Earlier this week, Transformers Masterforce was released on DVD from Shout Factory in the US. Now, we have news that the final installment of the Japanese trilogy, Transformers Victory, is confirmed to have a release date of August 28th of this year.
TVshowsonDVD confirms this news and there is a link on their website to preorder from
Amazon.com.
With its glorious return to the classic TRANSFORMERS, VICTORY - the third and final installment of the Japanese-exclusive series - introduces four new factions to the TRANSFORMERS universe. Each group comes equipped with its own unique power and the ability to combine to form much larger, more powerful Transformers, immediately making each and every battle even more epic! Now, for the first time in North America, you can enjoy 37 action-packed episodes of VICTORY on DVD in its original Japanese language with brand-new English subtitles!
On August 28th, Shout! Factory and Hasbro bring you the final individual set out of the previously-available "Complete Japanese Transformers Collection" package. The 4-DVD release of Transformers: Victory - The Japanese Collection, priced at $29.93 SRP, will be available at participating retailers with 870 minutes of animated action. Presented in full screen video, the audio is in the original Japanese language but English subtitles are included as well. There's also a bonus Art Gallery on board.

Botcon 2012 has come and gone. While we may be seperated from our friends and fellow fans whom we share the excellent hobby of collecting Transformers with, we do have one thing to help keep the memories fresh. Botcon 2012 Exclusive toys! Several 2005 Board members have taken the time to review this years offerings from Fun Publications. We have both pictorial review or video review flavors! Still on the fence about getting some of the figures? This is a great place to start.

Take this next bit of news with a huge grain of salt for the time being. According to 2005 Board member Catz, Hasbro has sent out solicitations that include some recently cancelled Transformers Prime and Transformers Dark of the Moon figures. As of now, these may only be appearing in Asia. Included in the solicitations are the following:
TRA PRIME DELUXE AST (to be released May 28th)
2x Arcee
3x Cliffjumper
3x Vehicon
TRA MOVIE ALL STAR DELUXE ASST (to be released May 21st)
8x Autobot Que
Again, until we see preorders for these items, take this as a grain of salt. Catz is very reliable with his news, so hopefully those who missed out on any of these figures can finally get their hands on them through online retailers. We will find out in the coming weeks and keep you updated here on TFW.
