Transformers Toy News

I was recently informed that many Chinese knock-off makers have now realised that there is good money in making high-quality knock-offs of many of the Classic / Henkei figures and to expect plenty of fakes over the next year to of not only these but other high-end Transformers figures.  Well it looks like the weight has already stopped as bot TFW2005.com and KOToys.com have images an information on the first wave of these new KO items, the Million Publishing Henkei Thundercracker and Skywarp along with Electro Disruptor Mirage and the Botcon 2007 clear Mirage.  All of the Henkei figures come in replica packaging and are proving difficult to spot.

KOToys.com  has all the images, where as TFWorld2005.com note that at the moment the Botcon Mirage appears to be a slightly different shade and comes without the rub sign.  You can view the images here, here, here, here and here.

Other new knock-offs (as you may have noticed from that last link) include a blue and white G1 Bumblebee (on card) as well as diecast HFTD Hubcap (in multiple colours).  Yes Die cast! The knock-offs are being made from better materials than the originals!

Finally there are also KO die cast Transformers Animated Activator Bumblebee in  various colour schemes including Skids and Mudflap from Transformers Revenge of the Fallen.

Genzhao comments that these items weight approximately 2.5 times as much as the originals

Remember ALL of these items are fakes

GenZhao has posted some images on KOToys.com of a sample of his upcoming knock-off figure KOLD Toxitron.  The sample is a solid colour version of the toy that he says will most likely end up being glow-in-the-dark but it does look pretty cool.

Transformers Toy News

Snakas has published another round-up of the information in this months hobby magazines that were released in Japan over the last few days. For those that can not understand Japanese, we have published a brief summary below

Figure King 119

There is an article discussing Trans-Scanning Optimus Prime, in particular it discusses how the gimmick works. A image of a prototype is included in the article.

There is a comparison between the original Sky Lynx figure and the upcoming re-issue. Snakas points out that some of the detail, especially on the interior and around the eyes show the the Encore edition have more detail.

Images were shown of Transformers Henkei (the Japanese Transformers Classics line) Optimus Prime, Megatron and Bumblebee. All of the figures were shown to be more cartoon accurate than the western release.

The four AllSpark figures will be released in Japan in February. Images are shown of the toys along with the AllSpark toy itself.

There is yet more confirmation that the Masterpiece Starscream USA edition figure, when release in Japan, will be switched back to the Japanese mold where the tail finds were a slightly different shape to their US release.

More information was included on the green Transformers Encore Emergency Ratchet as well as the Revoltech Starscream and Hot Rodimus.

Finally there is a note that more Star Wars Transformers figures will be released in Japan in 2008

Dengeki Hobby (Blitz Hobby) - Feb issue

Again more comparisons and images on the Encore Skylynx toy, though they are not as detailed as the Figure King article.

Dengeki also includes the images of Transformers Henkei Optimus Prime, Megatron and Starscream.

More images of the Transformers Movie scene figures are shown.

There is an article and more images on the e-Hobby black Ironhide as well as the Revoltech figures and Star Wars Transformers.

Japanese Transformers Movie Incinerator

Snakas notes that going by the images published within the two magazines, and comparing them to the recent eBay auctions for Transformers Movie Incinerator, it appears that the Japanese version of the toy will be a different colour. The Japanese figure is much closer to the the Ospreys that appeared within the live action Transformers Movie, not only in their colour scheme, but also in the number on the side of the helicopter.
