Methinks Nitro will lose his head in the new movie...

[Deadput]

Ugh the box art has Nitro use the Ksi Boss body and head but not his own.

[Kurona]

Since we've finally got decent pictures, I figured an updated comparison was needed.

Cool he does match up quite a bit with the cgi model although kinda strange Nitro has a more unique toy head compared to the straight up Shockwave head he has in the movie.

I did not use the first picture for comparison it was just the first picture I could find on google images of just Nitro.

[DedicatedGhostArt]

I don't get the mix of heads. My guess is that since the CGI design has Shockwave's head and the KSI drone has a different head, that they decided to design the toy as kinda a mix. Who knows though. His head might transform to look like that for all we know. Some kinda battle mode.

Or maybe that's the final head and the one we see in trailers is just an early placeholder or the original.

I think that one is unlikely but it's just another theory/guess.

Spent yesterday fangirling over these new reveals. Nitro and Cogman are definite must buys for me, especially since i love the Titan Master gimmick.

Thanks to podcast superstar, Razorclaw, we now know of some beautiful new packaging found on the Snakas Blog. These are all the upcoming Legion Walmart exclusives from Transformers: The Last Knight. You can see the Autobots Unite logo on the boxes. One super cool news though is that the blog post says the Voyager Optimus toy is a "targeted exclusive", which tells me we finally know which toy will be exclusive to Target. There are three Legion Class 2 packs: Bumblebee & Hot Rod (in a different deco to the individual legion), Optimus Prime & Ravenspar, Megatron & Berserker.

Can someone point me to why Nitro apparently makes a decent Thunderwing? I'm really not seeing it...

I just figured it was simply because Nitro is currently the only Titan Master-compatible figure who is predominately light gray, has a robot mode design that doesn't resemble any of the more recognizable non-Thunderwing characters, and turns into a similarly-colored jet-like aircraft.

Funny to see these Prime legions trying to pass as Movie toys!
Why not repaint some of the excellent DOTM Cyberverses I wonder?

Anyway, that Legion Hot-Rod is a must have for me.

Right? Honestly his color scheme and weird face make me really excited for the legion and even the deluxe.

[Ultra Markus]

i want to see cogman rip off other transformers heads

[Sigma Magnus]

Well, revising my want list: Voyager Prime & Megs, Cogman, Nitro, new Bee, maybe Crosshairs.

[Kurona]

My want list whittled down to Nitro (perhaps multiple) and Cogman. Megs' robot mode just looks pretty eh to me, Scorn's beast arm kibble on his shoulder means I can't justify him over the Deluxe and Steelbane is turning out to be a disappointment in terms of QC. But this Titan Master interaction is just awesome and Nitro's design is pretty incredible

[ebo716]

My want list is scorn, cogman, nitro, the new bumblebee, dragonstorm ( due to the fact that he looks cool and is a reverse duocon) and maybe megatron

Agreed. Not only that, but if they had to make up a jet mode for his toy, he probably doesn't transform in the movie.

Found on facebook, here's an in-hand image of leader class megs. While he has backpack, it is not that bad in my opinion.

[Stuartmaximus]

Sooo....we're getting a redecoed Primus as Planet Cybertron then ok....but....wasn't there two different sizes of Planet Cybertron coming out....Primus & a Deluxe Class size! so i'm wondering what this deluxe class size is going to look like coz i can't think of any deluxe class size figure that they could redeco that from(YES....the staff or someone on here'll prob point out that it doesn't HAVE to be redecoed from an already existing deluxe class sized fig & prob be a new fig altogether)

btw is that the actual jet mode of the toy of Nitro

coz if it were....then that's pretty cool but i'd rather have Nitro as Leader Class or even wait til Wei Jiang does him(+ Megs)

[BattleConvoy]

70 USD?!!! What a ripoff but I will still get it for the toy. UGGH THERE GOES 70 DOLLARS DOWN THE DRAIN

Don't bother, it will probably suck.

I'm boycotting Transformers until the prices go down.
Anyone care to join me?

I didn't realise the Voyager and Leader versions were so different in transformation.

This is the back of my voyager Megs

No wings. Because they're wrapped around the lower legs so well you barely notice them at all. The nose cone of the jet is folded back at the top with the arm cannon being completely seperate from it and integrated into the back of the jet in alt mode. Also flight stand port!


Can store weapon when not in use.


Front view cos he's so nice.


Side view showing the backpack here barely sticks out either and he's overall a really tidy figure especially for a jet-former which are commonly very kibbly usually due to wings.

[Va'al]

We've seen some images of Transformers: The Last Knight Leader Megatron already (here, for example), but we're getting an even better look at the figure courtesy of Weibo user iron涛-savior! Check the images out below.

Question ... and I really would appreciate simple straight up answers.

In regards to Optimus Prime, what versions are actually new molds in the TLK line?

Wave 1 Voyager.

[Kotori_Sonoda]

Oh yeah, I have to ask;

When I bought my TLK Optimus Prime voyager, one of the leg joints was stuck. It wouldn't go sideways. I contemplated returning it before I got my hobby nippers and used it to poke around the joint, finally making it move again.
Anyone else got a similar case or I just had a isolated one?


Also, are they trying to pass off the red bits in Ravenspar as the eyes?
