Ugly or pretty, you can get a deluxe TR for $15 at Walmart; and it might be that way with TLK too.

TLK Deluxes are intentionally priced higher than TR Deluxes.

Walmart.com has them at 19.97 a piece, is that what they sell for in stores?

No. They sell for somewhere between $14 to $15 in store. It's some random price like $15.37.

The Optimus 2 pack is now at Toys R Us Laval!



For the low, low price of 70$CAN plus 15% taxes.

I already have Protoform Optimus and that DOTM deluxe Optimus, I have it 3 times. All are in storage. So, guess what?
Yeah, pass.

Is there a way to get an idea of which Tiny Turbo changer is in a package without opening it? After I bought Bumblebee, I had a feeling he was the one I had before I opened it because I saw the words Chevy Camaro in small print on it. There are too many redos in the whole set for me to get all of them, but I would like to get the helicopter.

Big W has the Target exclusive here?

[Rainmaker]

Skullitron is very bad, do not get him. His robot mode chest constantly comes undone, leaving him with a floppy chest and he is very hard to stand. His transformation may be unique but it is not fun at all. His dragon mode is okay but there is robot kibble everywhere and the spine of the dragon is bare.

Then NEWS IT! It will be featured for sure.

I'm too lazy

(I also don't know how to transform his arms properly)

Probably gonna refund him and get Megatron or Berserker

I still call "pics or it didn't happen".

Okay, here it is.

First off, the robot mode. The robot mode is okay, the headsculpt is great. It has decent articulation. You can put it in some cool poses but some you need to use the transformation joints. Also, if you tried hard enough I'm pretty sure it could duel wield it's sword. The only thing letting it down is how the beast kibble usually gets in the way and the chest keeps coming undone, making him annoying to play with because his chest goes all floppy. His knee articulation is also hindered by the beast kibble, but you can fix that by pulling the tail and head out of his legs.
Robot Mode - 6/10




Next, the transformation. I hate the transformation, things get in the way and things pop off a lot while transforming. The transformation is unique though, but because of that the beast mode suffers. The legs split to become the dragon tail and head, because of this the head and tail are uneven.
Transformation - 2/10




Finally, the beast mode. The beast mode is flimsy, it doesn't have much articulation and barely counts as a dragon. I know it's supposed to be Cybertronian but there's too much robot kibble. A top-down view of the dragon makes it look horrendous. The uneven tail and head also kills it for me, and the poorly molded hind feet. There's also no storage for the weapon. (If there is, the instructions fail to mention it)
Beast Mode - 3.5/10




I do not recommend this figure, the only reason I want to keep this is for the Mission To Cybertron card so I can put all the cards together and finish the puzzle. But I'm just gonna refund it anyways and pick up Megatron or Berserker because guess what? These are the same price as their counterparts, yay!
Overall - 4/10 (Poor)

[-Kanrabat-]

Thanks!
And how are the joints in robot mode? Steelbane floppy?

[Rainmaker]

I don't know how floppy Steelbane floppy is, but they're decently tight, except for the shoulder pads which barely have any friction to keep them in a spot.

Just watch any Steelbane video reviews. He's a floppy mess.
At least this one seem tighter but that isn't saying much.

Well, guess it's a mold to avoid, no matter the release.

[Rainmaker]

I just realised, I think it has the same problem as Universe Galvatron, it would've been a lot better off as a Voyager.

Maybe he'll go full Scorn and have a voyager release down the line.

Fellow Seibertronian Rainmaker has a double feature news piece today, directly from Canberra, Australia. After finding both the Mission to Cybertron Megatron and SKullitron exclusives, they proceeded to prepare a dull pictorial review of the latter, newer figure with the different head sculpt to regular retail release - check it all out below!

I spotted the TLK MtC Deluxe figures Megatron and Skullitron in a Toys R Us in Canberra. They were $30, $5 less than the Premier ones which are $35. But the Premier ones are on a sale right now ($5 off) so the MtC ones might be as well.

Is it loose and floppy like steelbane

[Kotori_Sonoda]

Damn that head sculpt looks great, he looks terrifying.


Also picked up TLK Slug the other day, and I'm gonna pick up the Voyager Megs soon since he's out here in my country.

[william-james88]

While all the toys from the mainline of Transformers: the Last Knight have been revealed, we can do with more images of the unreleased ones. Our usual Weibo source has new stock images of the what the finished toys of Deluxe Bumblebee and Crosshairs will look like and how they are packaged. These are both from wave 3 along with Strafe and Cogman.

Enjoy!

[Sigma Magnus]

And as usual, the stock images look terrible.

hey rainmaker, you mention a card that connects to form a biger image for the mission to cybertron toys. Could you show us a picture of that card for both skullitron and megatron? I dont think we have ever seen it.

[fruityrobo]

HOW DO YOU MESS UP YOUR OWN TOY TRANSFORMATION? IF YOU WANT TO ADVERTISE IT, IT SHOULD LOOK IN ITS PRIME FORM (pun not intended) YOU SHOULD MAKE IT LOOK NEAT. NOT MESSED UP AND IMPROPERLY LOOKING

[griftimus prime]

is crosshairs a repaint?

[EvasionModeBumblebee]

is crosshairs a repaint?

Kind of a remold, I guess. His trench coat works differently, and his vehicle mode has been remolded to better represent his corvette alt-mode. And yes, he is sporting some new paint apps in car mode.

Also, Bumblebee's knee spikes are yellow like they should be now, in all the pictures we've seen so far, they've been silver. Man, I can't wait for this figure!

[SpaceKaseJase]

What's with Bee's mega butt-flap? I understand many feel it is improperly transformed, but I'm not so sure. Are there any other pics that show the hood folded up onto his back?
