Japanese publisher Village books has shared, via their Twitter account, the amazing covers of the IDW More Than Meets The Eye & Robots In Disguise Japanese Editions.
The regular covers of both IDW Transformers series are drawn by artist Kazumasa Yasukuni who has also drawn a cover for the Japanese release of the G1 Marvel comics. The 2 covers together form a fantastic illustration with characters from both sagas.
More Than Meets the Eyes limited cover comes courtesy of artist Takahiro Yamada who has provided art and designs for Beast Wars II, Beast Wars Neo, Car Robots, and Micron Densetsu. It’s a very original art featuring Optimus Prime with Rodimus’ crew reflected on his chest windows. All in a dynamic manga style!
Finally, Robots In Disguise limited cover is drawn by artist DAI-XT who has worked in the Legends manga. His art features Bumblebee in the center holding half of the Matrix and surrounded by Prowl, Ironhide, Blurr and Arcee.

Wow, what a work of art. Literally.

I heartily disagree there, MTMTE Vol 1 is illustrated by Nick Roche, Alex Milne and coloured by Josh Burcham, I don't think its an exaggeration to say its some of the best art in Transformers history.

I'm not sure about the wider Japanese Transformers fanbase, but from what I saw online during their original runs the comics seemed to have a pretty solid following over there even untranslated, so these translated editions will hopefully open them up for a wider audience.

Covers are great but some of those artists drawing the comics are meh at best
samisham
can i have the first one as a poster, please? I\'m also very curious about what the Japanese fanbase will think of this stuff.
