Having wrestled both my Phone and PC into submission - I can finally catch up on everything.

Omega Supreme and Springer are absolute must haves. I'm not sold on the idea that Supreme has transparent plastic claws (which he clearly does), but I'd imagine they're that way to represent the fires of the rockets igniting as it takes off\flies, so I like the potential idea behind it.

Transformers Siege Caliburst and Smashdown pre-orders on Amazon.com

Motto: "I-I'm sorry.. I-I'll be going now.."
Weapon: No Weapon
Seibertron member Jtprime17 has found two pre-orders over on Amazon.com that have slipped under our radar, revealing Transformers Siege Battlemasters Smashdown and Caliburst! Smashdown has a Minotaur robot mode that transforms into a warhammer with a “smash” effect, whilst Caliburst is a retool of Blowpipe with a new blast effect. Having snuck out ahead of their official reveal, we can expect the Hasbro announcement very soon this weekend for NY Toyfair, with our continued coverage this weekend! We have mirrored the images below, here is the listing for Caliburst and here is the listing for Smashdown.

Has these pair of Battlemasters added to your excitement at the recent reveals of Omega Supreme and Springer or have your systems simply been overloaded with awesome already? Let us know here on the Energon Pub at Seibertron.com!

So Caliburst is the battlemaster that was shown with Thindercracker? Interesting :-? I knew he was a retool of Blowpipe though

Smashdown looks awesome, and know I know what Hasbro meant when they said something about hammer Battlemasters coming soon for Wreckers fans. ;)^

As far as I know? It could be some sort of obscure reference but I'm leaning toward new character

I'll guess it, if Astrotain's listed, Blitzwing might be there (i want Apeface and Snapdragon but i would love to see them badly.)

Well I'm happy to be wrong, but I did say we'd find out this weekend one way or another. I wouldn't use this gimmick personally as Jetfire is a bot to me and was only a con for like... Five minutes? But Im happy the choice is there.

Good to see this as a feauture. Especially as I'll be putting Jetfire in the middle of my shelf as a result of his side swapping history. Though, I do wonder if the armor has a similar gimmick or if it's permentantly Autobot

There was a really good Blitzwing just released in Titans return we don't need another one. Astrotrain is a bit different since neither of his alt modes in TR were particularly good. Out of the triple changes he was the only one who really needed "fixing"

Jetfire’s looking more and more like an MP substitute to me. I’m fine with the 2014 one as my neo-G1 Jetfire.

Digging the Battlemasters, Smashdown’s actually pretty cool!

Hoping that there’s more surprises in store this weekend. Most of it’s already been leaked, and I don’t like having my Christmas spoiled by looking at gifts early.

Blast Effect aside, looks more like a mere redeco, not a retool. However, as he completes the Decepticon Targetmaster trio he's a must. Springer... may be one too, just to get a mold different from T30 Sandstorm.

To be honest, we never had a Star Saber on a retail (Except Masterpiece.), perhaps Star Saber will be revealed on later months?

My guess is that, while Star Saber remain plausible, that he's not for the Siege part of the trilogy. But then again, a Leader Astrotrain is weird because we already got a Voyager Astrotrain TR and the Siege Leader are 'Voyagers with armor', which doesn't remotely fit Astrotrain since he's a triple changer. A leader Astrotrain would need to just use the price point for size and multi-modes alone. :-?
