And are we sure about Maccadam? He is 10 pieces according to the stock images

Just quoting what Warden said. He could always be wrong. But usually in BAFs, the entire arm comes with a figure. So if the two arm pieces are given at once, then you end up with 8 pieces, as he said.

But why would they break up the torso though? and BAF usually have a head and weapon together

Maybe thats to show the posability options and that thisbis not just a static shampoo bottle figure?

I dobt like the headsculpt ot the painted windows, but I really want that Bee. May be my first Cyververse. Its a good neo Bumblebee that foes what the Generations mustang/thing Bee tried to do vut hasbt resonated with me completely.

I really want a Maccadmam curse them for making him parts to figures O dobt want. Prime and Megatron bith look really good for what they are though, but I have enpugh of those two in the Main line. Shokwabe is tempting.

Windblade could be promising here. Dare I hope for a Slimpstream?

Just to confirm, these are around deluxe/warrior size right? And what's the price range?

Nice to see that primes truck doesn't look like a bus like the ultimate class did

thanks! in that case, i'll be waiting for review first, to see if i should buy it immediately, or wait for a bit of price reduce on retail.

Nice to see a Megatron with a headsculpt that's actually grinning evilly outside of the MP for once, hope we get something like that for whatever our next Generations Megatron will be.

Outside of that, these are all looking pretty nice. Still hoping we get a more Voyager-sized Cyberverse Optimus with this level of articulation/engineering at some point for my roughly-in-scale-with-each-other Optimus collection, but this still looks good. Especially glad we finally get a Cyberverse Bee that's well articulated AND the vehicle mode parts actually appear where they should in the robot mode.

These are looking really good and higher quality than previous releases. It would be great if they used Prime bulkhead or beast hunters bulkhead mold for a maccadam that can transform. They could easily do this I think

I really like the Cyberverse Bumblebee design, and happy to see a good to decent figure on the way. Still, I was hoping for a better Windblade … or even a Blackarachnia. I got teased by the recent Tiny Turbo Changers.

We have a whole gallery of what was on display on the show floor of NYCC 2019 for the Cyberverse line. This might be the biggest reveal of the show since it gave us something fans have asked for a while, Generations style quality figures of these designs.

Below you will find images for the 4 deluxe class bots revealed. These are different from the warrior class figures since they are as articulated and complex as standard deluxe class Transformers figures. They have the same price point as those as well, $19.99. The toys shown were:

Transformers Cyberverse Deluxe Class Optimus Prime With Matrix Mega Shot Attack
Transformers Cyberverse Deluxe Class Megatron With Fusion Mega Shot Attack
Transformers Cyberverse Deluxe Class Shockwave With Shock Blast Attack
Transformers Cyberverse Deluxe Class Bumblebee With Sting Shot attack

Each one comes with a piece to build a non transforming Maccadam figure. Consider it a bonus, especially when Siege deluxes don't come with a build a figure component and cost as much. It is unsure just how many are needed since while John Warden said 8, it seems Maccadam is made up of 10 different parts. These first four will come with a leg, lower arm, torso and pelvis. They are due January 2020. Clicking any image below will bring you to the full gallery. We also have a video of the show floor that you can check out right below the images.

Loving all of these so much. So glad we are finally getting toys of this quality

Now if they could just do the seekers that way :-?

As long as they don't give them all the same wings. Starscream has a unique set of wings (and big shoulders) while the Seekers all get the normal wings.

I want to army build that Shockwave as my Siege Shockwave's personal militia with Nitro Zeus as their leader.

Still not sure if I want them to be drones or be individuals who have transferred their sparks to bodies foraged after Shockwave's image.

Now if they could the seekers like that with knees and all

It's probably safe to say that Starscream and Windblade will be two of the unrevealed four figures in this range, and if I had to hazard a guess I'd say Grimlock and either Shadowstriker or Soundwave for the remaining two. If they do another build-a-figure wave like this one, I hope we get Wheeljack, Hot Rod, Ratchet, Cheetor, Jetfire, Sky-Byte, Lockdown and a Seeker or two, and perhaps Clobber as a build-a-figure?

If Windblade comes with a sword that would be awesome, if the sword could transform into a blaster I'd faint.

Female Lugnut. She, along with Lockdown, are considered by Megatron to be his "most worthless foot soldiers."
