[MayzaPrime]

Damn!!! They are some fine ladies :p

Nice to finally see Groove :)

That deco looks so good on Blackarachnia! :D


Also, some TF adventures pics on seibertron (http://www.seibertron.com/transformers/news/tokyo-toy-show-2015-transformers-adventure-line-optimus-jazz-and-sideswipe-images/33235/)

Mainly posting because it shows Takara's deco for Jazz, where they actually painted his rear window and gave him a decent pair of pants.

Sideswipe looks the same as Hasbro's, but there might be subtle differences, and the big Optimus comes with a bunch of weapons.

Hmm...they removed the red stripes on Hotspot? I thought Takara wants to be more g1 accurate?:confused:

[CBratron]

Slipstream looks good in metallics.

Yep and yep! :D

I'm not totally sold on the clear plastic parts of Blackarachnia but she does look good in those colours. Nightbird is an odd optical illusion, I keep not seeing the black car parts so she looks like a lean grey cartoon-like robot.

Groove looks really cool, not really a fan of Defensor's chest plate, and I'd like to see the other modes of the Protectobots before judging (Can't tell much with First Aid or Streetwise) but it looks like Blades is going to be more G1 accurate.

I'm damn glad I got a pre-order in for Slipstream - she looks great! Blackarachnia is cool too, but not convinced on Nightbird. Might keep the pre-order and sell to someone here, but I'll make up my mind later.

Does that red Deception symbol on Slipstream mean anything? I hope it's not a shattered glass type thing, but we did see that on Starscream's "Seekers" in Prime...

That display of the RiD/TAV figures looks epic, almost straight out of the cartoon (with bonus characters added in)

I was just going to post that myself... it's a very nice touch, if you have it displayed somewhere with a darker background. It ends up looking like more like Nightbird than an Arcee mould because of the "disappearance" of the backpack.

What's with the Leader Megatron? Looks like a Dark Energon version released by Hasbro Asia (TF asia) with lighter grey and purple...

[Bidoofdude]

Takara's Defensor looks kind of meh, beyond maybe First Aid's more white alt mode (which I prefer).

The fembots are pretty cool. I was expecting more matte colours on Slipstream , but they do look good in metallic. Blackarachnia's nice, as is Nightbird. I might pick up Blackarachnia, if Hasbro makes one.

[Lord_Zed]

I'm liking all 4 lady bots.

TakTom Menasor and Defensor don't really do it for me, Grove or not but then neither do Hasbro's version. Superion seems to still be the best of the bunch, and the Japanese one is the best of the two.

Ninja mind tricks!

The ongoing project to create a human-sized transforming Transformer has reached another stage, with a 4 foot (1.3 meter) version now being shown off at the Toy Show (http://news.tfw2005.com/2015/06/18/takaratomy-shows-off-transforming-bumblebee-robot-at-tokyo-toy-show-2015-293278).

Thanks for that, after seeing the decos, imo, Defensor is 3/2 in Hasbro's favour - I prefer Hasbro's Hotspot, Streetwise & First Aid, while Takara has Groove and a very nice deco for Blades (as nice as the Hasbro one is, it's very red)

[CBratron]

Looks like I won't need that Botcon Slipstream after all.

Oh another exclusive but Darkness Megs on the left still looks better than Nightmare on the right

Still doesn't mask the fact that it's a crap toy. Like puttin' lipstick on a pig... :p
