for the Speed Change Autobot Hot Rod toy.

Speed Change Scorn seems to do the thing more convincingly than the cars do judging by these pics.

Scorn seems have a rather upside down view in dino mode, and on his belly to boot.

Kinda like how I always transformed my G1 Jetfire
(can't find a pic of it and most other people turn the head around but I found one of the same Macross mold that shows it)


Works cos it's a visor and not a goofy face. And works for Scorn there too I guess cos he's very much the same sorta visor-face looking robot.

Not the case at all. They are independent companies. Takara could do whatever they want with these and for some reason Takara RARELY chooses to do something drastically different when it comes to most movie toys. Its usually just the Hasbro toys with a sticker on it, just like these toys.





Basically, this has been happening since day 1 for movie toys and yet it seems fans keep forgetting.

So Age of Extinction has been an exception?!
That's unfortunate.

Yes it has been, but later waves had more noticeable changes and their own releases at times. Movie 1 Incinerator comes to mind.
