Amazon Exclusives

Deadeye Dual 2-pack including deluxes Kaskade and Javelin from IDW series
Voyager Nacelle based on the Siege seeker mold

Pulse Exclusives

Pulsecon PowerLinx Hot Shot w/ MiniCon Jolt
Menasor Combiner Gift Pack
Shattered glass 2-pack of Sideswipe and voyager Rodimus (Hot Rod mold)

Gwtting everything from the Studio Series line (except for the Decepticons because they barely changed), Nacelle, and maybe Sideswipe vs Rodimus.

It's cool to be getting the two Shattered Glass figures I wanted the most at the same time and Sideswipe has got his minicon which is great. Nightbird is one I wanted to see and she's looking great and I wonder where Noah's jet mode came from, but I really like it.

They really need to chill with the epic reveals! I literally have no more money for figures right now.

That being said, this reveal is fantastic. I will be getting that red Hot Shot asap, my nostalgia levels are off the charts (surprised at no Armada Galvatron tho). Nova is fantastic and clearly a Magnus retool, maybe Galaxy Prime? Nightbird, Magnus, and Ratchet look amazing, another good step for SS.

While I love the IDW duo, I hope they dive into IDW05 next. I’m still holding out hope for a bigger Rung.

I'm pretty sure Galvatron is in a leak lists for next year and considering that Megatron just came out it is to early to be revealing a repaint.

I never got the 2007 Decepticons in the Studio Series, so this sounds like a great deal

I wonder if Ultra Magnus is going to be in scale?

Now that Shattered Glass Sideswipe, is interesting because now that Armada Wheeljack can't be far behind.

Day 1297 of waiting for Transformers Armada Masterpiece news.

That Commander Class Ultra Magnus looks incredibly good.
I knew the limbs would be removable, allowing people to have him terminated…
I believe he’ll be in scale with the others in SS86. Looks like he may be a bit on the tall side (maybe not), but I’ll happily take that over him being too short.

Imo Frenzy looks better than Rumble.
And I’m also very happy with Ratchet. I have a space on a shelf all ready for him.

Overall, pretty great reveals all-around.

Well they said he's a little bit bigger then Grimlock which would mean he's out of scale because he was just a head taller then Rodimus in the show, but he looks worth it just to have that great version of his alt-mode.

These look pretty cool, I'm most hyped for the SG set.
I think the core class Noah figure looks cute too, will likely pick that up!

Also forgot to mention the Minicons! I'm so glad we're getting them.

I wonder how the core bot for Nova Prime will look, definitely interested in that one

The amount of cars that Magnus can carry will be the deciding factor for me, I already have siege with the dna kit and I'm not that attached to the character

I really want that Side-jack / Wheel-swipe?, don't care for black Roddy though. Wonder if they'll repaint him into Armada colors and release him at retail.

I was wondering the same!

Magnus looks great, but only if it gets released at Jetifre pricing £45. Shame missile launchers cant be attached both ways like the toy/toon.

Diaz exosuit is a huh? I was trying to figure out what minicon it was menat to be before reading naming.

Novacane easy pass

Nightbird looks good, not often that can be said about a car.

Decepticon four pack, nice if it goes cheap for those that want it but then again I only like blackout from it

Ratchet looks okay and isnt a walgreens exclusive so bonus points even with out red cross.

shatterd glass pack I wouldnt want the Rodimus (and not sure if it comes with all of its 'voyager' accessories to truly be a voyager in the set)

Javelin looks good, kascade doesnt other than the nice colors. IDW so not a big loss in not picking it up.

Nova who prime is kinda dull, almost like the white version of combiner wars prime but with out toyhax labels to make it someone else. Also I never liked that magnus mold or any use of it.

Nacelle would be a buy but Im questioning if I need another tetra jet or to offload the near dozen I have.

Menasor gift pack, still not keen on over half the bots in the set, but it's easier to forget that when getting them all in one box. Probably going to wait out and see if I ever find a loose motormaster. Thye could have thrown a black jack/chest car into the set or something.

Nothing I'm compelled to get. I'm disappointed Core Dinoking wasn't revealed, and that Menasor set is a big middle finger to every fan who obtained the Legacy Stunticons separately and would have prefered a giftset at the time.

Huge fan of the SS86 and Amazon comics capsules reveals. I think I was the only person who liked the PotP Moonraker / Siege Chromia design, so I'm even happy with Kaskade.

Okay. We did it. We finally have the best non Masterpiece G1 Ultra am angus we can hope for. Can we PLEASE retire the dumb portable stage/NOT an Auto Carrier trailer now? I know I am alone but I hate that thing. I want a real auto carrier now. I want Car Robots with actual feet to stand on. Siege was close I guessWhy is Hasbro so adverse to repainting the OTHER Seeker Molds? Nacelle is a must have for me regardless, but we have more redecos of Ramjet than we have seekers now. Why no Thrust redeco?

When I saw Exo Suit Noah I said “I don’t need that” but that is a cool little dude. I think I could go for one or a couple of flying NEST soldiers

The Kaskadetwo pack, Nova, the Minicons, more Shattered Glass even though I wanted to be done, all look good.

I'm guessing so it matches with his appearance in the recent IDW comics, considering how they're displaying him with the Kaskade/Javelin pack and Nova Prime.

Okay, I guess that would make sense

Exactly this, it's part of the Amazon comics capsule, which now includes figures from the last IDW continuity. I don't know if they wanted to do another Siege tetrajet and decided on this home for it or if it was the other way around, but that's the idea here.

I'm guessing since it was Nacelle's only other prominent appearance, and his most recent one, I feel like it's probably the other way around. Maaaaybe since more fans would be more familiar with the comic's tetrajet look.

Ah, dangit--I was hoping they'd have Studio Series Swoop ready to display. Ah well, I know he's coming eventually.

I keep looking at Magnus and I’m still not sure what I think of him.

Yeah, I was hoping for a Thrust redeco too....
Not only because, well, like you said Nacelle owes his existence to Thrust in the first place, but also because the Thrust version hasn't been reused so far either....

And Thrust is coolest Seeker alt. #JumpJetRepresent

Although actually, in my personal narrative he does fit better with what Ihave the On Cybertron cons doing
