The news as slowly been trickling in today, so we thought it would be worthwhile to share another new image of the Transformers Adventure Runabout figure from Hisashi Yuki. This small update is another outdoors shot, this time Runabout is pictured with the Tokyo Toy Show 2015 Exclusive Nemesis Prime / Black Convoy / Scourge figure, which one has to note the pair look stunning pictured together!
Runabout is scheduled to release later this month on the 29th at a price point of around ¥1300. Enjoy the small update!

Cant wait too see this guy with grand scourge :O

Yeah, those are indeed good news.
The problem now is that these figures are sold out everywhere.

How did you get the axe/spoilers in the back to work?
also you can remove the stickers without an indent….YES!

The headline news with Runabout is he stays on Menasor better than Blackout and the sticker can easily be removed with no indent underneath.

The art reminds me of the G1 homages in the Cybertron line (except these are actually moulds designed for G1 characters).

I'm surprised Yuki never showed us pics of Adventure Runabout as UW Menasor's chest plate.
Rakzo
Goddammit, couldn't they just avoid using the ugly sticker for Runabout? He's already saturated with Decepticon symbols.

They look awesome! Can't wait!

I'm guessing its due to the fact that Adventures is suppose to be a mainline and not being treated as a second fiddle to Combiner Wars.

Glad i got him on pre-order
sad i didn't get override…

Indeed, TakaraTomy's line is an unfocused mess. Although they are definitely putting out higher grade figures thanks to much better paint and some new molds (Optimus). Still the line underwhelms. Frankly I hope whatever is next is way better than this, because this RiD 2 effort has been incredibly poor overall from both sides of the ocean.

They're selling the same crap we are (with marginally better paint) while dumping extra stuff in the line kinda like how Hasbro often did with the movie and universe 2.0 lines. A lot of this stuff should be in Takara's Legends line.
Rakzo
That's a nice idea! I'm doing the same now.

Seeing those pics I want that Override, repurposing him as a female of course. Now why is it that Takara is releasing a better RiD line and we get all this shelf warming crap. I'd take Lockdown, G1 Deco Drift, Override, & Greenjeeber any day.

but who's side is he on?!

What the frig is Runabout doing?

I'm loving how much attention these little dudes are getting! Glad I preordered them!
