2023 Shanghai Expo Reveals SS 102 ROTB Optimus Prime and Displays New Legacy Toys

Postby william-james88 » Sun May 07, 2023 7:32 am

Motto: "'till All Are One"
Seems like it has been a while since we got a reveal at a toy show. The Shanghai Expo is underway right now and Hasbro has a really nice display for the latest Transformers figures, including the reveal of Studio Series Rise of the Beasts Optimus Prime. This item will be released in the Buzzworthy Bumblebee line, which means it will be a Target Exclusive toy in the US. This is a partial of SS BB Optimus Prime but it looks like most of the parts are different. As with the mainline ROTB voyager toy, there is a lot of unpainted grey plastic. You'll let us know what you think. The latest reveals from the Legacy line were also on display, like the Nemesis and leader class Armada Megatron. These images come from Weibo.

I still don't know if I'm getting anything from Rise of the Beasts, but that Optimus Prime does look very nice. I imagine he'll be an absolute pain to get hold of though.

I'm definitely excited for Armada Optimus and Megatron, they both look fantastic here. And it's good to see the Nemesis next to other figures so I can get a rough idea how big it is.

I was worried when I heard ROTB Prime was maybe going to a be a remold of the Bee Prime, because I don't care for that look, but really like what Rise is doing to make him feel more like the past movies style and I'm really liking what this toy is doing. My only hope is that he can have the sword coming out of his arm like it is in the trailers.

Also I hope that Crashbar doesn't get repainted into a Animated Lockdown like everyone keeps saying. I already don't like the arms on that mold and it just doesn't have the lanky assassin look that character is meant to have. After Cyberverse turning him into a weak joke character I just want his return to be the best it can be.

I dont normally collect the movie figures unless I can find a way to fit them in with my generations figures, but that Optimus is looking pretty good. May just have to get it

I mean, there is a port on the side of his right arm, and there a peg on the side of the sword, so it should be somewhat possible.

There also looks to be a port right next to his hand, and if it's removable or able to transform away that should work too

Great displays!

Armada Megatron looks good. Gamer Barricade and Bee still look like crap.

The rest I have no interest in besides Armada Prime and Nemesis and they're already preordered.

More details on that figure than the Bee version I think. It looks really good!

Yeah, the arms on both Legacy Junkions are their weakest feature (though for different reasons). I initially ordered 2 Scraphooks but returned one of them, not good enough to double-dip.

Probably wasn't enough room for both in one display case. The Nemesis takes up a lot of real estate.
