Transformers Studio Series

The Transformers Studio Series has two announced waves from Takara Tomy. TS-37 Starscream and TS-38 Prowl ship in late December 2026, and TS-39 Scourge and TS-40 Blitzwing follow in late January 2027.

Synthesized from 3 Yomimono stories · updated Sep 13

The Transformers Studio Series is filling out its numbered Takara Tomy lineup with figures drawn from the live-action films and the 1986 animated film. The most recent wave in the line is TS-39 Scourge and TS-40 Blitzwing, both announced for late January 2027 at 9,900 yen each. Scourge comes from Transformers: Rise of the Beasts and transforms into a lumber truck, with a weapon included. Blitzwing is a triple-changer with tank and jet modes and carries gun, sword, and big-hand weapon parts.

That wave follows TS-37 Starscream MTMTE Collection and TS-38 Prowl MTMTE Collection, announced in July 2026 for late December 2026 with pre-orders opening July 8, 2026. Both are fully transformable figures based on the film series. The MTMTE Collection naming ties those two to the 1986 animated film rather than the live-action features that supply Scourge.

Coverage sits inside a broader Takara Tomy slate. The same September 9, 2026 pre-order date that applies to the Age of the Primes wave, which centers on the Thirteen Primes with late February 2027 releases, shows the Studio Series and Age of the Primes lines running as separate numbered programs with overlapping windows. What the stories establish for the Studio Series is the numbering and the release windows. No staff, sales, or retail details beyond price and ship dates appear in the coverage.
