Generations 2020 book for December 10th

The annual Japanese guidebook of Transformers toys is becoming more reliably annular, with the next volume coming out on the same day as the 2019 edition - December 10th.
No details or images yet, or even pre-order listings, but when they do, they will be noted.


I don't know why the more recent volumes are now using the following year on the title, as they are primarily featuring the toys from the year that is just ending, like a yearbook that looks back over the past year of toys, while giving a small sneak peek at a few items from the from the next year just to tease us.

The cover has been revealed by tweet from the publisher.
Pre-order listings should be up soon, if not already, as it is less than 3 weeks from release.

I'm very tempted to get this, I imagine it has a lot of information about Unicron in it.

The book is now up on Amazon Japan, for release in just 6 days time, for 3190yen (about AU$50). (it doesn't look like HJL are stocking it this time, or just haven't listed it yet)

It has also been revealed by tweet that the mini-comic inside this volume, will be drawn by Satoshi Urushihara.

I tried to preorder from Amazon.Jp the other day and got a "we can not send any physical items outside of Japan" message.

I've ordered books from them in the past (and have a specific Amazon.co.jp login) but it's been a while. Bit annoying.

Yeah, they stopped shipping everything to here when the GST thing started. :(

That cover is beautiful. Wish I could get my hands on a copy.

It’s up on HLJ now....

Thanks. Ordered. Should get it shipped with Hound in the new year

HLJ link for those who need it.

Just remember, HLJ will add on GST to the total.

I'd quite like the book, but considering I just shelled out $50 for the TF Visual History book I might be pushing my luck by spending another $44 on a similar product

HLJ have updated their listing with a "JAN release". I don't know what could be the delay, but I hope they are still getting it, as it is easier to go through them than get it from Amazon JP.

B.B. v2, BA, Hound and book for me...

And mines arrived....

Pages are so thick!! And the MP Poster is amazing...

I should get mine shipped too... I had the book and MP Hound come through at the same time and wanted to hold them until MP Lioconvoy is released, but just remembered that they only hold things for 60 days, not 90... and Lioconvoy could just miss the window by a couple days. :(
