Weirdly it's sorta IDW Orion with the face and description of Dreamwave Orion.
- ZacWilliam, don't think anyone called that.

Removing the clear plastic to skip out on paying for four cents of sprues looks really bad.
Glad it's RiD15 Strongarm and Cyberverse Shadow Striker in the next wave; was really hoping it'd be those two.
The Ratbat/Megs twopack is definitely the winner of this subline so far.
Agreed.
Some people over at TFW have spotted what looks to be a Cyberton Prime into Nova Prime remold in the background of the Shockwave/Orion box art (not my picture):
If so, that would be another great toy from this line.
Quick note, Amazon currently has the prices reversed, so they have the Voyager Megatron/Ratbat 2-Pack listed for $55. They'll probably correct it soon, but they're usually good about honoring mispriced listings.
That would be nice to see revealed fully
Dai Atlas was a senator too, so we can throw in his Legends toy from (checks date).. 2019!? (faints from the passage of time).
Miner Megatron looks great, I really like the dark grey. Senator Shockwave is something I've thought about but can't believe my eyes that it's happening, and I need.
Orion is good, but kind of weird how they took his head design from Guido's Spotlight comic, and teased making another Orion based on the story with Shockwave and semi-joked about repainting Shockwave in his other colors.
Going to need that Nova Prime when he's announced, that's another dream figure.
Edit: Oh yeah forgot, very excited for Strongarm I hope she's one of the better other universe in Legacy toys

In other words, Aligned Orion.
Also, there was no "Dreamwave Orion" (unless you count this). His name there was "Optronix".
I'm late to all this, and I may have missed it if it was already addressed, but I find it odd that in this case, where the Siege 'Dirt Deco' would be logical for Megatron, they left it out.
...That Orion Pax is TOTALLY a Ironfist pre-tool, isn't he?
Miner Megatron and Ratbat- Solid, but Megatron is kind of "meh" after so many uses, even with the new accessories. Ratbat is beautiful, and I love the callback to Ratbat being a retool of the last major Scourge mold.
Shockwave and Pax- Again, Pax just SCREAMS that he's going to get partialed into Ironfist at some point in the future. Shockwave is quite compelling. While I don't have any attachment to the story or character interpretation, it's still a VERY compelling toy concept with some nice new parts.
Both have one REALLY strong figure paired with an...okay...figure, in terms of what I have and what I can see being reused in the future. Not sure I can justify a purchase at full price.
But the news of Nova Prime? THAT has my attention. I've basically had to give up the idea of Hasbro revisiting the "Battle Core" variation for future Optimus revisits, so Nova Prime will probably be the closest we get to that. He's at the top of my list for this Pre-War theme.
For future reveals, I'm excited for Strongarm, love the character, and am eagerly awaiting Detritus to join my Mercenary crew Earthrise got me.

Why stop at Senators?
Give me Iacon City Comptroller Windblade. Schoolboard Treasurer Broadside. Township Zoning Commissioner Ramhorn.

As for the Pipeline reveals, super excited about Detritus. Shocked that it took this long to get what should be a quick-and-easy Hound repaint.
It's probably because the last actual dedicated Hound mold we got before Siege was made by a Hasbro team whose reaction to any inquiry about making a new Detritus would have likely been "Who?"

Sure enough. Though it's also weird that they have the available dates switched too. Well, I went ahead and ordered it. We'll see what happens.
Isn't it just Siege Hound with a new hood and whatnot?
