Condescending in the first part but honest in the last. I am news staff, if you guys judge this to be actual news, I will news it. But before I must know what you guys find new about this because I don't see anything I didnt see back at Botcon.


Ah gotcha in all honesty I'd be fine with this recolored torso if it wasn't a solid color and if the head was even the slightest bit remolded. But if all this beta test stuff is true then we should be getting a better scattershot down the road. I just wonder why they wouldn't do it right once and be done with it.

You have summed up exactly what the main issue here is. I am just as confused as you and it is very frustrating. If this isn't really scattershot, what is the point?

This should seriously be a question to Hasbro at the New York comic con, if they don't clear anything up on their own.

Here's a thought, what if this is Betatron? What I mean is what we saw at SDCC and these prototypes is it. When the figure is released at retail it'll be a fully retooled mold with a new head for the Technobots. Betatron is just a name for the prototype.

Hmm I like the way you think. I'm not sure how likely it is but it could certainly be a possibility.

I love Hot Spot, just hate how he doesn't lock in especially his right leg in torso mode. What are you doing differently? The left leg pegs in fine - where the black tab on the thigh slots into the light blue slot on the calf.

I'd settle for the head being recolored. They seem to have gone out of their way to make it identical to Superion.

I know I'm a little late, but I like the protectobots. But if you get them, do yourself a favor and GET ROOK, he's great and people seem to be skipping him left and right because he's a new guy.

I know it's wrong, but I just want something other than the griffin. Even if I have to grasp at straws. I don't care if it actually looks any more like Underbite than the most of the figures from Machine Wars resemble the traditional portrayal of their characters.

I just feel like getting a toy of the griffon will be he point at which it's official that nothing outside of the G1 cartoon is allowed to matter (other than the Bay movies, and those only while their release is still relatively recent) and those of us who prefer Beast Wars or whatever should pack up and go home.

I feel for you regarding Beast Wars, except we just got some for Thrilling 30.

I'd say it could be fiction related - i.e. to the comics, or the show that this is based on coming out, but that's a little too gimmicky. It could be that this is a temporary name, or it could be to see if we really want technobot limbs, or, I dunno;

This definitely needs to be asked at the upcoming toy fair, along with what they plan the boxsets to be (mass retail, or christmas/store exclusive)

All they'd really need to do at this point, it remold the combiner chestplate, the sternum of the jet, and the front half of the combiner head, so it doesn't look like a superion clone.
I am not a G1 fan, please treat my opinions as such.

The legs are iffy on mine for torso mode too. It seems like the plastic is a little warped.

Yeah, but it's been nothing but variations of G1 for the last half decade or so; it kinda wears thin after a while >:oP

More Image Leaks Of Combiner Wars Bruticus And Betatron

Postby Autobot032 » Tue Sep 08, 2015 9:43 pm

Weapon: Switch Blade Tail
Earlier today, we reported on a set of images taken of a leaked test shot of the upcoming Scattershot remold of the Combiner Wars Voyager Class Silverbolt mold and we have an update to share with you, courtesy of fellow fan and collector Daim Choc, who obtained these images through ACToys.

Not only do we get to see more of Scattershot (this time in Betatron torso mode) but we also get to see more detail on the Onslaught remold of Hot Spot, more specifically the Bruticus torso mode. (To see the rest of Onslaught and a sneak peek of Brawl, click here to read our previous news report on that leak.)

Before you check out the images below, see the original molds in our galleries so you can see the rather drastic remolding changes for yourself! Well, drastic changes for Onslaught, sadly not so much for Scattershot who remains rather disappointing considering he's more or less a straight up repaint of Superion in combined form, not to mention none of his fellow Technobots have seen the light of day yet, nor has a rumor of their existence. All of which makes this news staffer have this reaction: :(

Combiner Wars Voyager Class Silverbolt (And Superion)
Combiner Wars Voyager Class Hot Spot (And Defensor)

Without further ado, the newly leaked images:

Don't I know it... Not that I'm complaining, I grew up on G1. But I don't need the CW version of the Ark characters.

I do want Fire Convoy, aka RID Optimus Prime. I'd also be interested in RID related limb retools that allow him to form Omega Prime. But even without them just having RID Optimus/Omega Prime would be very cool.

