I want to show off something. When i looked at the 2 cheetors in my store before i bought mine and one of them had a noticeable bright spot on the on the very edge on one of the shoulderpads... as if it was weakened.
Has anyone spotted this issue right before opening the box.

You sure it's not paint bleed?

In the description, it mentions "Battle Across Time" as the name of these 2-packs, in place of Galactic Odyssey from the Earthrise.

I guess Skywarp got the boot, then. Ah well, better to lose him than Grimlock

He could be in another 2 pack

Ok so one listing but lots to go through. The new listing in question is Hasbro TRA GEN K Deluxe Mirage & Grimlock found on Amazon uk. We thank fellow Seibertronian aronjlove for letting us know of it. The listing specifically states that this is part of a subline within Kingdom called the Battle Across Time Collection where "fans can recreate the duel between G1 and Beast Wars and form teams from Maximals and Autobots". It is 100% certain that the Grimlock here is a redeco of Kingdom Dinobot since the listing specifically calls out Beast Wars Grimlock's look in the Uprising comic, and details that he turns into a velociraptor. Mirage is the same Mirage we got in Siege since he comes with the same accessories listed and we were told of this in the initial rumours. The differences are rumoured to be the deco which would not have the Cybertronian text. The other two pack rumoured to come out in this line would be Sideswipe and a redeco of Airazor as Beast Wars II Skywarp.

This is the second exclusive subline within Kingdom, since we already know of the Golden Disk collection. This happened in Earthrise as well where you had the "Villains" subline and the Amazon exclusive Galactic Odyssey collection.

I think if Mirage isn’t totally different from his Siege counterpart than I think I can live with the Siege version. I’m sure I can get something off ToyHax if I really wanted to to make him blend in better with the current stuff, and he’s already Earth-like in appearance anyway. Grimlock I could care less for, though interesting that it lists he comes with two swords. Perhaps a misinterpretation of Dinobot’s sword/tail combo?

Releasing Siege Mirage for a 4th time???

Does Hasbro know that hardly anybody was able to find Titans Return Windblade, Misfire or Twin Twist? I mean those 3 figures just barely got released 1 time. I know a lot of fans never saw them in stores at all, myself included.

What's so special about the Siege Mirage mold to make it deserving of 4 releases? Am I missing something here? Is it related to BW Grimlock in some way?

Earth version, presumably this time he'll have actual English writing on him instead of Cybertronian, maybe fully opaque plastic instead of having translucent legs, and given the listing has him with 20 steps while the Siege release has 19 he might even be somewhat remolded instead of just redecoed as previously indicated

At least all four versions of Mirage will have distinctly different aesthetics. Cybertronian, "invisible", Decepticon, and now Earth mode. Sure can't say that about the three slightly different versions of Impactor.

I remember my hobby store nexus had at least 2 Windblade figures. But i purchased Weirdwolf, Hardhead, Hot-Rod and Kup during that era. I never was interested in Windblade since she was new and not so rooted in memories of a character i was familiar with. (Both RID and Cyberverse were shown infrequently on cartoon network.) WFC Arcee was a different story. Transformers G1 season 3-4 was the only G1 dvd set i ever bought.

This image is getting passed around as a leak of Grimlock and it looks like complete bull to me. But I dunno, everyone else seems to be believing it

The plastic looks wrong (and inconsistent) and the spots look edited.

The head also looks too big. Looking at my Dinobot now I think it's safe to say this is edited. At least it gives us an approximation of what the figure will probably look like.

Oh so these will be available on Amazon UK, while the Earthrise twin-packs and Galactic Odyssey Collection never were...

That does look pretty fake but I do appreciate the 101 Dalmatians hashtag

Slight correction: the original leaks were for Sideswipe and Grimlock, along with Mirage and Skywarp. Now it's Sideswipe and Nightprowler, along with Mirage and Grimlock. Guess they shuffled things around.

I have no idea where the the concept art come from but theirs a wiki page for a BW Mirage that is unrelated to the G1 Mirage. https://beastwarstransformers.fandom.co ... Mirage_(BW)
I personally think it would be awesome to get a brand new beast wars figure based an a new animal form. I doubt it will happen as we'll prob just get a sige repaint, but I'll hope for a new mold.

Dont know why BW mirage is being brought up, the listing clearly states it is a G1 mirage, hence the battle across time moniker.

That's fan art for a fanmade character.

I am very very content with my Decpticon graffiti Mirage and Dinobot with a Grimlock style head would be neat? The issue I have is the base mold, the weirdly derpy raptor mode just .. kills the vibe for me For those who enjoy him power to ya tho! And if you missed any of the other Mirage's this is a great chance to experience a pretty dynamite figure!

Apparently, there's a leaked/digibashed photo of Grimlock here:

Thanks, sorry. Oh well, at least this new one is rotated correctly, for our viewing pleasure...

hoping they go all in on the earthmodes nstead of minor retools. If there is a red alert give him his shoulder wheels too tho anything to replace majority of siege molds works for me.
