Takara-Tomy have shared some details of a special prize campaign they will be running, starting February 1st. Known as the “Super Transformation! Three Great Robot Hero” campaign (our interpretation on Google’s built in translation), this is a special three-way promotion between Transformers , Tomika Rescue Hero Drive Head, and Bullet Train (Shinkansen) Transformation Robo Shinkanlion.
Going by the artwork, the Transformers representation on this project will be Transformers The Last Knight. The DVD will be available with any purchase of greater than 2,500 yen on Transformers, Drive Head, or Shinkanlion merchandise, while stocks last in participating stores. According to Dengeki Hobby, where some additional details are posted, collectors of all these lines will welcome the opportunity to add this to their collections.
For those unfamiliar with those other two lines, we are able to share some details.
Drive Head is the latest installment into the Tomika Rescue Hero series. The series is based around a rescue team, whose cars attach to larger rescue vehicles capable of transformation into robot modes. Additional support vehicles allow these rescue bots to adapt to different situations.
Shinkanlion is a series based around all varieties of bullet trains, and a heavy emphasis on combining. Early releases in the line used a unique form of “crash” combination, while newer releases have evolved the line with some more varied styles of combination.

So, can anybody capable of reading Japanese tell what exactly is on this DVD?

You just messed up this short & simple thread, do your research before posting something.

i watched the video on Youtube long before it's even posted here, the answer is NO, the video does not have to do with the two shows that we are talking here, it talks about shows that are ripping-off existing well known franchises such as Dragon Ball, Tomica Drive Head & Shinkalion ARE NOT KNOCK-OFF SHOWS a.k.a plagiarism works, both are original I.P.'s.

Did you watch the video? The question and the video are directly related. Please calm down.
The Mad Demobot
My mistake, I confused it for something else.

Not sure if trolling.

what knock-off shows!? the hell are you talking about!? also what does this video had something to do with it!? are you talking about Tomica Drive Head & Shinkalion!?
Alphard
Shinkanlion is really cute and fun so far…
I wouldn't mind Takara doing a TF series with that tone.
The Mad Demobot
Aren't these knock-off shows? I heard about these somewhere.
Oh and Pat Lee apparently worked on them.
WishfulThinking
Neat, if I had a way to watch it. I envision someone will eventually rip the content and post it on Youtube.
And I've been thinking about purchasing a few Shinkarion figures. I have two tubs full of Tomica Hypercity begging for super robot action.
