I've seen some articles about SDCC having some *virtual* panels even though the convention itself is canceled. Whether or not Hasbro plans to do any of these, or just do slow burns throughout the Summer with *Fan-Fridays* on Pulse is anybody's guess...

Thanks to Hasbro's Facebook page, Seibertronian aronjlove, and an email from those subscribed to Pulse updates, we have some cool new images to bring to you of War for Cybertron Earthrise Titan Class Scorponok!

This possible biggest-ever Decepticon figure deserves some good packaging, and that's what he gets! These shots show off the front and side of the packaging, as well as a shot of the figure standing next to his box. The impressive box art shows the gargantuan Decepticon with Optimus Prime clutched in his claw, with the Ark in the background.








Also, if you missed out on preordering him via Pulse, he's back up for preorder there again. Just click on any of the pictures above to be taken to his Pulse listing.

Does this make the anticipation harder to bear? Tell us what you think below, and se what your optics can spy in the artwork.

Is that megs shooting Scorpy on the side of the box? I know Double Dealer is swooping in on the background.

The box art proportions look... Off? Like, his arms look a little too long, at least to me. Still super excisted to get this guy. Just hope that the die-cast Scorponok from Titans Return looks good on the Mega Zarak part

[D-Maximal_Primal]

That might be the greatest box art ever made

[joevill]

Bad ass!

It's definitely top tier. Speaking of which...I know there are books which collect original TF Box Art.... Has anyone suggested to Hasbro to TT to publish a book for more modern Toybox art? I'd love to have a coffee table type book that had all the art from Unite Warriors, the Titans, even most of Hasbro's standard releases going back from CW to current are pretty neat.

That looks awesome!! I can't wait to get him.. hopefully he won't get delayed like Doubledealer has been - just got the Hasbro Pulse email about 3 hours ago

This makes the insane part of me want a titan sized Power Master Optimus Prime.

I could see Hasbro redoing the design later for Commander Class since they've already exhausted so many Optimus redesign to remake.

[ZeroWolf]

How about a titan boxset consisting of commander class power master Optimus Prime and Leader Class Godbomber?

"We just got this obscure thing a couple years ago, but I didn't like it because [insert minor arbitrary fan quibble here] so I want a new, more expensive version of the toy not that only three people will buy."

[AcademyofDrX]

F'real tho Titan PMOP does sound pretty cool actually

"We just got this obscure thing a couple years ago, but I didn't like it because [insert minor arbitrary fan quibble here] so I want a new, more expensive version of the toy not that only three people will buy."

You under estimate (and forgot) the amount of Geewhuning that came from Titans Return and people being butthurt Target and Powermasters were now Headmaster.

Was it delayed? The original estimated ship date from puls had been September 1st, the email I received said August 1st. So I think they have a wrong date or templates incorrectly and it will be early?

Yet, I concur with Academy that the solution to that is not "Make 'em 2 feet tall and cost an arm and a leg".

Originally it said that Doubledealer would ship on approx July 1st

.. not "Make 'em 2 feet tall and cost an arm and a leg".

I disagree.. if Hasbro made one that was 6 foot tall, and really well done, I'd give them both arms and both legs

Well, not all of us are swimming in money like Scrooge McDuck.

Missed it the first time, so I got to pre-order now. The box art is really good. This will be the first Titan I will get with its box. Every other one I have I got 2nd hand from eBay with no box. But this one is worth it.

About how far in advance of shipping will my card be charged? I haven't actually used Hasbro Pulse before...

Also, looking at that ankle joint, as someone who has had his ankle snapped sideways, that pose brings back some cringeworthy memories.

They do an authorization charge for the full amount right away but immediately refund it. Then a few days before shipping they process the actual charge for the product. Sometimes you even get an email giving you a heads up to confirm the payment method.

Okay, thanks.

I don't do preorders, I usually just buy figures when they're out and I have the money. But this figure looks to be the best Titan yet and I have a bit of a G1 Scorponok fetish so I didn't want to miss out.

I would LOVE a Commander Class version of both Max and Scorpy.

Very poor Fan First Friday for Transformers. Other lines like Power Rangers and Marvel legends get full on new reveals and all we get is a fancy box.
