One of 2024's leaders in the Legacy line is known to be Soundwave. Now people were wondering if that meant a new mold, a larger figure, or a rerelease of the previous mold with cassettes. Well, it's the latter and we know that from JTPrime17 who confirmed it. It is said to be a repaint of the Walmart's exclusive Soundwave from the Netflix line and for it to be at the leader class price point, it will come with extra figures/cassettes, though we don't know exactly what those will be yet.

Here is the listing for those curious:

TRA GEN LEGACY UNI LEADER SOUNDWAVE
Product Number: F9188

While we know all the Legacy and Studio Series coming out this year, we still didn't know all exclusives. JTPrime17 is sharing some listings with us regarding non general release items:

TRA GEN SELECTS DLX 3 PACK TREDS, PATHFINDER, & SMALLFOOT
Product Number: F9650

This is not an exclusive but it won't be found in stores either, so preorder it from whichever online retailer you feel most comfortable with when it is made available. These are redecos of recent figures to represent Go Bot characters. Pathfinder, for instance, will be a redeco of Cosmos. It might be grey to match the original Go Bots toy or blue to match the Transformers homage figure.


TRA BB GEN SS 2 PACK VOY 86 RATCHET, & DLX 86 BRAWN (battle damaged)
Product Number: F9878

TRA OPTIMUS PRIME AND AUTOBOT BULLSEYE
Product Number: F9652

Those two are Target exclusives. The 86 two pack will be battle damaged, same as the Ironhide/Prowl pack. The Optimus toy will be a redeco of the G2 laser Optimus cab (again) with the standard Earthrise trailer in a Target themed deco. Bullseye is a repaint of the micro-master Ravage mold.


TRA GEN RETRO OPTIMUS PRIME
Product Number: G0153

TRA GEN RETRO BOMBSHELL & RAMHORN
Product Number: G0237

TRA GEN LEGACY STARSEEKERS DLX ROADPIG
Product Number: G0232

Those three are all Walmart exclusives. The retros are G1 toys in cartoon deco, and Optimus will come with a trailer. We knew of the upcoming Walmart exclusive Starseeker line. Roadpig is a retool of Crashbar, letting us finally complete the Junkasaurus combiner.


TRA GEN MAYHEM VOY BLUDGEON & DLX RUCKUS
Product Number: G0182

Amazon’s exclusive this year are the Mayhem Attack Squad, which will be 3 multipacks, with a total of 7 figures.

We now have more images of Earthrise Trailbreaker in toon colours. This would be from the upcoming Autobot 5 pack within the Generations Selects line, the same 5 pack which includes Hound. That means that the other figures in the pack, like Sunstreaker and Wheeljack, would also be in toon colours. The new images from Yahoo and E-Bay also give us a look at the alt mode. Since the main plastic colour is grey rather than black, the wheels are molded in the same colour and become grey as well. Let us know what you feels about this deco now that you have a better look at it.

We thank Sowndwave76 for letting us know of new images showing us a first look at an upcoming Transformers Sunstreaker toy. While it has not been confirmed, we had listings of a Movie 6 Sunstreaker which would make this a concept art figure, similar to the leader Megatron toy we are also getting in Studio Series. There's a few images of the toy below in both his modes along with his weapon accessory.

Let us know if you think this is a worthwhile toy to add to your collection.

We thank Sowndwave76 for letting us know of an image that popped up online as a leak. It is an image of Earthrise Trailbreaker in toon colours with no more use of clear plastic. This would be from the upcoming Autobot 5 pack within the Generations Selects line, the same 5 pack which includes Hound. That means that the other figures in the pack, like Sunstreaker and Wheeljack, would also be in toon colours. Let us know if this news helps lessen the blow of buying the 5 pack for Hound.

Upcoming Transformers Collaborative Projects Found with One Possibly Hinting at Ninja Turtles

JTPRime17 found some new collaborative project listings. These are the crossovers the Transformers team does like with the films Frankenstein and Top Gun. We got three listings:

TRA GEN COLLAB PROJECT KNIGHT
Product Number: F9653


TRA GEN COLLAB PROJECT RENNAISSANCE
Product Number: F9656


TRA GEN COLLAB PROJECT TAILS
Product Number: G0050

Unlike with codenames in movie lines, the code names for collaborative projects are hints at the projects themselves. KNIGHT could be hinting at K.I.T.T. from Knight Rider, which Hasbro already previously tried doing while Renaissance points towards Ninja Turtles (which have a history of transforming products in their own toylines). Tails doesn't have as direct a hint, it could be anything from Tailspin to Sonic. As we have seen in the past, these collaborative projects could be anything and licenses are acquired purely for the project so another company having toy rights doesn't disqualify a project from happening necessarily. Nothing is confirmed beyond the code names and the fact that these toys are in the works, everything beyond that is speculation on our behalf.

Let us know what you think these may be.

Some 2024 Transformers Toys May be Cancelled or Pushed Back

While we want to give you as much info as possible, it is always important to note that, as we have seen with many toys now, anything can happen until Hasbro officially reveals an upcoming product. And that includes cancellation. We had previously published lists of upcoming toys based on listings provided by JTPrime17. This Seibertron member has access to case assortment solicitation from Hasbro to retailers which is how they let us know of new listings.
However, some listings are now no longer present on these solicitations from Hasbro. Those include SS Drift from TLK, SS Lifeline from the upcoming video game, Legacy core BW Dinobot and Legacy Sureshot.

Now these being removed from solicitations does not mean that are definitely cancelled (and it could also just be a mistake). As we saw with Buzzworthy Hound, while that release was cancelled, the toy will still be released in another way. However, there are previous listings that were no longer available and did not come out in their listed lines like T30 Brawn, T30 Sharkticon, Titan Master Optimus Prime, Titan Master Toraizer and SS Breakaway.

Here is the quote from JTPrime17:

Interesting note, updated case assortment Solicitations from hasbro to retailers have some changes. The changes actually remove some figures from the line up. Not sure if this is a mistake or if these figures were delayed or cancelled.

But these are the following figures that have seemingly disappeared.

F8762 Tra Gen studio series dlx TF5 Drift
F8761 Tra Gen Studio series dlx RISE Lifeline
F8519 Tra Gen Legacy UNI Core BW Dinobot
F8531 Tra Gen Legacy UNI Dlx G1 Sureshot

Ever since the Bumblebee movie, Hasbro decided to have the main movie toylines target children, which remains their primary audience in general for the Transformers brand. It did mean that the toyline was gimmick heavy. That theme transferred over to the two animated toylines since and the Rise of the Beasts toyline (though there were deluxes and voyagers scattered there at times). With Transformers One being an animated film for kids, it should come as no surprise that Hasbro is continuing this 5 year trend. We now know some of the toy classes coming out for the Transformers One toyline.
Those include:

Prime Changers, Mega Changers, 2 in 1 Masks (making a return from ROTB), Cybertron Launchers, Power Flip, Race Changers, Race and Blast, Racing Bot Shots (intriguing), COG 1 Step, Battling Figures, Power Glow, Energon Reveal and others.

The full list of listings we have at the moment can be found below and all are coded. Also please note: in movie toylines, the codes are not hints, they mean nothing. They are deliberately random to keep discretion within the movie project. The listings came from JTPRime17.

Thanks to Sowndwave76 and jtprime17, we have our first look at the upcoming Deluxe Class Gears. This highly anticipated rendition of the resident Autobot pessimist is looking every inch to be cartoon faithful, while still adhering to the Deluxe class size of most recent minibots. For his first mainline figure since 2014, and only third in the last forty years, Gears looks to be a great addition to the line. Check out the pictures below, and let us know if you'll be adding him to your collection when he's officially released.
