Back in April Takara Tomy revealed Masterpiece Reboost and Skids, two figures based on the "Honda City Turbo" vehicle form originally seen in G1 and the Diaclone toy line that preceded it. Now Takara Tomy Mall has posted a listing for a third variation of the sculpt also based on a Diaclone variant: DiaBurnout! This variant features a new head sculpt and a striking black deco.

Sometimes Transformers news seems to come out of left field, and today's news from Takara Tomy is one of those instances. Takara Tomy Mall has announced that in 2023 it will release two crossover Transformers figures with the Canon camera brand. The characters represented will be Optimus Prime and (naturally) Reflector.

After some initial releases here and there in Asia, US-based retailer and BWTF sponsor BigBadToyStore has now put up pre-orders for Studio Series 86 Ratchet and Wheelie!  Along with the preorders they have also posted official images.  You can order Ratchet here and Wheelie here or order them as a set

Daim Choc is on a roll this morning with (what appear to be) more Takara Tomy promotional pics of Legacy Blanker and Dead End!  Blanker is the Japanese name for the Autobot Targetmaster, Pointblank.  He is partnered with the Targetmaster, Peacemaker.  Dead End adds another Stunticon to the set that will form Menasor with the recently released Motormaster.  Check out the pics in the gallery below!

Thanks to Daim Choc Reports we have our first look at Movie Masterpiece Starscream from Revenge of the Fallen.  These pics appear to be Takara Tomy promotional pics so it is likely that they will post an official listing soon.  The figure is a redeco of the previous Movie Masterpiece Starscream featuring a very different pattern than the previous release based on his appearance in the second live action Transformers film.  Until we get official info, check out the images in the gallery below!
