A lot of fans have reached out to us (xMXUx, MemphisR56, Mindmaster) to inform us of the glorious new photo of Combiner Wars Computron that surfaced on Weibo. Here was MemphisR56's summary/reaction to it:

New hands and feet confirmed, new decco for scattorshot confirmed.

Heavy retool on groove into afterburner, lightspeed is the streetwise mold, heavy retool on airraid into strafe, and out little buddy scrounge is in the mix with targetmaster partner too.

Most excitingly: New feet, with rocker ankles, and brand new hands.


How excited ae you by this reveal? What are you going to do with your previously purchased Scattershot? How do you feel about that take on afterburner? Are you still bummed about the reuse of the Superion head? Let us know in the discussion!

Here's hoping Computron is UW-08!

It's amazing how good he looks with those feet and hands. He doesn't even need the PE upgrade set. He looks like a really good transformer.

Best combiner of the series. By a colossal mile.

So the one with the lightbar? Isnt that a little lame?

Thats straight up false, BOTH the combiner head and combiner torso is integrated in Scattershot, which was not the case with the G1 toy.

Who knows, maybe they took the light bar off. It seems they put quite a bit of effort into this set so I think it's in the realm of possibility.

Is it just my browser or is this picture cropped? I cannot see the English Bio, nor can I see the far right of the image. Still this looks amazing. Cant wait to see the whole thing. I'm glad they corrected the head color for Computron. Also...If this does make it as a UW, I wonder if this will be the first UW with a 6th member, or will the just cut Scrounge? I'm thinking they'll probably cut him as he was an obscure character in the US Marvel comic, and not known in Japan, or how odd would it be if they changed him back to Cosmos ;) .

The SW version of the mold has always held together better than my DE, who's legs separate and the combiner peg falls out if you so much as look at it funny. While that might not happen with every DE, I'd rather not take the chance.
And besides, you can't see the lightbar in combined mode, which is the way I'll be displaying him.

Anyway, as for my opinion on Comps himself, he can't come out soon enough. I'm excited to get the Groove mold, and he has two of my favorite limb molds and my favorite torso mold. Plus, new hands and feet so I don't have spend $40 dollars on the PE kit.

No, there were rumours from people who had seen him that he still had the lightbar, I was always thinking it might be a placeholder (as we saw before) but us seeing that they are indeed using this mold cements those rumours into fact. He has a lightbar, its no question of that, we just have to either accept it or not. I am not there yet.

If I remember correctly. no rumor actually predicted what mold Lightspeed used, just that he was from a Stunticon.
Anyway, if they didn't remove the lightbar from Smokescreen, then they probably won't for Lightspeed.

Those are knockoffs. I was referring to Computron's designated kit.

Ah I didn't know that, no matter like N said he's going to be in combined mode most of the time and even when he's not he'll be in robot mode so I'll never see the bar.

Computron is looking really fine though the loss of the hand foot guns is a little annoying as they looked like they packed plenty of fire power but the ankle pivots are a nice touch. Can't wait to see the in hand shots and hasbros promo stuff for him. (Other than all these leaks of course; -))

As much as these hands and feet look so much better, I would have preferred consistency... Which is, tragically, why I will still be going after the full P.E. line. Even though Computron doesn't need it.

It's not going to happen but I would love if Hasbro put out packs of these hands and feet in the colors of the other combiners. I don't mind the HFG but I think the designated hands and feet look better.

It may just be semantics but... Anything not licensed by Hasbro or TT are considered "knockoffs" even 3rd party products considered by some to be of superior quality.

Looks amazing, bummer, thought that he comes with streetwise instead of wheeljack - legitimately disappointed by that :(

Love that they included bigrooves dual pistols though, shame too that he can't seem to open his hands #-o

I consider KOs to be any design made by someone that stole it from someone else. So Quantron isn't a KO (at least as far as I know), but my CMP-20 is.

Both the high quality KO and the Perfect Effect kit are taking advantage of a property that is not theirs to make money. Also if the PE kit was designated for Computron then where is his name on the box, huh? ;)

So that means you dont give your combiner knee pads when you use the dead end/streetwise mold as legs? You just let the front fold down?

I'll wait for Takara to make one.

I hope they fix Afterburner, he looks bad to me, with that silly banana windshield. I'd also like some color changes here and there- especially silver hubcaps. :)
