If that's the Hyperchange, I could really care less.

If that's the Warrior class...at least there's one toy in this line that isn't looking dull. Still holding my tongue for the under-detailed inaccurate final product, though.

Thanks to an anonymous source, we have in-package images of Robots in Disguise (2015) Warrior Class Optimus Prime and Drift! Though the images are small due to being overtaken by images of the figures themselves, we get a decent look at the package art for the pair. Check out the images below!

Not when the actual TFA season 4 Prime would have been so much cooler:

The Warrior figure pales in comparison.

Eh, close enough!

Look like I was right to call him "Grown up TFA OP."
Not for me.

oh man. so cool. Yeah nothing now does that justice. I think Takara's Hunter Prime looks like it was inspired by that but...man. this toy would have been awesome.

this would be a awesome figure for the 2015 generations line

Animated PowerMaster Optimus Prime with Micron (insert Armada Micron name here ) comes with 4 Missiles, Matrix Of Leadership, Magnus Hammer and a exchangeable Generation one Optimus Prime Head for that extra bit of G1 Powermaster Prime Nostalgia

Why is it that, all of a sudden, I actually want these figures (specifically the 'bots) even though they're out of scale, under detailed, and/or terribly sculpted? :BOOM:

I'm having an identity crisis.

It's ok to have fun with toys

This line makes me sad.

That Warrior Class Optimus look just amazing! One thing I'm looking forward to is how much it will scale with Cyberverse figures, based on the vehicle mode. It is a truck & trailer combo after all.

No matter what, it will be one more Optimus deluxe to add to my collection. Now, if only my local stores would bother to be up to date...

Eeeech.... they're still doing those shampoo bottle figures? The same kind that, from other lines, I see warming shelves every day? I guess SOMEONE must be buying them or they wouldn't keep making them...

by **Optimum Supreme** » Sat Jan 17, 2015 3:32 pm

Gotta have something to fill the shelves when they don't get enough real figures thanks to bad distribution.

...What was Wave 1 supposed to be? :???:

News Credits: 7 · by **Zeedust** » Sat Jan 17, 2015 8:29 pm

Um, quick question, I got a 3-step Bumblebee for my birthday (It was what I didn't have, and I'm not ready to go into Combiner Wars yet.) I think it might be broken, though, the head doesn't come up all the way and he looks like he's staring at his chest (or hanging his head in shame). Is this a common problem, or should I exchange mine?

by **Rated X** » Sat Jan 17, 2015 10:54 pm

They would make good bowling pins...

A big, non-transforming, simplistic, shoulder-articulated Bumblebee? Yes, please!

That is Wave 1. I think they got confused with the larger Titan Guardians, which has Steeljaw, Optimus Prime and Bumblebee. Either that, or they consider the AoE ones Wave 1 (which still had 2 Waves).

Here is the big reveal of the 2015 UK Toy Fair that took place:

One Step Optimus

This isn’t just a one-step changer, it’s a huge one-step changer. Standing at over 11 inches tall, this Optimus Prime figure converts from robot to truck mode and back again, in one motion. The transformation is simple; just pull the trailer apart to go from vehicle to robot, then push the chest and swing the cab down to convert back.

As Sabrblade pointed out, this seems to be the figure from this listing:

TRANSFORMERS RID NERF MEGA 1-STEP OPTIMUS PRIME

But my big question is, is this just a biger version of the Hyperchange version? Because the mold looks the same, especially the truck mode.

Nope. If you at them side by side, you'll notice that the shoulders and wheels are different, the cab is more streamlines and the back of the trailer is different.

Ok, looking at them side by side, and while the cab is different, the back is the very same. It looks like the same mold but retooled and redeco'd.

Nah, I'd say it's an all-new toy, but taking design cues from the Three-Step.

Has anyone else realized that the new Decepticon Thunderhoof is named after Chief Thunderhooves from MLP?

Based on a real name? Easy pun? Corpyright shortcut?
Anyway, why not? Dare I say, why not.

I'm going for easy pun, since Thunderhoof is a deer, not a pony. >:oP

Actually, Chief Thunderhooves is a buffalo, setting the two even further out of sync.
