I wouldn't mind if they skip his trailer so that I don't have another lame box sitting around like I have with all the Optimus Prime, Scourge and Toxitron Trailers. Although those last two are only one each. and that trailer isn't actually all that bad. So it's all the Earthrise trailer molds that we've been accumulating that bother me. ER, AU, Netflix Spoiler, Holiday, VNR. That's five right? I have six since I have two Alternate Universe Primes as I wanted to turn one into Nemesis but then never got around to it. Kind of like how Hasbro hasn't gotten around to an Earthrise Prime as Nemesis either. At least Netflix Optimus and SG Optimus don't come with trailers. Doubt it'll be Code Red outside of Target, Pulse calls that figure out as a Target Exclusive. Wonder if it could possibly be a TMNT crossover, I know one was allegedly proposed and rejected. It's possible it could have gotten revived. I really should take pics as I've been asked several times about my customs before. I thought I had at least one but that must have been on my previous laptop. For now, settle for my custom GUOP pelvis that allows for a perfect transformation with thigh extenders until I dig Nova out tomorrow. Also works for Siege Ultra Magnus too but not quite for the Kingdom retool, not that it matters for that version of the mold anyway. I haven't tried either but the retooled front bumper infringes on that space in an attempt to fill it in so there's not as much room there anymore for the hips and thighs as with the other two versions of the mold. You mean my constant rambling? lol. Thanks, nice to know that someone other than Bacon read my nonsense.
Wave 4 is going to be interesting though with two figures for well known characters that we have no clue as to what they're going to be referencing. A Frenzy that may just be a name mess up. A WFC voyager Ratchet that hopefully is better than the rest of the line. I don't doubt Starscream will be good though. I mean, how could they mess that up right? And Leader Springer. We'll at least have some idea what's going on here as we'll see Sandstorm long before we see Springer. That will be the gauge as to if they'll be heavy retools or not. INCH SCALE IRONHIDE TOY: Transformers Studio Series Ironhide action figure is highly articulated for posability and features movie-inspired deco and details Kup, as a Triple T? Kup? KUP? Where's the Optimus Prime for this line already? It's nice to see Kup and all but what the hell? Kup? I had to look up what a Triple T was and that's not exactly screaming Kup. Neither was the vehicle for Bumblebee or Soundwave but still. I guess the front scoop thing of the figure looks a bit like Kup. I'd think that maybe maybe Seaspray, Warpath and Powerglide would make for better GI Joe crossovers but okay. I'll get this but when it goes on sale and it WILL go on sale. Well, December 6th is Hasbro's 100th anniversary and I keep expecting special versions of major characters but there's been no indication of that. While it has never been confirmed, the move to include 1986 characters in the Studio Series toyline after three years of continuous focus on the live-action films, was likely done to allow Hasbro and TakaraTomy to celebrate the 35th anniversary of the film, without stepping on the toes of the Beast Wars 25th anniversary, which was celebrated as a part of the War for Cybertron Trilogy. Evidence suggesting this is the inclusion of some of the film's main characters ( Cyclonus, Rodimus Prime and Galvatron) being sold in the concurrently-ran Kingdom toyline and the shared design aesthetics of the toys between both lines.Brimstone is fairly self explanatory as well. The yellow is Testors flat Sunflower if I recall correctly. The purple is the same mix I used for Toxitron I think. The chest was also mixed and it ended up being a lighter shade than I wanted. It looks more "fleshy" than I would've liked but it's okay. Prime Strongarm is a long time coming. She needs to be bumped up to the top 20 or so Autobots that get made. She had a good design and personality and her alt mode is pretty good too being a larger automobile. Most importantly though she can be used as a basis for Smallfoot and any chance to get some more Gobots is always a win. I also want Gregevor/Greejeeber, "patrol mode" Strongarm, "desert camo" Strongarm, "arctic" Strongarm (was she in that mission?), armored up Strongarm and Ratchet too. Just give me all the Strongarms.
