The Hasbro brand panel has just ended.

Firstly, while not directly Transformers related, Hasbro is bringing GI Joe back. There will be some new 6 inch figures coming out soon with Roadblock, Scarlet, Duke and Snake Eyes.

Now Transformers!

The panel is introduced by Gregg Berger as Grimlock (and as himself).

Netflix Series

We see a sneak peek at the Netflix War for Cybertron trilogy from Rooster Teeth.

It is three parts and Siege takes place in the final hours of the Cybertronian civil war. This will be a military story, with incredible stakes and the bonds that form on the battlefield.

We see stills from the show where we can see Elita One and Bumblebee.
The character designs are taken from the CAD data of the toys, including their transformation.

The trailer is shown. We see Ultra Magnus, Optimus, basically everyone from the Siege line. They look the same as the Siege toys, as told. The animation does not seem as slow as the previous web series but still not smooth either.

We see the Siege rereleases in new decos that we saw earlier today. All will be sold at Walmart.

The Mirage we saw is a Deception disguise

Each figure comes with a piece of Teletran One and you have to collect all 10 figures to build it.

IDW

The new series will get to number 25 and Orion will finally be called Optimus Prime

Earthrise

This is about the journey to earth. A "story" never told before.

Most of the toys we saw in the leaks of the past 2 days are shown now.

Runumuk is shown first and Runabout will be revealed later this year.

Snapderagon and Double Dealer are part of the mercenaries fraction.

We do see Snapgradon's Kaiju mode. Doubledealer turns into a modular base as well.

3 Quintessons revealed.

The Judge which can switch faces with a switch in the back. Comes with a throne which becomes a battle station. The whole figure becomes a playset. A micromaster can go inside the little cage.

Alicon is there and we see Slither Fang who is a cobra that turns into a shield and modular ramp.

Sky Lynx is shown. Has all his 4 modes plus a 5th mode as a bade and the NASA logo is on the shuttle mode. The shuttle is called "the magnificence"

Scorponok is shown, he will be in scale with Fort Max. Great poseability and double headmaster. G1 base will connect to Omega Supreme and all the other modulars from Earthrise.

Generations Selects

This niche ecomm line was a success. There is a 4 pack cassette pack which will complete your cassettes and also give you Doubledealer's aprtners. Warden confirms the blue cassette is Frenzy.

Studio Series

ROTF Soundwave with satelite mode

Topspin

Cliffjumper with a nice cybertronian mode

Dammit, meant something else, thanks for the catch

No worries, you had me scared there for a moment. Comic book fans would no doubt be elated, but I'd be pretty disappointed.

10 wfc netflix figures or should it be 8? Guessing optimus and some one else autobot voyager? will be in the Netflix releases but it's strange they haven't shown up in the listings. Thd white packaging is kind of neat but nothing that shows the BAF pieces on the front of them.

Was really hoping for confirmation that Spy Patrol Unit 2 would get rereleased being possibly the rarest release in Siege. I've never seen one in stores and you can't buy them online outside of eBay.

Emerje

I have really high hopes for Cyberverse Thunderhowl and Iaconus. Probably the only Cyberverse guys that I’m going to get. As for Studio Series, only Sentinel and ROTF Soundwave appeal to me. Earthrise looks to be interesting, but man, am I looking forward to that Siege show.

If ever I see it, want me to get it for you? Would end up being about $20-25 USD shipped since it's international shipping.

We have images from the Hasbro Brand panel that was held at Toy Fair earlier today. After those images you can also see what was being discussed during the Transformers panel.

But before that, we also have some extra nuggets from Toy Fair. Below is an image of the upcoming retro handhelds from Hasbro as well as the trading cards on site. You can see more images of such here.

Order now for a September release seems way too far away.

Or you could see it as:

Order now so you don't have to hunt for toys you'll never find in September.

Sold out. Was the cassette set a Pulse Exclusive or just a Pulse first? How mad should I be that I had to work?

