June Transformers From Japan - Part 2

Arriving late last week after a quick journey from Japan came the rest of the June Transformers, along with a die cast car that joined the journey.

The major arrival was the first release in the Japanese Unite Warriors line, Superion who has been given a small makeover by Takara Tomy to be more faithful to the Generation One version than the version released by Hasbro. Set in a fantastic box, it is going to be hard to open this set up!

For some reason, Japan is using the Transformers Adventure line as a 'catch all' line in order to release castings not previously released in the country, although for these two releases (along with last months Insecticon releases), it would seem more appropriate to release these in the Legends line considering it still has pending releases .. but I am not in charge of marketing.

Again both releases have very slight changes over the Hasbro releases, and with Cosmos you do miss out on getting the additional Targetmaster partner released with the Hasbro version.
