New images have been released of the upcoming Japanese versions of the Transformers Prime mainline toys, including the (for now) Japan only Skywarp. A recolored version of the First Edition Starscream, Skywarp also appears to come with new accessories.
Also shown in the new images are Japan's gimmick for the new line - unlike the US series emphasis on MechTech on the bigger toys and standard accessories on the Deluxes, Japan's releases all feature Arms Microns, small partner figures that transform into the weapons of the main characters - so Ratchet has a laser scalpel Arms Micron, Bumblebee and Cliffjumper have partners that becomes their arm cannons, etc.
This is a real departure - it is the first time a Japanese mainline has featured this extent of different toolings for many years.

Zap2it has updated with the title and description of the 28th episode of Transformers Prime. The title is no surprise considering the title of the season premiere, and the description - which I think most people following the show saw coming a mile away - does spoil a certain plot development, so read at your own risk.
Transformers Prime Episode 28 / Season 2 Episode 2
Orion Pax, Part 2
Jack learns how to restore Optimus' memory.

Great news, Transformers Kabaya kit fans! We've got a double reveal to share with you now. Revealed today on Rakutan stores,
Snakas' blog and the
Cybergundam blog amongst many others are two new series of Transformers Kabaya kits. First of all, there is a fifth wave of the revived Kabaya Transformers, and second, a new Kabaya combiner set.
Starting with
Wave 5, there are three great new additions in the form of Deathsaurus from Transformers Victory, War for Cybertron Optimus Prime and a Classics style reimaginging of Protectobot Hot Spot. Some pretty cool choices - and another Transformers Victory character given some love as a Kabaya! Each kit in the set also comes with extra parts to form "full armour" Deathsaurus - I'm guessing that means he'll have both breastmasters?

Transformers Galaxy have posted some new images to their Facebook gallery showing some future assortments of the Bot Shots toys. These leaked images show off future additions to the line, confirming it's a full cross-continuity series with Generation 1, War for Cybertron (in the form of Megatron) and Movie series all represented.
On the images, one shows Wave 2, which introduces new characters Mirage, Ratchet (both Generation 1, though Ratchet's vehicle mode is his Movie Humvee mode). They are joined by Decepticon Brawl from the movie series, and that clear yellow one we mentioned the other day? First Bumblebee redeco of the line.
A future wave (unnumbered in the leaked image) adds Thundercracker (Generation 1, Starscream redeco) and Jetfire (based on Classics). Also new to that wave are Lockdown (Movie series) and Topspin from Dark of the Moon.
