On the side on Sky lynx's box you can see artwork of Thrust. I found the picture in the earthrise photo gallery. I tried to add it here, but could not get it to download correctly.

That guy's name was "Scorponok".

In Japan, "Scorponok" was the name of the little guy while "MegaZarak" was the name of the big guy. Hasbro, on the other hand, uses "Scorponok" for the big guy and just "Zarak" (or "Lord Zarak") for the little guy.

But, in this Titan figure's case, there's now a third guy in the middle who is based on the animation model of the Japanese "Scorponok" while the little guy is based on the animation model of the American "Lord Zarak".

The little guy will obviously keep the "Zarak" name while the big guy gets the "Scorponok" name as per Hasbro's traditions, leaving the third guy in the middle currently a mystery.

Actually, I believe "Lord Zarak" is the name of the middle stage, leaving the Titan Master unnamed. Apeface's partner Spasma went unnamed on his packaging, I could see them do the same for Scorponok.

Yeah, there were obviously some dueling ideas and crossed wires behind the scenes of The Headmasters. It seems rather obvious that someone wanted to rename the big robot form to "Megazarak" to parallel how Fortress (Cerebros' Japanese counterpart) becomes Fortress Maximus, while someone else wanted to keep the Scorponok name. And through some comedy of errors, the large transtector got renamed to Megazarak while the Scorponok name was retained... but assigned to the non-scorpion guy who formed the head. One of many facepalm-worthy things about The Headmasters.

I'm fine with just calling them both Zarak since both models ultimately derive from the 1987 Lord Zarak Headmaster Partner.

Indeed they are. Thrust and Ramjet are drawn based on the original 1985 toys (the rectangular-bottomed frameless cockpit canopies give it away), but that's presumably because the artist grabbed the first ref they could find.

I never had any doubts they'd be happening. The Earthrise Seeker mold being essentially an upscaling of the Classics mold means that it's just as simple to slap on new wings and an altered noggin. Hopefully they'll have a panel to cover the face in jet mode.

That would be the most sensible, but it's been pointed out to me that Hasbro Pulse's order page for Scorponok names the middleman "Lord Zarak" while the smaller guy goes nameless.

Though, I suppose another sensible naming scheme could be "Zarak < Lord Zarak < Scorponok".

I'll say this: In The Headmasters, Fortress' interim body (which would be Cerebros in the US) didn't have its own name.

To me, I think it makes sense to call the smallest figure Zarak or Lord Zarak. Especially if you're going by US canon, because it's not like Lord Zarak was a giant next to his fellow Nebulans.

It did as a toy. Takara named the Spike figure "Cerebros", the Cerebros figure "Fortress", and the big guy remained "Fortress Maximus".

The show just chose to ignore the Japanese toy's "Cerebros" name altogether by applying the middleman's "Fortress" name to both it and the little guy.

Yes, but so was the head, at least in the show. In The Headmasters, since the conceit was that the larger robot bodies were just puppets for the guys who formed the heads (also seen in the US cartoon with Scorponok and Fort Max), they ignored the toy packaging and used the same name for both the body and the head robot.

Yeah I'm going with the Titan Master going unnamed, with the middleman being Lord Zarak. Looking forward to folks using the Titans Return Titan Master Scorponok on the Lord Zarak body though.

Earthrise is looking much more appealing to me than Seige, there are actually a lot of figures I want to get from it. I'm planning to buy Wheeljack, Starscream, Optimus, Arcee and Smokescreen, while Megatron, Cliffjumper, Grapple and the Quintesson are on my maybe pile. I'm hoping a version of the Voyager Soundwave with an Earth alt mode also happens in Earthrise or the next toyline.

Some observations, now that all the reveals have happened and we've got some many at-show pictures and promotional images to pour over:

Earthrise Megatron does look better in person, thanks mostly to that silver paint job not obvious in the CG renders. Also, the feet look much improved in regards to functional ankle tilt (and hiding away in alt mode). I wish that huge turret piece broke up into more pieces, giving us a more normal sword, a gun barrel for behind the right shoulder, and maybe a shield of some sort? I think that would have done a lot to sell us on this double-dip and, in a way, homage the versatility of the silencer, stock, and scope accessories from the original G1 toy.

Arcee can indeed just wear her "hoverboard" on her back. It looks as bad as I had feared.

Smokescreen looks fantastic! I don't know why so many people are upset. This is a way bigger upgrade than Earthrise Megatron got from Siege Megatron. He looks G1 perfect now! Smokescreen's number is wrong, though (as is Wheeljack's), being "80" instead of "38." Is that a licensing thing? Also, in the show room shelf photos, you can see that Smokescreen's shoulder cannons are blue on the robot mode sample, but black (like the CG render) on the alt mode sample. Weird. Those same shoulder cannons also look sculpted to better match Bluestreak's cannons than Smokescreen's. The reverse was true in the Siege mold.

If you check out the pictures of the "updated" Earthrise display area, with the Wave 1 guys, you'll see they're still using an outdated Optimus Prime with gray hands and other paint anomalies as opposed to the retail version we actually now have. They couldn't have cracked a fresh final sample out of a box for the show?

Remember how people thought Ironworks would make for a decent take on Unicron herald Hook? Wouldn't stubby Airwave make for a good Sinker? Geoff Senior kinda gave up when drawing him compared to the other two so Airwave in purple would be a huge improvement!

Here's a terrible photoshop from me.

Arcee's hoverboard is really growing on my now that we've seen it with its "wings", looks more like the Green Goblin's glider now.

So to my knowledge, Target had been selling them but they're not listed on the Target site,its an in store only deal.Looking to add these Transformers to my collection.I also collect vintage G.I.JOES and new modern Star Wars figures.Glad to be a part of this awesome community. Autobots roll out.


Wouldn't take anything as set in stone but looks like:

March: netflix releases series 1
Deluxes: sideswipe, scrap face, chromia, hound, mirage
Voyagers with battle: megatron, hotlink

July/aug: earthrise wave 2
Deluxes: arcee, alicon, airwave, smokescreen
Voyagers: quint, snapdragon
Leader: double dealer
Commander: skylynx
Titan: scorponok

October: earthrise wave 3
Deluxes: fast track, runamuck
Voyager: megatron

Haven't checked micros or battles. Kind of weird not getting a megatron until wave 3 but prime can carve up a lot of alicons to pass the time (or just fight any of the other megatron).

Liking the the slither battlemaster looks based on the never produced headmaster head that headrobots made.

I bet Takara will make an absurdly expensive limited edition of ER Scorponok into Select Black Zarak.

It's impossible that it's not already planned.
Come see my latest creation, a Galvatron Combiner using 4 SS86 Sweeps as limbs

Agreed. Not quite as ludicrous a price tag as Grand Maximus. But considering Scorponok is being listed as relatively cheap for a City Bot, I'd imagine Black Zarak won't be. The inverse of MP-44 to 49.
