This toy just looks too bloody awesome to be real. I maintain that it looks great as a generic human mech, and an awesome one at that -- and it should be fun as heck to plonk a proper head on there
What would work with that colour scheme? Nucleon, Doomshot, Overboard?

Sign me up for Grax! I've got a spare head for him, probably going to do that once I get him. Thanks a lot :</(

Courtesy once again of
Planet Iacon's Facebook, we have an image of yet another upcoming toy from The Last Knight -- Turbo Changer Dragonstorm! The centerpiece of the Turbo Changer class, Dragonstorm's light-up gimmick allows you to activate the patterns on other Turbo Changer toys -- not that there aren't other simpler means to do so. Nevertheless, check out the image below and tell us what you think in the forums!

ANYBODY! Like Breakaway, his pallet is so neutral, I bet any TM head will look good on him.
I'm becoming very much more interested in this Nitro Zeus transforming action figure.

Gah, still no back shots of Nitro or any hint as to what the heck happens to his wings in bot mode. (I'm guessing maybe they curl into the turbines on his back, but that's far from clear)
I want to wait for a sale to get him just on the principle of things, but between the obvious high interest and him being the last(?) wave I don't know if I'll have that option...

Lots of weirdness in this line from repaints to remoulding to characters doing things they didn't in the movie. Disappointed to see nitro is a headmaster. Only up side to it is it'll make an accurate nitro as he dies in the movie.
Dragonstorm is also weird as one has to speculate whether the combining of the 12 knights was intended as what was to happen from the get go. It sort of seems it intended to be one powerful individual then two combining then the 12 which just really seemed those who wrote it knew a big enough number would stop each character and reasoning for the ability to combine getting any exposition. Dragonstorm probably sums up the movie as little is known how or why but it just serves a purpose to look cool and get semi involved.

Wait another week and then continue to cry with the rest of us who didn't buy them the second they were available. :-<(
EDIT: emoticons look terrible if you don't use official ones.
In-Hand Images of Transformers: The Last Knight TRU Exclusive Cybertron

The Mission to Cybertron Toys'R'Us exclusive.. Cybertron figure has been sighted across a number of countries, US
included, and we now also have in-hand images of this reimagining of the Primus toy of old, sporting a deco that resembles more the original 1986 movie shots of the planet from afar (don't believe me? Listen to the
Twincast explain!), thanks to Twitter user
Sing4!
They explain how the sounds and effects are the same as Primus - view our full gallery
here for comparison - and that still uncertainty on the clear plastic used. But check it out for yourselves!

Absolutely gorgeous. Also a eat touch that the cyberkey now looks like a G1 matrix. Not sure why they didn't go with the movieverse design though.

If primus isn't real, then explain this Easter egg. Checkmate, Matrixiests.

Once more via Weibo user
NOTRAB, we have another look at the suddenly
teased re-release (not officially confirmed yet, mind you) of the 2007 movie Optimus Prime leader class figure - check out our gallery for the figure
here - sporting the new chromed parts, the same head as the first toy, and paint tweaks on the chest.
The figure is in a group shot with the same character's toys from Age of Extinction, the new Movie Masterpiece toy, and the Premium version of the '07 toy. Check it out below!

So we know it's the gun variant just from the ears, but I'm pretty sure the most frequent use of that mold was the bladed version. I wonder what this is going to be sold as. Probably platinum edition, but in a perfect world it would be in a box set with some other good Optimi.

Where's that pic from? It isn't with the other in-hand pics.
Also, that looks more like Cybertron Optimus Prime's Cyber Key than not.

I rather called it Primus's Chip Square rather than the Cyber Key/Omega Lock itself

I'm not entirely sure why, but I need that 'Cybertron' in my life. Coincidentally, it's the same colors as a new pair of kicks that I'm looking at! I feel like it belongs with my G2 toys, but not sure as what, other than what it is.

Give it your new shoes. Give Primus an offering and appease him!

That's not the accessory we were talking about, though.

I was just thinking about how the TRU I visited today struggled to fill a very tiny like 1/8th of an aisle with no exclusives yet, and not much to write home about, seeing those pallets and displays... Awesome. It is interesting how Hasbro figured out that maybe the TF movies aren't kid friendly enough to warrant wave after wave after wave of toys.
Or maybe they didn't figure that out and there are better reasons. Or?
