Thanks to TFW2005 boards member catz for providing us with what looks like a retail list of some upcoming Takara product listings for Transformers Adventure and Q-Transformers. Unfortunately we do not have any images to go along with the listings, so we’ll have to play the guessing game a bit until more information surfaces.
TAV30 Battle Grimlock (Price point says this is big, about 4500 yen – Image included of potential color scheme)
TAV31 Black Shadow (Megatronus?)
TAV32 Ramble & Frenzy (Price point says about 3500 yen: Legends? Minicons?)
TED13 Drift (One Step version)
TED14 Fracture (One Step version)
QT32 Black Megatron (Q Transformers redeco of Megatron)
QT33 Black Convoy (Q Transformers redeco of Convoy)
Stay tuned for more information and images when available.

Same size as FOC Grimlock, it is a retool after all. The prize fits, so no size-up or anything.
It's not impossible but highly unlikely. Black Shadow is already released, I don't see them releasing Drift Origin or Battle Grimlock.
OriginalFire
Here's another question, does anybody think any of these guys will have a North America release
OriginalFire
Can anybody guess how big Grimlock will be
kaijuguy19
I can see them doing at least Megatronus next as well since he has a design that shouldn't be stuck to just being a one step or five step toy.
Autovolt 127
Oh Goddammit.
Fasttrack
Please be a new mould voyager sized Grimlock, please be a new mould voyager sized Grimlock, PLEASE BE A NEW MOULD VOYAGER SIZED GRIMLOCK!
jcchua
Yup, hope this means more will follow suit. I really want a Voyager Underbite. He's too prominent a character to just to be stuck in a small one-step and a Legion class toy. Maybe they'll even get more characters who Hasbro will be skipping over because they're too busy releasing repaints.
Shin Densetsu
IMO the pricepoint given is a bit high for a voyager repaint with new head. I'm leaning more on an all new mold. Plus a new bigger mold is something to be expected from Takara.

And a godawful sticker with a ruined mould.

Takara will give us a pretender shell…
..and maybe perhaps a smaller 'inner robot' plus animation accurate color-scheme
…dont forget his weapons!
Raiyuki
Black Shadow is probably the Generations one. Wonder if it'll be all that different
NemiMonkey
Kind of hoping that Grimlock is the animated version to go with the other Dinobots.
Black Convoy QT you say. Very interested in that.
Nerdicon
Why does grimlock have a silver mustache on his stomach?
wildfly
Wasn't criticsm on my part. Just a statement
Thanks for price info
Autovolt 127
This all sounds promising.
Oh My God I would love that. A Green TFA Grimlock would be perfect. I'd gladly buy that in a heartbeat.
Oh man that'd be great. I've always wanted to get those figures.
Darkstone
Count me in, I really like the design of Grimlock for RID but the Warrior-figure just isn’t cutting it for me. If they do a big transformable figure that is just as show-accurate as their Optimus is Takara gets my money.
dCon
I could see takara repainting the animated grimlock with a new head possible retool with new deco. As someone said on page 1, they did do the other dinos
Whatever it is I'm sure we'll find out soon.
kaijuguy19
I hope that's the case as well. Grimlock like Optimus deserves a larger and better made figure then what the Warrior toy gave us.
