The Toy Aisle Just Got Nuked: Tariffs, Panic, and a Last-Minute Plot Twist in the World of Collectibles Transformers collectors — and anyone with a pop culture pulse — just took a direct hit in the wallet. On Tuesday afternoon, TFSource and BigBadToyStore sounded the alarm with urgent messages about massive import hikes. Then less than 24 hours later, Trump rolled out a 90-day “pause” dropping most tariffs to 10% — except for China, which got slapped with a brutal 125% rate - Read More

Earthspark still has some gems to give us this year. Fans were excited for the new Soundwave deluxe but there was still question about the alt mode. Well, turns out it looks great too. Unlike many other plane transformers, this stealth bomber is very flat and has a nice wingspan. The Images from Omega The Real on Twitter also show waist articulation and the size, which is the standard deluxe size in the line. Let us know what you think of this - Read More

Pre-orders have begun for MPG-17 Optimus Prime Style Generation and it may not be the figure that many of us thought it was. The use of "Generation" in the name of this new ongoing aesthetic series makes it sound like the figure would be at the Generations scale like MPG-09 Super Ginrai, but it turns out that's not the case. Store listings are placing Prime at 245mm putting him closer in line with MP-10 and MP-44. Just when we think we have the MPG line figured out Takara Tomy finds new ways - Read More

It's liberation day, with Trump placing the highest US tariffs of the generation against nations which are at the centre of our beloved Transformers toy brand. These have been erroneously referred to as "reciprocal tariffs" and are instead duty fees based on the trade surplus/deficit ratio. And one of the countries most impacted by that is none other than Vietnam, where Transformers are made. Trump's tariff on anything made in Vietnam and brought into the US is a whopping 46%. This is - Read More

Next year marks the 40th anniversary of the 86 film, so with Studio Series being where that subline lives, it basically takes over most of the line. 2/3 of 2026' main retail line will be 86 figures, including Shockwave, Kranix and the seekers, but there will still be two Bayverse figures and three TFOne figures, one of them being Airachnid.

We share with you the sad news that veteran actor and voice artist Clive Revill has passed away at the age of 94. While Ian McDiarmid is widely recognized for portraying Emperor Palpatine, it was Clive Revill who originally voiced the character in the 1980 film The Empire Strikes Back. Star Wars fans may remember the eerie and distinct voice of Palpatine as it first appeared via hologram — and that voice belonged to Revill. Clive Revill also lent his talents to the role of Alfred - Read More

Thanks to JTPrime17, we now have our first listing for the 2026 Age of the Primes line and it is none other than Big Convoy.

Takara has revealed a new Masterpiece Optimus Prime through a post on X. This Optimus Prime is their take on what the Masterpiece version of a current generations Optimus Prime would be. Now that gets confusing and disorienting since the generations toys, especially the SS86 ones, have been becoming mini masterpiece toys, being more and more faithful to the G1 cartoon. But Takara is going the other way, with basically seeing the Earthrise Optimus Prime toy as its own design, independent of G1 - Read More
