I like what I see very much... EXCEPT Bruticus' black head.

Looks good, but personally, I prefer the G1 deco on Superion.
Also...guys, look at the mold flash on Slingshot's shoulder...that looks like GPS
I think I know what is going on, Hasbro made him like that so that he'll inevitably crumble and they'll soon announce an exclusive G2 Alpha Bravo to replace him
I admit the bag of gold dust was funny, but this would be downright cruel

So I was on the wiki trying to see just how similar in colors G1 and G2 Fireflight are and they had a link to the Giant Purple Griffin page.
Now I want a Giant Purple Griffin retool of Skylynx. I'd settle for just a repaint. Either way I want one and I want one now. We need a toy of the Giant Purple Griffin and Skylynx would work pretty damn well as one.

Shame that's not a leader.
Although, it's neat that his gun mode is the size where most toys will be able to utilize him, which is probably why he got the shrinky dink treatment in the first place.
I'm not too crazy about all the apparent clear plastic on him. I realize the original had some, but not that much and it was mainly there to serve as part of his electronics gimmick.

We have more news from San Diego Comic Con 2015 via site owner Seibertron! During the Hasbro Breakfast Press event, attendees were given, for free four types of Pez sweet dispensers - you know, from way back when Pez dispensers were a thing! Check out some images from the gallery below.
In slightly more up to date news, we also have a full new gallery of Transformers Robots in Disguise products on display at the Hasbro booth, featuring the usual suspects... and Megatronus in his new Legion class incarnation, Optimus Prime and Bumblebee in their powered up modes, and a couple more interesting tidbots - check them out below, and click on any image for the full gallery!

Thanks again to Seibertron, live from San Diego Comic Con, we can bring you all the updates revealed at the Hasbro Transformers panel at the event - of which we already saw a glimpse with the Breakfast Press event and Preview Night stories. Read on below to see what's in store for giant transforming robot fans!
Stay tuned to Seibertron.com for presentation images arriving shortly, too!
Transformers Combiner Wars
Hasbro showed a general Combiner Wars trailer that used clips from Devastation game and IDW motion comics.
Combiner Wars idea originated with FOC Bruticus.
Devastator being released in DeNA Battle Tactics
Transformers Devastation to be released on October 6th, 2015.
Something starts to "cyberform" parts of Earth, humans don't like that, Autobots head to city to investigate cyberforming, points to Megatron. Hasbro stressed the importance of having character arc, Optimus Prime has emotional struggle in game, lots of easter eggs for fans!
Peter Cullen as Optimus, Frank Welker as Megatron, Greg Berger as Grimlock. Greg showed up on panel and did some Grimlock voices, too.
Combiner Wars Products
One pack sets .... COMBINER WARS SERIES PACK
G2 SUPERION - As we have already seen earlier.
G2 MENASOR
Victorion - Also seen earlier, right here.
Also revealed was Scattershot, who forms torso for Betatron - another name change from Hasbro, unfortunately.
Exclusives
Platinum Blaster and Perceptor set - Exclusive to Target
Platinum Trypticon - Exclusive to Target
Masterpiece Bluestreak - Exclusive to TRU
Masterpiece Starscream - Exclusive to TRU, available 10/1
No plans for Beast combiners yet, nor are there any for Dinobots.
And what about Deluxe Groove, you might ask? A clear, non-committal 'we'll see'.
Stay tuned to Seibertron.com for presentation images arriving shortly, too!

Whatever happened to Hasbro's MP Sideswipe that was announced two BotCons ago?

And in case a written summary isn't enough for you, Seibertron has also provided a full gallery of the presentation slides used by Hasbro on the Transformers panel at San Diego Comic Con 2015! Check out below a small sample, click on any of them to find the full gallery, and refer back to this post for the details in the specifics!

I think a lot of this news is cool, but not mind blowing. Scattershot is bad, I'm not ok with a low effort retool on that one.
Excellent news about the G1 reissue availability though. Would love more detail on MP Starscream's deco.
Finally, after this panel, I really do now think the "Titan Wars" backdrop seen at Botcon was a massive screw up on someone's part, and it wasn't supposed to be seen yet, or even worse, was leftover from a canceled concept.

Presumably vaporware at this point. Speculation: perhaps a licensing issue?Sabrblade wrote:Whatever happened to Hasbro's MP Sideswipe that was announced two BotCons ago?

It's a shame that nothing was said about Titan Wars, not even a silhouette of an upcoming figure. All they've revealed are three box-sets of bad-looking repaints and one bad-looking retool. It looks like Hasbro really did reveal all the good stuff at BotCon...

While it's awesome that Generation 2 Combiners sets are happening, it's not for me. More money saved for Bruticus!
Computron's happening! Just... not the way I envisioned it. With the overall theme of the line is massive retoolings, kinda expected Scattorshot to be a Silverbolt retool, but... did they not retool Superion's head to better match Computron's? Really? Also, I totally get not having the name to a character anymore and having to give them a different name, but surely they could've done better than "Betatron"?
Also, no Technobot limbs? Surely they're being made as well? If not... incredibly massive missed opportunity.
Masterpiece Starscream, yay! I'd be more excited for this had I not already gotten the Hasbro Asia release exactly a year ago.
Is there any confirmation about him coming with coronation gear?
As I said in Victorion's thread, I'm kinda into her, but not really. I'm going to get her, but it's going to be for that kickass sword for this custom idea I have, and as a display buddy for Windblade.
And with that said... what ever happened to Titan Wars?
That's what I want to know!
