The official Takara Tomy Hobby Channel YouTube account have just treated us with two new promotional videos of Transformers Masterpiece MPG-02 Getsuei.

First we have a very detailed step-by-step transformation video. From his realistic  EF65-1000 Electric Locomotive alt mode to robot mode and combiner leg mode. We can see this is a very clever and original transformation sequence. We also have a look at the way you can use the extra railway pieces and flying stand.

Then we have a very nice promotional CGI animated video showing off Getsuei coming down from the skies at night under a full moon, then transform into robot mode to finish in an anime-style pose with the moon as background.

Not much left to say, so watch the videos after the jump and then sound off on the 2005 Boards!
