Almost looks like it wants to be a Zord.

After seeing the game trailer I am pretty sure that this is LB.
It would be nice to see a better pix of it too.

He`s kinda meh for a deluxe, but if they make a legends version, i´ll get it so my Soundwave can have another minion. :grin:

I realize this may be mistransformed but so far it's looking bad. I agree that for scaling purposes I'll pick up a legends class version if they make it.

its vehicle mode looks like the dragon hawk from gi-joe sigma six

if you pictures its wings inside of the fans, and its feet somehow molded into a track

Doesn't look quite as menacing as the video game depiction as well as what we saw in the Super Bowl trailer.

How many times do I have to say this? Takara and Hasbro have equal hands in the creation of these toys. I get really tired of those people that knock Hasbro everytime a piece of garbage comes out. As far as this toy is concerned, it looks ok from the neck down. I likely will not buy it unless there is an awesome alt mode. I did not buy a Ravage because the alt mode sucks even though I do have the mail in version still sealed in the mailing box.

Good call. In the new picture it almost looks like there's a cockpit detail. Who knows though. I still remember when pics came out of Ravage's chicken alt-mode and that was way off :lol:

I know that they both look like bald eagles but still.

I can't believe I actually mixed up vultures with bald eagles. >.>

I don't know what I think of the toy, since it looks mistransformed and the quality isn't too good, but I am glad they put him in the movie. I had been hoping they would so that we'd have both season 1 non-humanoid cassettes.

Not much transformation we see going on here. We have that dragon/long-neck mode, and then the more bird-like mode with that painted face... :S The question might be how badly it's mistransformed, but I agree it's not looking very promising so far....

If that dragon looking thing in the trailer was Lazerbeak, than this looks nothing like him, and so far a bigger price of crap than how the original looked.

by **CybertronHotShot** » Fri Mar 11, 2011 9:25 pm

The painted head appears to be windows on top of it. Maybe he transform into a vehicle or something.

Alright, I think I can live with this. That black thing has what looks like a cockpit, and the wingy thingies appear to be a swivel ducted lift fan, so what we're looking at here is a cross between a Cybertronian Bird, and a take on a futuristic Osprey, not unlike the ones used in Avatar by the military landing parties. The painted eagle head then is nothing more than a Lasewrbeask joke on the shark-mouths. Colors need some work, but then we got a G1 Ravage long before we got the actual Movie Ravage, so there may be hope there. Now, if we can get a picture of the Ebay quality for his "bird mode" so we can figure out how badly mis-transformed he is, we'll be set.

By the way, I LIKED Movie Ravage's figure, but I'm using him based on his Beast Wars incarnation.

After viewing he latest pics of Laserbeak, I have to say I'm warming up to the toy. Looks almost decent in "dragon/vulture" mode, and the red wings can be easily remedied with a coat of silver or dry-brushing.

As for the alt mode, and I'm not even sure if it's a proper alt mode...not so much.

He's so cute and adorable! Who would be afraid of this little- (gets cut off as Laserbeak attacks me) :lol:

ACToys member b-o-t brings us the best images of DOTM Laserbeak to date. Hard to say if the transformations are accurate, but these look reasonable given what we've seen in the movie and game trailers. The images are mirrored below.

I'm pretty sure that wyvern mode is the coolest thing I've ever seen. Bought on sight as far as I'm concerned.

That is a strange beast and strangely enough i find those last couple of pictures have me warming even though i hate the first couple... i dont know i might get it.

Whaddafuuuu... ??? Hell NO!! :SICK:

Looks like I'm gonna save a buttload of money this year.

If they would have just left off the bits for the fake alt mode, this might have been decent. But with the "cockpit" hanging under his chest and the super chunky wings, this just looks to out of proportion and strange. Too bad because I bet LB will be pretty cool... for the 5 seconds or so he's probably going to be in the movie.

News Credits: 3 · by **Giant Purple Griffin** » Mon Mar 14, 2011 11:11 am

I'm actually liking this guy. Even though I doubt he'll have it in the movie, I think his alt-mode is much better than what Ravage turned into. I like different, so it's cool
