Colour images of October Japanese Fem-bots

In October there will be three more "Generations" style Female Transformers in the Japanese Legends line - Slipstream, Nightbird, Blackarachnia.

The full colour images are now being released, showing off the changes to the original toys.

First up are Slipstream and Blackarachnia (http://news.tfw2005.com/2015/08/17/in-hand-image-of-legends-lg-16-slipstream-and-lg-17-blackarachnia-299820), tweeted by the usual TakaraTomy Designer Hisashi Yuki.

These are not likely to be released by Hasbro.

I've got these two on order (not fussed with Nightbird) - colours look good

Some more images from Yuki of Slipstream (http://news.tfw2005.com/2015/08/18/more-in-hand-images-of-legends-lg-16-slipstream-and-lg-17-blackarachnia-299892), with Nightbird partially obscured in one photo.


I'm quite impressed with the metallic shine on Slipstream. It's almost looking like those Hasbro photoshopped images that are made to look shiny, but never do as toys.
I'm glad I got these three on pre-order (at HLJ, which still has them available as of yesterday).

After seeing these latest pics I need to go over to Mong Kok and pre-order these girls. If they are anything like the Combiner Warriors I will be most impressed (although I'll be purchasing them for my daughter's collection).

(although I'll be purchasing them for my daughter's collection).

that's the official story at least. ;)


I have slipstream and nightbird on pre-order, not so fussed about blackarachnia, I kind of expect a generations update of her in the same vein as the other beast wars characters we've seen lately.

the mould changes on slipstream are quite impressive
