Scrapface is interesting, but not sure i need a 4th Reflector mold character.

Just four? Amateur!

These reveals have some interesting decos but feel like, too little too late. Will Earthrise repeat this redeco'ing once it's show hits the air after the part 3's toys are already on shelves?

If these hit brick and mortar quick enough we may see all 3 Siege Megatron decos on the shelf all at once.

Call me cynical but I think the Netflix show will be as terrible as the Machinima shows.

[ZeroWolf]

Hmm I don't Know, the dragon Prince is quite good, as is Voltron. People rave about She-ra so it may just be the luck of the draw quality wise. I mean it can't be worse then the prime wars cartoon.

It most certainly could, anything can always be worse, there is no bottom barrel marker for the measure of terrible quality, it could go down and down and down to levels we might never seen before.

The Netflix show could be great but it could also be more of the same in quality.

[blackeyedprime]

Is the Netflix show the one that's being done by rooster teeth? If so it should be good and if not, chances are it will be good anyways.

The only one I'm solidly interested in is Magnus so far, if only because of the rumors. Scrapface is interesting, but since I went with show colors reflectors he wouldn't really fit with what I have, so he's an easy pass/

[ZeldaTheSwordsman]

The Netflix show will probably be decent, seeing as Netflix will employ people who actually know how to make shows and not just how to animate. And who, hopefully, will base their animations on the actual HasTak toys.

Wow, those renders look pretty sweet!

Hound looks pretty, but is a pass for me, same with Chromia.

Scrapface is interesting, but not sure i need a 4th Reflector mold character.

Decepticon Mirage is interesting, but I already have 2 versions, I don't really need that mirage.

Megatron makes me happy and frustrated a bit, seeing as how he is now silver and looking really nice, and he comes with a proper colored Lionizer. And the battle damage is much better. I only ever got his G2 Selects toy and really don't want another of the mold, but he looks so good and Lionizer.

Hot Link is interesting, i was thinking they would end up using the Earthrise mold, but this is a surprise. Here's hoping they keep going and give us the rest of the seekers!

1. Given that Sideswipe, Hound, and to a lesser extent Chromia are shelfwarming right now (at one of my Targets, the shelves were choked with Sideswipes and Hounds), all three of them are poor choices IMO.
2. Scrapface looks nice, and I want him, but at the same time I would also like to actually see regular Reflector on the shelves in my area before a redeco shows up.
3. I like that Decepticon redeco of Mirage. I like the SIEGE Mirage mold, and I wouldn't mind adding another character to my Decepticon ranks.
4. Megatron... It's a shame they couldn't have made him silver like that in the first place. I'm pretty sure if they had, he wouldn't be warming pegs. I do like the color-corrected Lionizer, moreso than whoever the Targetmaster with him is. Because given that the SIEGE Targetmasters are poor man's versions of the Legends Targetmaster molds - which themselves are all wrong - it's no doubt an inaccurate mess.
5. Honestly, it makes sense that they used the SIEGE mold for Hotlink considering where he appeared. I do hope the finished product is somewhat less dingy.

Do we actually know these are going to be sold at standard retail?

Also, that mystery box has spoiler warnings on it.

With Walmart the plan is usually to sell them at retail but sometimes things come in too late or they no longer care so often some of their exclusives end up online only.

Those weren't made by Netflix, though. Netflix doesn't make shows, they just air them. Other companies make them. Dreamworks made Voltron and makes She-Ra, Wonderstorm makes The Dragon Prince, and RoosterTeeth is making the WFC cartoon.

I doubt Earthrise will do this, but it is a pleasant Siege surprise.

I love the extra battle damage to Sideswipe, that looks rad

Ah ok, I hadn't caught the Walmart exclusive part. Thanks!

[Skritz]

Btw Decepticon Mirage would make a great addition to a collection...as some other character. I mean, kind of like Siege Barricade. By the way is he some kind of exclusive? I've never seen him in store, real or online.

It does look good. The problem is that with how many regular Sideswipes are still on the shelves, he's not exactly the best pick. Same for Hound. I hope they change the character choices before production really gets going. I'd love to see them do Detritus and Tigertrack instead.

[ZeroWolf]

The problem with that though (changing the characters) is that I'd wager these will feature in the show, maybe quite heavily. Thus hasbro wants them to promote the show. Those other characters may be good but if they're not in the show then what's the point? Also if things are this far along, then there's no going back, like Earthrise Megatron.

[blackeyedprime]

I'm def not buying all 10 of them for the build a figure teletron thing!! Think I just want scrap face, maybe magnus, maybe hotlink and maybe megatron.

[Autobot N]

They look neat, but the only one I’m interested in is Hotlink

If you have facebook, there is now a preview of the show:

Which has already been news'd in the show's thread.

Agreed, I will not buy them all for the Teletraan pieces.

I'm really annoyed that they are keeping that Leader class a secret until it shows up on shelves, i want to know dangit!

[ZeldaTheSwordsman]

I'm going to show off some of the fun I've been having with my SIEGE figures:

[Rainmaker]

What's up with this Teletraan thing? I'm out of the loop for that.

A piece of it comes with each of the netflix Siege releases. You have to buy all 10 to complete the display

Also that last picture! Bravo

That's actually kinda neat, but does that mean there's only going to be 10 of the wfc-n releases?

Thank you, thank you. Apex Optimus/God Ginrai is the gift that keeps on giving when it comes to over-the-top weapon loadouts.

I added one more pic that I forgot because I hadn't refreshed the tab with my DA gallery: Ultra Magnus doing a handstand.
