Thanks to the keen eyes of fellow Seibertron users, Praxiusprime77, Hokutron and Aronjlove, we've learned that YouTube toy reviewer, TonTon Reviews has uploaded another Transformers Kingdom review! This time, it's everyone's favourite tank minibot, Warpath! Kapow!

While not the first update this classic character has received, this one looks to be the most faithful to the toy and the animation model from the G1 cartoon.

We have embedded the review below for your convenience:



What do you think of Warpath? Will you be getting him? Ley us know in the Energon Pub and stay tuned to Seibertron for all the latest news and reviews!

That was my very first thought when I heard about this Megatron 6 months ago. It was an obvious no brainer they would reutilize the mold and actually give us what we want...A nice large sized g1 accurate non "H" tank, but one that has full treads. Hasbro, why on God's earth would you spend and waste money on a new smaller mold when all you had to do was add a new head and some red paint on Eathrise Megs and call it a day. I would have so wanted that. But now that you instead made this smaller mold, what are you going to do with it? How are you going to adhear to your cheap policies and reutilize this mold into more characters? The only one I can think of is Blitzwibg, but I wouldn't even buy that one because it would be too small. You should have just used Earthrise Voyager Megatron as a mold for Warpath and retool it for Blitzwing. Such a wasted opportunity and a waste of money developing a smaller mold for Warpath that cannot be reutilized for any other mainstream G1 character.

I'm guessing the leaker saw his butt flap pop off and just assumed it turned into a shield

Honestly I think you could get more mileage out of this Warpath than Megatron. You can squeeze out obscure dudes like Gutcruncher (who I’m really hoping for) and Gobots Treds and maybe other characters. Megatron is so unique to himself that it’s hard to do anyone else other than different versions of himself, it was the biggest reason why I didn’t buy Combiner Wars Warpath. The recently revealed Selects G2 version is pretty good, and I could see them doing the purpley G2 Hero version as well, and if they’re feeling really saucey maybe even do a Robots in Disguise Bludgeon
