Via Bilibili user 善解人意变速箱 we have a nice set of in-hand images of a color test shot of the Transformers Masterpiece Cliffjumper.

We had previously seen several images of the prototype of this rumored Masterpiece Cliffjumper toy which seems to be a retool of the Masterpiece MP-45 Bumblebee 2.0. Keep in mind that we still haven’t heard of any official announcement or teaser about this figure. Now we have a clear look at the alt mode from several angles which captures the G1 cartoon design of Cliffjumper’s alt mode including his rear cannon. Robot mode shows what you may like or not about the MP-45 Bumblebee mold plus the respective new parts for a cartoon-accurate Cliffjumper.

Via PrimeVsPrime, we now have our first in-hand images at the new Transformers Masterpiece MP-54 Reboost

This figure is redeco and retool of Masterpiece Skids, inspired by the pre-Transformers red Diaclone Honda Civic Turbo variant, and now presented as a new character named Reboost. We have a look all the accessories included like guns, the holographic driver, and a mini Motocompo. The figure shows off several Honda logos and details with an intuitive transformation. As usual, we have several comparison shots next to other Masterpiece figures.

You can check out a gallery of images and also the video review after the break. Let us know what you think of Reboost on the 2005 Boards!

Takara Tomy Transformers Twitter have uploaded some additional official in-hand images of the new Transformers MPG-01 Trainbot Shouki now showing off his train alt mode.

Masterpiece MPG-01 Shouki is the first entry in Takara Tomy’s Trainbots combiner Raiden which was seen in the G1 Japan The Headmasters cartoon. This figure should be part of the recently revealed Transformers MPG Collection. Now we have a look at the realistic and detailed Shinkansen Type 0 alt mode from different angles. We can see all the effort taken in recreating every detail of this bullet train, even at the bottom of the train. Robots parts are very well integrated and you may not think it’s a transformable robot.

If you are interested in adding Shouki for your collection, you can find pre-orders via our sponsors links below. See the mirrored images attached to this news post and then join to the ongoing discussion on the 2005 Boards!

A new image of a possible Masterpiece Cliffjumper prototype is surfacing over the internet. This time we have a look at a color test shot of the robot mode of this rumored new Masterpiece figure.

We had previously seen some images of the prototype of this rumored Masterpiece Cliffjumper toy which seems to be a retool of the Masterpiece MP-45 Bumblebee 2.0. We have now a look at a possible colored sample in robot mode. We can spot a new face compared to the one we had seen before and big Autobot insignia on his chest, but we also notice the figure is a bit mistransformed.

Update: More images showing a more correct transformation and more angles of the figure via Baidu user 和蔼可亲

Keep in mind that we haven’t heard any official information about this mold, so stay tuned with TFW2005 for more updates. Now click on the bar to see the new image attached on this news post and then join to the ongoing discussion on the 2005 Boards!

The latest issue of Figure King Magazine has included an Interview with MPG-01 Raiden Development Team and thanks to 2005 Board member Xaxis we have an English translation to share with all of you.

This 2-page interview collects the impressions and comments of Takara Tomy x Tomytec Shouki Developer team which consists of: Kojin Ono (Takara Tomy / Transformers Team), Dai Ono (Tomytec / Development) and Hideki Shimanuki (Tomytec / Marketing). Since Shouki is a realistic train, the Transformers staff teamed with Takara Tomy’s train brand: Tomytec.

We have some interesting details about how the train mode was worked and the decisions made to create a realistic Shinkansen mode while make it still transformable.

Not much left to say, so read the interview after the break and then sound off on the 2005 Boards!
