Shockwave Lab on Weibo has uploaded images of their next project: SL-52 Upgrade Kit for Takara Legends LG-EX Dai Atlas.

The new LG-EX Dai Atlas figure is a very nice remold and repaint of the Titans Return Sky Shadow mold, but there was some concern about the hollow legs on Dai Atlas. Shockwave Lab comes to the rescue with two filler parts. These parts not only match the color of the toy, but they don’t interfere with the knee articulation. The extra parts can be attached to the sides of the vehicle mode as missile pods.

DNA Design has just shared, via their Facebook account, images of their next upgrade kit: DK-12 parts for Masterpiece Movie MPM-6 Ironhide.

Similar to their upgrade kit for Studio Serie Ironhide, this new kit brings us several extra guns and knives, but it also brings us extra parts that seem to improve the loose shoulders and car door after assembling as seen on this video.

There’s also a special first production exclusive gift offered with this kit. It’s Mojo, Sam’s small dog as seen in the live-action movies. The figurine includes a “pee effect” clear part to recreate that scene from the movie.

New 3P company Irontrans is coming into the market. Via their Weibo account, they have uploaded images of the gray prototype of their first project: Irontrans IR-V01 (Star Saber).

This a very interesting and original take on G1 Star Saber, the Autobot commander from the Japanese G1 cartoon Transformers Victory. The design brings us a highly stylized figure, still recognizable as Star Saber but very unique at the same time.

The robot mode is even taller than the official Masterpiece Star Saber (35 cm tall according to the Weibo post) and features a good range of poseability as seen in the pictures. We are sure the fully articulated hands will please Star Saber fans. This mold can also separate into the inner Saber robot who looks very poseable too.

This figure will come with several accessories like the Saber Blade, a laser rifle, and a pair of extra hands and a small sword for Saber. And to top it all, the small Brainmaster unit is also included.

While our optics are pleased with the robot mode, the jet mode of both Saber and Star Saber look quiet strange if we talk about proportions. Anyway, remember that this is an early prototype and many changes can be done in the future.

Shockwave Lab, via their Weibo account, has shared images of their new SL-51 Upgrade Kit for Siege Voyager Soundwave.

After several LED upgrade sets, Shockwave Lab is bringing us a regular extra parts upgrade. This kit will work as filler for the forearms and, more importantly, these parts will also let Soundwave to recreate a Boombox alt mode. It’s a very simple solution but works really well. The extra parts allow the shoulders to slide to the back of the toy, giving you the space to place the legs to the sides and have a Boombox alt mode for display.

We still have no information on release date or price, but this kit should be out anytime soon. Click on the bar to see the mirrored images and the join to the discussion on the 2005 Boards!

Via Toyworld Weibo Account we can share some great images of their upcoming Toyworld TW-F09 Freedom Leader Prototype.

Toyworld is bringing a great rendition of Optimus Prime as seen in the Bumblebee movie, and we are sure this prototype will please your optics. The mold looks highly detailed as if he was taken from the movie. The figure seems quite tall in robot mode next to 3A DLX Bumblebee action figure and Studio Series Voyager Bumblebee Movie Optimus Prime. The alt mode looks pretty solid and really big compared to the Studio Series Stinger as seen in the shared images. You may place your bets on the right scale of this project. There’s still no concrete information on price or release date yet.

Click on the bar to see all the images, but keep in mind that this is an early prototype and several changes could be made in the final product. Then, chime in your impressions on the 2005 Boards.
