Transformers RTS Deluxe Optimus Prime



 So it's time for a little treat, here's the first review I ever actually recorded for TAN... though it's the third I'm uploading... funny how things like this happen ANYWAY. The figure I'm reviewing today is the Deluxe Reveal the Shield Optimus Prime, which to my knowledge is an Homage figure to the G2 Optimus Prime. Personally this is by far my favorite design for Optimus Prime. The figure is actually really good overall but does have some... Articulation fidgets... funny how EVERYTHING I review's only bad flaw is with it's articulation. :) Enjoy.

SH MonstersArts Burning Godzilla
Release: November 2012
Retail Price: 7140 Yen






Tamashii Web Shop Exclusive: SH MonsterArts Godzilla Junior
Release: December
Retail Price: 3200 Yen



Lots of news and LOTS of Exclusives

So Bandai has been going on an announcing spree in the last few days... and sadly most of it is not good news. We have pretty much all the exclusives lined up from November into December, and they're all head deskingly annoying ones that we've all been hoping for... well except for one which only I'VE been waiting for.

So before I get into the exclusive list, lets go with the normal release list... starting off with my namesake, we have announced the Robot Damashii Sandrock Gundam from New Mobile Report Gundam Wing

It comes out in November and will retail for 3800 JPY

Next up on the list, we FINALLY get a Robot Damashii of the original Lancelot Knightmare frame from Code Geass. Before this the only way to get a normal Lancelot figure wise was the Inaction Offshoot, and some other figures line's I don't remember the names of. No info other than it's announcement has been released, so date and price are unknown. Though unlike the Albion Robot Damashii it'll be coming with properly designed activated and unactivated MVS's, and a Blaze Luminous Shield effect part.


Next on the list we have SIC Kiwami Tamashii Kamen Rider Decade *cringes*. It'll be releasing in Fall of 2012 and retailing for 1500 JPY




And last on the normal release line is S.H. Figuarts Kamen Rider Super-1, bout time we get more Showa Riders in the Figuarts line. It will be coming with all it's fist accessories, and will release in November for 3800 JPY.




So, starting with the exclusives, we have the Monster form of Basco and his companion Sally in S.H. Figuarts form, though Sally is a Zero. He will release December, and will go for 5250 JPY


Next on the list we have the S.H. Figuarts Space suit figure we see in Kamen Rider Fourze... I'm actually surprised we're getting a Show Prop as a figure but whatever. It once again is a December Figuart release and retails for 3360 JPY.



Next up is S.H. Figuarts Gosei Gree- I mean Deka Green. Yeah... Bandai is really getting frustratingly annoying with the Super Sentai figuarts... anyway he'll be releasing again in December for 3675 JPY.



Next up, once again from the S.H. Figuarts line we have the Genosider from Kamen Rider Ryuki. A certain someone hopes he'll be able to split apart, I doubt it. Anyway he'll be coming out in November for.... expensively cheap price of 10,500 JPY.



Next up we have 3 Figuarts, S.H. Figuart Leo Zodiarts from Kamen Rider Fourze, S.H. Figuarts Cell from Dragon Ball Z, and S.H. Figuarts AGP (Armored Girl Project) Cecilia Alcott from Infinite Stratos. All three are November Releases. Cecilia will cost 3150J JPY, Cell will cost 4725 JPY, and Leo Zodiarts will cost 3675 JPY.



Lastly we have S.H. Figuarts Cure Sunshine Super Silhouette and Super Robot Chogokin Black Might Gaine (tentative name till I can find the actual one... blame darkon) Both are December Exclusives. Black Might Gaine will cost 5040 JPY while Cure Sunshine Super Silhouette will cost 4410 JPY.

So appearancely Daiwa House (A pre-fab house building agency in japan) decided that the best people to have for home security is none other than Tokusatsu's Legendary 7 Riders as this funny little japanese commercial shows:
