A new gallery has been posted at Actoys.net, showing the Transformers Encore 10 Minibots in and out of their packaging. The photos show the front and rear of the packaging, as well as each bot transformed and both sides of the profile cards.
The set was originally numbered 9 but was swapped with Omega Supreme. The six figures in the set are Bumblebee, Swerve, Tailgate, Outback and Pipes, and can be picked up now from TakaraTomy.
jewelz_green of Actoys.net has posted a high resolution gallery of one of TakaraTomy’s latest Binaltech figures, BT-19 Bluestreak. The gallery shows both the robot and the Subaru Impreza WRX Sedan modes of the repainted figure, which was released earlier this month in Japan.
Fan2Fan have updated their site preorder page with some new images of the next Masterpiece figure MP-07 Thundercracker. The face has been changed to give a different facial expression to Starscream.
MP-07 Thundercracker is due for release in November 08 from TakaraTomy and will cost the same as MP-03 Starscream.
TFW2005.com member Robotchan has helped out the fandom by translating the story for TakaraTomy’s latest two Binaltech figures, BT-19 Bluestreak and BT-20 Meister. The story is titled “Unfinished Business Parts 1 and 2”.
The Binaltech story is set between Generation One Season 2 and Transformers The Movie in Takara’s Transformers universe.
Hopefully the story will continue in BT-21 Arcee and BT-22 Convoy.

A member of ACToys.net has posted a gallery of one of TakaraTomy’s upcoming Henkei releases, Ramjet. As you can see from the pictures, the figure will have chrome tailfins, thrusters and the cockpit interior, as well as a different paint scheme on the wings and slightly altered details elsewhere. Both modes are shown.
