Motoki Takaya (高谷元基 Takaya Motoki) is a toy designer at TakaraTomy with a long history of orbiting around the Transformers brand. Coming on to Takara in the 1988, he cut his teeth on the headlining Powered Masters of 1990's Transformers: Zone during his brief stint with the Transformers brand proper. From there, he worked on the original incarnation of the popular Gridman franchise, the 1999 Micro Millenium relaunch of the mother of all pre-Transformer toylines Microman, the 2012 Beast Saga reboot of one-time Generation 1 spinoff Beastformers, and finally landed the gig for which he is best known among shape-morphing toy robot fans today: The lead designer of the fantastically successful (and fantastically expensive) 2016 revival of the pre-Transformer franchise Diaclone.
