The Allspark have managed to get its hands on a copy of Million Publishing's Transformers Generations 2013 book which features previews for many of TakaraTomy's upcoming items for 2013.  The book also comes complete with two mini-comics by artists / writers Yuki Ooshima and Guido Guidi. You can find the scans here.

Scans from this months Hobby Japan have been posted online which include a look at some of the upcoming Transformers figures which are being released by TakaraTomy.

Thanks to RobotKingdom and toy-world.com.hk we can bring you some scans of the latest issues of Figure King magazine as well as Dengeki Hobby Magazine.  Both publications feature similar contents this month and you can view the images below.
