It's no different from how we first heard about the Netflix line of figures in the first place.

Should be easy to verify, from someone who works at Walmart

Cheetor EAN:5010993777549

Well, clearly he must be a yellow Ravage redeco then!

The thing that's really throwing me about that listing is that it's part of the Netflix line, and since that as far as we can tell is always redecoes/maybe retools, means we're getting some kind of Deluxe Cheetor in either Earthrise or Cyberverse's Deluxe line.

Maybe it's a Cybertronian Cheetor that turns into a car as a redeco of Prowl or Sideswipe?

Hmm... Honestly trying to figure out which Siege/Earthrise carbot mold I'd prefer a Cheetor from... Maybe Chromia actually? Not sure I'd prefer it, but it might match the proportions/kibble of Cheetor a bit better...

We've seen that before as a Botcon exclusive (or Collector's Club) so, eh, why not?

...Thinking about it more, given it seems Cheetor is kinda their Designated Beast Wars Ambassador character right now, not sure they'd want to make a car version right now.
Definitely not impossible, just not what I'm most expecting.

If anyone wants to verify the listing them selves, it’s as easy as downloading the Walmart mobile app and following these steps. It brings up all the same basic info that scanning it in store would, besides the SKU number if the listing is still locked.

Here’s also all the EANs for the rest of the rumored figures.

Bumblebee: EAN # 5010993782178
Elita-1: EAN # 5010993782161
Wheeljack: EAN # 5010993782123
Red Alert: EAN # 5010993782116
Impactor: EAN # 5010993782864
Deep Cover: EAN # 5010993777501
Barricade: EAN # 5010993777495
Quintesson: EAN # 5010993777525
Cheetor: EAN # 5010993777549

Anyway, thanks to Emerje, I was able to dissect the mixed listings by looking at the product codes and the trends they follow. With a fair amount of certainty, this is what we may get for WFC:

Battle Masters
Firedrive
Lionizer

Micro Masters
Battle Patrol
Race Car Patrol
Rescue Patrol
Spy Patrol (possibly the missing half of an already released team)
Rescue Patrol
Sports Car Patrol
Road Patrol

Deluxe Class
Sideswipe
Chromia
Ironhide
Autobot Hound
Prowl
Cog
Sixgun

Voyager Class
Optimus Prime
Megatron
Starscream
Thundercracker
Autobot Springer

Leader Class
Ultra Magnus
Optimus Prime?

Yes, we have a Leader Class Shockwave, BUT that may actually be for the Studio Series and not WFC (how does movie Shockwave size to Prime anyway?). This list is nowhere near a certainty, but educated guesses with firm bases.

Looking Back,
Damn you hit all the notes

...well this listing is legitimately the highlight of my day. I don't even like Cheetor that much compared to other Beast Wars characters, but I'd like to think any Beast Wars is good at this point. Maybe the hint that Hasbro was planning something for the BW anniversary next year is no longer that far-fetched sounding (but I'm not going to assume that like I want to, since I'll likely be disappointed).

Regardless of if this is a repaint of a mold we haven't seen yet or a Cybertronian mode pre-Earth repaint, I'm buying whatever this will be so they hopefully get the message to MAKE MORE.

What if it isn't a repaint? There were rumors for so long about MTMTE Bumblebee and Wheeljack (for clarity, the Sunbow saucer and space van) for so long in the lead up to and during Siege, maybe they've landed here as exclusives?

I'd forgotten the next five pieces are with the next five deluxes but... Now that we are looking at way more than five deluxes (unless some of the upcoming listings are earthrise with a price hike rather than netflix or voyager sizes not entered in the system properly) I'm still wondering

ELITA 1 ELITA 1 ELITA 1

toycave_studios wrote:ELITA 1 ELITA 1 ELITA 1

I agree. The combiner one was cool but also limited by the gimmick and sharing a mold with Starscream. I'm curious what she will be because in the trailer for the Netflix show she has different kibble than Chromia, she doesn't have the same backpack.

Elita 1 huh? Using the Chromia mold too, I bet.

Hm. I think I'll pass. It's a bit tempting, but if I went that route I'd also have to get Siege Chromia. And, TBH, I'm not thrilled at that mold.

Elita-1 is interesting, but I really hope she's not a retool of Chromia. Most of the other fembots already look really similar, some variety would be nice.

As for Cheetor, this listing has me excited. But as credible as it is, there's a large part of me that'll only believe it when I see it.

Hmmm...would they dare re-relelese a 12 year old toy (universe/Henkei) Cheetor with a new paint scheme? I just don't see how they could come up with a new figure in a short period of time.

There is Cyberverse Cheetor.

Or, what most are expecting, a Siege toy (like Sideswipe or Prowl) merely redecoed as a Cybertronian Cheetor.

Honestly, until the figure is released, I'm not getting my hopes up for Cheetor. I've seen some people speculating that it might be "Pre-Earth Cheetor" but really it's just Tigertracks and they needed to keep the trademark for Cheetor.

As hopeful as I am that they might do something next year for Beast Wars, I'm still skeptical, and if anything this listing actually makes me feel a little cynical because if it's a repaint of Sideswipe, they may call it quits there and say "We celebrated Beast Wars!" which I'd find more insulting than if they just didn't do anything.

Though, I am now curious as to why Cheetor. He was in Cyberverse, but I can't really imagine that they'd do Cheetor rather than either Megatron or Primal who are arguably more iconic and easy to sell because of the heads being similar to the G1 Megatron and Prime

I'm fine if it mean we get Tigertrack.

Don't give Warden some ideas.

As unlikely as it is, just because the Netflix line started as repaints doesn't mean it only has to contain repaints.

Amazingly, with the info available at the time (Leader Shockwave was in both SS and WFC, which we didn't know at the time, with the same type of "Cheat" no less). Soundwave's cassettes were the biggest surprises, really.

Well, do we know the full cast of the show?

What we know so far of the cast is here.

We know a good chunk of the cast but that doesn't inherently mean we know all of them, there were several characters present in the trailer that were not part of the voice cast announcement and vice-versa, Cliffjumper is in the show as announced in the voice cast list but there wasn't any sign of him in the trailer, Barricade is in the show but not in the voice cast list, this could mean that characters like him and Hound go unvoiced but who knows.

So characters like Deep Cover and Cheetor could very will be minor characters, cameos or spoiler related characters such as how the spoiler box set contains not only Ultra Magnus but Rung as well, the latter of which we do not see in either the cast announcement or the show trailer

Of course they could be toy line only characters.
