Ultra Mangus - a traitor? The most Autobot-y Autobot of Autobots? That's a terrible idea.

But I guess it'll make for a cool figure.
Not a traitor, pretending to be Decepticon to infiltrate their ranks.

I could live with that, but we won't really know until the show drops.

Yeah, exactly. It wouldn't even be the only one in the line since Mirage is doing the same.

Anyways, I found this cool post on Facebook and wanted to share:


I had an epiphany last week... Instead of pay however much for the Phantom Strike Squadron, why not make my own. I scooped up some extra Battle Masters for cheap and did just that. About $15 later and I am beyond happy with what I have.

Oddly enough, ??? is sort of a reversed colors version of Heartburn and Heatstroke with slightly darker blue for the torso and lighter for the rest instead of the other way around.

They'd definitely need to be more solid, maybe paneled to avoid transformation gaps, but giving them the option doesn't change the fact that you don't have to transform them. You can keep them in bot mode forever, but it's nice to have options

This right here. Add the gimmick, but they don' need to if you won't want them to. Just like the Quintesson, you don't have to transform it at all, but the option is there.

Also, to each their own, but I would prefer to see Starscream and the coneheads, no TC or SW this time around. I'd rather see things like Artfire take the place of one of those guys.

I'd love to see more Action Master updates (preferably transforming), Krok from TR is still on my want list and I'm slightly mad Perceptor never got a Mainframe retool.

Late post, but thanks for the review! This deco actually looks pretty awesome. I kinda wish they had used the alternate "miner" head, it would have made this deco hard to resist.

I'm still sad we most likely won't get a miner redeco of Siege Megatron that replaces the tank gun with a drill weapon.

But would it have made sense? From my understanding, this is supposed to be Megs as a battle-hardened warlord.

In case they don't then I already have a blue and black/purple tetrajet on the squad anyway.

Also, the listing you mention which I'll put below doesnt really mention who it was, so it could be anyone:

Voyager Seeker 2-Pack 477915

Late post sorry.

I know the two pack is not mentioned to have names one way or another, I say it's most likely to have the Coneheads because of the presence of Thrust on his own.

I don't see this line having the 3 main Seekers and the Coneheads bar some appearing in selects.


Many assumed as much, as did I, regarding the listings. But I think it could go either way. And the siege line had the 3 main seekers and the rainmakers all appearing in the siege line with two more sekers in different lines. Honestly, to me it would be more surprising for Thundercracker and Skywarp not to come out. Also, I really think Hasbro messed up on Skywarp's Siege deco and added ot the fact that its the seeker fans are looking for the most still, it feels like a no brainer to release and Earthrise version.

I think most of us feel the same way.

I must be the opposite, I absolutely do not want to see Skywarp and Thundercracker, they have had more than enough chances, let the coneheads and maybe another few obscure conehead styled characters have their time.

Stop wasting spots in the line on the 84 seekers. There are now 35 more years to work with


I believe we’re about to see Skywarp and Thundercracker in the Amazon “Earthrise mode 2 pack” this summer.

Not really, I just want that headsculpt used on a version of Megs that isn't in a wacky deco. :lol:

Yeah, exactly. It wouldn't even be the only one in the line since Mirage is doing the same.

Which is why it'll be a big disappointment if it's just regular blue and white Magnus since Mirage got a makeover. Though I can also see why he wouldn't be recolored since I'm thinking Mirage is a secret/unknown Autobot in the Decepticon ranks while Magnus is an obvious Autobot in the Decepticon ranks so why bother changing his look?

In Package and In Hand Images of Siege Nemesis Prime

Did any of you forget this toy was coming out? In case you did, here is a fun reminder that he is out now. Takara toys always come out near the very end of the month, so in the end of March we get the final Seasons and this Nemesis Prime. This was a Takara Tomy Mall exclusive which simply meant he costs more at whichever online retailer you preordered him from (and hopefully you did preorder him since most places are sold out now). He comes with a redeco of the sword that came with Titans Return Alpha Trion and sports the traditional Nemesis Prime deco. Even though he is an exclusive Japanese release, the name on the box is Nemesis Prime and the packaging looks the same as any other Siege packaging, though there is some Japanese writing.

The images were shared by Hobbybase on Facebook.

Due to Takara sharing Hasbro's names across the entire Siege line, as was the case with Power of the Primes and all of the movie toylines. ;)

It just says "Transformers: Siege" and "Nemesis Prime" in Katakana.

God I love how teal is an aspect of Nemesis Prime, it's always the big bling to what would otherwise just be a bland black deco.

Can't wait for mine to show up, forgot I even made an order on Ages 3 and up since it's been so long ago!
