Hey look, it's Generation 2 Cybertron!

[william-james88]

Uuummmm...... WHAT????
A redeco of Cybertron Primus?

Yup, for $150

They can keep it.

someone add up all the repaints now

I dont feel these count. Its store exclusives which are always repaints (or at least mostly). Thats like when people complain about the combiner wars repaints and show the Club toys as examples. Of course, the club toys are repaints, they are always repaints. I feel it should be left as seperate.

Anyways, my big takeaway here is that they still didnt show us the deluxe megatron and skullitron. Dont know why, all the rest are revealed.

Am I the only one that saw the Primus thing coming?

Also, Stormreign looks like this guy:

[bacem]

couldn't careless for the rest but, dragonstorm!!!! nitro!!!! finally, clear pictures!!! they look awesomee!!!!

so, dragonstorm is a combiner, and the description do mention that each of the robot has their own single dragon mode, aside from the combined three headed dragon. i wonder if we will get pictures of those dragons.

and nitro, he looks plain aweosme, at least to me. 35 steps, he is probably the most involved voyager on this line currently. from the pic i seen, it seems he will handle the transformation in a more interesting manner rather than usual jetformers, like terradive from hftd line back then.

both of these definitely get me interested the most.

Dragonstorm's names are godawful. The toy itself looks totally awesome. The sorta "reverse Duocon" concept is great, and by the sounds of things they each have their own beast modes too. I'm really digging the whole Knights of Cybertron thing actually, and it's a shame Steelbane is such a QC washout (though admittedly, superglue or floorpolish could fix that).

Nitro looks great- the jet mode is a bit wonky but totally passable, and the robot mode kicks butt. Kinda reminds me of a Movieverse version of Prime Dreadwing/Skyquake.

...And holy crap, a reissue of Cybertron Primus? Was not expecting that.

[Sabrblade]

Am I the only one that saw the Primus thing coming?

Notice in the description that they distinctly don't call it "Primus", only "Cybertron" and "Cybertron Planet". Could mean something.

By that, I meant that I sort of expected the playset to be a redeco of Cybertron Primus.

Ah.

Though, now I kinda think Hasbro was being a bit misleading in their previously calling this a "playset".

That much is true.


Also, looking at the two components of Dragonstorm, it seems that Stormreign will turn into a two headed dragon that will form the bulk of Dragonstorm, while Dragonicus ( ) will form a one-headed dragon and the top part of Dragonstorm.

I remember early on, the most prevalent theories was either a playset or a reissue of primus.

Now cogman is even more confusing

[Kurona]

Can I be disappointed if I didn't expect much to begin with? Hot Rod's kinda the epitome of that for me. Though man, maybe it's just the angle, but those tiny legs are hilarious compared to his torso.

Cogman seems soooo much cooler. A bit of a shame he's got car panels hanging off his arms but otherwise the worst I can say is that he's a bit standard; but the body is decent, he has a sweet alt mode and colour scheme and he has a sword. If he goes on sale I'd happily pick him up.

[Sabrblade]

Does anyone else feel like Cogman's robot mode looks a little familiar?

Thats because they are using a crappy mold to base this one on. As predicted, its a retool of Lockdown


Transformers Age of Extinction: Generations Lockdown Gallery

They didnt even bother to retool his feet.

[Autobot N]

Does anyone else feel like Cogman's robot mode looks a little familiar?

This guy, I think.

[Evil Eye]

Looking at Cogman's neck connection, I have a feeling he might be TR compatible. If so, AWESOME.

[zodconvoy]

Finally! Now paint him red and put flames on his chest and I'll buy him.

Nah, not that mold. The shoulders are what struck me as familiar, which don't look like that on the Bee mold.

[Autobot N]

I dunno, the arms and the lower legs look kinda similar to me.

Although, while I hope he's a new mold, I won't be mad if he isn't, since he looks amazing and I can die happy now.

[Big Grim]

Kinda like Hot Rod and I adore that Megatron redeco!

[william-james88]

Although, while I hope he's a new mold, I won't be mad if he isn't, since he looks amazing and I can die happy now.

I cant, I am far too confused to die. Ok so we know he is a hedmaster, hence why he is human sized. But then he can take over a bots body and become that bot. Thats also fine. But then that means that the head he turns into is the same head as his robot mode head? And why is his body the same design as his body in tiny robot mode? So... con...fu...sing.

I am also confused by what is mainline and what isnt. Man I wish we had checklists.
