Oh, the optimism of youth

Crosscut has leaked. Looking like wave 2 is Crosscut, Animated Prowl, bike Junkion, and probably an unseen Decepticon He's exactly what you think he is, but the silver and red is still quite striking, and I actually dig his character concept...

And Hasbro Pulse is shipping TF Duke. Got my notification last week. Still no word on his Tiger Force buds, though.

A Bravo version (the small ones) of discount Authentic Optimus Primal has been found overseas. Like the Titan Changer, his design is more evocative of the original design than Cheetor's Rise of the Beasts-based Titan Changer. The usual lack of deco aside, he doesn't look bad for a $6-7...

Images are out of a Rise of the Beasts Cheetor toy. What kind? It seems to be some sort of deluxe, given the size comparison with Battletrap, Wheeljack and the larger deluxe Airrazor. If the trailer is accurate, Cheetor (in the film) will be bigger than Bumblebee, so this might be part of the...

Witch from Mercury is now streaming, weekly, from Gundam.info's Youtube channel. New episode every Sunday, in case you didn't want to spend money on Crunchyroll.

I think the Animated Omega is probably the most viable because it can, potentially, hit a lot of targets. An alt mode evoking the Ark, and the Omega robot mode. Maybe in a few years if pricing makes makes rerunning the Ark or Omega Supreme less practical. But we ALL know the Titan we NEED…...

The biggest issue with Gigastorm is that he’s, fundamentally, not THAT a significant a change from Trypticon. Aside from the new head laser cover and some remixed color locations…he still hits about all the same color marks as Trypticon. That said, a Dinosaurer redeco based on the Gum toy...

I didn’t find an overt thread for the the feature film due this spring, so I guess we’ll just use this for all things D&D. Honor Among Thieves will be out at the end of March and Hasbro is rolling a full spread marketing blitz for the film. We’ve already seen a handful of items this past fall...

An online retailer named CollectionToys.com has seemingly leaked the other parts of the Rise of the Beasts Studio Series cases: Battletrap will be joined by Cheetor (SS98), while Airrazor (SS101) will fill out the case with Bumblebee https://collecticontoys.com/collections/rise-of-the-beasts

A great injustice has FINALLY been corrected!

So, I guess the story here is that an independent toy store in Turkey got a bunch of new Hasbro stuff, and the owner’s son decided to share some images. Hopefully, this means we’ll be getting a good look at the rest of the “kids stuff” before too much longer. Smash Changer Optimus Primal...

New stuff may be on the precipice of reveal: Entertainment Earth has notes that Hasbro will be “dropping” a bunch of new product next Saturday, with Transformers explicitly called out. Given Hasbro’s…lack of interest…in the actual kids toys, I feel we might see some wave 1 stuff then. Drops...

Next week will be interesting: Entertainment Earth is now posting a “drop zone” where they reveal when new stuff is slated to be put up for preorder by various companies. Hasbro has a, seemingly, significant drop for next Saturday with Transformers explicitly noted. With Rise of the Beast kids...

That’s against TOS!

I’d just be happy to see a new release (same with Optimus, for that matter) that just omitted the damn stickers. I’d gladly pay up to $70 or so to get that toy without the worry of stickers falling off, or get a few extra paint apps.

Because nobody, besides me, remember there’s a Studio Series thread. My thoughts are over there :p

The newest batch of leaks revealed additional stuff for Rise of the Beasts: Deluxe and Voyager figures NOT tied to the Studio Series. I kind of wonder of they weren’t part of the reason there were no plans for Studio Series stuff last year; if Hasbro wasn’t planning on Deluxe and Voyager...

One of the big reveals in the latest batch of listings was a Studio Series Commander class Ultra Magnus. In my gut, I feel like they’ll end up going for the “Masterpiece-lite” by omitting the cab robot and opening up the trailer for car storage, along with making him a little bigger with more...
