Still no sign of the Prime Arcee. Just the same characters over and over.

The line hasn't even begun yet. We're just now seeing packaged images of the first wave. Why would we see any images of the later waves at this point? It's too early for that.

At this rate I don't think even in-hand photos would convince Brokebot.

I prefer the BH look for Knockout.

Megatron and Hardshell are the one that would interest me the most but i stopped collecting.

I really dont want this to become a line giving us transformers toys that we wanted for a long time since the point all along was we assumed they would transform. Or else this will just become the garbage placeholder line.

Is it a reference to Hardshell who got only a commander figure?

I'd say so. Both Will and i agree that Prime Hardshell still deserves a proper large transforming figure.

So originally the Megatron and Soundwave I preordered were supposed to arrive today, but
received an email this morning that they've been delayed...
Anyone who preordered actually get their figure(s) yet?

Doubtful, with Walmart, the pre-orders will probably be delayed several times and be a few months late, with the figures showing up in stores before the pre-order actually comes in

But thanks for the heads-up.

I hate the idea of Transformers that don't transform but I will admit these are better than the Action Masters. At least these guys won't have arms that fall off.

We don't know that yet.

I do hope this line get enough success so that we can get Pretenders, "MP" Action Masters, or human characters.

Was that a thing that happened to Action Masters? My well played with ones have super loose arms that wont stay up and could be popped off with a little effort and my Axer has a leg that likes to fall off, but no arms falling off.

While I don't want most of those things you listed, that is kind of a cool thing about the potential of this line; they could totally make a set of small but articulated human characters that scale well with the figures. And essentially, "to scale" with the RED series also means they'd basically scale well with Voyager class figures too. That would actually interest me.

So, a little disappointed that I received an email that my RED figures are going to arrive until September 10th now. Makes me wonder if we'll start seeing him hit shelves at towards the end of this month.

They need to make RED Botanica.

Two of her, so we can have both of her modes.

We have news that the first wave of the new Transformers RED Series figures has been found at Canadian retail. Miles found them at a Walmart in Calgary, Alberta . They were priced at 29.99. The initial wave has Soundwave, Optimus Prime and Megatron. They are all 6 inches.

If you have found them elsewhere in Canada, share your sightings with our community in the sightings section and on our boards in your region related thread.

And if you found them in another country, let us know by submitting the news.

This sighting was reported on Facebook.

I saw these RED figures too. They still look horrendous and are the new Action Masters. :BANG_HEAD:

I still have no clue why these even exist, especially because of how horrible the original Action Masters were. (that goes for sales, and for the figures)

Geez Hasbro! What are you thinking!? The point to Transformers is the fact that they TRANSFORM! *sigh*

Not picking these up at all.

It's like they're pushing to see how much they can get away with right now by bringing back non-transforming figures and having so much partsforming going on in Earthrise and Studio Series. Also, lol at that Megatron arm.

Hard pass. I'd rather get kidney stones than have these.
