News in from Tokyo Toy Show 2013 - it would seem that Japanese studio Art Storm / Fewture, who have previously made the ES and EM Gokin versions of the Mugen Calibur from Japanese Anime series Dorvack have acquired a Transformers license from Takara-Tomy - which means officially licensed Roadbuster versions of both these Mugen Caliburs!

To take a quick step back and explain, ES Gokin is a small, transformable, super-deformed (large head in proportion to body) figure, while the EM Gokin version is a normal proportioned release, but does not transform. Regrettably the version that would have the biggest appeal - that is, a full transformable one with normal proportions - was not made by Art Storm but CM's Corporation.

Regardless, these are both very cool pieces, and doubtless the EM Gokin Roadbuster will look good in a collection display regardless of its lack of an alternate mode - this fan would imagine it would look rather cool next to the Mech Ideas Apex and Geminus figures.

This news comes to you via the Cybergundam blog.
