Pre-orders Begin for MPG-17 Optimus Prime Style Generation Figure

Posted 2 days ago by Emerje - 9,476 views

Pre-orders have begun for MPG-17 Optimus Prime Style Generation and it may not be the figure that many of us thought it was. The use of "Generation" in the name of this new ongoing aesthetic series makes it sound like the figure would be at the Generations scale like MPG-09 Super Ginrai, but it turns out that's not the case. Store listings are placing Prime at 245mm putting him closer in line with MP-10 and MP-44. Just when we think we have the MPG line figured out Takara Tomy finds new ways - Read More

Transformers Toys are about to get Pricier as Trump Places Hefty Tariffs on Vietnam and Japan

Posted 4 days ago by william-james88 - 17,125 views

It's liberation day, with Trump placing the highest US tariffs of the generation against nations which are at the centre of our beloved Transformers toy brand. Firstly, all US imports will have a 10% tax. This part is not inherently out of line when compared to how the rest of the world functions, with a federal tax on imported goods to compensate for a loss of sales tax from a domestic sale. However, there are also what's been erroneously referred to as "reciprocal tariffs" which is a duty - Read More

Posted 7 days ago by william-james88 - 20,883 views

We share with you the sad news that veteran actor and voice artist Clive Revill has passed away at the age of 94.

Star Wars fans may remember the eerie and distinct voice of Palpatine as it first appeared via hologram — and that voice belonged to Revill. Clive Revill also lent his talents to the role of Alfred - Read More

Takara Reveals a Generations Style Masterpiece Optimus Prime

Posted 9 days ago by william-james88 - 38,604 views

Takara has revealed a new Masterpiece Optimus Prime through a post on X. This Optimus Prime is their take on what the Masterpiece version of a current generations Optimus Prime would be. Now that gets confusing and disorienting since the generations toys, especially the SS86 ones, have been becoming mini masterpiece toys, being more and more faithful to the G1 cartoon. But Takara is going the other way, with basically seeing the Earthrise Optimus Prime toy as its own design, independent of G1 - Read More

Posted 20 days ago by william-james88 - 62,697 views

Takara's Transformers Wild King line has finally been officially revealed. Below are the images along with the price points.
