Takara Tomy is actively expanding its Transformers toy lines with new releases and reissues, while also extending licensed crossover products in Beyblade X and the Perihapi! figure series.
Takara Tomy has been steadily adding to its Transformers toy portfolio across multiple lines. In July 2026, the company announced a reissue of the Back to the Future collaboration figure Gigawatt in a 40th anniversary package, transforming from the DeLorean time machine into a robot mode modeled after Doc Brown's face. Pre-orders opened July 8, 2026, for a late December 2026 release at 6,600 yen. The same day, Takara Tomy revealed two new sets for the Transformers MPG line: MPG-24 Eject & Amhorn, releasing in late February 2027, and MPG-25 Blaster & Steeljaw, releasing in late March 2027. Both sets include fully transformable figures and accessories based on the classic anime series. Also announced were two new figures in the Transformers Studio Series: TS-37 Starscream MTMTE Collection and TS-38 Prowl MTMTE Collection, both fully transformable figures based on the film series, set for release in late December 2026 with pre-orders opening July 8, 2026.
Beyond Transformers, Takara Tomy Arts, a division of the company, released a new set of trading figures in its Perihapi! Shoulder Lean Hug series featuring characters from Disney/Pixar's Monsters, Inc. The eight-figure lineup includes two secret types and went on sale in July 2026 for 1,870 yen each. Separately, Takara Tomy announced the UX-00 Starter Samurai Saber 5-60K Metal Coat: Samurai Blue Japan National Football Team Ver. Beyblade, a made-to-order product at the JFA STORE.
