I thought you were into detail or accurate homages?

Quite an exciting night at Seibertron, but it isn't last call yet! Once again we have Alfes2010 bringing us some more Tokyo Toy Show coverage, this time for TakaraTomy Transformers Adventure TAV-18 Drift, TAV-22 Sideswipe, and TAV-23 Jazz! Naturally these guys differ from their Hasbro brethren by having additional paint apps, making them slightly more desirable to some of us. See the boys below, and stay tuned to Seibertron.com: home for the best Galleries and Conversation around!

The white dot is G1 cartoon accurate. Deal with it.

WHAM! Here we go, in all it's ridiculness glory! :lol:

If anyone have the Takara version of him could tell if he hold himself better together in plane mode than the Hasbro, it would be appreciated.

End of June Mon ami!

Btw, based on this pic, I don't think PG has a circle indent on his chest for that scan game gimmick.

And the gray lighter.

Once again Takara has fufilled our expectations with highly detailed toys than Hasbro. Keep up the good work! ;)^

YES!!!!!!!!! Jazz and Optimus were back in stock for a fraction of a second at amiami and I scooped them both up. What impresses me on that Jazz are those small horizontal lines on the hood of his car. It's a nice attention to detail and helps break up the white a bit more. I couldnt see it until these new pics.

Never noticed it in G1. But cartoon accuracy doesnt matter if theyre gonna remold the chest to put a stupid white circle sticker. They ruined it...

I dont gotta deal with it, I got the hasbro. :lol:

Call it what you want, but in reality its the G1 animators homaging a screw hole. Even though its cartoon accurate, knowing what inspired the artists to draw it makes it super annoying. Alot of transformers toys have screws in their rear ends, so maybe the cartoon animators should draw them all with butt holes. :-?

Someone really needs to see an optometrist and not just type for the sake of typing a post.

It's final. Unless there'll be a second batch Optimus, Jazz and Sideswipe SOLD OUT at amiami. I still haven't seen this at hlj so if you can find a link, please update the thread.

PS: Am I the only one who preffers the reveals of this thread over all the others? I think its how superior the decos are and how cheap these toys are (they are at a lower price point compared to the legends line in Japan). And that Optimus... MAN! I missed having full blown leader toys, its just too bad I wont know what he is saying.

Some light but yet interesting news comes to us from taghobby.com. They have a scan of a page from the newest Figure King Magazine which sports a bunch of new Takara Tomy Transformers Adventure figures. However, instead of being under the TAV moniker, they are all under a new Clash of the Transformers line and it seems they are related to the recent Hasbro figures found in Australia under that title.

The three deluxe (warrior) sized Clash figures were all predicted and found on the app and images from that app can be found below for comparison. These seem to be the exact decos found on the app which makes you wonder if these are the Hasbro toys themselves.

These Clash of the Transformers figures are Bumblebee, SIdeswipe and Optimus, the later of which would technically be a redeco of Nemesis Prime for Takara since they never released that mold in the traditional Optimus colours that were found on the Hasbro release. Clash of the Transformers Megatronus is also found on the image though it is unclear if the image shows the recently revealed Hasbro 5 step toy or the Takara version of that toy. TRU Japan Exclusive Movie Advanced Black Knight Optimus Prime is also pictured on the page.

Technically, we have 4 "Clash of the Transformers" figures, that Megatronus is part of the line. The names are:

Optimus Prime Clash of the Transformers Version
Bumblebee Clash of the Transformers Version
Sideswipe Clash of the Transformers Version
Big Megatronus Clash of the Transformers Version

Still part of Transformers Adventure, and Toys 'R Us Japan Exclusives, along with Lost Age Black Knight Optimus Prime.

But it seems the Big Megatronus is not part of the Clash subline for Hasbro right? And do you think the decos will be any different?
