too much packaging (pet peeve of mine...) otherwise wish there were 4 members or they round out the sets one day.. think my first micrometer team was in fact the deception air patrol and remain amongst my fave. Think I had a fetish for spy planes...

There does seem to be a lot of wasteful packaging, They could fit at least another member in there

So just to confirm, because, I'll admit, I haven't been paying the closest of attention but...

All sales points for the Siege line are:

Battlemasters (comparable to TM&PM from previous lines) $5.99 MSRP USD
Micromasters (comparable to Legends from previous lines) $9.99 MSRP (though it's 2 smaller figures *apporxamately* comparable to a single legends size when stood on top of each other?)
Deluxe (comparable to previous lines) $16.99 MSRP
Voyager (comparable to previous lines) $29.99 MSRP
Leader (comparable to previous lines) $49.99 MSRP
Titan (Omega Supreme) ??? *Hopefully* not more than $159.99

So there a Kremzeek figure in the NYCC display. TFormers reported it, but no one else seemed to notice it. It isn't the MP mold or the Kiss Players one. Thoughts?

Autobots Topshot and Flak

Note, the Hasbro packaging says "Flak" and not "Flask," as had been thought before. I was pretty sure that "Flask" was just a misprint on the presentation slides we saw at SSCC, as he was still referred to as "Flak" in other marketing and press materials.

Deluxes will most likely be $19.99 MSRP USD, just like those of the Studio Series line.

£10 at I.D toys here int he U.K on the micromasters so most shops should be £8.99 instore. Probably passes for me at those prices or at least until full teams are available.

So, will we see at least one more unique Leader mold? That would line up with POTP.

We would need a repaint though to line up, would delta Magnus really count towards that? Is there any other figure we would need at that size?

It is still uncertain since they stopped giving us MSRPs. At least we know Walgreen's price will be $17.99 (exclusives will be priced at $19.99)

I mean, you really think they'd have only two different Leader molds for Siege? I'm talking actual, distinct mold here, repaints and retool don't count.

I just realised that these lack those extra symbols we saw on the battlemasters and others.

I've noticed the instructions also have the symbols so they might be in there for each individual character or it could be on the back of the card.

I was looking at potp releases of Rodimus, Optimus, Optimal and Evil Roddy. So far we have two unique molds, room for one more and retool/redeco.

It's possible Shockwave get headswapped into somebody else. His design is suitably generically 'big clunky robot with guns' that he could get a new head (and hand) and some new/modified armor parts.

An Ultra Magnus retool/repaint does seem the most likely. There isn't much of anything they could do with Shockwave at retail (maybe a gray Shackwave exclusive later) and the third mold will be a tail ender so there's no room for a second use at retail there either.

Now that I think about it I guess there is a heavy retool that could work for Shockwave...




Wont work at retail in Siege since we already have a Voyager, but maybe down the trilogy or as an exclusive.

*squints*

You're right, that's strange then why it's not in the same place unless they felt it woukd interfere with his the names are displayed.

[Skritz]

Wasn't there a listing that said the third Leader figure started with a 'G'. Galvatron? Grimlock?

I just noticed that Kremzeek did show up in Seibertron's NYCC gallery. he's the tiny yellow thing behind Refraktor.

[ZeroWolf]

Am I being blind? I can't see kremzeek in that picture.

They could always do a lazy throwback to Energon Six Shot, no need for new parts or minimal

Is it that tiny dot of yellow just behind the left arm of the Refraktor on the right?

Yeah, sorry. Forgot to point it out. It is the thing on the right. Go to the link to get a better view.

Similar to the MP 05 Kreemzeek being translucent but his knees are way bent down. The Kremzeek for KissPlayers had him painted bright yellow solid.

Shockwave repaints:

Grey Shockwave (Shackwave)
Actionmaster Shockwave
Five Faces of Darkness Shockwave
Energon Sixshot


Not saying these are good ideas but there are options.

Forgot Shattered Glass Shockwave!

[Evil Eye]

Soundwave and Shockwave are instant wants. Reflector too, assuming I can get three. And hot diggity dang that Brunt is incredible!
