Takara Tomy Website has uploaded its Takara Transformers Legends Web Comic #45.
This episode is titled: “Targetmaster Chapter Prologue” and obviously introduces both Autobot and Decepticon Target Masters. While the comic has only got 4 pages, it features a lot of characters. Some fans could assume this is our first hint for new Autobot Targetmaster toys for the future, but we will have to wait and see for an official confirmation.
You can check the mirrored images (only in Japanese at the moment) after the jump and then sound off at the 2005 Boards!

Most Likely, Autobot Tragertmasters will be the new mold or Retool from several Titans Return.

Oh, hey, it\'s Shoashao! This outta be fun!

I really hope so. I heard Star Saber and Deathsaurus being announced and I'm really excited for Greatshot, Leozack, Jallguar, Road Caesar, Scorponok and the other five mentioned previously to get figures.
I need more cassettes for Blaster too so that would be good.

I think its most likely we will get them in the second half of potp, atleast 70% of them, takara might also do some.
Me, I'm hoping for another legends 2 pack thats Blue Rumble and Eject
Gallade
I hope the second half are Titan Returns figures. I need Repugnus, Grotusque, and the Autobot Targetmasters at TR figures or done in T30 style again. I seriously can't stress this enough.
I just want my Autobot Targetmaster homies already

John Warden's implied that more 1987 characters like the Horrorcons are coming sometime after POTP.
Gallade
So Slugslinger can have two Targetmasters but the Autobot Targetmasters can't have toys?

I was wondering where the ecchi was, then I saw the last panels lol

Kiss Players was always canon.
SgtLemon
Who to say the second half of POTP won't be the rest of the Targetmasters? Or am I forgetting that this line is only gonna be a year? (Or was that TLK?) I'm confused and grasping for straws.
TM2 Dinobot
Kiss Players crossover! Yes! Bring it back into canon! Makes me so happy.

Love it. Now if only we could have the Autobot Targetmasters (and not that awful Generations Scoop which should have been so much better than it was, I swear).
Also, we need more Kiss Players characters in the Legends manga. Nice surprise, anyway, even if it's only one here.
Yeah, I've mentioned before that I'd love a nice, hard-bound trade when the Legends manga is done, even if it's not translated (though to be fair, I can understand approximately half of it, whereas a lot of people can't read any of it, but I still would like a translation either way). Sakamoto's manga is some of the most fun, unapologetically cheesy and cutesy Transformers media out there and I love it so much. I want to buy all the Legends figures just for the manga… but I don't really want to actually own all the figures. So yeah, book please, TakaraTomy!

Unlikely or not, I'm hoping the other Autobot Targetmasters on the way. I mean, we got Godbomber, so perhaps Takara may not be averse to extending Titans Return/Legends to include more 'Master' characters.
Purple Heart
Most likely the same reason Shota wasn't either.

I love these! They're so fun, and enrich the lore of TF more than most Hasbro-released media *cough* LAST KNIGHT *cough* Machinima CW *cough*. I see these manga and they make me want to buy the toys!
It'd be really awesome if all of these comics were collected in a physical release at some point. (And then translated and released in the USA.) But for now, translation plz????
Also, how has this NOT been frontpaged???
NemiMonkey
Aaaaand now I really want some chibi bodies for the Titan Masters. That and I really wish I knew what the heck was going on.

Windblade's is Pinpointer, Crosshairs' Targetmaster

General Tekno
Whose is Windblade's again?
Thundershot
Which still leaves FRACAS!
I wonder if the lack of Fracas has anything to do with Artfire…

Hmm.. just like how Doublecross TM is supposed to be Blurr's..?
