It'll be nice to try to get Cybertron Primus as I didn't get it the first time it was released. Be nice to put him with my Platinum Unicron. Also the Deluxe retool of Thrilling 30 Megatron isn't completely terrible. I'll probably jump on that as well.

I cant, I am far too confused to die. Ok so we know he is a hedmaster, hence why he is human sized. But then he can take over a bots body and become that bot. Thats also fine. But then that means that the head he turns into is the same head as his robot mode head? And why is his body the same design as his body in tiny robot mode? So... con...fu...sing.

I am also confused by what is mainline and what isnt. Man I wish we had checklists.

He's ok looking figure I may buy figure

Not sure bumblebee figure will get voyager or deluxe big improvment

My first reaction to hot rod was "...seriously? Lockdown?" After spending more than 5 seconds looking at him I feel it works. They fixed the arms and I still enjoy grabbing lockdown from the shelf(box in the closet) and messing with him. Just did last weekend.

Skullitron looks awesome. I usually only buy decepticons in the movie line but I'm gonna these knights retools and hotrod

Ok Dragonstorm looks far better than I would have imagined. Awesome combined dragon mode and both bots look fantastic.

Hot Rod looks great. Sure he might be Lockdown retool but it works. Cogman looks rather slick too. Nitro looks badass.

Pass on 'Primus' as had him before and wasn't keen on him. Otherwise a damn fine bunch of figures revealed! :O

The roadbuster/lockdown mold is terrible

Agreed.

I disagree. Never had Lockdown myself but liked the Deluxe figure my friend had and i still plan to get an oversized KO and I had Roadbuster and really liked him. Need to get another sometime. It has some minor issues but then almost every TF does.

I still want some humans. Like it or not they're part of the story too and I'd like a pack of the main characters to pose with the TFs. Maybe Titan Master size although that makes Deluxe Sqweeks look even more oversized.

by **LE0KING** » Thu Jun 01, 2017 12:40 pm

What I see:
Nitro = EDC mech
Skullitron = mtmte Ten

Well.... SUGAR HONEY ICED TEA!!!

It is really going to be a battle to see who the best leader class figure of this line, and maybe of the year overall, will be. Megatron looks amazing, but Dragonstorm just took that one step further. Instant buy!!

Dammit Nitro!! You are dead sexy!! Also now put on the buying list.

Deluxe Megatron? Hell yes!!! More to add to the Knight Megatron shrine (and maybe knight shrine overall, my shelves will be going through some major adjustments once I settle wherever I end up for now)

Deluxe Cogman is awesome. I really hope he is Titan Master compatible. Deluxe Hot Rod is ok. Still wish he would have been a new mold.

Infernocus. Hell^2 yeah. Bring it to me now.

Skullitron: pass. Easily.

Cybertron: where is my pre-order.

I said the same thing. Really wanted some humans to display with my GHUG collection

I ended up picking up a 30 pack of those call of duty mega block soldiers and oh they scale great! Little stylized but doesn't bother me and they come with so many accessories. Saw it at toysrus and said "that'll work!"

Am I the only one who can see the titan master neck port thing on Cogman?

I been using cheap packs of WWII army men to pose with them in battle scenes but it always looked a bit off cos of the WWII era soldiers. But with certain parts of TLK that's not necessarily wrong now.

RAVENSPAR? Probably a 2007 Longarm and Landmine case where he's based off a non Transformer either that or maybe it's some random hi and bye Con.

Also another Berserker figure? Granted it's just a repaint of Cyberverse Breakdown but still another toy for him whats up with that?

Cogman is clearly AoE crosshairs remolded. :roll:

At least the toy looks good. (What's wrong with remolds in the first place when they look good?)

Why not just buy Cybertron Primus instead on e-bay? This guy here is $150, you can get Primus for cheaper http://www.ebay.com/itm/Hasbro-Transfor ... SwcgNZL5Oa

There are no preorders as its a retailer exclusive. Like the TRU TR set, you will get it when its either in stores or on the retailer's website. Plus, I am surprised, you will really get this thing for $150? I thought you were already saving for MP Megatron.

I think I see it as well, although it looks pretty high up. If it's the case that it is, I think it might be worth buying for myself. A movie-styled headmaster would be pretty awesome to have.

Nitro is the only one that looks savage and good blend well with my generations line.

The descriptions for the deluxe figures which confirms a few things

Megatron and Skullitron are exclusive to Toys R us, Hot Rod is exclusive to Walmart like all his other toys, and Cogman does comes with a Titan master also doesn't say he is an exclusive to anywhere!

News Credits: 4835 · by **william-james88** » Thu Jun 01, 2017 1:57 pm

so the final deluxe of the line was Cogman. Good to know. There will only be 3 waves in the end, just like in AOE.

that new Primus had me thinking of the SG version at first. its not an exact match after looking over the TFCC comics again, but it might be a good repurpose option for SG fans