TRANSFORMERS STUDIO SERIES CORE CLASS: These 3.5-inch collectible action figures for boys and girls are inspired by iconic movie scenes and designed with details to reflect the Transformers movie universe With our first look, yesterday, at two Studio Series toys coming out in 2023, I thought it would be a good time to consolidate all the listings we got to give you a full view of what is coming out next year in that line. It will be a mix of toys for characters from the Rise of the Beasts movie (labelled as TF7 in toy listings, two of which are still code names), War for Cybertron High Moon Game, 86 Movie Michael Bay films (of which there is only one so far). We do not know the full wave breakdown and that will always be subject to change, but below you will find the full list organized by price point. This does not include exclusive Studio Series toys like the upcoming Hatchet. I must say, I'm pretty impressed with figure. Honestly, Stegosaurus is not my high favorite Dinosaur. But Still an awesome figure. Hasbro is really going the extra mile tot make Transformers toys more accurate to classic show or the classic movie. This item is currently scheduled for release, but is not yet available at mass retail. Hatchet, Hound
The code names of many of the other figures, assuming they even had code names, are still unknown, as those toys have (thus far) consistently been listed under their actual characters' names. Meanwhile, a listing for a supposed Voyager Class figure using the code name "Destroyer" later turned out to be a mislabeled Energon Igniters Speed Series Barricade from the Bumblebee movie toy line, with which the Studio Series shares its code names. The way it's configured, at least in these photos, makes the tail seem WAY too stubby. From a 3/4 angle, you can't see the tail at all. And the photos from the side, make it look like he's passing something uncomfortable after a meal. Deluxe "Rise" Lifeline? She wasn't in Rise of the beasts nor the Rising game. So I don't know. Oh okay, Reactivate. I still don't know lol. I was thinking SSBB Arcee in Lifeline colors. I'll take more of that mold. But this appears to be something we haven't seen yet for a game that's not out yet. Interesting that Lifeline made the cut. Maybe it's not the Lifeline we're used to or maybe she'll have a larger role in the game as the primary or secondary medic. This item is currently scheduled for release, but is not yet available at mass retail. Cores, Deluxes, Megatron It's baffling as to why Hasbro does and doesn't do things. Especially Polar Claw. They know people are very upset about not getting him so you'd think they would've made him by now. Rhinox is right there to be retooled into him. It wouldn't be too difficult to do and there's even redeco potential for the retool after that.
ICONIC MODES: This action figure for 8 year old boys and girls features classic conversion between robot and van modes in 15 steps Leader Tigerhawk, voyager Silverbolt, voyager Thundertron and voyager Cybertron Starscream? That's like the best leak ever. i couldn't care less about voyager Animated Optimus Prime though unless he has his jet armor and the Magnus hammer. Doesn't mean I won't get it though. Other than Tigerhawk and Silverbolt pretty much having the same alt mode just using different animals, this is a fairly diverse lineup. I just really, really, really, really hope that Thundertron isn't just a retool of Leo Prime. Have Prime ThunderTRON be its own mold with Cyberverse ThunderHOWL as his retool. Go! Prime and Alpha Trizer could also be reuses of Thundertron.I hope it looks better when we get better photos of it. Not that it looks bad though as the original toy is really good. This just looks a little weird or the light's catching it oddly or something.
Of course Energon Galvatron was going to happen. It would just be nice to see what they plan on doing with Energon Megatron as a core class to begin with though. Hey, there's that new Drift I've seen people asking for after the last set of leaks. I missed that weird Drift set with the Dinobots so I'd like another shot at him. Not that I'm all that excited for him since it is just a SS figure afterall. I'll get it, enjoy transforming it a few times then forget I have it. Of course Sideburn was being made. That was painfully obvious when we first seen Shadow Striker. I do hope to get all the colors though including the OTFCC versions of Roulette and Shadow Striker.Here we have the entire Studio series Dinobot cast, minus Swoop. Again, they really improved with these Dinobots. Especially improvement from the G1 toys. Hey some news on BB SS86 Hound. So people can stop thinking that it's cancelled now. I was just looking at this today on the wiki, it still looks really good. I really like how the legs were retooled to have less bulk compared to the Siege mold. To do a comparison. Here we have the original Power of the Prime Deluxe Snarl. They really improved with the figure in Studio series. I originally wanted to compare with G1 Snarl, but I couldn't find it at the moment.
Great Deal
