Courtesy of Dengeki Hobby Web we have new stock images of Takara Tomy Earthrise releases for May 2020: Trip-Up & Daddy-O, Wheeljack and Ironworks.

The figures show no discernible differences compared to their Hasbro counterparts, but they use different code numbers for each one.

  • ER EX-03 Micromasters Trip-Up & Daddy-O – Takara Tomy Mall Exclusive – 1500 Yen ($13.78)
  • ER-03 Wheeljack – 2800 Yen ($25.72)
  • ER-04 Ironworks – 2800 Yen ($25.72)

It’s good to notice that the new Micromasters will be sold as Takara Tomy Mall exclusives like Battle Master ER EX-01 Soundbarrier and ER EX-02 Grapple.  We also have a very nice gallery for Ironworks showing his parts, weapons, modes and all the combination and playability potential with other bases, Micromasters and Battle Masters. To top it all, we have a pic with Wheeljack using Ironworks parts as an armor via Autobase Aichi.

Courtesy of Loopaza Mega Store we have our usual doses of Figure King Magazine Scans. Issue #262 features some new images of War For Cybertron: Earthrise, Studio Series, Cyberverse, G-Shock Master Nemesis Prime & Raiden Project

This month we have only 4 pages of Transformers content:

  • War For Cybertron Earthrise Line Up – A nice group shot of the upcoming Earthrise figures for the Japanese market for 2020: Optimus Prime, Hoist,  Cliffjumper, Ironworks, Wheeljack, Soundbarrier, and Bombshock & Decepticon Growl (Military Patrol). There are some extra stock images of Grapple, Hoist and Optimus Prime. Onece again, Optimus Prime features gray hands and yellow eyes, different from what we have seen in the last in-hand images of the toy we have reported.
  • Transformers Cyberverse – More Spark Armor toys are hitting Japanese shelves with Turbo change (1-step) Hot Rod, Sky Byte and Jazz.
  • Transformers Studio Series Wave 10 – Scheduled for January 2020 (remember that Takara Tomy use differente numbers compared to the US releases): SS-40 Camaro Bumblebee, SS-41 Chromia, Arcee, Elita-1, SS-42 Soundwave and Laserbeak and SS-43 Constructicon Mixmaster.
  • Transformers x G-Shock Master Nemesis Optimus Prime – Some promotional images of this amazing collaboration between Casio and Takara.
  • Transformers Kentei Exclusive Commemorative Optimus Prime Figure – A reminder that all participants in the Transformers Proficiency test will receive an Exclusive Optimus Prime figure. This toy is a slight redeco of the Energon Igniters Speed Series Optimus Prime toy.
  • Transformers Raiden Project – Another reminder of the upcoming exhibition: “A Railway Story In The Sky” which involves the cooperation of JR 7 companies, Tokyo Metro, Tokyo Metropolitan Bureau of Transportation and other companies showing off all the rich railroad Japanese story over the years. Takara Tomy will announce a new project involving the Japanese G1 combiner Raiden at the exhibition. Not much information added.

We can share a new gallery of in-hand images of the highly expected War For Cybertron: Earthrise Leader Class Optimus Prime for your viewing pleasure.

We have some extra shots of this figure in both modes, proving to be a fine piece of engineering full of G1 spirit. Fans have had a little concern about Optimus’ hands and eyes color. Our first look a the prototype seen at New York Comic Con and some stock images showed that the toy had yellow eyes and gray hands. Later, our first in-hand images of the toy showed blue eyes and blue hands. This new set of in-hand images also show blue for eyes and hands, so it seems highly probable that this is the final deco that will hit retail next year.

We also have comparison shots next to MP-10 Optimus Prime, Siege Leader Class Galaxy Upgrade Optimus Prime, Siege Deluxe Mirage and Ironhide, Studio Series SS-38 Voyager Bumblebe movie Optimus Prime and Studio Series Leader Class SS-40 Jetwing Optimus Prime. A very nice rendition of the iconic Autobot Leader in a pretty good size, with a good range of posability and a fun transformation sequence.

Via In Demand Toys we can share new Packaging and Stock Images of the highly expected Earthrise Leader Class Optimus Prime.

The new images reveal that this G1-inspired Optimus Prime mold comes in a very wide windowed box. The figures is packed in robot mode with his trailer in combat deck configuration (vertical) on the back. A huge box indeed. The extra stock images still show the figure with yellow eyes and gray hands, different from the blue eyes and hands of our first in-hand images.
