Transformers.com has been updated with a new news article
here regarding Primus.
Primus Update
Q: What's the latest on the new Cybertron Primus item for this fall? When will it be available? I heard that the US version will have something unique vs. the Japanese version- what's the scoop?
A: We can tell by the number of emails that there is great excitement for this character. The mighty creator of the Transformers race will be released this summer to all stores. You can change him from robot-mode to battle station-mode to planet-mode, and unlock cool features with the Cyber Planet Key. In addition, the INITIAL quantities will include a bonus 3-inch battle-damaged Unicron head (US only). Here's the first look at the Unicron head. Enjoy!

Our good friends over at
Fan2Fan have information and images from the latest batch of Japanese Hobby Magazines. The biggest news comes from Figure Oh. This is what Fan2Fan report.
Figure Oh!:
1. This issue special was on "Koeda-chan & friends", a classic line from Takara, inside the special there was an article on interviews with all the developers from all the lines Takara carries, under the Transformers section, it was stated that 2006 is the year where the Transformers line will be "officially" aimed towards grown-up market. Currently new releases are planned on an almost bi-monthly frequency, focusing on quality than quantity.The team hinted that while they are unable to give away anything yet at this time, they promised "big suprises" to come from Summer to end of the year...
Many will no doubt read "Movie Toys" into those statements, but only time will tell.