Not mad at all, you can get it on entertainment earth for 19.99

Below are the videos Seibertron took of the show floor at the 2020 Toy Fair. They do show some things we did not see before. For instance, we see that Doubledealer has a chest compartment, similar to Soundwave. It is demonstrated in the Earthrise video on Seibertron.com's Youtube channel, toward the end of the video.

All the videos can be found below and you can see all the galleries for the event here.

Transformers War For Cybertron Earthrise

The TF reveals were absolutely amazing...

I don't want Earthrise to end!!!!

So Doubledealer has panels that flip up on his shoulders to change factions but the con symbol underneath looks like it spins like on Jetfire so I wonder if it shows the Mercenary symbol too??

Dannshinigami wrote:So Doubledealer has panels that flip up on his shoulders to change factions but the con symbol underneath looks like it spins like on Jetfire so I wonder if it shows the Mercenary symbol too??

Only if all thevmercs were part of the same merc group then they might have one. The mercs are all lone operators out for themselves for the most part so there is no need for a unified symbol on them.

But there is a symbol for them, Warden said in the live stream that he is in the Mercenary faction as is Snapdragon apparently

Heres the photo with faction symbol

That doesn't mean they need the symbol on them. No point in them having a generic symbol on them if they are or are not in same X company. Just like gangs, they may be in a gang but they would fly their own gangs colors rather than a generic symbol. Hasbro may dumb it down (like decepticon Unicron or autobot stickers on junkticons) to show alliances/play structure.

Hasbro has provided vibrant versions of their renders for all the toys revealed at Toyfair over the week-end on their Facebook page.

These regroup the robot mode and alt mode(s) in one picture. This serves as a reminder of all the new toys revealed. I myself cannot remember so many reveals all at once. We can see reveals for four lines, those being Cyberverse, Netflix Transformers series, Earthrise and Studio Series. Looking at all this, I can't think back to a better Toy Fair. The ones that stand out to me are Studio Series Blitzwing, Netflix Series Megatron box (with Pinpointer and an orange Lioniser), Thunderhowl and Scorponok, just to name one from each line. How about you?

So, I guess Smokescreen's new number is 80. Did anyone at the toyfair inquire as to why they changed it from 38? The toy still looks awesome. I'm just curious.

Think skylynx was my highlight. Makes up for not having electronics and doesn't need any add ons to make it the perfect figure tho it's not on my buy straight away list.

As for the netflix, actual battle damage on battle damaged figures is nice and the extra paint apps. I'd hesitantly give it to mirage despite not liking vehicle mode for being something newish compared to the others.

Cyberverse, not feeling the love for barfing bear (despite it being new n fresh whilst kind of bay knight ish) or cos play megs/Starscream so arcee would get my vote, kind of animated and at least its not as tho she has been in Cyberverse figures before.

Studio series, overlord. Painted windows and lack of paint aside on vehicle it looks like robot mode hands it the win.

Botbots...ok I blinked and it is series 5 already. I don't have time to look or think about the mass multitudes of joy available from them. If they are classed as transformer figures owned for the world record, anyone who has an up to date collection is a contender.

SWEET! A Chromia repaint to help collect dust with the original Chromias no one bought!

Outside of the WFC figures, Thunderhowl looks the most interesting (and fun) to me. He’ll likely be my second Cyberverse purchase.

Brokebot wrote:SWEET! A Chromia repaint to help collect dust with the original Chromias no one bought!

I got one

I didn’t realize snapdragon was a leader class? Is this a typo?

Wait... Snapdragon and Double Dealer are leader class? Is that correct? I assumed they would be Voyagers.

Doubledealer is Leader Class and Snapdragon should be Voyager according to leaked Walmart listings.

Yeah they seem to have accidentally given snapdragon the wrong size class

I'll be the first one to say that it's not a great mold. But the fact that we GOT a Chromia that's her own mold, and that more than superficially resembles her G1 cartoon altmode... I'm glad. Plus, with her accessories, she can build a badass sniper rifle.

I got one as well. Even with the shellforming, the improved resemblance to her cartoon altmode compared to T30 Chromia made her a SHUT UP AND TAKE MY MONEY figure for me.

People have been comparing Earthrise Megatron to Siege and I have to say, I think the Earthrise one is terrible. I'm not a fan of seige, but man this one is worse. The cannon/Sword for tank mode. Are they even trying?

I do like the blue "lipstick" on cyberverse Arcee. I have to say the disappointing thing about the first Arcee release at least the hasbro version was that her lips weren't painted. It looks weird to me, especially next to the Takara version.
At the price point, I would hope the Ulta Magnus is the siege version and that the 7 inches is the cab robot version and not the combined version.

They are. I saw a shot of him holding the weapon in his hand as a spear, which makes it look a lot better.

All my earlier opinions hold true, except I might get SS Cliff to serve as my evergreen version.

I'm curious, but I can't see that being much better.Where did you find the image?

With Scorpinok, we now have all the G1 Titans. I wonder what they will do next year?
Maybe a Fort max with a decent G1 base mode?

Also going to get Hotlink.

Tidal wave, g1 style metroplex, insecticon - all 3 of em, ultra magnus, Unicron, metro titan, blue omega, or the micromasters base guy, rolling thunder optimus prime for new gi Joe figures.

They may be done with titan class in all fairness other than black zarak as none of the possibilities seem likely.

1. It's Scorponok. Try to do better than the editors of Energon.

2. A reissue of Metroplex because ow those eBay prices.

I'm still down for Metrotitan and Black Zarak for next year. Hope they can make it happen.


As for the reveals, I am hella bummed there is so much black on Hotlink. I would really rather him be solid color like the show. I will definitely have to customize him to get him more in line.

I got two as well. I often double-dip on fembots for custom fodder (and got a LOT of the masked RID Windblade on clearance for a female Seeker squadron), but I wouldn't mind the Netflix one too, since one of those Chromias will likely be permanently combined with Dazzlestrike to serve as Orthia's forgin' hammer, uniting her with Elita's resistance cell.

Sideswipe and Chromia look even worse. :/

A Giant Cosmos, so Blaster can ride inside him. MAKE IT HAPPEN

Maybe they'll make a newer titan, like Croaton, or an entirely new character? It's not like any of the other titans are household names, I can't imagine a new edition would make a difference to kids. And there is a demand for new characters, which Ironworks and Airwave prove is not entirely out of the question. A new titan wold appeal to almost all audiences.




But c'mon, a giant Cosmos would be hilarious.

The only things less likely than a giant Cosmos are:
* A 100% show-accurate Thunderblast
* A 100% film-accurate ROTF Devastator
* Dickbot the Blender Guy

If they follow relative trend, we should be due a Combiner or multipack. Monstructor? Raiden? (not as likely to me with the upcoming MP) Maybe the 5 set of larger Dinobot figures people wanted?

What's this about an upcoming MP Raiden O.O?

Monstructor is certainly a possibility - the groundwork's been partially laid for him.
Who knows, maybe we'll get a better Liokaiser.

Wild theory: what if Snapdragon really is leader class?

If the Hasbro display at the convention confirmed him to be voyager, then please disregard. But, if we're going by a listing on a website, it could be wrong just the same as the render on the previous page.

My only faint, circumstantial evidence is the head. It doesn't seem to be showing the white helmet in the little guy's robot mode, but it's on there in Snapdragon's robot mode. It looks like it gets put on there after the head plugs in, much like TR Overlord did, making the head bigger than a voyager's head, and that figure was leader class.

Again, if it's been confirmed to be voyager in any official way, forget I mentioned anything. But just because Apeface and Snapdragon are in the same group, they don't have to be the same size.

Just wild speculation on my part.
