You probabably noticed that yesterday's reveals did not seem numerous enough to fill a whole wave of Studio Series toys. Well that's because the wave will be made up mostly of repacks, and we now know their contents thanks to listings on
Entertainment Earth. You'll notice that 86 Bumblebee and TF One Prime are not there and that's because they are in their own specific case that retailers can order all year round.
Core wave 10
Actual breakdown not given but an 8 figure case includes
SS86 Steeljaw
SS86 Ratchet
Bumblebee Movie Rumble
Deluxe wave 25
2x TRA GEN STUDIO SERIES DLX TF7 BARCELONA (ROTB Wheeljack)

Mattel creations is doing something unheard of, they are releasing a licensed Transformers toy that actually transforms. Hasbro had put a stop to that a long time ago, which is why McDonalds Happy Meal toys haven't transformed for over 15 years. But they are letting Mattel release their version of G1 Optimus Prime as a 1/64 scale fully die-cast transforming toy within their Hotwheels line. This special figure will cost fans $80 though. Below are images and the product description.
Two of the biggest fandoms have come together for the first time with the Hot Wheels Transformers Optimus Prime. Modeled after his first appearance in Generation 1, this die-cast version of the Autobot leader can convert from a heavy-duty truck cab into a towering robot, ready to battle the Decepticons. We even designed the packaging so you could display it in either vehicle or robot mode.
Hot Wheels® Transformers™ Optimus Prime
Features: Attachable hands and ion blaster
Body Color: Spectraflame red and blue
Body Type: ZAMAC
Wheels: Custom Real Riders wheels
Base: Die-cast chassis
Window Color: Light smoke-tinted
Scale: 1:64

Notes from the live stream:
SS86 Core Steeljaw - Confirms the speaker does attach to Blaster.
SS Gamer Edition Deluxe Decepticon Trooper - Very heavily retooled from Barricade. Evan claims the green is game accurate despite how dark he looked in the game.
SS Bumblebee Movie Voyager Skywarp - Exactly what you would expect for a a repaint of Starscream, does feature a new head similar to Blitzwing's.
SS86 Leader Springer - New chest, head, shoulders and opening hands plus new accessories including the catapult missile from the beginning of the movie, his sword from his fight with Wreck-Gar and a Wrecker's hammer just because they had more room in the molds. Hidden blaster in his wrist.
SS86 Deluxe Bumblebee - A Level confirmed, showing up in July along with Transformers One Optimus Prime. Not a parts former. Gray windows because the hinges are unpaintable PA plastic, don't expect a blue window repaint later. Autobot symbol on the hood accurately "disappears" in bot mode thanks to the transformation.
Also Leader class Straxus for Comic Edition shown, heavily retooled from Kingdom Galvatron. Canon barrel can be pegged to his back or held. Teasing new character as fourth figure (we can see perhaps a pointed shoulder and yellow hand on the spine of the box).
Bayblades crossover shown, just tops with Transformers stickers on them. Two 2 packs: Optimus Prime and Megatron, Starscream and Optimus Primal.
Talked about upcoming album, pre-order on Pulse today, digital version September 17. Followed by a quick greeting from Stan Bush.
Another promotion for Robosen Megatron. Now comes with a collector coin, also announced that 40 random figures around the world will be signed by Frank Welker for orders placed before May 26.

Today's Hasbro Pulse livestream on YouTube was Studio Series heavy when it came to in hand reveals, but at the end of the stream during their Spacebridge portal reveals they gave us our first look at some long leaked figures making up Wave 4 of Legacy. Surprisingly instead of using random art they used the actual package art that will appear with the toys at the end of the year! We also got a few tidbits about what to expect from some of the figures:
Core Class Energon Galvatron (obvious Energon Megatron repaint)
Core Class unnamed purple and gray repaint of Bouldercrash
Deluxe Class Quake (appears to have two transforming Targetmaster partners ala Needlenose)
Deluxe Class Slipstream (Windblade retool)
Deluxe Class G1 Optimus Prime (based o the original toy!)
Voyager Class Metalhawk (toy colors, not a package refresh)
Voyager Class Animated Motormaster (Animated Optimus Prime retool)
Leader Class Soundwave (Netflix repaint) with three unnamed tapes they'll reveal later
Leader Class Armada Galvatron (Armada Megatron repaint as seen on Tidal Wave's box)

A lot of new Transformers One toys were revealed today. This line is bringing back a lot of gimmicks that a lot of their audience was not around for then. For instance, we have Botshots of Optimus and Megatron, which are the TRANSFORMERS ONE RACE CHANGERS 2-PACK and the TRANSFORMERS ONE RACE AND BLAST 2-PACK which is a throwback to the Deployer gimmick from Robots in Disguise (2015).
There are many more toys, some for very little kids, like a non converting Optimus figure that goes from "no cog" to "cog" mode and some that even collectors may like, such as the High Commander Quintesson figure which turns into an organic looking space ship. That Quintesson toy will be a Walmart exclusive. Actually all the toys below are exclusives to either Walmart or Target. Be sure to read the product description below the images to see which toys are exclusive to which store if you are interested. As these are for parents and younger kids, there may not be preorders for any of these.
