List the of Gimmick Class Names in Transformers One Movie Toyline Found

Ordered this and it shows an image of the Walmart Exclusive Blaster. Huh?

Amazon has a pretty bad habit of using the wrong images sometimes and taking an excessively long time to correct them. All of the information matches a new figure and not Blaster so it should be fine.

Some gimmicky toys can be very, very good.
I'm looking forward to what this line will offer.

Thanks for confirming!

OMG 'Race changers' has a terrible double meaning! No one mention 'blacking up'!

Hasbro and Paramount have been pretty good at keeping the bot designs for the upcoming Transformers One film a secret, revealing them to the world tomorrow. But we got at least this ONE leak before tomorrow’s trailer. It is a toy of Optimus Prime. We do know with certainty the line or size class but it dies give us our first good look at the design the film is going for.

Also, note that this is indeed Optimus Prime, Orion’s evolved look, which wont be how Orion looks like for most of the film.

Ah, the ol' guns-destined-to-be-stovepipes-on-Earth trick. Shades of The War Within design logic, well done.

So this wone will be a "warrior" class for sure.
Nice in both modes, but not alien enough.

I can see the WoF Optimus in the robot mode, and the vehicle mode is like a wall with lasers, I love it.

Nah, Deluxe at least. It's much too complex for Warrior, even just accounting for wrist articulation and ankle tilts. I can't quite work out how the arms end up at the bottom of the truck, either they drop down or the torso rotates over them. The inner lower legs flip around the back to end up on the outside in trick mode. With so much going on it makes the visible hands on the side of the truck unforgivable.

Studio series deluxe, apparently

Not bad, I dig it!

A SS deluxe with visible fists in truck mode.

Eh...

Looks decent, I like the aesthetic they are going for, even if I wish it was a little more alien in bot mode.

visible fists are becoming annoying though.

We got our first look at the upcoming Optimus Prime toy from Transformers One yesterday. While many fans liked the design, the toy’s hollow limbs, lack of paint, browning plastic, and simplicity (especially with those exposed arms in vehicle mode) made fans assume that this was not meant for the Studio Series line. Well turns out it is. This will be this year’s release of Transformers One Optimus Prime in a non gimmick line while all other Prime/Pax toys will be released in the Transformers One mainline, just targeting kids.

His studio series number is 112 and he is a deluxe. The box image also shows a great render.

First glance....wow. Great bot mode, nice alt mode.

My only bizarre beef is why he would have a cockpit. There is no need for one when you are driving yourself and can simply alter your body to create space somewhere for a passenger. My personal thought would be that the alt mode would not even really have a "front" as you could literally alter the mode to change direction on a whim by moving your wheels.

Man for SS this looks kinda bad and cheap looking quality.

Hypothetically we have a terrestrial bias to see a cockpit. All we actually see is a clear section across his chest that faces forward in vehicle mode. We don't know it's function - it could be a scanner or it could even just be aesthetic. Perhaps it is as meaningful as a man's nipples.

Agreed that the fists really shouldn't be visible on something like this, but lets be honest, aside from dropping the length of his torso and rotating 90°, what the hell do the arms even do for transformation?

Hiding the hands would have been easy if there was simply a cover built into his leg.

Judging by the art on the box it's a display case for the Matrix.

It looks interesting. Not completely different, but at least somewhat more alien.

He reminds me of War Within's robot mode for some reason.

The Truck mode is definitely beefy and armed up. In a better paint scheme it may looks really nice, but that off white yellowed bone gray is just award.

Interesting that he does not appear to have a gun. Just a blue axe, that for some reason reminds me of the one from Animated Cybertronian Optimus Prime.

Honestly, after seeing the trailer, I get why it looks like this and I'm cool with that.

My only complaint is that he doesn't have his ion blaster. I miss that.

Lots of Cybertronian altmodes have cockpits. This has been a thing since G1.

