A Shield Liger that turns into a robot is cool but an Optimus Prime and Megatron with a Godzilla logo on it is pretty lame when MechaGodzilla is right there to make into a Beastformer.

Wouldn't a MechaGodzilla transformer be redundant when Megatron looks like it's going to transform into Godzilla.

Shield-D-Prime sounds like it should be the name of a One Piece character.

Getting an official Transformers Valkyrie decades after the Jetfire debacle on top of a transforming Zoid is ALMOST enough to forgive their alleged roadmap for the franchise that doubles down on Earthspark, AR games, and their looter shooter that’s been in development hell.

Seeing new images and yeah they're using the Studio Series Grimlock mold for Megatron which is what threw me off since I assumed it was yet another Siege/Earthrise Megatron remold. The Optimus is just Legacy G2 Optimus so that "Kiryu" is just going to be a truck sadly..

It seems Takara-Tomy are planning some interesting projects. The Zoids × Spider-Man collaboration looks kind of random at first glance, but it actually makes sense with you take into consideration that Marvel UK used to publish a comic-book about Zoids back in the '80s that featured some reprints of old Spider-Man stories, and the interesting part is that the original Zoids stories were written by Grant Morrison
