The Hero-X.net Twitter account has shared some new images of the upcoming Million Hero exclusive GoShooter. GoShooter is the mail-in exclusive for the Generations 2014 Volume 2 book. He's a redeco of Generations Nightbeat, and looks extremely close to the original design of the character from 1988. Much like several of the other exclusive versions of characters who were -masters back in the original line, GoShooter features a redeco of one of the Generations Legends Targetmaster partners to represent GoShooter's Headmaster partner, Shuta.

Check out the new images attached to this post.

These "Gacha Kreons" make 12 different Kreons available - some of whom have not been made available previously. The full lineup includes Optimus Prime, Bumblebee, Jazz, Ratchet, Red Alert, Mirage, Megatron, Starscream, Shockwave, Skywarp, Thundercracker, and Soundwave. Notably, the Bumblebee, Optimus Prime, Megatron and Starscream all seem to be based on their custom Kreon releases.

DeNA has made some changes to the TvT Event (Team Event) and Daily Log-In Rewards.

For the month of November two character cards (and their respective weapons) can be unlocked by log-in into the game daily. Scourge [5] R5 and Red Wing [2] R6 are available as the rewards. Monthly Energon Chains have been reduced to just 1 instead of the usual 4. Complete breakdown of the Daily Log-In Rewards and images can be found after the jump.

Concept artist Xylac Industries have shared some interesting pieces of concept artwork of the Dinobots, which they were commissioned to produce by Hasbro three years ago. It's mentioned that these artworks were not produced specifically for Transformers Age of Extinction but as a part of a wider study of a different aesthetic style for the Transformers live action movie universe. It's mentioned that the new aesthetics included "layering to see the inner mechanic structure under a transparent layer, organic shape to the Mechanic - Musculature, new silhouette, new panel segmentation styles, Organic forms and Muscle system."

Once again these are not specific Age of Extinction concept arts but ones produced to explore a new artistic direction. You might also find it interesting to know that all of these arts were produced in a tight two-week timeframe. Check them out!

Hisashi Yuki is teasing fans once again via his Twitter account, this time showing off the cool Japanese version of Generations Tankor. This version of Tankor is coming in the Transformers Legends line later this month in Japan, sporting more silver on his grey parts and a more muted blue compared to his Hasbro version - as well as a Vehicon tampograph on his shoulder. We've culled a few more comparison images shared by Mr Yuki over the past few days - plus one or two showing other upcoming releases such as Brainstorm.

Interestingly the box - for it looks like the Transformers Legends series is going with boxed releases for Deluxes - reuses the artwork of the Hasbro release, implying the same may also happen for other future releases in the Transformers Legends line.

He's making a "DW-P22E" set which is the set with the glowing Wheeljack ears and a "young" face, as well as making this set - also named DW-P22 Engineer. This second set includes a set of weapons and other accessories to arm-up your Masterpiece Wheeljack, including a hyper shock cannon, a wrench, a welder, a time bomb and a grenade.

Anime-Export has posted some preorders for the Transformers: Robots In Disguise toyline (Takara-Tomy). We've seen most of the figures before, but some figures are actually new. For the first time, we get to see Fixit in toy form. It seems as though he turns into some sort of a motorcycle. New Dinobots are also featured but based on the silhouettes they look as though some redecos of Transformers: Animated Swoop and Snarl. But it's hard to tell whether they are placeholder images or not.

The listing includes Warrior Class, One-Step Changers, Two-packs, Hyper Change and some Age Of Extinction toys including Prowl and Junkheap.

2005 Boards Member Jalaguy has a listed the following:

TAV-01 is Warrior Bumblebee
TAV-02 is Warrior Grimlock
TAV-03 is Warrior Strongarm (pictures are swapped for TAV02 & 03)
TAV-04 is Warrior Steeljaw
TAV-05 is a previously unseen One-Step Changer Fixit (same price as OSC Underbite)
TAV-06 is One-Step Changer Underbite
TAV-07 is Roadblock, a redeco of Thrilling 30 Deluxe Scoop!?
TAV-08 is R Strongarm, presumably some redeco of Warrior Strongarm
TAV-09 is Swoop, seemingly a redeco of Animated Deluxe Swoop
TAV-10 is Snarl, seemingly a redeco of Animated Deluxe Snarl
TAV-11 is Knock Out, a redeco of Beast Hunters Deluxe Knock Out
TAV-12 is Dreadwing, a redeco of Beast Hunters Deluxe Dreadwing

TAVVS-01 seems to be a two-pack of unchanged TAV-01 and -04
TAVVS-02 seems to be a two-pack of unchanged TAV-02 and -08

HA-01 is Hyperchange Hero/Three-Step Changer Bumblebee
HA-02 is Hyperchange Hero/Three-Step Changer Grimlock
HA-03 is One-Step Changer Sideswipe
HA-04 is AOE One-Step Changer Prowl
HA-05 is AOE Power Battler Junkheap, renamed as "Junkion"

Meet Chef Pig as Soundwave.

"Soundwave is the communications officer for the Deceptihogs, and what better way to keep up with modern technology than to use micro-cassettes. Old school, yo! He can jam transmissions, and also jam in general – as you can see. With his concussion blaster, he's a weaponised boombox (so cover your ears)."

Shown on BBTS is the 2015 Rescue Bots Rescan wave featuring the previously revealed Chase and Boulder. But, also revealed is a new Rescan Optimus Prime and the new Rescue Bot, Salvage! Salvage turns into a colorful garbage truck. With the reveal of Salvage here, the question comes to mind of what may have happened to Rubble the Haulbot?

"15 YEARS AGO...we introduced our product by offering our G1 Wheeljack labels for FREE.

Now, for the new Masterpiece version [of Wheeljack], we are doing the same sort of thing! Everyone can add it to their cart for just ONE CENT. It is our way of thanking customers and inviting everyone else to see how far we've come. And that's not all! We've got several other new sets to show you:

• We've got a brilliant set for the new Windblade;
• For Generations Crosscut;
• The new Generations Jetfire;
• Movie Hound;
• And finally, TWO sets for Legends Acidstorm:

  The standard MP-inspired version
  and a more G1 inspired version;

• And a direct link for the ONE CENT MP Wheeljack is here."
