    Default Upcoming JP GEN toy images

    Images of the August to November Generations toys in Japan have been found...

    TG21 Springer (August 31)
    TG22 Blitzwing (August 31)

    TG24 Legends Optimus/Roller & Bumblebee/Blazemaster (September)
    TG25 Orion Pax & Megatronus (October)


    TG26 Gold Bumblebee (Goldbug) (November)
    TG27 Hoist & Trailbreaker (November)

    The Gold Bumblebee is only half shiny so that the robot mode is golden, but the vehicle mode is yellow... like how a lot of the United toys were (which spoiled some of them).

    Am I the only one that hates that green on Springer?

    I'd be curious to see if they've tried to address the shoulder issue on Blitzwing.

    The green on Springer was an instant turn off.
    But the more I compare pictures, the more it is growing on me compared to the BRIGHT green on Hasbro version.

    As usual the Japanese releases have much more focused colour schemes and better paint aps.

    Hoist, Megatron and Trailbreaker(cutter) look so much better.

    I must admit I don't like Springer's green as much as the bright Hasbro lime colour, but Taktomys version does look a lot less haphazard in helicopter mode.

    Think I'll be waiting a few months extra for some of these new Generations toys.

    Trailbreaker and Hoist in one convenient package. Thanks Takara!

    Were the Springer and Blitzwing displayed at this year's Tokyo Toy Show the US versions? I swear they looked different. Blitzwing had a shiny helmet but no other really noticeable changes.
    Anyway, not liking Springer's deco either, but Blitzwing looks nice.

    I like the paint jobs on Trailbreaker/cutter and Hoist, might wait off till they are released before buying them

    Hoist looks nice and fresh. So does Trailbreaker. Unfortunately can't say the same about Springer.

    Also curious to see if any issues are fixed with the shoulders on Blitzwing too.
