(Proposed Botcon exclusive, unreleased.)
Lion seems more likely somehow.

That's a little out there, even for hasbro. Maybe if they had acknowledged the other lines before now, it might happen, but I think they'll stick with the more logical redeco's
Yeah I mean it's as likely as them doing a Liokaiser
wait...

Accidentally.

The first image of the actual figure came the day before the CG from Hasbro on Facebook.

Or another certain remold of a Japanese character. I guess Hasbro really likes Victory since he and Liokaiser both come from there. Maybe Victory Leo isn't so unlikely.Lunatic Prime wrote:But that head on his shoulder could also be a wolf head I think.
I'm glad I'm not the only one that sees a wolf head. I know people are saying lion, but just how credible are our sources? Have they actually seen the lion mode or are they just assuming it'll be a lion since Hasbro did that one Alpha Trion prototype from BM Snarl and Alpha Trizer (a different character all together) from Thundertron. Then again Thundertron doesn't look like a Lion to me either so who knows?

Alpha Trion can be seen sporting a lion head as a pauldron, which would seem to confirm that he does at least have a lion mode.
So what do you think of this new version of Alpha Trion? Remember to leave your thoughts in the comments below.
Reminds me of Leobreaker and Lio Convoy.

A telescope? Those gadgetformers are not to my taste. An owl would've also been cool and fitting.

Look closer. I can see the face, complete with a beard, just fine.Rated X wrote:You cant see the face. I dont see a beard.
The Titans Return rumors said that there'd be a triple-changing robot/lion/spaceship Voyager class Alpha Trion figure, and the rumors have been more or less correct about all the other Titans Return figures we've heard about thus far.Rated X wrote:Im more inclined to believe this is a lio convoy mold. While anythings possible, I dont believe Hasbro would go for an Alpha Trizer when botcon did one very recently. Its just way too obscure for hasbro.

If you look at the etching on the blade, it is symmetrical. The color image also seems to point to a symmetrical blade. I think the top portion of the blade is just washed out in the filtering of the image.
¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I agree with this whole-heartedly. I started collecting TFs when Transformers news wasn't as easy to come by during RID and sometimes popping into the store and finding the two-packs that were a surprise was always awesome.
My friend Steve doesn't really collect toys any more, but he has about 50 times the fun going into TRU than I do because he never reads the news.

I still remember going into a store when I was 15 and seeing RID XBrawn prowl and sideswipe and losing it. The autobot logo again! I flipped out and scrapped every cent I could find to buy them. I had no idea it was coming. I honestly think that was the last time I was shocked in a store.

Owl would have been cool yes. And the wings could have made for good spaceship mode wings.

Or more simply, a hasbro designer thought it was cool
