Thanks to Twitter user @hayatoron we have images of the new Mochibots Transformers Plush Wave 2 Megatron & Seekers for our viewing pleasure.

We have previously seen Wave 1 of these cute chibi-style plush characters some weeks ago. Now, during the Transformers Beast Wars & Beast Wars II special screening in Japan, there were some products on exhibit at the venue and we have our first look at Mochibots Transformers Wave 2 Megatron, Shattered Glass Megatron, Starscream, Skywarp and Thundercracker.

We still have no concrete information about release date, but they should be AmiAmi Asia exclusives (for China and Japan markets) as it was with wave 1.

These are pre-painted model kits which are about 8 to 12 cm tall, and pretty well articulated for their size. We have the following Bumblebee movie characters were on display: Optimus Prime (new reveal), Acid Storm, Skywarp (?), Dropkick, and Wheeljack.

We also have our first look at the gray prototypes of Rise Of The Beasts Optimus Prime and Bumblebee. We still have no concrete information about scale.

Via Baidu users 我可能当不了奥特曼啦, p188, TF News and TMReviews on Facebook, Weibo user 漫港湾 and the official Yolopark Weibo account, we can share for you images from the Shangai Wonder Festival 2023 Yolopark booth with our first look at their new AMK Pro Series G1 Starscream and The Last Knight Optimus Prime. 

The AMK Pro series are easy-to-build model kits with die-cast pieces. All parts come pre-assembled and pre-painted, so you just have to attach legs, arms and some extra pieces to the main body. AMK Pro Series The Last Knight Optimus Prime stands 20 cm tall and comes with his sword and shield. It’s the first entry in the Movieverse designs. We also have our fist look at AMK Pro Series G1 Starscream with 20 cm tall. With a very cartoon-design, he’s the third entry of G1 characters following Megatron and Optimus Prime (on exhibit too).

We also have a closer look a the color prototypes of AMK Series (no die-cast parts) Rise Of The Beasts Cheetor, Scourge and our first look at the Rhinox color prototype.

We also have a closer look at the recently revealed AMK Pro Series Bumblebee Movie Soundwave and ROTB Mirage, AMK Series Mini G1 figures and the big IES ROTB Optimus Primal.

The official Takara Tomy Habby Channel YouTube account have just uploaded the first episode of the Japanese dub of Transformers EarthSpark.

We can now listen to the TV version of the opening “TRANSFORMERS-Earthspark” by Japanese band Psychic Lover. The band had previously wrote and performed songs for the Legends of the Microns (Armada) cartoon. We can also appreciate all the new Japanese voices of the characters, more remarkable the return of Tesho Genda, the original G1 Convoy/Optimus Prime Japanese voice.
