BotCon package pickup has started tonight as early arriving attendees get the first looks at the 2016 box set and the accompanying comic book. As with year’s past, we’ve been able to get a sneak peak of souvenir figures during this time. Thanks to the BotCon twitter feed and artist
Sara Pitre-Durocher, we’ve received word that the souvenir figures look to be: Airazor from Takara’s Slipstream, TransMetals 3 Megatron from RID Galvatron, Tigatron from Botcon’s Ravage mold, and Unit-3 from Combiner Wars Streetwise (which looks to be an “Under 3” homage to the McDonald’s Happy Meal toy). We’re also seeing some TFW2005 members confirm

When the
announcement came for the roll out of Machinima‘s Transformers: Combiner Wars, one the first questions asked by the fans was whether it will be available internationally. It’s a fair question since the announcement stated that go90 is the platform of choice for the series. go90 is a United States only streaming service available on both Android and iOS. If an international user got the chance to access the app, he or she will be greeted with the message “Sorry! Go90 is only available in the US right now. So sadz, we know” (Seriously, not kidding. That’s the message.

Hot off the release of MP-29 Laserwave,
TakaraTomy has announced the next entry of their Masterpiece toy line, MP-14+ Alert Anime Color Edition. As its name suggest, this version of Masterpiece Red Alert will be paint in a color scheme much closer to the character’s on screen appearance. The most telling difference between the two versions is the off-white paint replacing the pure white seen on the original release. The silver on the rims, weapon and robot mode feet will also be replaced by that off-white color. Lastly, the accessory part used for emulating “Circuit Trouble” will be molded

We’ve reported on the fact that a Combiner Wars Deluxe class Groove has been released in Taiwan as a Toys R Us exclusive – and off the back of that, auctions and other listings have been popping up all over the show. One particularly notable one is

Few hours ago
we posted a news regarding a new cross promotion campaign by Hasbro and Xiaomi in China. The campaign features a $20 transforming Xiaomi Mi Pad 2 which transforms to Decepticon Soundwave. Weibo user Starscream and AC Toys user Toys2016 is giving us our first In-Hand Images and a Pictorial Review of the toy. Xiomi Soundwave even comes with a transforming minion and a transforming weapon and a shield which certainly adds a good value for the price tag. Thanks to a comparison pic, the new toy is measured about shoulder height of MP Soundwave. We’ve mirrored some of

masterforceuk.blogspot has uploaded a great set of photos showing Masterpiece Ratchet in its prototype form. This set of images is interesting because it shows what parts were retooled on Ratchet from the Ironhide version indicated by the blue portions of the toy. Seeing images like these provide a great look at the various design stages not often seen by fans and collectors. Also pictured here is what looks like a Masterpiece Tracks prototype.
Earlier in February, we covered a prototype story featuring Tracks as well, so maybe we’ll be seeing more Masterpiece prototypes in the future. Feel free to discuss
