I'd love to see a CC Scorn figure. As much as I like Leader Grimlock he does have a few issues that I think Scorn could avoid at the larger scale. Plus he's supposed to be bigger than Grimlock so it works out.

Definitely like the idea of Devcon at that scale. Same with Stratosphere, maybe include a Core Prime.

This is a dumb wish, but I want a large Dark of the Moon Megatron. The one we got at the time was a Voyager and the one we got in Studio Series was "new scale". I want a big one to go with the large Megs from the first movie to TLK. I don't know if I need a big Galvatron, but I really want a bigger Megatruck to have all four at the same size. I really don't want to (and wont) buy an OSKO to make that happen if such a thing exists.

It's far from dumb. The Leader DOTM Megatron is good, but the square legs are all wrong and he got so much hollow spaces to fill in. So with a Commander budget, I'm sure we can have a DOTM Megatron that would be perfect looking, and I mean, TRULY PERFECT looking in both modes, AND be in scale.

If we get something in-between the SS Leader DOTM Megatron and the Unique Toys Desperado, I'd be all over it.

It would also scale with all the old Legends class and Cyberverse toys from the toylines of the first film trilogy.

I just got Core Noah and I find hilarious that it's LITERALLY a "bot" with a vehicle on his back. No shame at all and I love it.

Also, that jet wasn't chosen at random. Not sure if I'm the first one to notice it.

Reminds me more of Jetblade.

I am still longing for a commander class Demolishor, that was such an awesome scene.

Stratosphere needs to be big too.

Infernocus could work at a commander price point too I think.

Putting that Jolt I got from the Walmart bundle to good use, here's my custom DOTM Jolt! In addition to paint work, I added some pieces to the head sculpt to make it look a bit more like the concept art design that the original DOTM deluxe uses!

Nice work! I've always had a soft spot for Jolt, for some reason. I think that it's because he turns into a normal looking car.

Thanks! Jolt's had an interesting hisotry with toys, especially with that original DOTM deluxe. It was crazy getting the first good look at his CG model with Sam Smith's screen to toy post!

I still love those DotM colors on Jolt, still wish he had made that movie too

Wow, he looks even shinier than in previous stock photos and the Pulse stream. Even compared to ROTB Prime next to him there's more of a reflectiveness to the silver. It's pretty impressive what they can do with these new plastic coatings over traditional paint.

The bot mode is perfect, but both vehicles are compromised. They are more "fan modes" than anything else. Regardless, I still want that Megs.

Hasbro is going big on the Bumblebee movie Cybertronian designs in 2024. Below you will find a review to the triple changer leader Megatron we'll be getting soon. Also, we now have the first images for the upcoming voyager Shockwave from this same subline. It is basically the same design we got with the core class version but now the size of voyager BBM Soundwave. The alt mode is still not much to look at. These images come from Transmimi over at TFW2005.

Very Prime Shockwave-esque altmode.

News Credits: 4 · Fri Dec 22, 2023 1:44 am

Somehow he looks more proportionate than the CG model

Fri Dec 22, 2023 2:25 am

Shockwave alt looks like he has fallen and will kill you before he gets up. "YOU TRIPPED ME!"

I think his thighs and feet should be a lighter shade of silver, though the darker silver does look grittier.

And it's amusing to me how his arm cannon is this big, massive piece that ends in a teensy gun barrel. *pew pew pew*

The arm cannon is mistransformed it folds up more

News Credits: 101 · Fri Dec 22, 2023 8:04 am

As I said, I would have preferred if Megs would only had one altmode. There's too many gaps in his altmodes. Still, I do like him very much.

As for Shockwave, he's pretty much perfect and his altmode look solid.

That Shockwave is a beaut.

I hope so because that's a bit off-putting. His chest being blacked out is also a negative, but otherwise he looks to be a solid figure in robot mode. As usual, the alt mode is a fail, but I don't get Shockwave for his alt mode. Looks like this will be an in-hand decision, but with the problems the Siege figure had I'm still looking for a good voyager Shockwave.

It doesn't fold in the sense that it packs away, it retracts more like an accordion. It's just covering the left arm, hand and all, and then pulls back to cover the hand, there's no reason for it to fold.

Compare:

Retracted

Extended

Extended is for the tank mode.
