The 2024 Shizuoka Hobby Show 2024 is currently taking place in Japan and Takara is present. It has unveiled the AMT line which is turning previous highly detailed and stylized model kits into transforming figures. The first one shown is AMT-01 Rodimus, which is based on Flame Toys Kuro Kara Kuri Rodimus. There will also be a Predaking coming in this line. Independently of all this, we also have a preview for a Leo Prime figure along with a first in hand look at the rerelease of MPM 3 Bumblebee in a more accurate, the upcoming exclusive movie Optimus Prime based on SS Crosshairs, MPG Super Ginrai and Missing Link Bumblebee and Cliffjumper.

Whoa, that new deco on MPM-3 looks excellent! Love the more accurate yellow and especially the new alt mode stripes. Wonder if we’ll see this for the other MPMs, as most of them up until Blackout had inaccurate colors.

The Predaking has me intrigued. If the combined form is 12-13 inches to scale with the combiner toys from the past decade, I would defnitely go for it. If its bigger (closer to PotP Predaking) ill pass.

Regardless of size, if the finished product screams "Call of the Primitives" at me, I'm sold.
TO THE END!

Rodimus looks fantastic, but he’ll probably be obscenely expensive. Car mode looks even more impressive, but transformation is going to be so complex….
Also, that BB is looking pretty nice. May try to get that one if it’s not too expensive.

I don't think it can be overstated how big of a deal that Rodimus is. This is the first time that Hasbro has allowed another company to make a proper transforming figure of one of their characters. Previous ones have been sneakers, hats, pens and whatnot, but not a bot mode and alt mode based on something specific to Hasbro. The closest we've gotten is the ES Gokin Roadbuster, but that was a super deformed figure so it sort of gets around that. Also all of these are closer to Takara Tomy than Hasbro while Fame Toys tends to do things based directly on Hasbro's licenses.
Really groundbreaking stuff. Can't wait to see what Predaking looks like.
Can't wait to see what that Lio Convoy looks like, I guess this will be our toy colors Masterpiece we never got.

I'd be down for Roddy. But what's the price? It can't be cheap.

I'll be honest, I'm more excited for the Brave releases.

I am beyond stoked for this.
That Rodimus is a dream come true for me, it will most likely not be cheap, but imma need it!!!
Missing link Cliff looks great!
MPG Ginrai looks great too! Much better in hand compared to the renders.
MPM3 with new paint? I'm down!

Same here, hopefully that'll mean HasTak will also be more considerate on the kibble as well, we don't need those massive pillars on Headstrong and Tantrum again!

Is there a Brave thread here or did everyone interested in Brave leave?

I have no real attachment to Brave, but I would not be opposed to a King Exkaiser in Generations style. Y’know…. Commander Class…

Yeah, that prototype looks great. hope they can make a Dragon Kaiser there too, just to complete the set.

That Rodimus is a thing of beauty. Of course, It'll probably be hella expensive.
MPG Ginrai is a definite buy. That's a beautiful figure, I've wanted an articulated one for 30 years now.

Bummer. It wasn't before.
Takara really needs to stop privating so many of their videos a few days after they upload them.

But nobody is really missing anything here, right? It was just showcasing the same line art from the event.
