General Sites:
Hasbro, the manufacturer of Transformers for markets not handled by Takara, has its own web site, complete with several links and pictures of current and upcoming figures. Hasbro has several Japanese-exclusive Takara figures available from its site.
This is Takara's base page for boys' toys from which you can visit its various Transformers sections, divided by series. They include Generation One, Robot Masters, The Micron Legend (Armada), Super Link (Energon), and Galaxy Force (Cybertron). Not sure why Takara doesn't put them all together under a general Transformers page like Hasbro does, though. <shrug>

Robbie Trinidad's page contains pictures scanned directly from the Masterforce series of Ginrai's appearances under "The Powermaster Optimus Prime Page" link. There are also pictures taken from the Victory series of Saber's appearances under the "Pic(k)s of the Month" link. The pictures are quite good, and I use some of them on the Japanese TF pages.
