    Just received an order sheet for new figures from Takara with a QT designation. Not sure whether this is something new or if we've heard of it already. Here are the details:

    QT-01 Optimus Prime
    QT-02 Bumblebee
    QT-03 Lockdown
    QT-04 Crosshairs
    QT-05 Countach Lambor
    QT-06 Fairlady Z Prowl
    QT-07 86 Rodimus
    QT-08 Copen Bumble

    1 through 6 are to be released on 11-22-14 &
    7 and 8 on 12-13-14

    Also, do we know about the Advanced Series AD-31 Silver Knight Optimus Prime? Release date is 11-15-14 and it looks to be a Leader Class figure.

    methinks "QT" stands for "quick Transformation" so Japanese release of One step changers?

    QT-05 isn't translated correctly. It's Countach Lambor, aka Sideswipe.

    Ah yes, that's very possible but the '86 Rodimus and the Fairlady Z Prowl don't fit the bill.

    Unless they are making more One Step changer molds using G1 alt modes.

    Knowing the prices on these would help us determine if they're the one-step changers or not...

    I thought there was a one-step Prowl shown at Botcon, which would explain the listing.

    Considering Takara puts out every piece of "kiddy shit" same as hasbro, your hopes are in vain.

    Interesting, this could be confirmation that takara is not releasing any stingers, as he is not on the list.

    Weren't a lot of the AOE 1-step changers already listed under the LA numbering system though? Or were those the Power Battlers?

    Hasbro and Takara make lots of things for different ages and kids, not every toy released is meant to be for you.

    You're right, but most of the powered attackers haven't even been shown yet by takara. Quick doesn't necessarily mean one step does it?
