Transformers EZ Chronicle Gum Series

Posted on 05-08-2012 at 03:05 PM by Sol Fury under Japanese Transformers

Here's a new release for those who missed out on some of the Reveal the Shield Legends Class toys the last time out. Kabaya and Takara-Tomy are furthering their partnership by releasing five EZ Collection toys (Legends or Cyberverse Legion to Western audiences). The five toys to be released are EZ Chronicle Generation 2 Optimus Prime, Generation 2 Megatron, Rodimus, Prowl and Starscream. They may be unaltered from their previous release in the Transformers United EZ Chronicle series, but indications are that the five may actually have slight variations in their deco - at the very least, Starscream's gray sections look darker and shinier than the last time out, and Rodimus looks a little shinier too. Could these be metallic versions like the Kabaya Micron series of ten years ago?

Check out the listing on Amazon Japan. They are due to hit Japanese grocery stores at the end of July this year.

They can't even transform LEGENDS correctly?

Hint: look at megs

Oh boy, looks like I'll be chewing on some crappy gum this summer.

Skywarp or GTFO

TBF though, Silverscream is pretty boss...

Hrm. I'd buy one, actually. Despite the fact I have 4/5 of the molds.

I was on the fence about getting a Prowl earlier.

I desperately want that Megs.

That Screamer looks gorgeous and mine has serious paint wear (the canopy is scratched pretty bad... he was like that out of the box, I couldn't see the jet-mode canopy in packaging), so I wouldn't mind a replacement (I'd rather have a Thundercracker, of course).

Prime... exists.

I have the DotM version of that Hot Rod, so a more classic version would be appreciated.

Is it weird that i actually like Kabaya gum?

Reflector Prime

These are clearly all metallic versions, plus Optimus has black legs, you don't need speculative question marks.

Shin-Gouki

Want Prime and Megs, but then again I am a sucker for anything with G2 Faction Symbols.

Yes. But I hate fruit flavour gum.

That could just be photoshopping... Box pictures are always airbrushed. Why would they release versions that are all the same as a previous release, just metallic? Usually when they do that they say least change SOME piece of the decos...

Legends Toys and bad gum together!?

CRAP! RTS Starscream was a pain to track down, and I just found EZ Skywarp & Thundercracker at a descent price, now I'm gonna have to be on the look out for that Starscream. I hope this is easier to get ahold of....this mold is quickly becoming a pain in my arse.

Right now though the box pictures could go either way, so I figure I'll hedge my bets.

Toys I don't own AND gum I like (while the flavor lasts)? Sign me up!

Protoman

Oh F.

A MINOR Rodimus variant..........

Aernaroth

You guys are crazy that gum rules except when you open a kabaya that's like ten years old and its rock hard and lacerates the inside of your mouth and makes you sick.

I'm glad I'm not alone on with this sickness, lol.

Hopefully these are easy to track down.
