Hat tip goes out to TFW2005 boards member cliffjumper15 for sharing with us a video posted on the Japanese website Niconico. The video shows off new iPhone cases in celebration of the 30th Anniversary of Transformers, which will include a G1 Optimus Prime, a G1 Megatron, and two other cases that look to show off both the Autobot cast and Decepticon cast.
At this time no ordering information appears to be available, but according to the video the cases may be “rimited,” which we can assume was a typo and means limited release.
Check out the full video here and discuss after the jump!

This times 1000. I have an S3. It is so difficult to find any decent TF cases. I usually end up making my own.

If this was $3-$5 then I'd consider it.

Hopefully they'll be available in the US as well….not just Japan.
And for other models of phones as well….not everybody likes to carry around a brick…

Amen
I have never had an iPhone. It has been Android phones for me.

They're up for preorder on AmiAmi, and I believe HLJ already has preorders up, too. I don't really like them because of the corners that stick out, though. They look nice, but the extra size and odd shape that comes with those corners just puts me off wanting to buy one.

I believe it's because of Apple's marketing. Making exclusives accessories and apps just for iphone is why it's so popular. Hell, I used to own a Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 but I traded it in for an ipad since it was the only tablet that had Batman Arkham games.

My old 3G works fine (with some creative firmware to get around Apple trying to force people into new ones with updates that don't work on old ones that make Apps impossible to get/upgrade) and one of my kids uses it to this day. I'm on my 3rd Android myself and have never looked back.

Those look very nice.
I agree.

I won't pay too much for one – so I probably won't get it, considering it's a Rimited Edition Japanese exclusive. I won't even seek it out if it has any Bayness to it.

Not to mention that some of us prefer to keep our older models while they're still perfectly functional, rather than upgrading whenever a new one comes out.

Ugh I wish phone accessory makers would wake up and realize that there are a LOT more phones out there than iPhones.
