The Third Party Transformers Group TF Fourth Party have posted an image on Weibo of a silhoutte of a figure based on Omega Supreme which they will be releasing in 2014.  No information is given on the figure other than the size is planned to be that of TFC Hercules

The Twitter account of Hasui Akira Satoru, one of the developers at Takara Tomy, has been updated with a silhouette image of the upcoming Transformers Masterpiece 20 figure. Officially still not named, the character is clearly Wheeljack and we fully expect will result in a recolour baesd on the G1 European Exclusive Action Master Slicer.

The latest issue of Dengeki Hobby Magazine has revealed that the original Masterpiece line toy designer, Hironori Kobayashi, will be replacing the current designer Shoji Kawamori as the man in charge of all of the 2014 Masterpiece figures with the exception of Star Saber who is being designed by Shoji Kawamori.  Hironori Kobayashi designed the MP-01 through MP-10 at which point Shoji took over and has designed all of the of "new" figures since MP-10.

The Transformers Collector's Club has updated their website with the cover of issue 54 of the Collectots Club magazine with what wil contain a "very revealing interview with Duane Capizzi from the Transformers: Prime series (including an exclusive coupon code for the Predacons Rising DVD), a two page spread featuring the G1 Predacons, two all-new MTMTE profiles and the final installment of BEAST WARS: Shattered Glass featuring a most epic conclusion, and a cameo appearance, that you won't want to miss!"

The cover of the magazine features Generations Rattrap who was designed by Emiliano Santalucia who confirmed the figure during Roll Out Roll Call 2013 here within the UK.

Alfes 2010 has posted an article over on his blog featuring the recently released TakaraTomy Transformers Generations TG-26 Bumblebee Goldbug and TG-27 Trailbreaker & Hoist. The images, he has posted, include comparison shots to their Hasbro counterparts (though he compares Goldbug to Bumblebee and not Goldfire). All of the toys feature alternate decos to their western release with the usual metallic paint applications but also it should be noted that Goldbug coes with a blue Generations Bumblebee head and not the Goldfire one. A Trailbreaker also features a red visor making the toy a close homage to the original G1 figure whilst Hoist features a darker shade of green.  You can view all of the images by clicking the link above.

The Takara-Tomy Mall and eHobby websites have both been updated with the first official "in-packaging" images of the Transformers CloudOptimus Prime and Megatron figures.  The toys are, of course, exclusive to the  Takara-Tomy Mall and eHobby, respectively. Both packages feature the same character art that has been shown before as well as Takara's version of the 30th Anniversary symbol.

TakaraTomy have posted two new images of their upcoming Transformers Go! G25 Leo Prime BLack Version. The figure is a black, white and green recolour of Leo Prime but with Kenzan's swords.  The figure will be released in December priced at 4200yen. You can view the images below.

Fans Toys have posted up images of the Triceratops mode for their upcomming 3rd Party Transformers Masterpiece Scoria (Slag) toy.  The figre was previously seen in robot mode, and made quite an impact on the Transformers fans community.  The new images of the dinosaur mode are set to do the same.

The official announcement of the winner of the Fans Choice Masterpiece competition will be announced live via YouTube in a little over 2 hours and 20 minutes but the results have already been confirmed in the latest issue of Figure King magazine (via taghobby). 86.9% of the votes made up the top 5 positions. The end results were:

• 1.STAR SABER - 31.2% of the vote
  

• 2.CONVOY(Micron Legend AKA Armada) - 24.3% of the votes
• 3.SUPER GINRAI - 18.5% of the votes

So it looks like fans of Transformers Victory will be their wish of a Masterpiece.  With Star Saber winning this does increase the chances of a Victory Leo Masterpiece figure also being made.
