New Images of Transformers Studio Series 2019 Wave 1 Figures

Everything look pretty good! appart Megatron. What a blocky mess.

Howcome every time I see that jet Prime, the configuration looks slightly different?

Jetfire looks to be just as messy on the underside as the original ROTF Leader figure and the combo isn't really much more accurate (also, way to forget the BFG again photographers!). But at least Jetfire's robot mode is cleaner. Face paint could use a bit of work though, too big a splash of silver.

Oh man, Megatron looks great! Can’t wait to pick him up. Kinda disappointed with Jetfire’s alt mode, I love the SR-71 and I understand that there’ll be some kibble with a figure like this, but his beard sticking out from the jet really doesn’t look good.

Edit: It’s hard to tell, but it looks like Clunker Bee’s hood/windshield assembly has a pin through it now! Glad they did fix it if they did, because SS Bee really is a great figure.

Might have to pick up that sideswipe, I always liked him in the films.

So far I'm really liking what this wave is going to be like. WWII Bee is probably going to end up being my Generations version of Bulkhead just because of the color and my lack of a Bulkhead for that display. But now I understand why Megs had his cloak in the movies. That face is ugly... Hope DNA Designs puts out a set for him with a better cloak and head mold, but if they don't I'm fine with using the stock head and covering it with the cloak

That face is supposed to be hideous, remember? It was like that in the movie, because he was recovering from Optimus blasting half his face off in the final battle of the last one

I like all these. Megatron's detail and sculpt work looks nice. Yeah he looks a bit blocky overall but not too much to put me off (unlike most of Siege where it's blocky and then just overly detailed for the sake of being overly detailed) and I like that head sculpt and the truck is nice. Overall I far prefer it over the 2011 voyager.

I think the bumper parts of Barricade's chest have been shown to tilt angled in other photos but they're straight here so hoping that's just been missed out by whomever transformed him.

Jetfire's jet mode does show whiskers for some reason but eh it's fine I guess, the robot mode is what I'm wanting though which is a huge improvement over the RotF figure.

Sideswipe is nice. Still would prefer it to be his roofed RotF car mode though.

Clunker Bee annoys me in that they STILL haven't painted his shoulders properly but hey that's fine I corrected it on my SS01 version anyways. Don't need this one.

Not massively fussed by WWII Bee if I'm honest. Probably one I'll get if I can find it cheaper than normal. I prefer the third party one that's based on the actual car he turns into in the movie.

Optimus just looks lovely but again will need Toyhax stickers and a bit of paint like I did with my first release.

I gotta admit I like that Megatron. He isn't much of an iconic Megatron in either robot or vehicle mode (design wise) but he is a fantastic villainous design. I think I will get him and use him as a different character. Love the Mad Max truck, the hood and Igor I'd a great touch!

I really like Megatron. While this design has very little to do with what I typically associate with a Megatron design in either mode, the design itself is fantastic with the mad max truck, the hood and the Igor. I am tempted to get him as a different character for mysteries:)

I can't wait to get these guys. Megs looks awesome, and I really look forward to combining Jetfire and Prime. Bonecrusher is a given cause he's my favorite movie con, and I have been looking forward to him so badly

So i picked up this guy on the way home from work today



Gonna come right out and say it: He is not very good. I think a majority of his problems would be solved if they did his muscle car form. This chopper mode, it just doesn't work. It's really fiddly and has a lot of clear plastic parts. and it's nowhere near dark blue enough. The arms don't looks really good, I'm not a fan of how wide his crotch is, and his posability is limited in ways I don't really like either.

To keep this coptor mode, he needed to be like 15-20% larger, have no clear plastic, and have some better arms. I really hope they do his muscle car form so we get that mode and give him some justice.

Thanks to TonTon Reviews on Youtube and a heads up from Seibertronian What's Crackin'?, we have a pair of nice video reviews for the upcoming Transformers Studio Series deluxe class Barricade and Sideswipe!

Starting with Barricade, we have a nice look at the figure that utilizes some of the transformation tricks his MPM self had, and we also see that his chest is mostly real car parts in robot mode, with only the center moving out of the way to allow for the angry chest slant. He is also unique in that he is a Barricade figure that ends up with the hood as the outside piece of his back complete with a bumper-butt.

Up next, we have a nice look at Sideswipe, based on his Dark of the Moon form. The toy switches back to having the movie accurate rear end of the car become the chest (something the Dark of the Moon deluxe did not do), and he comes with a pair of blasters and a fair of detachable swords that peg into his hands. He is also the first Sideswipe figure to actually have the sides of his chest (the rear fenders and tail lights) slant in in a movie accurate style.

Check out the reviews below, and let us know what you think in the comments section below!

:edit: Combined into one post.

I'm amazed at the rate these releases are coming at, really. Sometimes the wait between Generations figures feels like an age, yet these feel like a pretty steady beat.

Man, these look great, I cannot wait for these two, gold-bar though...
