Man, that Mini-Con shield is pretty friggin' boss.

Yeah, those shield Mini-Cons are being sold separately in the Gashapon line, just not in gold.

Looks like they may have given the RiD mold a show-accurate paint job?

I've already got FE Prime (is it FE Prime?) and I have those three Microns on order at BBTS. Only thing I'm really missing is Prime's normal Targetmaster, but I'm sure they'll put it out somehow in another color by itself like some of the others...

Ya, hopefully they are going to start painting figures again.

Maybe they will show darkness megatron soon and he might be painted. He did cost a bit more

That isn't the FE mold pictured, the the normal PRiD mold.

I guess we'll be seeing a lot of repacks along these lines.

The battle shield looks not bad though.

They're not Gashapon microns, just singly-packed Microns (no trading or random element to them), but yeah just different colors for three of the microns that are being offered singly as part of the AMW series.

AMW-07 Puraru
AMW-08 Sisu
AMW-09 Jazz

It's the PRID mold, and it looks so much better in the proper colours.

As long as the shield microns are a different color from the individual releases, I guess I'll be getting this.

I don't even collect prime figures but I might pick this one up lol.

Oh hai Skyboom Shield.

This looks so much better than the ones out so far, might grab if is right

Nice paint job. I may try to get this one!

Sigh...another Prime to track down...

He comes with a cardboard trailer? Is that what I'm seeing?

So when's the release date? This'll be the only prime figure I buy

A) That deco makes that mold look FANTASTIC.

B) Those look like the best Minicon combiners to date.

Love this, but still going to stick with my FE Prime and keep the individual Microns on preorder!

I already have the PRiD Optimus. A shield and papercraft trailer don't make me need another PRiD Optimus. The colors are nicer, but eh. That mold.

Not bad. But it's probably still gonna make me put on stickers. Boo.

awesome now if only they made megatron with the star saber or requlium blaster

The Star Saber is, I believe, all the Wave 1 Autobot Arms Micron comined into a large sword.

While the couple of Microns I have are neat, I just don't see myself buying this mold again with a new hat. I think I have decided to stay (for the most part) away from Takara Prime figures and just hope that we get most of the figures domestically.

lks like it's august release date awesome. Got some time to regenerate wallet.

The combined form of the minicons looks pretty bad. They look better individually

This set comes with additonal AM,sweet

Looks much better without clear forearms. I'll still just stick to my FE though.

The colors are less inaccurate, but still not accurate. I'll stick with Reprolabels to fix the colors (apart from his arms) and buy the microns separately.

wow...those minicons look completely retarded in bot mode. but since the japanese foam at the crotch for minicons, we'll be seeing the mandatory black, gold, and clear iterations of them...because the japanese are masters of originality.

Me too.

I can't look at that shield without thinking it belongs in a video game.
Shoot the power nodes for maximum damage!

Eitherway, I'm tempted to pick this one up. Cool looking Optimus and a decent number of Microns. Just waiting on price.

What are those microns separately? A fat sword, half of a spear, and... a sting ray?

I'd been wondering what Sais is since I first saw him..... a table tennis bat?

They never learn their lesson with this 'papercraft trailer' BS, do they? I can understand the minority appeal, and that some people might think it's fun, but for chrissakes, if you're going to give us a trailer then give us a F*$^ING REAL ONE!!!

ugh. more money to spend!
Also, somebody needs to re-release the FE Prime in Takaratomy colors... :

I wish I could have that!

The shield is paying homepage to Armada Star Sabre,sweet

They're still clear... clear black. Look at his right arm toward the elbow. You can see that it's clear, still.

Exactly, and it's the same plastic that's used in the chest/winshield. So now Prime has a mad privacy-tint thing going on. Not an improvement IMHO.

Still has stickers as well though the extra red paint on the chest/cab is welcomed.

Prime looks great, but I'm not really liking the shield microns. Individually they look alright, but combined they have weird anime vibe going on that just doesn't fit the aesthetic. I'll stick to the arms microns, thanks.

''weird Anime vibe'' = IMHO, teh AWESOME.

Digging the more show accurate colors on their version of PRiD OP (no more tranclearant blue plastic forearms!) but the shield is a mixed bag. I like the fact they all combine to form a neat molded shield but wish the colors of each one were more uniform. The end result looks like some patchwork hodge-podge mess that only a Junkion would find fashionable. If I find this for a decent price in Japan when I go visit again later this year, I may pick it up.

I have to say that actually looks very cool and would love to see a version of that make it's way to the states. Preferably the minicons as a set because I don't need another Prime.

Well, technically, you can order them individually in different colors right now.

AMW07 Arms Micron D - Transformers Prime Japanese Figures
AMW08 Arms Micron E - Transformers Prime Japanese Figures
AMW09 Arms Micron F - Transformers Prime Japanese Figures

As for a US release, I wouldn't hold your breath... Though they'd make the PERFECT little freebie for regular admission Botcon goers (not part of a set, but for the people who pay "at the door" just to check it out). No paint necessary, and just a few little stickers.

This confirms something for me: I really like the FE Mold better. Not that the RiD mold is bad, but actually seeing a RiD mold with decent colors and weapons I like more than the FE, I still like the FE version more.

I wonder if this will get a U.S. release in some form?
