Tokyo Toy Show 2015 is under way and Blogger/Tweeter Alfes2010 is there snapping shots of TakaraTomy Transformers Legends: LG-EX Black Convoy & Aramada Megatron! As you all know by now, these figures are TakaraTomy's takes on TFCC Scourge and Combiner Wars Leader Armada Megatron with some different deco choices. Alfes just managed to have the American counterparts on hand and included them for some terrific comparisons. See them below, and stay tuned to Seibertron.com: home for the best Galleries and Conversation around!

Any idea on if BA will have the same web/claw weapon as the Animated one? It would suck if she didn't.

Given the pics we've seen so far, it doesn't look like it....

Whelp, its about time to sign off folks. But one last parting gift for the night that's great but not newsworthy on its own, some up close's of the ladies!

Takara's "Armada" Megatron is clearly superior, but the TFCC and Takara RiD Scourges are way too close to call.

Slipstream looks like a really bad kitty! Nice!

It looks like there's an almost cute spider on BA's chest.

This will go nicely on my updated Beast Wars shelf. I'm loving all of these lovely (and dangerous!) ladies.

I went to the Tokyo You show on Saturday at 2pm with a Japanese friend. All the Megatrons and Scourges were sold out. My Japanese friend was shocked, as she wanted to buy Megatron for her son. She didn't understand why they sold out, considering she could easily get the special toys at the previous Transformers exhibition a while back. I simply explained that "This show is free entry, do every scalper from Japan, America and Hong Kong has come here, with their cronies, and bought them all up to sell at extortionate process. They online. They don't care about the fact that toys at a kids you show are for kids, and not does Takara at this point, either."

She went to toys r us and got him the G1 version instead.

Anyway, Takara were bang out of order for not making enough this year and/or not restricting some of the toys for kids only. It's not a collectors' show like winner festival. It's a kids' event.

The only thing off about her deco is the use of translucent effects for her chest.

What's wrong with a female to wear translucent things?

Nothing, don't like women being translucent.

It's much better if they are "transparent" :lol:

when they express their feelings. As for their clothing, I'd prefer diaphanous ones 8-}

Isn't this Transformers Legends Thread? Figures in the line are modern updates of the characters we know. Accuracy as in show accurate, more or less belongs to the MP line.

Legends Arcee for instance has those energon blades, from IDW but this version was given the 1986 Movie deco.

Blackwidow more or less from the TFA mold........really not accurate from the original BW fig.

Yeah exactly, this toy is based on a mold for another rendition of the character from a different show and different toyline so obviously it wont be accurate 100%. This isn't an original BW Blackarachnia mold, it never was, so I dont see why anything beyond the deco is in question.

Nothing beyond the deco is in question... the paint/plastic colors are not accurate, and neither are the applications. They nailed Arcee, Chromia, and Windblade, so I don't understand why this is so wonky
