Considering nearly a third of the Beast Hunters line are retools of earlier PRID figures, and we're already seeing redecoes of the new figures in the line, I'd say Hasbro got lazy a while ago.

To be fair, Hasbro has shown us a bunch of new fan favorite molds for Generations... maybe they're investing more effort there, where the figures don't have a TV show to help carry sales.

I've completed most of the mini-games on the new site... except for the code lock. It said the code is somewhere else. A little help?

This SERIES isn't ending ...PRIME is ending. I just hope that it's not BOTCHED like the turn from BEAST WARS -> BEAST MACHINES.

They are going to continue the aligned continuity story, we just don't know how. I really hope they break away from Prime's group, and let us know what is going on with the others. Dinobots, Magnus and the others who REMAINED on Cybertron. I'd love to know what happened to Prowl after he was injured at Tripticon station. There are so many OTHER stories during the aligned continuity. PRIME/BEAST HUNTERS is just one of those.

We just have to wait and see...

He... he left the planet with Prime's crew aboard the Ark and remained a key player in the Autobots' missions on both Velocitron and Junkion. You haven't read Exiles? :???:

Probably involves breaking your spine, yes.


Transformers characters don't have anywhere near enough terrible puns in their names as it is. I'm glad to see someone at Hasbro is remedying this.

So, we've got Waves 3 and 4 revealed... my guess is we get the retools/redecos of Lazerback (again) and Ripclaw to fill out the numbers in Wave 5. Doesn't look like we're getting any deluxe scale Dinobots, I'm sad to say. :-(

Still, plenty of bad guys to work with, which is always a plus in my book. I'll probably get Arcee so I can have all the revealed Autobots, but I'll need to see it in person before I'm absolutely sure. They didn't bother to make her nearly as distinct as the retools of Bumblebee, Wheeljack, and Ratchet.


Unfortunately you are giving Hasbro too much credit on this one. VERTEBREAKER was actually the name of one of the demon characters from Todd McFarlane's Spawn comics. I wonder how HE would feel about Hasbro's use of the name Vertebreak...

Repaint or not, I want as many Predacons as Hasbro is willing to put out, so I'll certainly be picking up Vertebreak.

I know we haven't yet seen her bike mode, but Arcee just doesn't look to have a significant enough of a difference from the RiD version to warrant a purchase in my opinion. But I could be proven wrong.

I don't collect Cyberverse figures, but I will be in the case of the Terrorcons. If they released these figures in the deluxe scale then I'd be set up for a major trouser crisis.

The wallpapers are cool and appreciated. Thanks.

And also kinda Dreadwing. It's not uncommon for the baddies to have one 'noble warrior' type who occasionally flirts with switching sides.

But as far as Dinobot goes, the retooling of Beast Hunters Ratchet has that covered. :SICK:

I dunno, "chivalrous" doesn't seem very Dinobot-like or Dreadwing-like to me.

Dinobot was more into Bushido-type honor than chivalry (that was Silverbolt's schtick).

And Dreadwing was willing to blow up Bulkhead in an underhanded booby trap. His brand of honor was more about loyalty and respect towards his master, as well as self-honesty.

"Chivalrous" wouldn't really fit for either of them, but there are admittedly some elements shared across all brands of honor. ;)
