Bishoujo Transformers Thundercracker Figure Pre-orders Open

Back in July 2023, Kotobukiya announced there would be a Bishoujo Transformers Thundercracker figure. It is expected to appear in Japan in June 2024 and in North America between July and September 2024. 

When Thundercracker appears, she will be ¥17,000/$170. Pre-orders are open until December 19, 2023 through Kotobukiya’s Japanese storefront, while Sideshow doesn’t note a cut-off date for the US pre-orders. The figure will stand at about eight and a half inches tall (215mm), including the purple Decepticon base she’s standing on. She’s a 1/7th scale figure, and the company noted it isn’t planning any reprints of her past her initial run.

Here’s a closer look at how Thundercracker is expected to look.

As a reminder, this is a limited edition recolor of the upcoming Bishoujo Transformers Starscream figure. Pre-orders for it opened back in August 2023. That will appear ahead of this variant, with it showing up in Japan in April 2024 and worldwide between May and July 2024. It is one of three planned styles, with the third Skywarp figure still without a painted prototype or release window.

The Bishoujo Transformers Thundercracker figure will come to Japan in June 2024, followed by a North American release between July and September 2024. She’ll join characters like Bumblebee and Megatron.
