When the evil organization known as M.E.C.H. wanted to create a Transformer of their own, they picked the form that would deliver the highest psychological impact: that of Autobot leader Optimus Prime! Armed with his Micron partner Giza, Nemesis Prime is a type of evil the Autobots have never faced before. Check out my review of this newest iteration of an "evil Optimus Prime"! (1 comment)

Frenzy is one of the most loyal Decepticons out there but that doesn't mean he isn't prone to rages whenever someone questions his strength or bravery. He'll use his sonic powers or Dago as his weaponry and take down any Autobot who dares to challenge him! Today's second "Arms Micron" review is for Frenzy with Dago. (0 comments)

Rumble may not be the biggest or most powerful Decepticon around, but what he lacks in size and strength he more than makes up for with his ill temper and attitude. He backs this up with Dago who transforms into a blaster and a piledriver! Today's review takes a look at the Japanese exclusive Arms Micron Rumble with Dago. (0 comments)

Thanks to BWTF sponsor Image Anime I have new images from the "Beast Hunters" follow up in Japan known as "Transformers Go!".

The first image features the animated appearance of the six Autobots who will be hunting Predacons in the anime as well as photos of their combined forms.

The second image features toy images, including some redecos of upcoming Predacons! This might mean we'll get to see certain sculpts used in animation even if they don't appear in the "Beast Hunters" series.
