First Look at ROTB Scorponok toy Alt Mode + Japan Exclusive Toy Promotion

Posted by william-james88 Mar 22, 2023 at 11:44pm CDT 43,296 views
We have even more Transformers Rise of the Beasts toy news coming from Japan. Firstly, the Scorponok target master two pack will be exclusive to Toysrus there, which makes sense as it is a Target exclusive in the US. This official reveal from Takara shows us the alt mode, something we didn't get from Hasbro. We see the bot's Scorpion mode and we see the weapon mode of the scorpion target master.

Also, a big product launch for a toyline in Japan means a new campaign with an exclusive repaint. For these toys, Takara is doing a promotion where they will give away a red clear repaint of the Firedrive target master figure, called "Burning Plasma Blaster", to customers who purchase 5,000 yen (tax included) or more of "Transformers Beast Awakening" related products in store.

I'm not sure what, but my PO on Amazon for the basic toys have pushed up to the end of the month.

The playability of this kids-focus line is pretty good! Some even surpass the Deluxe/Studio Series versions in screen accuracy (Bee, Nightbird).

Most of these looks very good.
I especially like the beast targetmasters.

The only thing that I don't like is that Cheetor who wear shorts in both mode. This look dumb.

Oh and those "one step" Bee and Nightbird are genius! Sure, the vehicle look damaged, but the bots are awesome for what they are.

Ok that Airazor looks good, might be nice to see it retooled into a Beast Wars Airazor as it looks even nicer than the Kingdom mold

I want it retooled (or at least give that transformation) to Terrorsaur. I really love the idea of having nice wings dissapear in robot mode, he needs that.

The beast Targetmasters are uniformly great. Too bad they're bundled into the kids-line figures (which is pretty good tbh, but not for myself) I'd get all of them if they're sold as Core price 2-packs.


And poor Scourge. He got the short end of the design stick, his whole lower-half is OP's.

Cheetor, Rhinox and the crocodile target master are sold individually at least.

i am completely obsessed with the new beast mode Target/Battle Masters, getting all of them hands down. it really helps to that the weapon modes are so weirdly good and nicely detailed?

That Scorponok looks real nice, I am excited for that one.

I am excited for a lot of these, it looks like we are going to have some fun toys to mess with

Indeed, that Scorpy is a must have.

I'll be getting the Prime and Primal Weaponizer 2-Packs tomorrow. Who's ready for a ROTB party?

I need to figure out how to get my hands on that "Burning Plasma Blaster". Maybe Mandarake will end up with a bunch of them...

Also love that the Scorpion Battle Master has 5mm holes in his claws.

Am I the only one who thought this Scourge was Wreck-Gar? Giving me serious Animated Wreck-Gar vibes.

You mean the big "smash n change" who have the same frame as the Optimus?

Yeah, I can see it.

We have reports of several toys from the Transformers Rise of the Beasts main toyline being found or now in the hands of US fans.

From our own Seibertronian, Ig89ninja, we have reports of the Beast Alliance Beast Combiners found at their local Target. Those include Bumblebee & Snarlsaber, Arcee & Silverfang and Optimus Primal & Skullcruncher, they are $21.99. We also have in hand images from TF Fan Sponge who found them at a Target in Texas and also provided the receipt with DCPI. We see through their images that the armours are interchangeable with the robots.

Ig89ninja also found the Target exclusive 3 pack that includes deluxe Nightbird, Cheetor and Wheeljack. So great news for fans of that design. That 3 pack is $59.99.

Lastly, the Optimus primal and Optimus Prime Beast Alliance Beast Weaponizers 2-Packs have come in from Amazon.com and been delievered to US fans. They were $14.94 and we have a review for Optimus Primal with Arrowstripe.
