Good evening from Japan. It is cold yesterday because it snowed in Tokyo. I purchased TV-BOY(TV-kun) which was a magazine for Japanese infants. I introduce some images.
This is so awesome that there are no words. The Microns also make things about the RID line, like CJ not having the built-in blasters make sense.
Masabon, thank you for sharing the video and pictures. The video was the coolest thing that I have seen this week. I am definitely glad that I preordered the Japan versions. The minicons are worth it.
that's pretty cool. The the Gunblade Optimus is holding is called the Starsaber? Awesome. I can't wait to see what Megatron's turns into (not the simple one shown yesterday, but the other possibilities).
You and me both. I went to Midori Denka, Izumiya, Best Denki, and Joshin today and none of the carry Transformers Prime or any Transformer toys--I hope that changes come the end of this month. Toys R Us is a bit far from my place, and I'd hate to have to go there to get them when other stores are much closer:/ Kamen Rider, Go Buster and the like are still much more popular than Transformers (at the moment).
I wonder if "build your own Minicon" "apply stickers yourself" appeal to the kids. (My son seems to be interested, but he is a bit older). *cross fingers*
My son's 4 and he loves Transformers just as much as all other super hero shows/toys over here...though because of my interest in the Transformers he might like them a bit more. After seeing the AM-01 Optimus Prime in the display case at Toys R Us yesterday, my son told me that he wants to Transformer Prime toys--he didn't even bother to look at the Kamen Rider or Gobuster toys this time around. Maybe this is a sign...though my son isn't exactly into the same things most children are into, so I guess time will tell. I hope it succeeds, as it really does suck having to go way out of my way to take my son to a toy store to buy a toy. Sure, I can buy it online, but I don't want to rob him of the excitement of going into a store to pick out the toy he wants. I also hope the Gachapon machines in our area have Arms Microns in them too.
The micron figures look quite interesting. Thanks for sharing, Masabon! Here's hoping Prime will be received well in Japan!
is that deluxe or voyager megatron? i cant tell even though i have both as it looks to be retooled. also skywarp looks so damn good!
What an awesome advert - this is how to sell toys, it was just such a joy to watch, It was deluxe megatron all the way - you can tell because his spikey shoulder pads are actually part of his arm, the voyager has this as a seperate piece. I will stick to the hasbro rid line thankyou very much, but bee is tempting because his yellow looks alot better, cliffy has black sticker windows - ssuuuuuuuuuuucks didnt realise all of ratchets red chest bits are stickers - ddooooouuuuuuble ssuuuuuuuuck I did like how ratchet sizes up to the other RID figures (please not that i put rid in capital letters because im bloody sick and tired of people comparing his size to the fuckin first editions, they are both 2 different scale sizes - and you tube reviews please remember this when you post your videos) i really do not want to see a vid of rid ratchet being compared to FE bee or FE bulk, WoW sorry about that - but the comparrisson thing between fe and rid just bugs the hell out of me (i like rid alot more than fe by the way)
