Transformers Prime Deluxe Airachnid, Deadend and Cyberverse Ultra Magnus Revealed

Posted by El Duque Mar 31, 2012 at 2:21pm CDT 59,408 views
Courtesy of TFND.net we have our first looks at Transformers Prime Deluxes Airachnid and Dead End, plus Cyberverse Ultra Magnus. Airachnid is a brand new mold, she is seen in both robot and helicopter modes. Deadend is repaint of RID Wheeljack with a brand new head. Lastly we have Cyberverse Commander Ultra Magnus, another new mold that is somewhat reminiscent of his appearance in Animated and the original RID. Check out the images below.

Thanks to the keen eyes of our Energon Pub members we have a little extra info from these images. The Cyberverse Commander Optimus Prime appears to have an open face place. If you recall back when the "Robots in Disguise" first started to appear in the UK a few of these open face plate variants found their way to retail. There is also a figure listed as Shadow Strike Bumblebee just over Deadend and is only partially visible. At first glance the figure would appear to be Deluxe wave three's Hot Shot, but the face deco doesn't quite match up.

But she has four legs! And they should've made Deadend into Makeshift.

So Hot Shot is called Shadow Strike Bumblebee in Japan?

I hope that's the case and it's not some idiotic black repaint, coming to clog the shelves some more...

F YEAH. I can deal with that right now! He better get a Voyager!


Oh yeah, Airachnid. The weapons are dumb, but she looks surprisingly good otherwise. I hope they can figure out some sort of spider mode for her...

Oh and Dead End looks kind of cool, but I'm gonna pass, I don't need an evil Wheeljack repaint.

It looks like this version of Optimus Prime has the variant head with the mouth instead of the face plate.

Make a Magnus in Voyager size and I'll consider replacing my City Commander with it.

Kind of disappointed with Airachnid though

That is something I was wondering, because if you look, there is a wheel above where it says "Shadow Strike Bumblebee". If black I buy. [Insert my motto here]

I'm definitely getting an Ultra Magnus, as soon as it shows up as a Voyager or whatever. Also getting Dead End. I'm so glad I can get this mould as an evil con, and leave my Generations Wheeljack as is. Also getting Air-rachnid, but I am kinda bummed out about the rotors. I'm sure some 3rd party company will make new rotors for her, though, that give her 4 legs. Stoked. Air-rachnid is definitely on the top of the list.

Airachnid looks about as good as I would expect for that intricate of a design.

These are Japanese names (as Hot Shot is clearly labeled Shadow Strike Bumblebee) so you never know, if he come out in the US he may be Makeshift. I'd hope for better colors though, cause that thing is ugly.

Airachnid looks solid enough. They didn't do so great on the propeller legs though. Wish there were 4 propellers not 3, or that one propeller would have split into 2 smaller legs, while 2 propellers would have opened up into 2 long legs.

Ultra Magnus is purely awesome. I hope they make a voyager version though. Love the visual homage to Animated Ultra Magnus.

If they make a Voyager Magnus, I will buy it without question. Nothin' against Cyberverse, they're awesome in their own right, but i'd rather have Magnus stand tall amongst his fellow 'Bots.

Kinda dissapointed that Airachnid can't have a spider mode (from the look of it), but it's rather show-accurate. Another Buy On Sight.

Chinese, sweetie. These are Hasbro figures for the Asian market outside of Japan. Shadow Strike Bumblebee has me curious though... Hang on a sec.

Oh, my bad. Didn't notice. Still, could just be his name regionally.

OK, the flames match, but I'm still not convinced, as I've spotted another set of wheels just above the name, indicating a new figure.

That's a daring admission, lol. It'll be awesome to have this Magnus as a voyager, but I don't think I could replace City Commander with him. An original mold, eh? Should we be expecting him to appear in the animation?

Airachnid doesn't look too bad either. I can understand if she won't have the full eight-legged spider mode as each leg would probably be quite flimsy.

I'll pass on Deadend.

No love for Dead-end eh? I think he looks sweet, killer headsculpt, and a toxic paintjob. :CON:
