not big enough not by a long shot

Yeah that's a tad small for a Titan.

Yeah, unfortunately, the Cyberverse toyline doesn't have any larger size classes than Ultimate class. It would take a Generations release for Iaconus, Croaton, or the Dweller to receive toys that do their sizes more justice.

And hopefully someday we get those. The former 2 certainly deserve it, they ended up being major characters wholly original to the lineup.

i like the idea of having a generations Iaconus and Croaton and Dweller in a titan class they have cool designs

I wish we had seen more of the Dweller, but again, it does not hurt to go all original and try some new things. Current main "Generations" is stale as hell right now

New official images of Deluxe Arcee and Thunderhowl from TakaraTomy Mall:

Arcee's eyes look way better than they did in the CG renders. Oh, and she isn't a partsformer like her Earthrise figure.

Oddly enough, we have had very little images of the upcoming Transformers Cyberverse deluxe Thunderhowl figure, which is the only new character to get a more collector oriented figure in the line, and thus one of the most anticipated Cyberverse figure. Well, thanks to some new Takara listings on their TTMALL web store, we have several new images of him. And not just renders, but images of the actual toy. We still don't get a great look at the beast mode, but it's better than what we got before. We also get a lot of new shots of Arcee show seems to be the best Arcee of 2020 with a really nice take on the alt mode.

Plus we have new images of the upcoming simpler battle Call figures for Megatron and Starscream that my young kids are really looking forward to. That Megatron has a nice Galvatron homage in his energon fuelled mode. Those images are from Dorksidetoys.

Let us know what you think!

Thunderhowl looks a little weird compared to his original photos but is still welcome.

Arcee looks pretty nice, still heavy as heck backpack, but she looks pretty good

Is it kind of sad that this Arcee has a better backpack than the ER one?

Not really. I have a good animated arcee, a good generations arcee, a good headmaster arcee and now I'll have a good cyberverse arcee. So no need for whatever Earthrise is offering. Some fans wanted the ultimate cartoon model come to toy form and they'll get it with all the sacrifices that entails. And for those who preffer more the idea of a transforming toy, well there's a ton more options including this one.

Also, here is a comparison of the 3 arcee toys coming out this year.



Think of turning this into an article all of it's own.

Oh? Arcee no longer have a disturbing creepy face! Unless her face is unchanged and it was only the previous photos that were unflattering? Also, not only her backpack is relatively reasonable, but her vehicle mode is simply adorable. Her only true fault are the hollow parts.

Well, guess she'll be coming home!

I'll be honest, I have no context for Cyberverse and haven't really been paying attention, but Thunderhowl and Arcee look really good. I think Arcee's vehicle mode is actually really nice and hits all the "Arcee boxes" while still looking unique. And Thunderhowl just looks so weird, and for some reason his beast mode reminds me of the badger moles from Avatar The Last Airbender. I also really like the "electro sword" effect part. It looks like such a cool effect

Wow, Arcee's face looks SO much better than it did at Toy Fair. It's amazing the difference between a painted prototype and the finished product. She's not perfect, but this Arcee is going to be really tempting.

Arcee is sharing the same problems with her feet as earthrise, it looks worse on earthrise but cyber verse really looks like her lower legs are backwards way around. Might be possible to snip them off and make a base for her to stand up with out them.

Damn, this has to be one of the best Arcee toys we've gotten since Animated. I actually kinda want it.

That Arcee looks great. Some of her design cues in car mode remind me of G1 Blurr which is interesting since G1 Blurr was considered for repainting as Arcee.

I'm really amazed at how different the actual Cyberverse Arcee look like compared to the Toy Fest reveal.

She went from "nope nope nope" to "do want!"

That Megatron energy Pickaxe looks really neat actually.

There is a lot of fun Cyberverse news to cover at the moment. We have the first images for two upcoming toys. One being a grey redeco of the semi transforming scout class Bumblebee toy, and another being ultimate class Iaconus. The new Bumblebee was found on the Meijer site while Iaconus was posted on Instagram by Hungry Grimlock. For those not following the Cyberverse line too much, the ultimate class is their biggest size class, as big as the leaders of the past (slightly bigger even), but only costing the price of a voyager class. That's the class that awesome Grimlock from last year was released as. You can click on the blue text to see size comparisons between that class and other toys to get an idea of how big Iaconus will be. While not in scale with the warrior, deluxes or even scouts, there could be some fun to be had with legion class figures. The Iaconus has the energon armor spring gimmick all ultimate class figures have this year.

Speaking of the ultimate class, Takara posted some fun pictures of the upcoming Cyberverse deluxe Arcee riding the previously mentioned ultimate class Grimlock. There's a still from the show for you to compare. We also see her putting on deluxe Grimlock's crown.













Lastly, but certainly not least, the latest episode of Cyberverse is available on youtube. You can watch it below and feel free to join our discussion on this animated series here.

Seriously. At Toy Fair, prototype Cyberverse Arcee looked incredibly creepy. But the more I see pictures of the REAL Cyberverse Arcee, the more I see her as one of the best looking Arcee ever made.

I'm so buying her when she comes out.

I picked up the 1-step Bludgeon and he is so cool. I was already gonna buy Cyberverse Arcee for my god-daughter but now I may have to get one for myself.

Wow! This looks like a great Grimlock figure! I mean this is one of the best takes on a Grimlock toy release ever. That Arcee also looks FANTASTIC! I need to save some pennies to look into getting both Arcee and Grimlock from this series. So many series and all released about the same time, much of the figures are so close to an homage of original G1 cartoon robot designs makes it a New Golden Age for Transformers fans, younger and older alike. Absolutely Awesome! Ironic the world seems to be in chaos over the Covid-19 and civil unrest YET its also a great time to be a TF fan. We can't have everything. The ying and the yang always are in play.

I'm very pleased by the looks of Iaconus. He seems to have the posability of Ultimate Grimlock, which is what we really need for him.

Definitely looking forward to more pictures of him

That's actually the Ultra class Grimlock in that picture, not the Ultimate.

Thanks, I changed it in the news on the front page.

Now I want a picture of Arcee riding the actual Ultimate Grimlock. Will be much better scale-wise. I think.

Love Arcee! Absolute must here.
Iaconus is looking good so far!

I hope they repaint/mold him into the other Titan, there were only 2 right? I saw each episode and absolutely love Cyberverse. It's my second favorite TF series, G1 being nr 1 of course.

I really hope they also make Chromia and just repaint Arcee a few times. Give us a Warrior Ratchet, maybe a Warrior Skywarp with the square remolded head so I can get more of those.

Still need to get Repugnes, these guys were so cute, same as for Sharkticons.

I hope Hasbro/Takara give Cyberverse more toy attention in the future. Earthrise is pure win so I'm not complaining.
