One of next month's toy/hobby magazine in Japan has featured (http://www.seibertron.com/transformers/news/new-scans-takara-tomy-transformers-go-generations-and-more/27355/) the new Autobot combiner moulds of GO!, along with MP12T Tigertrack and Generations Ratbat, Grimlock and Metroplex.

Good to see that Tigertrack wasn't cancelled, as we haven't heard much of it lately. And Metroplex has some noticeable colour variations to the Hasbro version (bronze shiny bits to it).

The GO! toys are going to be highly prized when they get released, as they aren't likely to be released by Hasbro.

MP12t looks yummy. Just not so impressed with the pricing considering its a reprint.
Metroplex better have more since its more pricey than the hasbro version.

I am loving the Super Robot/Brave homage Transformers GO! toys. And they're Voyager size? Their combined forms are gonna be huge!

He has black jackhammers. No one else has had black jackhammers. :) (And jackhammers are new for a standard mould - they were just a bonus with Sideswipe.)

They don't show the combined mode/s. What a tease!

OKay, so 2 combiners? One made up of Beasts the other of Vehicles.... or are these just the same characters and a bit of reformatting happened in the storyline. Or one's a Decepticon, and the other an Autobot?

Hmmm back to the blocky aesthetic ei.... Oh well it works:D:D

They might be different sides. I think (I can't see the characters well, thanks to Robotkingdoms watermark:mad:) that the team of vehicles is a Samurai team and the beasts are a Ninja team.

I wonder if the robots are interchangeable between teams? Oh my my my. I might get the beasts...

They're all Autobots. According to Figure King magazine the Samurai teams motif consists of
Kenzan the police car with samurai top knot
Jinbu the jet with armoured samurai Kabuto helmet and
Gano the fire engine being a warrior monk.

The ninja team is made up of
Gekisomaru the lion
Hishomaru the phoenix and
Sensuimaru the shark
