Since Hot Rod is going to be in the Studio Series line, Rodimus Prime will be coming in Kingdom, with the current speculation being that he might be the Commander class figure since all of the known Voyager and Leader slots have already been accounted for.

So that means he would be a voyager Hot Rod figure with a trailer wrapped around him? Basically a slightly larger version of the PoTP figure?

He'd be a Voyager Rodimus.
Basically an updated version of the G1 Rodimus toy in Voyager scale

If someone else already said it, ima say it too. I hope we get really good versions of Galvatron and Cyclonus in this line

Cyclonus was leaked a while ago, alongside Maverick, Thrust, Netflix Soundwave, and a couple others. As for Galvatron... me too buddy

YES!

Yay Fossilizers! I'm very curious to see a non-blurry picture of that guy, but I'll probably get him regardless.

Hot Rod isn't something I'm interested in, I'm good with TR Hot Rod.

Voyager Cyclonus and Leader Galvatron are both in Kingdom according to leaks, we've just only seen Cyclonus.

I finally realized why I already like the fossilizers and also why they seemed familiar, they look like dinozaurs:



Something I greatly liked as a kid and also something that passed me by as far as getting any of the toys

And kingdom ractotite.

Then should it not be in the Studio Series thread?

I assumed here was fine, as the reveal and discussion of studio series hot rod happens on this thread also.

Looks like Will just beat us to it by making a news post in that thread.

Meanwhile, everyone, say hello to Paleotrex!

I'll take that

Kups looking good, liking the leg wheels, Not sure about the arm joints -his elbows might look off like siege Jetfires when bent. I dont really need him having TR/TL but it's looking likely that I will want him.

Bone dino looks cool and I'm likely wanting the fossilizers now rather than being able to skip them.

Anyone else find it puzzling that 86 movie characters will be both in the SS line and Kingdom? I just find it odd. The fossilizer looks interesting. I'm intrigued to see how it comes apart and works with other Transformers. Especially with the diversity of all the Beast Modes... Not like vehicles that have a bunch of 5mm ports to work with.

From the studio series thread:

Yep, overflow WFC figures. Had to release a certain high number of G1 figures, and wanted to finally get some Beast Wars into the mix since it's been hammered into them for a decade or so, so the other G1 figures go to/infect SS.

Yet another reason why this trilogy should have stuck with original series, and Start fresh with a full BW series in 2022.

Does it matter what line a toy is issued in?

AcademyofDrX wrote:Does it matter what line a toy is issued in?

Not to me. But, what I would say about it being a 'continuation', these guys don't have 5mm ports. It's almost like Arcee is the overflow character and not Hot Rod, Kup etc.

AcademyofDrX wrote:Does it matter what line a toy is issued in?

Yeah.

Going to the store next year, see's a shelf freshly stocked:

WFC: G1 and BW
SS: G1 and movie
netflix: G1 with damage
Cyberverse: G1 but for kids
RED: G1 but it doesn't transform

Online: Selects, for the obscure G1/G2

Basically: G1 everywhere, no matter what shelf it's on or what online marketplace you use, you'll probably run into lots G1. At least if they had waited for beasts, it would allow them to purge the mainline generations G1 kick at last and keep it constrained to that WFC line. instead, now it's going everywhere.

which in some cases, would be OK, and I am very happy beasts are coming. But they haven't realized you can make all this non-1980's stuff without having to make the same amount of 1980s toys. You can cut back on them.

AcademyofDrX wrote:Does it matter what line a toy is issued in?

When you are looking at them loose in a junk bin 10 years from now, probably not. But for myself, I only collect Generations currently. If there are toys being released in SS just because "they didn't have enough room" in generations, that makes no sense to me. SS is supposed to be the "best most on-screen accurate portrayal of each character". While Generations does try to evoke a sense of Original Series nostalgia at times, they have freedom to draw from the original toys, animated series, or comics on occasion.

But if you want to get your Haslab Unicron in Botbots packaging, by all means, you do you.

fixd for ya. Sorry, I just don't see anything remotely similar to the original series about Cyberverse other than some of the characters names.

I throw my packaging in the recycle bin, so it's not an issue for me. I collect toys, not boxes.

Surely next years line up is:

WFC: G1/Bw/new bw/a few characters from any universe
Ss: g1/baynus/offscreen baynus/bee
Netflix: beast wars with damage maybe a few g1
Cyberverse: non existant and replaced by something new or just a lull until the next Toon.
RED: G1, Prime, baynus, beast wars etc

Selects more from any universe.

Wouldn't mind a dedicated cross over line instead of the random cross overs and put under one heading (kinda like they did with potato heads/my little pony). Hasbro needs to get the licensing done right like Funko. No way a back to future deluxe should be £15 to £17 more than a standard deluxe due to rights. Same with rip off prices for gb ectotron and maverick compared to retail or even exclusives of size classes.

Best of luck to you finding/ordering anything online in your random packaging world. Kind of like the person who posted in another thread they ordered ER Arcee on Amazon, and got Cyberverse Arcee instead. I guess he shouldn't complain right? He got an Arcee didn't he? It's only packaging.

So does Paleotrex have a bot altmode or no?

According to leakers, yes he does

We saw it in the first pic of him.
