At Takara Tomy’s T-Spark Zone event, fans were treated to the reveal of Basara Prime, a prototype for an upcoming Transformers and Macross 7 crossover.
This collaboration merges the iconic world of Optimus Prime with the energetic style of Macross 7’s singing pilot, Basara Nekki.
Takara Tomy’s official social media accounts shared the teaser image and the crossover is part of their new Synergenex Series, a line of projects combining legendary franchises.
Basara Prime transforms from a fighter jet reminiscent of the VF-19 Custom Fire Valkyrie into a robot that blends Optimus Prime’s iconic silhouette with Basara Nekki’s flamboyant style. Notably, the robot features a guitar strap and is equipped with a guitar.
The figure is expected to ship in Winter 2025, though Takara Tomy has yet to reveal its price.
