Speaking of that figure. I've only ever spotted that bot once, but I felt he is the bastard love child of green army men and Transformers.
Funny, considering he is
Well at least they gave him a gun and a hammer instead of something boring like a metal detector or radio.
And he's not this guy...

or worse yet, one of the perpetually sitting guys...

I've dismissed WWII Bee, but now I want him and some army mans to display together. Dangit

Now I want to pick up a second one for that display :lol:

My current one is on the Generations shelf as Bulkhead and hanging out with Bee

You have to settle for either a slight gap or the barrel of the gun being slightly off center. That space inside is a bit weird

Fellow Seibertronians, I hope you're not tired yet of the Transformers Generations Studio Series, because we have some more "big screen inspired" goodness for you! Courtesy of the "In Demand Toys" Facebook page, we have some in-package images of two upcoming voyager releases for the line: SS-42 Constructicon Long Haul from Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen and SS-43 KSI Boss from Transformers: Age of Extinction! These two are slated for release in Wave 7 of the Voyager Class of the Studio Series. Check them out below!

Are these two on your priority list of Studio Series figures? Long Haul is required to build a completed movie-inspired Devastator combiner, but KSI Boss is no slouch either, being a repaint of the highly praised Voyager Decepticon Nitro mold from the Premiere Edition line of Transformers: The Last Knight. Let us know in the comments below, and stay tuned to Seibertron.com for the latest news on all things Transformers!

First Nitro Zeus's packaging art has a slightly modified KSI Boss head, and now the KSI Boss's packaging art has Nitro Zeus's finalized head recolored to be less Shockwave-y.

Oy vey.

That Long Haul is super tempting. He's such a chunky lil boi. I daren't though as I know I won't be able to stop myself getting the rest of the Constructicons. :lol:

In other news, remember how I said I was skipping ROTF Megatron?

*sigh*

I like him more than I though I would. He's feels more solid than I expected with his hollow sides. Plus his claws give quite a bit of personality.

And, of course, what's a Megatron without a Starscream?

I like him a lot too, even as someone who isn't super keen on Bayverse Starscream. He's so much wider than I remember. He's super hefty though, like I was suprised at how heavy this guy feels, and how well everything sits together in both modes. I dont know if I'd like him if I'd bought him at full price, but the ~£17 each I paid for them was super worth it.

For fun, here's all my Studio Series boys together.

That's a nice price for them, where did you get them that price?

Kapow has those two and Brawl (I think?) for like £16.90 each.

I am so Hyped for SS Longhaul. What is his release Date?

News Credits: 1 · by **megamanfan** » Fri May 10, 2019 7:02 pm

so like, is ksi boss retooled at all from the nitro zeus mold, or is it just a repaint and a head that's permenantly attatched.

Just a redeco, no retooling done. In that sense he's like Cogman, so get both and do your own version of that cut scene

So after months of waiting for my Studio Series Optimus Prime (Bee Movie), it finally arrived.

And now I have to send it back and wait again.

I don't know if this is a common problem, but one of the leg panels (one of the front ones) has the pin gone through one side but not the other, and I can't stretch it over without breaking it. I've only just opened it and already have to send it back.

News Credits: 241 · by **Jelze Bunnycat** » Sat May 11, 2019 12:59 pm

Not common at all, so have it exchanged.

Misaligned pins are more common than one would think (risk of the trade, really), but having parts be misaligned with them is definitely not, and shouldn't even happen.

SS-43 KSI Boss.
A.K.A Nitro with actual paint. Having used my Nitro for a Thunderwing Custom, this SS-43 KSI Boss is VERY tempting.

I ordered SS 21 and it's coming tomorrow. So Excited

These things have been shelf warming every single Target I have ever been to. I had no idea that this was news, or that it wasn't reported before, or something like that. :???:

Edit: forgot to mention, these things were shelf warming for months, since way back in early November

My SS 21 Starscream Shipped yesterday. I can't wait for it to come.

What "things" are you talking about?

I guess the previous post was removed. I was referring to the Studio Series Bumblebee mask, and how it was just put into an article right now that it has just been found at US retail in Target. I was pointing out that these have been out in the wild for the past couple of months, and shelf warming no less. I thought these were discounted because of the post at first :lol:

Just want to put it out there, but you could have also just not tab in his ankle. Plenty of people on Reddit report that not tabbing in his ankles make his legs much more solid. But you do you

I've been doing that for about a month now, and the short-looking foot with a fat leg was bugging me too much to not do this. Also it is still very solid, if not more so now. I still highly recommend doing this if you want him more movie accurate especially.
