I would love that Quintesson, but if it's a damn Walmart exclusive again... >:oP

That Quintesson actually looks cool!

Botshots in the year of our lord 2024? cool!

RiD2015 Overload is doing a fantastic job acting as Megatron.

That Optimus figure also looks cool.

I wish Mirage was not in a 3-pack, I am actually intrigued and entertained by him.

Shame so much of this is Walmart exclusive, I basically didn't see the RotB walmart exclusives.

If we are getting Sentinel Prime in SS, I would wager that the Quint is going to be Leader size based on the size difference in the trailer. That will give Hasbro some space to make it a good, detailed figure, hopefully. And, honestly, I will be okay if the Quints don't transform like they kind of forced the Netflix Trilogy figure to do as long as it is detailed, scaled, and poseable.

I dunno, the product description calls it a "Warrior Class", which have all be Deluxe sized since the class's debut in RID 2015.

That's kinda crazy, I still see all three at my local stores, though the last time I saw Prime (last Sunday) he was missing half his chest.

For this one, yes. But hopefully not for SS. I'd like to be able to replicate the scene with the Quint holding Sentinel.

He was being hypothetical about Studio Series.

Megs is a Bakugan fan? Who new.

The Quintesson looks interesting in its flight mode.

That Ultimate Prime is just bad in vehicle mode, though robot mode is pretty cool.

The ROTB voyagers are Walmart exclusives?

They were here. Those and the beast mode figures were the only ones I saw at walmart.

Never saw all those exclusive repaints, except for battletrap at Ross

Pretty sure those were only available at that type of store, not major retailers. Looking back I'm surprised Amazon didn't get any exclusives.

There is no deluxe class in the upcoming Transformers One movie line. Instead, deluxe class figures will be found in the Studio Series line. However, there is the Prime Changer class which is pretty close to what we'd call a deluxe, though still solely targeting kids like warrior class toys. Hasbro had previously revealed Optimus Prime and Alpha Trion but now we can also see Bumblebee and Sentinel Prime for the first time.

We have these images so far which were found the on the Club Jouet website https://www.clubjouet.com/fiche-produit ... m=465F8611

I like that you can reveal Bumblebee's transformation cog, but I'll wait to see what his Studio Series version will look like and hope that one has is battle mask.

News Credits: 11 · by **Overcracker** » Thu May 30, 2024 2:58 pm

Bumblebee looks surpassingly good. Hopefully the SS version is better than this.

Sentinel Prime is just a tetra jet then. Looks too much like Dirge for my tastes.

Prime still as bad, and Alpha Trion is just meh.

These look nice. I can see the Sentinel Prime SS figure being a BBM Seeker retool.

If not a Siege Seeker retool.

Maybe, but he's got that extra dangling bit that the Siege mold doesn't have.

All 4 look good in my opinion.
Bumblebee looks simpel yet good proportions, solid and the right articulation. The Studio Series deluxe Optimus looks a little better but I'll wait for the reviews. I hate flimsy studio series stuff.

Good line so far has been revealed.

FYI yesterday was the day that Deluxe One Prime was supposed to be in stock and ship from Amazon. The figure is out of stock and the orders are all "We'll let you know." This happens somewhat regularly with Amazon so while I'm disappointed I'm not surprised.

We'll see that a lot with this figure (and G1 Bumblebee) since it's made to be constantly replenished and available throughout the year as an "A Level" figure.

That Bee looks fantastic. Especially because (so far) there's no panels-kibble on the bot mode.

How many people do you think are going to wait for those A level figures to go on sale/clearance?

At least one, me. They'll be stocked at Studio Series prices so anytime there's a Studio Series sale or discount (like there is right now at Walmart and Target) they'll be part of it. If these go as Hasbro plans they wont see actual clearance at all this year.