But, if you really, want an in-universe explanation for them, the Aligned backstory first given in the Exodus novel stated that the cockpits were a holdover from an earlier time back when the Quintessons had invaded and conquered Cybertron, during which time the cockpits were used by the Quints as part of their various methods to control and enslave the Cybertronians.

We've heard that the Quints may be the main villains of this movie, so it could be going with that for why their altmodes have cockpits.

This looks to be blunt, awful.

TFs have been so good in so many ways for a number of years. When stuff like this is shown and looks like an obvious backslide, I always wonder how long it will be before mainlines get crapped up permanently.

The backslide makes sense here though as a prequel.

Mainline toys look bad.

Alpha Trion is a Unicorn wolf thing, and his head has definite Death's head vibes for some reason.

The Bumblebee mask is, I'm pretty sure, just the previous movie mask.

The Mega Changers for Megatron and Starscream are also reused Titan Changer toys from the Authentics line.

Yup.

One guess as to what Megatron turns into in this movie.

Of note, he can brandish his unicorn horn as some kind of hand held weapon/sex-toy.

I love when Alpha Trion is a beast, and his toy there actually looks good.

I am also oddly engrossed by the Prime mask

Not bad. But the CG version rules.

Not judging alien robot's personal amusement choices here.

While I said I liked Prime and ordered it I can't help but feel something seems off. The hollow forearms just look cheap. This reminds me of the Rise of Cobra toy line that felt like a step back from the 25th era of GI Joe due to the lack of holsters. Also, I think there's some way to use the lasers from vehicle mode in robot mode.

Overcracker wrote:Alpha Trion is a Unicorn wolf thing, and his head has definite Death's head vibes for some reason.

It's the same unicron lion alt mode he had in Titans Return.

The Bumblebee mask is, I'm pretty sure, just the previous movie mask.

That Prime mask is definitely an unused one from ROTB, the face plate design is the same as from the movie.

So is TF:One Megatron based on the concept art Megatron toy from studio series or vice versa?

Rodimus Prime wrote:So is TF:One Megatron based on the concept art Megatron toy from studio series or vice versa?

Neither. That toy is based on a concept design that was created for a scene deleted from the Bumblebee movie, in which Megatron would have appeared with that design while in the custody of Sector Seven, frozen inside Hoover Dam.

But how? Wasn't the form he had in the 07 movie supposedly his Cybertronian form? And if he was frozen all that time he couldn't have changed.

The difference in Megatron's design is probably why the scene was cut. After all, they were G1-ing lotsa characters' designs in that movie.

But, if we want to think up a rationale, we could imagine that he arrived on Earth in his BB concept design body (which is also a Cybertronian design, not an Earth one), and that Sector Seven stripped his body of its outer panel components when they reverse-engineered technology from him, leaving him naked and resembling his 07 movie design. We could then say that the flashbacks seen in the first movie that showed him in his 07 movie design when Archibald Witwicky found him were simply retconned.

The directors of these films stated that Paramount does not care about establishing continuity among the films. It's basically a free for all and it doesn't matter if it makes no sense.

For those unaware, the Transformers One Toyline will also be split between Studio Series and its own main line and we can see how the toys differ between the lines since we have images of Optimus Prime from both lines. Interestingly enough, due to the deco, several fans are preferring the mainline deluxe version (called Prime Changers) than the Studio Series deluxe. The mainline deluxe is also $5 cheaper. You can see them below. We also see Alpha Trion who has a very similar deco to Botcon's Alpha Trizer, which itself was based on the cancelled Botcon Alpha Trion, making this toy come full circle. You can compare this deluxe to the original cancelled Botcon Alpha Trion deluxe as well.

The Studio Series toy is already available for preorder at collectible online retailers, like Entertainment Earth for instance https://www.entertainmentearth.com/prod ... me/hsg0221

I love that the main line Orion Pax can hide his arms better than the Studio Series version.

So do both Primes have a blast effect peg on the top of the axe & does that mean it's also a gun?

Crosscheck wrote:I love that the main line Orion Pax can hide his arms better than the Studio Series version.

The fact that it actually folds his hands away is a plus.
