    Wonder if they're trying to get in on the super-posable action figure market.

    Wow, that would be awesome! I'd love some super detailed & poseable Transformers from Takara. That's got to be Megatron, looks like he'll be highly stylized though. Maybe kind of animated looking? This is exciting.

    He looks as if he transforms, otherwise I can't figure why the proportions, especially the shoulder kibble, would be as it appears...

    I hope they're better then the Revoltechs were!

    Sure will. In a perfect world Bandai would've been allowed to do D-Arts of them. But I'm still going to look forward to this!

    T-arts was the brand used to sell the Arms Microns Character Microns.

    I know I'd certainly welcome more of them, I suspect it will be some sort of non-Transforming brand though - Takara certainly like doing that sort of thing from time to time.

    isn't t-arts too close to d-arts from bandai? won't they deal with copyright issues being too close a name?
