Literally, the best thing they could have done for a new Leader Ultra Magnus. Also very happy it's a leader class figure, as I always Imagine Ultra Magnus as one of, if not the biggest members of the Autobots, not including special cases such as city bots or combiners.

As Emgo always says when reviewing this guy: MAGNUS

we've got a red alert redeco on the way and a prowl it seems.

Could you provide a source for this?

I've figured out why Optimus has the big lights.
The toyline's subtitle is 'seige', it's supposed to be a heavy battle lots of smoke, in the dark Prime needs the lights to navigate well.

[ZeroWolf]

I wonder if you could put optimus prime in that armour...

[bvzxa]

finally toys done right

It's nothing concrete but it's on the slide showing the title and the graphic showing chromia, the ark and so forth. I mean they could just be for the purposes of illustrations but red alert is the double of sideswipe (which I guess he's supposed to be as they share mold practically all the time)

[Ultra Magnus]

Yes these look like some VERY interesting toys indeed! In my humble opinion, you can NEVER HAVE TOO MANY ULTRA MAGNUS-i...

[Cobotron]

Holy ****! This is Dopesauce!

Well, there gores my ability to resist this line.

[DISCHARGE]

Hot Dang!

As far as Micromasters, they have improved the articulation. Looks like Individual legs, with a ball joint hip, and knee mobility. Arms look like a single ball joint, but that's not a big deal to me.

Definitely an upgrade to the originals. Now, it's time to play the guessing game as to what the Decepticon half of waves 1 and 2 look like. Wonder what they are trying to hide.

Also, was there any sign of Titan-class this year? I thought that last year they showcased something at SDCC.

LIONIZER?!

That is simultaneously the best and worst name I've ever heard!

[ZeroWolf]

Lioniser...so you're not a wolf...but you're bought anyway as you are a cool looking beast. Cog will also be mine...don't have fort max but I do need someone literally made out of weapons.

[mordhelm]

Lionizer is not a new character, it was Action Master Rad's weapon

[o.supreme]

Bad News....I'm not seeing a 5mm on the front bumper, pretty sure Chromia is not a combiner component .

I'll reserve judgment on Cog, to see if/how he actually interacts with TR Fort Max

[Skritz]

Ah well at least she's visually consistent with the other fembots of her team.

[Burn]

They sure did a good job of getting the G1 robot mode right on Ultra Magnus, and then (classic) RID Magnus for the alt mode.

Still going to be hard to beat CW Ultra Magnus though.

Looks like I'm going to have to set up a separate shelf for this line, was hoping it could be incorporated into neo-G1 but that Ironhide won't fit, and that oh so very very nice Cog won't either.

[william-james88]

There is an official Transformers Facebook page and Instagram account, but did you know there was an Instagram account for Hasbro Pulse as well? Well they do, and it turns out this is where they uploaded all the Transformers Siege official renders.

Below you will find the official images for:

• Hound
• Battle Master Lionizer (who was Action Master Rad's weapon)
• Micromasters two packs Battle Patrol, Race Patrol, Rescue Patrol.
• COG - Weaponizer partsformer
• Ironhide
• Chromia (who does not combine)
• Leader class Ultra Magnus, which is a White Prime cab with armor

Which of these do you like best? Let us know!



















And here is G1 Lionizer, for those curious

[Flashwave]

Thry DID IT. HOLY CRAP THEY DID IT.

They Generation'd RID MAGNUS. WHOO HOT DIGGITY HOO!

he turns ibto a car carrier THAT ALMOST ACTUALLY LOOKS LIKE A CAR CARRIER. Bought SO FAST.

*ah hem* hound is actually giving me second thoughts, but I want a Hound with good feet.

Ironhide looks like fun, but without Ratchet, I'll probably get him for play value vut I dont think he'll replace the Votcon duo just yet

Love the minicons Mixromasters.

[Wolfman Jake]

I was hoping for an Ironhide, but at the Voyager scale. Looks like this guy is just Deluxe class. I wonder if he will at least be a little bigger in stature than the Universe 2008 Ironhide mold. Siege Ironhide does look good in robot mode, and I'll be sold if we get a Ratchet retool and redeco to go with him.

Unless Chromia does turn out to be Combiner Wars compatible, she's a hard pass. The Thrilling 30/TF Legends version is far superior. I don't need another member of Alpha Trion's Angels with the same body type either. Moonracer and Firestar are sufficient for that mold.

Hound looks VERY interesting. I'm digging that his alt mode pretty much looks like his old G1 jeep alt mode with a roof. It can easily pass as a mildly stylized Earth-based vehicle. His Universe 2008 mold still holds up quite well, though.

Ultra Magnus is a neat surprise, with his alt mode being decidedly Car Robots/RiD 2001 in style and using the original G1 "white Optimus Prime with armor pieces" gimmick. However, as I said a few pages back, I'm happy with the Combiner Wars mold, so this is also a pass.

All of the Battlemasters and Micromasters will be bought. No doubt about that. It's interesting to see that the Battlemasters won't strictly be "Targetmasters," but include melee weapons as well as guns.

[WreckerJack]

Chromia would be my pick of the bunch. Lets hope she doesn't get short packed like Moonracer did. Still never found that figure

[Carnivius_Prime]

Hm not really digging the style of these. Way too blocky for my tastes. It's cute seeing the Micromasters back though but each patrol seems to have lost half of it's members? I was quite fond of the Race Car Patrol back then but my fave was the yellow Lambo (free wheeler i think his name was) who isn't in that shot. Always did like the Battle Patrol's earthy tones too. I'd like to see Micromasters next to Legends/Legion figures though I suspect the Micros are a smaller scale going by their simpler look and obvious screw hole in the torso. Basically the old size but with more articulation?

[o.supreme]

So...who wants to translate the Cybertronian (or is it Japanese...I cant tell...) on Stakeout's Car Door, being so obvious this time around, I would hope it would not be something offensive to some, or at least it could be caught in time for Hasbro to make the change...
