Paramount Japan have uploaded a pretty fun video with a new collaboration between Pui Pui Molcar and Transformers: Rise Of The Beasts in Japan.

Pui Pui Molcar is a popular stop-motion animation show for kids featuring cute wool guinea pigs as cars. According to an article in Mantan Web the idea started with a Bumblebee movie poster which was seen all around the show and due to the fact that the series director, Tomoki Misato, is a Transformers fan.

The video is a mix of the Transformers: Rise Of The Beasts trailer with new animation sequences featuring Pui Pui Molcar character “Potato” who transforms into a robot as he listens to Optimus Prime command. The official Pui Pui Molcar Twitter also shared an official “Molformers” poster for this collaboration.

Watch the video after the break as well as a short clip of Potato’s transformation. Let us know your impressions on the 2005 Boards!

Hasbro Transformers Team Ben “BMac” MacCrae has updated his Instagram account with some interesting comments about the newTransformers Collaborative: G.I Joe Mash Up Soundwave Thunder Machine.

Read on for details!

• Zartan and Zarana are ALL NEW o-ring figures. They were created based on the originals but we’re updated as needed. Both will come on their own blister card in-pack.
• Ravage is the MP Ravage mold. Yes he converts. Yes he’s blue on purpose. Fun little side note he was supposed to be blue in G1.
• Soundwave has a functioning cassette door and Ravage will fit inside of him. The rocket on the back of the Thunder Machine is also doubling as Soundwave’s Sonic Cannon. He is also roughly 10 inches tall so Commander-esque in size, but these don’t play into a perfect Transformers scale. They are 1:1 in size of the original ARAH toys.
• I pushed REAL hard for the chain accessory so anyone who bought last years HISS Tank and Baroness could recreate the iconic comic cover with these figures. It HAD to happen.

Bmac also tells us that Soundwave may be on display the upcoming San Diego Comic-Con 2023. Let us know your impressions about this new crossover figure on the 2005 Boards!

Earlier today during the Yo Joe June Hasbro stream the next Transformers x G.I. Joe Collaborative figure was officially revealed – Thundermachine Soundwave.  The set will come with two O-Ring G.I. Joe figures – Zartan and Zarana, plus what looks to be Masterpiece Ravage in a blue/red deco, and a chain to take him for walks, which seems to be a reuse from the SDCC 2013 Jetfire/Vamp set.

Via Gizmodo, a new Transformers x Jurassic Park Collaborative set has just been revealed – Decepticon Dilophocon vs Autobot JP12!

“They’re going to be making sequels to Jurassic Park until the end of time, and hopefully one of them takes inspiration from the recent Hasbro Transformers x Jurassic Park mashups, which now include a Dilophosaurus and a Jeep Wrangler that transform into robots—finally giving visitors a fighting chance when the park’s residents inevitably escape and hunt for a meal.

Hasbro has been doing these Transformers collaborations for a few years now, with memorable releases including bots inspired by Ghostbusters, Back to the Future, and even the animated X-Men series. For Jurassic Park fans, a collaboration back in 2021 stands out as one of the highlights, recreating the film’s iconic T. rex tour vehicle attack scene, but with a Cybertronian twist. The T. rex transformed into the formidable Decepticon Tyrannocon Rex, while the Ford Explorer tour vehicle transformed into Autobot JP93 wearing a recreation of Alan Grant’s hat, and wielding game warden Robert Muldoon’s SPAS-12 shotgun.

For the 40th anniversary of Jurassic Park, we’re getting another dino vs. vehicle Transformers mashup, but this time based on the scene where Dennis Nedry has an unfortunate run-in with a Dilophosaurus who has no interest in playing fetch. The two-pack includes the new Decepticon Dilophocon who transforms from Dilophosaurus to robot in 20 steps and includes a “venom blast effect” accessory, and the Autobot JP12, based on the Jeep Wrangler Sahara staff vehicle, that converts to its robot mode in 23 steps.

JP12 appears to be loosely based on Nedry, with a rain hat, glasses, and a can of Barbasol shaving cream that’s presumably filled with stolen dinosaur embryos—which is kind of confusing given JP12 identifies as an Autobot. Maybe the Autobots are looking to rewrite the Dinobots’ origin story? We can’t say for sure.

The Transformers Collaborative Jurassic Park x Transformers Dilophocon and Autobot JP12 set is available starting today and is priced a little cheaper than 2021’s Jurassic Park mashup, at $75. Starting at 1:00 pm EST, you can order it through the Hasbro Pulse online store, or through Amazon.”
