Optimus, Jazz, Starscream and Megatron 4cm tall gacha figures, rrp ¥300 each, releasing in December.
They finally replaced Bumblebee with Jazz, haha. :o
Just me then? :p
HLJ has a preorder up already, ¥2400 for a box of 8
http://hlj.com/product/TTA83586
You'd think you'd get all of them in a box of 8 but I totally missed Lockdown out of the QTF chibi capsules, so still a gamble.
Very cute but they look quite similar to the Kabaya pack that was released last year.
Strange that you missed out on a fig from the pack of 8 QTFs. My HLJ order for this hit a discontinued and then cancellation. Ah well... :rolleyes:
Well, it's no surprise, given the character.Quote:

Man that's really frustrating. :/ HLJ needs to work on handling their inventory better, stuff like that seems to be happening more often with them. Did you end up finding the set somewhere else? Theres one on ebay, and quite a few on yahoo japan and rakuten if you use a proxy.Quote:

Ya got me. It's the only reason I took Japanese in highschool. :DQuote:

I'm glad they finally added a different character. Would've been nice if they swapped Soundwave for Starscream. I don't mind these type of minifigs, but I wish they would have a bit more character variety. Op, Megs and Starscream really just start to look all the same in these type of lines. Only so much design variation can be made with something this small.
They look neat, I won't be buying a whole box just so I can get a Jazz but if someone has a spare Jazz they want to get rid of, I'll take it off your hands.
Nice! I just ordered a box - with them due in December any doubles I get can be stocking stuffers for the kids :DQuote:

in case anyone was still on the fence :p
There's a note on the page saying "sample under developement" so the actual products might differ.
The second wave has been announced for June, and said to include new figures Ironhide and Soundwave, with redecos Skywarp (from Starscream) and Black Convoy (because it wouldn't be Japanese if there wasn't a black redeco somewhere).
I have the first wave and they're cute little figures although I only intend to keep Optimus.Quote:

Images of the second wave foursome.
It says that they are only 4cm tall... that's tiny - a lot smaller than I thought.
Yeah, they're around the same size as decoys or kreons.
Yeah I got the first wave and they are really tiny! That small that as much as I like them I won't be purchasing any more.Quote:
