So why couldn't Megatron be Leader class???

A TFP leader class figure that isn't one of those crappy Weaponizers? And it's a dragon?! SO! MUCH! WANT!

TFormers claims it to be Predaking, but I'd consider that rumor for now until something more official turns up.

Um, o.k.........this better be a prelude to Dinobots or something..........

After getting Dreadwing, Knockout and Airachnid I am pretty underwhelmed with Prime toys. I'm interested but not hopeful. Fingers crossed this resembles something other than a pile of orange and black parts on release.

is there more than just this one figure being presented?

I pray that this is Scourge or Predaking (as the rumors say).

So the Beast Hunters thing was true. I knew it! MUAHHAHAHAAHAHAHA! Excellent!

I'm not sure what to make of it, but what I see looks pretty nifty.

It has visible head syndrome to the worst degree though!!

Thats just to give him a better view of the teabagging.

Better images by our very own Seibertron!

Great! Now you've made me want to see him teabag a fallen autobot, preferably Bumblebee, cuz he just need to die already.

I have a feeling the Beast Hunters toyline might take place similarly to Primus Unleashed from Cybertron.

Howso?

Just an FYI, but Thylacine is attending the NYCC event on behalf of TFWiki.net, and got us that promo video! So he is not making things up or having pants that are on fire.

The latter group was invented in the books and there is "no strong driving force" to really explore them in toyline. Predawn faction will be a big deal with big merch push. Predaking himself pretty much confirmed at multiple sizes / pricepoints.

um, ok? and why could we not get a leader of megatron for almost 2 years? oh yea thats right bumble bee is taking his spot. I'm in to beast hunters as long as i get a damned insecticon toy, oh and i know how unlikely it is but a better arachnid toy.

Because, aside from Beast Hunters being part of the show, both Primus Unleashed and Beast Hunters are subline imprints. They're partially changing the name of the toy line by putting a subtitle in to reflect on one gimmick.

Primus Unleashed isn't the only ones to do this, but it was the only one I could think of off the bat. Especially when TFWiki is down for me. Others include AllSpark Power, N.E.S.T Alliance, HFTD, etc.

That's recycled footage from Darkness Rising.

Every bit of non-dragon footage in that promo was old footage recycled from episode 1 and such.

It's recycled footage from all five Darkness Rising Episodes, not just the first episode.

You posted during my "and such" edit.

we can't even get characters from prime like breakdown, or the jet vehicon or unicron.. so even if there was an insecticon made.. or a new mold smokescreen, there's no guarantee that we'd see them on our shelves. that's what has really killed TF:P for me.. not getting the characters from the show.. yet we've gotten quite a few repaints so far.

hopefully the beast aspect of it will draw my attention. that figure looks awesome... so it's working. but i really hope we get the figures that have already been made.

Oh, wonder if these Predacons will be a small band of bots like the original Predacons (and maybe even a combiner!) or a full army like the BW Preds, and if they'll be largely "real" creatures like both previous Predacon groups or more mythical like those ancient Decepticons in Cybertron were implied to be.


... I wonder if this guy being called Predaking had anything to do with the Kreon Combiner that is obviously meant to be the original Predaking not being called by his proper name?

Here's my two cents:

A - It looks brutal. I'm sure the pictures aren't doing it "justice" but I think it looks pure balls

B - They'll call him Deathsaraus

His name is Predaking.
