I'll be surprised if SS ROTB Optimus will merely be a retool.
From the truck alone, I expect this Optimus to be a pretty meaty boy. So, a brand new mold.

There is no SS ROTB Optimus. There will be a voyager ROTB Optimus released exclusively in the Buzzworthy line though. And it being that line, and a Voyager, I am not expecting a new mold

Sigh...
Oh well, a reissue of the Beetimus would still be nice, considering its absurd eBay price.
Even better if it would ne a Nemesis repaint.

I think at best it'll be SS Voyager Bee movie Prime with some new parts to represent the extra junk on ROTB Prime.

IGN reveals new Rise of the Beasts toys.

CNET reveals Rise of the Beasts Optimus Prime Nerf Blaster, masks, and Smash Changer Optimus Prime.

ComicBook.com reveals Rise of the Beasts "Beast Mode Bumblebee" toy.

Interesting. Loving the little Rhinox. Also, Aligator armor for Primal? The disrespect for Megs is palpable.

I added two more links. CNET and ComicBook.com both have even more ROTB toy reveals.

"Beast Mode" Bumblebee may set a new low bar in the realm of triple changers.

Not sure I'd call a wing pack and a bird head poking through his chest a third mode.

It strikes me as more of a powered up super robot mode kind of thing, like a Power Rangers Battlizer form or some anime power up.

I agree. Bird Power Bumblebee would be a more appropriate name.

I'd expect a Beast Mode Bumblebee, to actually transform into some kind of beast..

The phrase "Beast Mode" will probably be used in the movie, so its use here is likely just for marketing purposes and brand recognizability.

Megatron has been disrespected since DoTM.

Insert Chainsaw Man reference here.

Seriously though, these are all really cute, I may see if my nephew would have any interest in one or more of them when they're out.

The Battlemasters are my favorites right now.

Even if the combination is reminiscent of the clunky Spark Armor Cyberverse toys, any dual combining in TFs that small speaks to me.

Add in the Battlemasters, and this line is going to add up to me spending a lot more than I thought just a week ago.

yay.

Almost all of them look like Chinese rip-offs of Happy Meal toys.

That Skullcruncher battlemaster looks pretty sweet

25 new reveals and you'd think statistically one would be good, but no, they're all dogshit for 6 yo's. We've reached the period of time where mainline iconic characters are now shelfwarmers. The only company profiting off this is Ollie's.

These look great. Kids from all ages will be able find something to like.

Rhinox and Rhinox Gattling gun battle master look awesome. Would like 2 pair those 2 up.

Cheetor Sword is also pretty cool. As is Chainclaw chainsaw.


So there's Skullcruncher gun and armor figures.
and tigatron Crossbow and Armor figures.

Interesting that Rhinox is both a full figure and a battle master too.
And one would assume Cheetor will get a figure in the same size class as Rhinox.
Does that mean there's gonna be a Battlemaster Primal?

Just like back in 1984.

The little animals that changed to weapons look REALLY neat, very reminiscent of the ones from Siege. As for the rest, Im not the target demograph so not much disgruntlement here

Maybe you're lost, this is the thread for the kids' movie toyline. You might be looking for the Studio Series thread for toys that are not only intended for 6 yo's.

I loved the WfC Battle Masters, I'm glad they're making a comeback with new beast designs. I'm not sure if I'll get the two-packs, but I'll probably get all of the individual ones.
