New Images of Upcoming Studio Series Figures Bumblebee, Soundwave, Megatron and Shockwave

I CANNOT wait for Bee, Soundwave, and Shockwave! Bee’s looking great (I do wish they had angled the wings back in the pictures though), these are probably the best pictures we have of Soundwave, and Shockwave looks like he walked right off of DOTM, I mean exactly like the CGI model.

I’m really hoping this wave gets here soon!

Is it me or do the wheels sticking out of Bumblebee's "door wings" look wonky? Still can't wait to pick up him and Megs so I can complete my 2007 movie set Soundwave & Shockwave are definitely on my wish-list!!!

Shockwave is amazing. I wrote before I didn't like the early render enough to replace my old, custom painted Voyager Shockwave. My main issue was the blocky torso & shoulders. But these new In-Hand images completely changed my mind, I don't see the blockiness I saw in the renders anymore. NOW it's a worthy replacement to the old mold.

Thanks to an update to the Transformers Weibo page we have new images of the upcoming Transformers Studio Series #52 Revenge of the Fallen three pack with Arcee, Elita-1, and Chromia! Included in the pictures is the 2009 release of the Mudflap and Skids Icecream truck for scale. Until we can get our hands on this unique and stylish three pack we'll have to keep ogling and imagining how many rubber bands and how much tape it will take to pull off your own triplet combiner fan mode. Will you be rounding up this team of the smallest Studio Series bots to date or is this an easy pass? Let us know in the forums and as always stay tuned to Seibertron for the ultimate in Transformers news!

What's the blue thing on Arcee's shoulder?

either an alternate part/misassembly or, their is a combined mode and hasbro has been lying to us the entire time. Probably the former... still want them to combine though.

Each of them (or at least Arcee and Chromia) come with a removable weapon/piece thing.

I think they look really good, I might just be getting them. I'm hoping Reprolabels makes some stickers for the symbols on the sides of the bikes.

EDIT: Chromia's accesory is the blue sword-looking piece, which you can see in the background of that picture, so I'm not sure what that is on Arcee's shoulder either

Bit off topic, but how does everyone rate Stinger? I managed to pick one up cheap and I feel thoroughly whelmed.

Are you talking about vehicle scale? Robot mode scale has actually been set with the Studio Series (actually I'm hearing that AoE onwards has figures that work with the scale).

He’s an average figure to me, nothing too special but nothing to hold him back either, and then there is the fact that he isn’t a major character, so he’s pretty much the equivalent of a glorified background character. But if you put him with a few of the KSI sentries, I get the feeling that he will pop out as a sort of vehicon general, so he has that going for him.