I grabbed Armada Starscream, and wish the other primary seekers were released in that mold. Too bad Skywarp is an exclusive. I would pick up the power up version as Thundercracker if Hasbro releases that here. I don't have TC in my collection (no Skywarp, either). I wish the Leader Jetfire mold was downsized to Voyager for the Seekers. Then I'd have gone in for all three.

While it doesn't interest me we did get Armada Megatron, and he's more than available around the world, if that counts for something.

Back in TF Prime we got Hot Shot. I picked him up instead of BB and I really like the toy.

Hasbro needs to bring over Takara Blackarachania. If they don't it's a crime.

Truth is, there are some BW figures that have molds that hold up to modern standards (in part because standards have dropped a bit), but Cheator needs a better mold already. That head should not stick out that far from his chest. And Tigatron is obvious.

I'd love to see a number of Japanese TF figures brought into the 21st century, but kids know nothing about them because the cartoons were never brought over proper. I'm talking dubbing them and showing them on TV, not releasing subs for collectors (though I'm glad they finally did that for Headmasters).

I think Generations has attached itself too tightly to IDW right now, and that has become a problem for non G1 characters. Generations is supposed to be inclusive of all generations of Transformers and Hasbro has clearly forgotten that statement they made way back when they marketed the line. :BANG_HEAD:

Which is why I had mentioned that I would really just like a Universe 2.0. With old figs from everything: G1 Liokaiser, leo convoy, bw neo/II, arm/ener/cyb, rid car brothers/ o/p/ magnus (where's a new x-brawn when you need one, I liked his character), all the good stuff. It's kinda why I like TT tav right now, they're mixing a bunch of stuff they never (I think) got into one line, and then giving them snazzy new paint schemes.

Yeah, at least if they were toy accurate (had a mouth) it wouldn't be so bad, but they went and gave superion a mouthplate, and now computron looks very superion-ish :BANG_HEAD:

Aren't we all?

We really are. I like Superion having a face mask, but i would like Computron to have a mouth. would really help distinguish the 2 :BOT:


Eh; if it had come down to it, I'd rather have that hatchet/skylynx combiner instead >:oP


Would still prefer a :CON: combiner instead.

You did it for Bruticus so why not Scattershot?


It is a very good question. Makes me think that they really have no plans for Technobot limbs and that he'll just be another Cyclonus. A torso with no "official" limbs.

IF it is true, it would seem to be a rather giant middle finger to all the G1'ers here :BOOM:

Speaking of G1, even though I was born in 88, I find that G1 scattershot alt mode really cool looking. I much preffer that bulky cannon/cockpit that makes up the ship rather than just have a long narrow cockpit which seems very much apart from the rest of the ship.

Yeah, I've messed with it, it is pretty cool, it had a sorta w.m.d. feel about it, or something that would be in star wars (a cockpit on a giant cannon)

And, ya know? I was thinking that the silverbolt legs actually help enhance his resemblance to his G1 incarnation, that breeze block undercarriage is finally pulling it's own weight.

And with how different Sky Lynx is from Underbite, Underbite would be best getting his own mold for such an endeavor.

I know it's wrong, but I just want something other than the griffin. Even if I have to grasp at straws. I don't care if it actually looks any more like Underbite than the most of the figures from Machine Wars resemble the traditional portrayal of their characters.

I just feel like getting a toy of the griffon will be he point at which it's official that nothing outside of the G1 cartoon is allowed to matter (other than the Bay movies, and those only while their release is still relatively recent) and those of us who prefer Beast Wars or whatever should pack up and go home.


I guess you missed the Hatchet discussion. :???:



Edit: Oh, wait, never mind. You want something outside the film, too...

I feel for you regarding Beast Wars, except we just got some for Thrilling 30.



Not thrilled with Hatchet, but could live with it.

And yeah, we got all of three Beast Wars figures in a 30th anniversary celebrating the history of the franchise with almost entirely G1 guys. Four if you count the legends Starscream/Waspinator set. Which is admittedly better acknowledgement than anything after Armada got.

Yeah, but it's been nothing but variations of G1 for the last half decade or so; it kinda wears thin after a while >:oP


And on and off before that, going back all the way to Alternators, and even a few popping up prior to that in Armada.
