I... uh... I don't see any images.

EDIT: Now I see them.

Man, they just had to go and make Maccadam a build-a-figure. Who's next, Rack'n'Ruin?

Crud, I probably just jinxed it, didn't I?

Still better than not having a figure.

Also, can Bumblebee's stinger weapon be removed from his right hand? Or will it be like every other Bumblebee figure from Cyberverse? (Save armor up)

So, you're willing to pay $160 for a non-transforming Deluxe?

Really, really glad I held off on Spark Armor Optimus and Bumblebee now. Though I just bought Spark Armor Shockwave last night... Hoping this means a better Starscream, they can’t seem to do him justice this line for whatever reason.

He's paying 160$ for 8 deluxes and an extra non transforming figure.

Have the names of the other been revealed yet?

Getting multiple Shockwaves from this line is an okay thing since he has a bunch of drones based on his altmode in the show.

This is a pretty good idea, I like the build-a-figure concept and the individual figures don't look too bad. I hope there's a Cheetor, Sky-Byte and Shadowstriker based on her mash-up-of-different-parts design.

Whoa, that Bumblebee actually looks really good! It's cool that Cyberverse is getting some less-gimmicky stuff.

I mean, fair point but I’m trying to dial back the army building. Since coming back from deployment in Korea, my barracks room has barely enough space for 90% of my collection, and I’m running out of room and money.

I definitely want all of these. They look great and it's nice to see effect parts appear in Cyberverse as well. Maccadam is just a great bonus and I hope thy do make Rack'n'Ruin next since it's doubtful they'll give him an alt mode on the show.

Now this, right here? This I can get behind. :-o

Wonder if they'll do a deluxe/warrior Cheetor at some point. Might save me the money of buying Spark Armor Cheets.

I think build a figures should stay in the marvel line.

Agreed

This is awsome news, won't make up for how bad my day is going, but it's at least put a smile on my face.

I have enjoyed season 2 immensely, and every time I watched it there was that little bit of disappointment because of how much I did not like the current crop of figures. I've looked at them, I've wanted to buy them but ... meh.

This though, they're doing their best to appeal to the younger market and older fans, plus an actual Maccadam? Hell yeah!

Now this right here is the cream of the reveals!

4 Good looking figures, and we get a Maccadam!! And they all looks great and posable!

And finally, Bee gets a toy where it's good and there is no fake kibble. Finally that great design gets a proper toy

Yeah, as cool as Maccadam looks, there’s no way I’m spending $140 on figures I don’t want just to get him.

Following up on the images from the floor earlier today, we now have some official images for the newly revealed Transformers Cyberverse figures!

The new Transformers reveals take the Cyberverse toyline in a step towards the mainline quality of figures. The new figures feature more complex transformations and more advanced articulation. They also all include parts for a Transformers build-a-figure and effects parts. The new figures are as follows.

Bumblebee - notable for being a Cyberverse Bumblebee figure that finally utilizes the actual parts from his vehicle mode to form his robot mode, giving us a real roof chest, bumper shoulders, and door wings. He comes with a handgun and his stinger weapon.

Optimus Prime comes with his ion blaster and an opening chest that reveals the matrix. He also includes a blast effect that doubles as a matrix blast from his chest.

Megatron is a more advanced figure that makes a much more convincing tank. He includes his fusion cannon complete with blast effect, and he even has a smirk on his face.

Shockwave once again shows that Cyberverse can produce some pretty dang good Shockwave figures, and he comes with a hand weapon complete with blast effect.

And finally, the build-a-figure for the wave is Maccadam! Maccadam comes in 10 pieces, though if those 10 pieces are divided up solely between the 4 figures listed here is yet unknown. Maccadam is the kindly bartender from Cyberverse who might actually be a member of the 13 and has also shown to be a pretty big help for the present day main cast. Maccadam is non-transformable, but promises to be pretty dang posable with all his pieces.

Check out the images below, and let us know what you think in the comments section below!

You get half a Maccadam, since he is made up of 8 parts, just in case that wasn't clear. The build a figure aspect here doesnt matter much since these are all figures I would buy anyway. What BLOWS about Marvel Legends BAF is that their build a figures have recently been something that should be a mainline figure. Thanos was the BAF of the Infinity Wars line AND of the Endgame line. And those lines consisted of 3rd tier comic characters like Black Night and Hercules that you had to buy. Like **** Off already. But here, its maccaddams, not a mainline bot and not a figure that transforms anyway. And you end up with good figures of popular bots from the show. He really feels like an extra, which is what BAF figures should be.

Also, people can always sell the parts they dont want (either the extra macadams part of the deluxe robots) to recoup whatever cost. We already have an established fan community seling toys, this is just getting added to the mix.

And I agree D-Max, these are the big reveals for me. Knowing that this line is actually giving us toys on the level with the generations line.

And finally, Bee gets a toy where it's good and there is no fake kibble.

His chest is as fake as Pamela Anderson's.

That Bumblebee has pretty much the perfect body for my OC. I know what I'm going to do with him!

News Credits: 1646 · Thu Oct 03, 2019 7:20 pm

i could've swore based on the earlier images that the windshield actually became the chest. Looking back, i guess I was wrong.

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

Oh my stars, these all actually look pretty amazing! Especially liking Megatron, and very excited to add another Shockwave to my army of Cyberverse Shockwave.
