This Optimus Prime interests me... More than the other AOE Prime. Can someone explain the story behind this?

it looks so G1-ish
i think its part of the more simplified design they were going for

[Hip-Hoptimus Rime]

Rescue Bots stuff looks great! Any sightings or word of a Dani Burns mini-fig? Hard to tell from the pics. Thanks!

So many dinosaurs. So, so many dinosaurs. Too bad half of it is T. rex, and the other half are the other typical, overused dinos (and Pteranodon). What I'd give for a Therizinosaurus...

I'm starting to think they were pulling our leg with Chromia and Arcee.

Is that a MASTERPIECE GRIMLOCK I see! With a Toys R Us sticker! Oh I pray he's schedule to be part of this years Masterpiece lineup!

Yep, he's getting rereleased, and looks to be similar to the TakaraTomy Asian exclusive version.

What are the difference between the recently reissued Asian Market version of MP Grimlock and the one that TRU had in North America a few years ago? I can already tell that he's now without the "sticker" paint apps on his shoulder/biceps in robot mode that the first NA release included.

In non-Transformers toy fair coverage, we bring you a gallery and information on My Little Pony and Star Wars toys.
For Star Wars, there are some new things, like the Command Series line that looks like traditional army men figures…but they are Star Wars characters. Also be on the lookout for the Black Series, which will have a new look for fall of this year. Upcoming figures will include a Jabba the Hutt with moving arms and opening mouth, a Darth Vader from Episode VI with a removable helmet, Chewbacca, and many more. There will be many more revealed at the San Diego Comic Con, but for now, check out the pictures below, and click on any picture to take you to the full gallery.









If you’ve been looking forward to seeing what the My Little Pony line has in store for you, check out the images below and click on any picture to take you directly to the main gallery to see everything that was showcased. In this gallery, you’ll see Littlest Pet Shop, My Little Pony, Equestria Girls, some new things from Play-Doh, and more.

If only the Kreo quality wasnt garbage. They dont stay together... as lego would say they have no clutch power. So no matter how cool they looks you cant assemble them and assume they will stay that way. Instead they fall apart almost on there own.

If they were made by lego, while they would cost more, they would disappear because the quality would be much better.

I have the first wave of Kreo combiners. They were a mistake to purchase.

I fail to see why non TF products should be front paged just because they were in the same toy fair. Might as well front page pictures of the restroom too since the hasbro staff "officially" used it.

[Spleenzorio]

Soooo with all these new movie toys, I haven't seen any sign of Starscream anywhere.

thats probably because Starscream is dead... his head got exploded by sam in DOTM, remember?

This kind of attitude is not necessary.

[Nemesis Maximo]

Hmmm, that Skybyte looks kinda wonky. I'll need some better pics to be sure.

Roadbuster looks promising, was hoping for a bit more updated look, or bulky, but not quite as shocking as Whirl.

Jetfire has me all tingly, as does Windblade.

[5150 Cruiser]

Wow, this makes me embarrassed to be a TF fan. These make the previous film toys look like Masterpieces in comparison.

I'd say most of the responses make me embarrassed to be a TF fan. I can understand wanting toys to collect, but at the same time people have to understand that kids have, and always will make up the majority of who buys these. Being pissed that Hasbro is actually making toys that.. wait for it... Kids might actually enjoy? Go figure. This is the 4th movie. We've all known for a long time that one of the biggest complaints of the movie lines was that the transformations were too complicated. This is there answer. Ya, there not going to work for everyone and I get being upset. But calling them garbage because they were designed for children, the next Gen of FT toy collectors is ridiculous.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA Now that's funny. Well played sir.

True, but you can't deny he has a point.

[5150 Cruiser]

Ok, so according to TF2005 this isn't the full line. There will be additional lines that will be revealed later in the year. So there is still hope of more detailed, complicated transformations for collectors.

Jazz, Brawl, Bonecrusher, and Blackout all had grisly demises in the first movie, but they didn't let that stop them from appearing in later toy lines!

More promotion for Hasbro is always a good thing. It shows that we like Hasbro and appreciate what they do for us fans, so going an extra mile to show our appreciation beyond the scope of expectation couldn't possibly hurt.

I also question of this issue would have even been brought up if a certain girl's brand hadn't been included.


That aside,

Blades looks pretty cool. Almost like a new kind of Seeker. Or like Action Master Thundercracker's old jet armor suit. Or even like Go-Bots Aero-Bot and Silver-Bot.

And, OMG A MORBOT!!!!!! YESYESYESYESYESYESYESYEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Looking it over again, I was wrong to compare it to the Asian Takara reissue. This one looks to be closer to the regular Takara deco but with the previous Hasbro accessories.

this is true, but a lot of those re appearances where mostly repaints. which i think hasbro will try to steer away from this time around because all of the new figures are the simply designed ones. Using old figures in the AOE line would kind defeat the purpose. That and the sheer number of actual figures coming out, i dont think they would bother redesigning a new simpler toy for someone who isn't even in the movie.

that and i'm sick of chicken leg starscream, though the leader class screamer is a work of art. 3 times was enough using what was essentially the same design, and seeing how he wont be in the movie (barring some crappy resurrection, or AWESOME ghost resurrection, lol) they wouldn't bother redesigning him just for the sake of a toy, i dont think... actually they probably would... but still i dont think any of the older characters will be making an appearance in toy form again.

Sounds good to me. A screen accurate Hasbro reissue of MP Grimlock is a total win!

Because Hasbro, who produces all of these products, was kind enough to invite us to their invitation only event?

Getting tired of these thinly veiled "I don't like your stance on 3rd party" posts. If we had time we would take pictures and cover every single item they had on display from Transformers to Play Doh to MLP. In reality this isn't even really Toy Fair. Toy Fair starts tomorrow, this was Hasbro Media Day.

And all of these lines have had one or more of their characters interact with TFs in HUB bumpers, so they're canonically as relevant as Disney's Death's Head.

Sorry, but I had to point that out in the most unpleasant terms possible. I'm bitter cuz' there'll never be any SheZow toys to do a gallery of, and Aligned Optimus personally welcomed him to Team HUB.
