Synthesized from 9 Yomimono stories · updated 5h ago

Takara Tomy's recent announcements show a broad portfolio across its core brands. In Transformers, the company is adding figures to both the Studio Series and the Masterpiece-style MPG line. Studio Series gains TS-37 Starscream and TS-38 Prowl from the 1986 animated film, plus TS-39 Scourge and TS-40 Blitzwing from the live-action movies. The MPG line adds cassette bot sets Eject & Amhorn and Blaster & Steeljaw, as well as Destron Rhinox from Beast Wars. These figures are spread across releases from late December 2026 to late March 2027.

Beyond Transformers, Takara Tomy is pushing licensed and original properties. The Toy Rise Mospeada line offers a three-unit SKUNKs set of Legioss fighters from Genesis Breaker Mospeada ANOTHER GENESIS. A board game, Dragon Quest Life Game, adapts the RPG into the Life Game format. The company also reissues a Back to the Future collaboration figure, Gigawatt, in a 40th anniversary package. Takara Tomy Arts, a separate division, is releasing Monsters, Inc. trading figures in its Perihapi! Shoulder Lean Hug series.

Beyblade X sees a made-to-order release tied to the Japan national football team. Across all these lines, Takara Tomy is using preorder and made-to-order models to manage supply, and pricing ranges from 1,870 yen for a trading figure to 44,000 yen for the Mospeada set.
