With our gallery of Megatron yesterday, you could guess Optimus was right around the corner. Clicking on any image below will bring you to the full gallery of War for Cybertron: SIEGE Voyager Class Optimus Prime. This is only the second time we ever had a voyager class Optimus Prime representing his G1 self that had his own unique mold. With the previous one being Classics Optimus from twelve years ago, an update was in order and this toy happens to be the same size as that toy but far more accurate to the G1 Optimus robot mode we are familiar with, with better articulation, more details and more playability options. You will find images of the hover truck option, for instance, along with the different weaponry options.
This toy is scheduled for a release this month, to be sold as part of the 2018 holiday season. However, since it has yet to be spotted at a big box retailer, the final shelf price is still unknown.
With the new War for Cybertron: Siege line beginning to sprinkle its way to retail and with online listings coming in stock, it only seems appropriate that we give to you today the long awaited Seibertron.com gallery for the new War for Cybertron: Siege Voyager Class Megatron!
The new Megatron figure is a nice chunky voyager class figure that features his signature fusion cannon and a new sword weapon formed form part of his tank turret and barrel! The robot mode itself is a very nice representation of the classic Megatron design, and features a very nice headsculpt, nice details, good articulation, and some properly awesome weapons. Tank mode features a very chunky tank with a beautiful silver giant cannnon, with the turret and short part of the cannon formed from his arms and fusion cannon and the long part of the barrel formed from the sword, with the blades themselves tucking in underneath the turret.
Megatron, along with his wave mate Optimus Prime, are expected to be hitting retail very soon, and will be priced around $29.99 per figure.
Check out our gallery by clicking the link or any of the images shown off below, and let us know what you think of this latest incarnation of the feared Decepticon leader below!
Picking up from episodes 208 and 210, the Seibertron.com Twincast / Podcast's latest episode has host Scotty P joined by Jon 3.0 and Megatronus to continue with a long look at the "Super Car" era of Transformers Masterpiece toys. The next three cars are up, and some of the latest Transformers news is on our radar as well.
Things go backwards as can be as we start the episode with Bragging Rights. How could we dare to be stupid?
The BotBots are coming soon, and we share our initial impressions of this very different direction for Transformers toys.
Studio Series has a big slate of newly revealed products from various conventions around the world over the past several weeks. The cast takes a look at the upcoming products and what's good, bad, and ugly about the latest reveals.
Stay tuned to future episodes for more Masterpiece retrospectives, as well as a wrap-up on Lost Light which concludes this week.

We posted several in hand images yesterday along with a video review and have been getting several requests for more comparison images. It's understandable because since this is a new line, people are very curious about assessing scale, and thus need more comparisons to existing figures to know what scale the figures in this line will fit to. Also since most characters in this line are being done for a second (or third or fourth) time, comparisons may be needed to know if these toys can replace previous releases of these characters.
Below you will find images of Optimus Prime and Megatron compared to their toys in the Combiner Wars, Generation One, Titans Return, Masterpiece and Classics/United/Henkei toylines.
Let us know what you think and if you like the scale Hasbro chose for these two toys. And most of all, for those who only want one voyager Optimus or Megatron in their collection, is this worth replacing the one you have right now?
We have some more Seibertron.com content for you. While we have several in hand images showing us the variation in deco from figure to figure, we also have a video review for both Transformers War For Cybertron Siege voyagers Optimus Prime and Megatron. These are currently being shipped to distributors (and in turn retailers) and can be found at comic book stores right now and will be found at big box retailers soon. The video review includes a look at the figures in package, along with features, a critical review, and the transformation.
Also, we have from a private source the case breakdown of the first wave of Seige. Optimus Prime and Megatron are of course evenly split in a case and it is also evenly split for the deluxes (Hound, Sideswipe, Flywheels and Cog) and battlemasters (Blowpipe, Lionizer and Firedrive). However it is not an equal split for the Micromasters where the Decepticon Airstrike is two per case while Autobot Race Car Patrol and Autobot Battle Patrol are each three per case.
Enjoy the review below and please let us know if you spot any Siege toy at a big box store.
Seibertron.com has some nice exclusive content for you. We got our hands on Transformers War for Cybertron Siege voyagers Optimus Prime and Megatron. So below you will see several in hand images which also includes the back of the box, which we had not seen so far. Also, with these images you will see something quite interesting, the paint apps do differ from figure to figure. As you will see, none of the battle damage is consistent across the figures. The placement is but the thickness and amount will differ making each figure unique.
These toys are shipping from distributors/wholesalers so these toys should be out at retail soon. There have already been sightings in comic book stores in California and Texas, further proving that distributors, such as Diamond, have gotten their stock to ship to retailers.
The Seibertron.com Twincast / Podcast picks up with the revised and expanded edition of what you heard about in episode 208, as Scotty P and Megatronus dive head first into the "Super Car" era of Transformers Masterpiece toys. This is the first chapter of this focused retrospective, covering the first two molds of the era and their various repaints and retoolings.
Even the odder repaints get talked about, along with the appeal of such non-standard pieces and where they fit in collections. BAPE, the Evangelion Crossover, and the recent 7-11 Convoy all get a look. And what's all this about a trailer?
After an hour on the least car-like Autobot of the "Super Car" era, we finally move on to the toy that launched a revolution, MP-12 Lambor, more commonly known as Sideswipe.
The retooled follow-up MP-14 Red Alert comes next in the discussion, and even includes some inaccurate speculation on the face designs from yours truly - see if you can find where I'm wrong and post the evidence of why by replying to this post. The truth is out there.
8 versions of the Lamborghini Countach Masterpiece mold have been released in total, and we look at all of them, from TF Expo Lambor, to Diaclone-like Clampdown and Tigertrack, on to G2 Sideswipe, then wrapping up with a quick look at the recent "+" versions of Sideswipe and Red Alert.
We finish up with short bragging rights and leave the recording going into some tired rambling about not much at all.
Stay tuned to future episodes for more Masterpiece retrospectives, as well as focused talk on the IDW comics as they wrap up their continuity.

While there wasn't much in reveals for the Transformers Bumblebee toyline, we did get some rather interesting products. We get our first toy of Blitzwing which happens to be a tank and not a jet. It is a redeco of Megatron with a new head. We also get two toys of Shatter, one of her car mode and another of her jet mode. This is the first jet in the toyline. We also get Optimus who is surprisingly not a simple reaint of the Power Plus Optimus but actually a retool. The front of the cab and the robot mode head are an example of new parts. All these toys are part of the Power class which means they do not come with the energon igniter which is needed to make the gimmicks work and they were all on display at NYCC 2018. We have a gallery for these toys which also includes mroe shots of MPM Volkswagen Bumblebee, Entertainment Earth exclusive Drift (with mini dinobots), and the Bumblebee mask.
