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.

OK, wasn't too far off with my guess for TLK-26 
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.

To me it looks like this time
prohibits
to do better versions of their products. Only paintjobwise of course.

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.

I guess. Sometimes they have plastic difference colours like on Deluxe DotM Ironhide. But then they also like to make lil extra mold improvements like with RotF Buster Prime and ArmorKnight (and later Calibur) Prime.
I still miss my Black 2007 Arcee I got imported from Japan. I love that 'biker chick' mold and that colour scheme was great.

I totally agree, but I am not talking about those. Those are their own releases. I am speaking just of the Takara versions of Hasbro toys. AD 01 is the Takara counterpart of Hasbro's AOE leader Prime, not AD 31, which came out way later.Here is Takara's AOE Leader Prime (AD 01) compared to the Hasbro counterpart and you will see what I mean:

Yeah, Takara's looks better. Bigger better flames (particularly noticable in truck mode), better chest paint, the head is properly painted with the silver details.

Thanks to Snakas' Blog, we've got images of a new Transformers: The Last Knight toy released as a free gift through the September issue of Japan's TV Magazine -- Burning Megatron! Molded entirely in red plastic with some gold detailing, this redeco of the previously-released Legion-class TLK Megatron comes bundled with a few cardboard cutouts of TLK Optimus Prime, Squeaks, Bumblebee, Drift and Grimlock to fight. Take a look at the images below and tell us if you plan on getting your hands on this in the forums!
