There is a Mcgufin that the Terrorcons are after, the Beasts are rising and Optimus is likely going to ask them "Can you Rise?"
This is just me speculating, but my suspicion is that Hasbro just thought "why not just make the Studio Series toys when the movie is released?" since that does look more straightforward on paper, and then Studio Series VW Bee ended up with prominent door wings that had been dropped from the onscreen design and they were like "oh, that's why."Ahhhh ok. I guess that makes sense? What confused me was I thought that Generations Studio Series had kind of become the synonymous stand-in for the official subline brand for mainline adult collector-level version of the figures for the movie lines. Much like for the Bumblebee movie, in that there were only the kiddie-play lines, and the "mainline" figures for the movie for adult collectors were all lumped and released under the Generations Studio Series brand. So I guess they're bringing back the mainline brands is the memo I missed. Ok, well.... more toys to buy I suppose.
I personally don’t think they cared *that* much about that one mold and that one esoteric piece of fanism, but I get your point.This is just me speculating, but my suspicion is that Hasbro just thought "why not just make the Studio Series toys when the movie is released?" since that does look more straightforward on paper, and then Studio Series VW Bee ended up with prominent door wings that had been dropped from the onscreen design and they were like "oh, that's why."
There is absolutely no stock photo of the packaging for Leader Class Scourge, a figure that Hasbro has already officially announced and is available for preorder in multiple places, which Hasbro is asking fan sites not to report on for inexplicable reasons.
This is totally not happening. Because it would be absolutely silly.
What's this? Must be fake.

The image shows spoilers that would totally ruin the movie-going experience of anyone who even briefly glanced in it's direction.
The film is about TRANSFORMING GIANT ROBOTS FROM SPACE FIGHTING EACH OTHER. And explosions.Then they shouldn't of put spoilers on the packing to start with, but then the trailers haven't really given us any idea what the plot of the film is about, aside from Optimus prime meeting Primal, Mirge/Jazz knock off/Hound impersonator, meeting a human, driving a cross a bridge chased by the police and using his hologram abbilty and darkness is rising, so fans would like a bit of info about the film, I have a feeling that the film isn't going to do very well at the box office because the trailers aren't giving us a sense of what the plot is about!

What more do you want?
It turns out Scourge is Optimus Prime's father.
Unless I'm mistaken and there was a back of box image...that EXACT sequence is featured heavily the existing trailer for the film. More likely, Hasbro contracted someone for the "world exclusive REVEAL" for that.The image shows spoilers that would totally ruin the movie-going experience of anyone who even briefly glanced in it's direction.
Send it back for a replacement?I ordered Studio Series Airazor and Cheetor off Amazon, and despite the muted colors; they are beautiful.
Unfortunately my cheetor came with two right shins, so if anyone happens to get two left shins we can fix two cheetors, if willing.
Hassle? Amazon Japan (for us over here) will pick it up from our house or we can send it back to them for free via a convenience store post service.In robot mode he locks together perfectly, but his back thigh just doesn't close entirely in cat mode. The hassle of getting it replaced isn't something I'm going to bother with, but if anybody buys his mirror twin, i got you.
