Just got back from Toy Fair! Here are detailed descriptions!
Posted: Sat Feb 16, 2008 5:54 pmI'll probebly merge this topic with Ryans when the gallery is up. So consider this the pregallery news!
Here's what we got:
Animated Jazz - Looks like the front of a Porsche with a Speed Racer back, Robot mode is actually G1 Jazz-esque with the doors out to the side, he also look the closes to a regular TF as an animated. He had two nunchucks as weapons.
Animate Roll-Up Prime Supreme Class - Nice looking figure and a decent size. Basically as you push him forward his body rotates transforming more and more after each revolution, then you transform the legs. Has lights and sounds.
Leader Bulkead is a HEADMASTER! Well, sort of. I guess in the cartoon, the headmaster guy puts a helmet on the figure to control them, the Helmet is G1 Skorponoks helmet. When you put this on him his voice changes and his phrases change to villain stuff.
Then they had these quick change Animated figures that were cool, they were bigger than Legends, fully poseable, but little. Really cool!
CLASSICS:
They all rock! Prowl is awesome followed by Sunstreaker. They stated in just worked out that they made Sideswip to be able to have the car hood as his chest. So it is true that Sideswipe will be a backwards Sunstreaker.
Galvatron is awesome! I thought he wa going to be bigger, but he is awesome. The tank mode reminds me of G2 Megs (the blue one) but realistic and the robot mode is perfect.
Cybertron Soundwave as Blaster was awesome, and they had a repaint of Cybertron Quickmix which was, eh. The boxes for the bigger classics are really cool.
They also might repaint some original Classics, BUT NO BOTCON ONES. So you might see Sunstorm (my guess), or some other repaints.
Classics Legends are back as well.
MOVIE NEWS! All the robot designs are done and "figureized" and have been sent to Takara!
Classics
Masterpiece news: It sounded like Hasbro might repaint Starscream again, but they have not heard much on the MP front.
25th Anniversary stuff - They will celebrate it. Later on I asked an unrelated question about future combiners or headmaster in Classics, and they said "Well, we have 25th Anniversary coming up", so maybe we get some cool G1 thing with that!
