They only have the fracture microshooter up for now. Do we know what else is coming out in august?

He sold out in like nanoseconds the moment he was solicited. managed to score Override..sold out already. Fracture is still available..though I kinda no likey him/it.

Nice going, Ami Ami. You once again confuse your customers by listing yet another product by the wrong name.

He doesnt even appear when you search TAV, which is what I usually do to see the latest offerings http://slist.amiami.com/top/search/list?s_keywords=tav&pagemax=40&getcnt=0&pagecnt=1

Regardless, enough customers found him no problem it seems.

Weird thing is, it didn't show up in the Pre-orders until it was too late. Good thing I got the "Over-dude" when a stray "available" slot appeared.

You know what guys, I think Amiami is going to the old practice of using two online order pages. Years back, they had a Japan and International page. There were some goods offered at bottom floor prices sale in the former and none in the latter. I thought it was removed already but it seems, they're back to the old practice as Runabout simply evaporated.

Ah, that runabout. Love that little guy. If only IDW still had him alive.

And that Optimus yo. Stilts anyone?

Anyone want a in-hand gallery of the big TAV-21 Optimus Prime?

I can post a few pictures tonight if you guys want them.

I wouldn't mind getting a closer look at him. If you don't mind. Maybe a comparison with a warrior class or something whose size we are all familiar with.

Thanx K.

I do have Warrior Optimus. It will be a nice comparison between the two.

True that. I'll do him too.
Hey, keep your mind out of the gutter!

You will get a news credit the minute those are posted

Getting to work!

And done! Here's the pictures I took of TAV-21 Optimus Prime and TAV-23 Jazz.

Despite his finnicky transformation, Optimus is well worth owning and the infamous leg gap don't bother me at all. Also, Takara Jazz is a sight to behold!

So, enjoy!

Seibertron, my photos might make my Photobucket bandwith go "boom". So please save them and re-upload them with your own image hosting site or something.



























































And there you go, folks.

Seibertron's very own Kanrabat was kind to snap a bunch of photos providing a more in depth look at Takara's TAV 21 Optimus Prime (get it? because the trailer has depth this time, I am here all week!), which is an exclusive Takara mold. He was released the same time as TAV 23 Jazz, of which Kanrabat also took some picutres.

Nice pics, Kanrabat. I'm still waiting for my stack from TFSource to ship. I should be getting TAV-21 Optimus, TAV Sideswipe and Jazz, and MP Bumblebee by the end of the week. I can hardly wait, and your in-hand pictures aren't making it any easier, lol!

By the way, I find it amazing how I could barely notice his hallow legs in your pics. From front, side and back it is done so that you cant tell. What are his sounds and lights like? Does he speak Japanese?

What did you use? FedEx or EMS? That was sure fast! Mine is still in the pipeline

First, yay me!

I used EMS. It was a whopping 4000y of shipping, but the other option was SAL at 3850y. So, EMS it was. And MAN, that was almost Star-Trek Beam-Me-Up fast!

It need 2 AAA batteries that I don't have at the moment. I will tell you guys tomorrow once I buy some.

Woah... Kinda overkill...

Oh! So thats a yes, very Japanese.

hasbro needs to get on the ball and release this in america this is by far the best optimus prime toy from that show so far
