Hasbro has revealed in full the toys from the Transformers Seige line, which is under the War for Cybertron trilogy, during the SDCC 2018 breakfast event. We have many images below where you can see:

Ultra Magnus
Ironhide
Optimus Prime
Chromia
Sideswipe
Cog
Battlemasters
Micromasters

The display shows off how the whole line centres around customizable weapons. You can even use the flame effects in the micromaster cars to make it look like they are going super fast. Of course these are al hand painted prototypes so it is not indicative of th final deco. Chromia is a retool of POTP Moonracer but her combiner component may have been removed. Ultra Magnus is also quite the enigma. He seems to be a white prime covered in armour and while th robot mode is spot on G1, the truck mode is an homage to the original RID show.

Let us know what you think and if you give us a list of the Micromasters you see, we will update the article accordingly.

Will.. I think it's time to rewrite that top 5 Magnus list. We have a new winner...

[Cobotron]

Hand painted samples are hand painted.

Hound looks pretty darn cool.

And, whats up with that cool looking cat/dog beast bot thing?!

More! More! We need more info News Team!!!!

[Skritz]

The initial line reveal didn't do this new line any justice because there's some pretty cool and impressive stuff in there which all look very promising.

It was really Cobotron's list. He's the one who chose the top candidates, if h wants to redo it thats fine by me.

[Mindmaster]

So, ummm.....

....where are the Decepticons?

Well, I'd have to have this new one in hand to really determine that, but I'm not afraid of change or improvements, that's for sure.

And hey! Glad to see you back in action Amelie.

Ironhide is a must-buy, Magnus is pretty cool but I’m not interested in most of the others yet. Wonder what the Decepticons look like. . .

Is that a Voyager Ultra Magnus? It looks...interesting. Huh.

Yup. Looks to be fashioned very similarly to the MP Magnus.

There's also a Deluxe Hound, and a blue robot with red missiles or smokestacks sticking out of his shoulders, I can't make out to the far left. EDIT... That's the Deluxe Weaponizer. Whoever he is.


Interesting line.

I still think it is a leader class figure and I actually prefer that way. As for the deluxe weaponizer, I think it is a combination of weapons from other figures. For example, the torso part seems to be from Ultra magnus, as you can see those wheels. It could also very likely to be the other way around, a deluxe figure that can be dissembled into weapons for other robots.

So, uh... What's Magnus doing with an Earthen altmode while everyone else gets Cybertronian ones?

Well what do you know, Ironhide, Hound, and Magnus actually look interesting, especially since they actually look like they have Cybertronian alt modes, unlike Floodlight Prime and his partner-in-crime Sidevents.

I wish there was a clear shot of robot mode Cog in this, instead of just having to pick out which weapon pieces are his parts, but he still interests me.

I...can't tell if the front of Chromia's alt mode has a peghole for a combiner HFG or armor. It might, but this angle doesn't help.

And here I thought more G1 would be boring same old...I mean, some of it is, but some of it is actually surprisingly interesting.

Now, um, Hasbro, question: where are the Decepticons?

[galvatron00]

Hot. Dang.

[Cyberpath]

Thanks for the new pix!

This new Generations batch looks very promising, but I like the mud/wear effect even less here. Wish this "line unification" would end.

I wonder what the truck would look like with the pin and top panel removed.

[Skritz]

So, ummm.....

....where are the Decepticons?

Hasbro decided that, since there's 'brand unification' that they will do like Japanese toyline and only sell heroes.

[hausjam]

I can't say there is anything from this line I am interested in yet. Which I am really thankful for given all the money I have spent on 3P this year.

[Wireless_Phantom]

Well, I'm buying it all. I wasn't going to get that Magnus, but between the RID style alt mode and the fact that it seems to have a white prime on the inside, it's a must buy for me now.

[ZeroWolf]

As I thought, all micromasters and weaponizers will be mine...especially the wolf sword...all the rest can go hang but it's only half a display without the people they are fighting against...

[bluecatcinema]

Some fantastic stuff there. I think I can see some reimagined members of the old Autobot Race Car Patrol among the Micromasters.

Don't know how I missed this!!

[ZeroWolf]

Just took a glance at the slides from the presentation, and we've got a red alert redeco on the way and a prowl it seems.

[Victinoko]

Now I need the Magnus, even though he will be expensive because he is a Leader Class figure. The Micromasters look great and so do Chromia and Ironhide.

[KVO Prime]

2 questions

Is chromia a repaint of moonraker?

Micromasters look to have same articulation as originals so why bother with new?
