NEW! It seems one should never bet against Optimus Prime. While the Transformers community had a good laugh at the $80 1/64 scale Hotwheels collector toy, it seems there were more than enough people out there willing to spend that amount on that small fully die cast Optimus Prime. The transforming G1 styled Hotwheels Optimus Prime sold out in 27 minutes on the Mattel Creations site.
This is encouraging for Mattel as it means their effort and investment in the license was far from in vain. It - Read More

Drug smuggling is all about creativity and it looks like Transformers statues were someone's bright idea this time.
700 pounds of ketamine were confiscated by Thailand authorities. These drugs were found in what is said to be lifesize Transformer robot statues. It is unclear if those are the same statues shown in the image, since those are not lifesize, nor could they hold this much product.

We thank John Bailey for letting us know of this cute cameo. In this promo video for the movie IF, we see various animated characters audition to be Imaginary Friends, and Optimus Prime (sporting his ROTB look) is one of them. John Krasinski gets really excited and even makes the transforming sound.

From e-bay, we have in hand images of the upcoming deluxe Legacy Lockdown. He will be in Walmart's exclusive Star Raiders subline, which is part of Legacy. While he is much shorter than previous Lockdown toys, the fact that he is based on a Junkion mold means you can make him taller using other Junkion parts, which is somewhat thematic with the character, as designer Mark Maher had said. The images below compare this toy to the ROTF Lockdown toy, which is the reference for the new toy's - Read More

There is currently a rumour within the community based on insider information, detailing that a new animated Transformers show is currently in development. Very little info has been given but the rumour would entail that Earthspark would end after season 2. We do not know if this was always intentional or not, since it could be that the new show is more in line with the TF One film, with Earthspark existing as a show to providing content for the brand before a new era. The initial rumour also - Read More

You probabably noticed that yesterday's reveals did not seem numerous enough to fill a whole wave of Studio Series toys. Well that's because the wave will be made up mostly of repacks, and we now know their contents thanks to listings on Entertainment Earth. You'll notice that 86 Bumblebee and TF One Prime are not there and that's because they are in their own specific case that retailers can order all year round.
Core wave 10

Images of Transformers Studio Series leader class Springer are being shared online, coming from an e-bay listing. They show a comparison between this new Springer and the voyager mold it's based on (specifically the Amazon exclusive toy based redeco). We can now see how much retooling or new tooling is involved, such as the head, chest, ect. We also see that the new one has articulated hands and comes with more accessories. You'll let us know if it's worth it to get this new one or - Read More

Mattel creations is doing something unheard of, they are releasing a licensed Transformers toy that actually transforms. Hasbro had put a stop to that a long time ago, which is why McDonalds Happy Meal toys haven't transformed for over 15 years. But they are letting Mattel release their version of G1 Optimus Prime as a 1/64 scale fully die-cast transforming toy within their Hotwheels line. This special figure will cost fans $80 though. Below are images and the product - Read More

Notes from the live stream:
SS86 Core Steeljaw - Confirms the speaker does attach to Blaster.
SS Gamer Edition Deluxe Decepticon Trooper - Very heavily retooled from Barricade. Evan claims the green is game accurate despite how dark he looked in the game.
SS Bumblebee Movie Voyager Skywarp - Exactly what you would expect for a a repaint of Starscream, does feature a new head similar to Blitzwing's.
SS86 Leader Springer - New chest, head, shoulders and opening hands plus new - Read More

Today's Hasbro Pulse livestream on YouTube was Studio Series heavy when it came to in hand reveals, but at the end of the stream during their Spacebridge portal reveals they gave us our first look at some long leaked figures making up Wave 4 of Legacy. Surprisingly instead of using random art they used the actual package art that will appear with the toys at the end of the year! We also got a few tidbits about what to expect from some of the figures:

The Transformers Reactivate game has gone through multiple iterations. It was initially called Transformers Rise and now the opening cutscene that was originally made for that initial iteration has leaked. It is a series of slightly moving images, which we’ve seen in low effort online coop or multiplayer shooter games.
This will probably not be the cutscene we get when Reactivate finally comes out but it gives a sense of the kind of game it is and its budget. More importantly, it reveals - Read More

While Apelinq did not have a robot mode in the movie, there was a fan design for one and Yolopark will be using it as a basis for their officially licensed Apelinq mode kit/figure. They are going all out on this one by having extra weaponry, a lengthier model kit experience, and a magnetized base. You can even choose to give Apelinq extra hair or not. If you want the lowest price, the figure can be ordered from their website. Shipping isn't cheap though. BBTS is also importing this model kit, - Read More

A lot of new Transformers One toys were revealed today. This line is bringing back a lot of gimmicks that a lot of their audience was not around for then. For instance, we have Botshots of Optimus and Megatron, which are the TRANSFORMERS ONE RACE CHANGERS 2-PACK and the TRANSFORMERS ONE RACE AND BLAST 2-PACK which is a throwback to the Deployer gimmick from Robots in Disguise (2015).
There are many more toys, some for very little kids, like a non converting Optimus figure that goes from "no - Read More

The Transformers One toyline will mostly be gimmick figures, either one steps or the type that can battle eachother Rock’m Sock’m Robots style, but there will be some more traditional deluxes as well.
Those are called Prime Changers and so far we saw Optimus Prime and Alpha Trion. We knew there would be more but due to the use of code names, we didnt know which other characters it would be. Well, after getting all the recent product descriptions, which you can read below, we now can - Read More
