Does Paralon have a new head? I know the art doesn't, but the toy does.

Also, totally picking up that Starscream.

It looks like it in the picture.. But with the quality I can't make out any details..
Have to agree with you on Starscream. He looks awesome! :APPLAUSE:

What?!

This is groundbreaking news! I mean, your incessant and psychotic determination to ruin Prime for its fans never could've clued us in that you might not like it that much. Your revelation should make the front page.

*sigh* No love for Nova Storm, Ion Storm, Bitstream, Hotlink, Nacelle, Red Wing, etc.?

To see any of those mentioned to be retail released would be amazing. When I look at the images of the mold, in some aspects, they somewhat remind me of certain artwork when they announced the last two seekers' names last July. However, I wish that the images were clearer in order to see them better to really see what the figure that Hasbro snuck on us.

Well, damn, way to sneak these past us :shock:

That Starscream looks nice, almost like fracture upside down in vehicle mode... (they couldn't have, could they :-?

)

I think I'm gonna have to get Paralon, not sure how much I'll like his take on BW Scorponoks head though, already going to get Scorponok. Not sure if I want to get starscream as I'd rather have Skywarp, or any of the rainmakers or '__storm' seekers, but as I don't know if they'll see a release, I might have to get him and deal with it.

Also, since TT never released 'helmeted' megatronus or any of the other 'clash of the tf's' from last year, I wouldn't necessarily be holding my breath for a TT release of either of these :-s

They actually did, just barely changed, I think they even retained the US packaging.

Bummer.

Give it some time, the toy just came out. And since its an exclusive, that means the only place to get it is TRU so there cant be any early reviews. This makes it fun. My TRUs are getting these in next week so I will pick them up then and share my thoughts with pics

And, since it's American TRU, that just means the prices'll be jacked up to hell and back...

News Credits: 41 · by **Cobotron** » Thu Jul 14, 2016 8:08 am

Did UK TRU not get last years "Clash" figures?

Not necessarily. Their prices for Titans Return toys were quite normal. They are just jacked up in peak seasons (which is not he case now). Last year's Clash of the TF exclusive TRU figures were even cheaper than the regular releases. Also, this was found at canadian tru.

Remember when there was only 1 RID Decepticon warrior toy? :lol:

Pretty cool that this little wave is Con heavy. I'm liking the looks of this Screamer, but I think I like the reg-retail Scorponok better.

And, we knew all along there was a warrior Power Surge Prime, didn't we?

Yes, but not an Ultra Magnus redeco. With Clear Plastic Swords, no less! I am surprised you arent all over this.

I will buy all of these.

Pretty sure she's referencing our TRU's jacking up the prices to scalper levels, don't entirely remember if rid is suffering as badly as the cw figs, which were at $23 when I was there a couple weeks ago, but I definitely won't pay $23 for any of these

Hmm, the body nicely blends the G1 and Prime elements together (love the way the wings subtly evoke a cape), but then that head fumbles it by trying to add a strap to his large chin and a forehead crest flush against the helmet.

Fellow Seibertronian from Canada Down_Shift has shared with us some in-hand images of the surprisingly released Robots in Disguise Clash of the Transformers Warrior class Starscream, as reported on yesterday! You can check out packaging, robot mode, jet mode and close ups (of the steering wheel too) below.

Well, alt-mode isn't that great, but I dig the transformation. Seems impossible yet intuitive enough. I also really appreciate that his chest is not just a fake cockpit. I'd be tempted to pick this up even though I don't have any intention of buying any RID figures.

News Credits: 13 · by **kurthy** » Thu Jul 14, 2016 9:43 am

I hope this means he'll show up on the show soon, my son would love that!

I just wish they would add more decepticons to the warrior class. We need more guys and gals like the queen bee, the leadership on the island, the toad guy.

But it is fake - or do you mean the whole thing isn't just a fake cockpit?
