Via Dr Wu Weibo account, we can share images of the color prototype of their DW-E14 Energy Dragon (SD Trypticon).

This is a very original take on the classic G1 Decepticon base in a 10-cm tall super deformed or “chibi” style which even includes a non-transformable Full-Tilt drone. Trypticon can transform into a cute dinosaur mode, city and battle station mode but Dr Wu surprises us with an extra 4th mode. He can transform into a small cube, an “Energy Cube”.

We still have no concrete information on price or release date, but stay tuned with TFW2005 for more updates. You can see all the mirrored images after the break and then let us know your impressions on the 2005 Boards!

Thanks to several 2005 Boards members we can share for you new in-hand images of the new Transformers Holiday Optimus Prime.

This figure is a special Christmas-themed Optimus Prime new mold which includes the Earthrise Optimus Prime trailer with matching Christmas colors. While the new deco is sure nice, we are sure you this new Optimus Prime mold will get your attention. A very original transformation and a solid and poseable robot mode, plus one of the best Optimus Prime head sculpts in recent toys. The potential for some great redecos is here.

Via PrimeVsPrime on Youtube, we have our first in-hand look at the new Transformers EarhSpark Deluxe Twitch.

EarthSpark Twitch is coming in Deluxe size class which is worked in a similar way of size and engineering as it was with the Cyberverse Deluxe toys. Twitch sure captures her CGI model from the show and featuring a wide range of articulation with a pretty solid and detailed dron mode. While she’s sure as expressive as her animation model, she’s not in scale with the rest of the other Deluxe figures. Twich is as tall as the previously seen EarthSpark Deluxe Megatron! There are some extra comparison shots with other figures too.

Check all the images after the jump, as well as PrimevsPrime review, and then let us know if your impressions on the 2005 Boards!
