New Renders for Tiny Turbo Changers from Transformers: The Last Knight Found in Canadian Sighting

Posted by william-james88 Apr 11, 2017 at 8:21am CDT 27,852 views
The Tiny Turbo Changers from Transformers: The Last Knight have been found at Vaughan Mills Toysrus in Ontario Canada for $3.99 by a Tyrannosaurus Rex from Cybertron.ca. That price is in Canadian dollars, they will be sold for $2.99 USD in the US.

What is really cool about this early sighting is that Tyrannosaurus Rex took images of the box the little baggies are in which have renders of all the toys. This is the first time we see these renders. As you can see, these small toys bring back many characters from all across the movie franchise.

Enjoy!

Those look like brilliant little figures! I was blown away by them at ToyFair, but they look even nicer now!
In the first image from Cybertron.ca, I couldn't help but notice that Tyrannosaurus Rex had Lucina from Fire Emblem as their profile picture, and that makes me smile even more. I know it's not relevant, but hey, little things please me, just like those Tiny Turbo Changers.

Do we know if the blind bags have any figure identification codes?

Not usually into the cutesy versions but if I see these for sale locally I may pick up a couple. I like that they have some previous movie characters like Sideswipe, Lockdown and Starscream

That made me smile too, I love Fire Emblem. :D

But back on topic, these little guys look like a lot of fun, might have to pick a couple up if I can. But still, other things have my priority... *cough*Leader Megs*coughcough* Either way, I'm kinda glad Hasbro's branched out the merchandise like this. It's a good way to bring in new fans.

There were a few characters missing from the Transformers: The Last Knight toyline, most notably Onslaught and Hot Rod. We knew the line would just last for a quarter or two, with a similar amount of waves as Age of Extinction and most toys were accounted for when comparing to the list of codenames we have had since the begining of the year. So where are those characters? Well, we had not accounted for Exclusives, which is how they will be released. The Transformers Peru Facebook page has a very blurry image of all the Toysrus Exclusive toys under the glyph decoder subline of Transformers The Last Knight. We see the previously revealed Deluxe Megatron, Voyager Nitro, Infernicus, Skullitron as well as, finally, Onslought and Hot Rod. The image is too blurry to confirm if these are retools of prevous toys, like AOE Lockdown or ROTF Long Haul (which is what Onslought's character model is based on). These are all Toysrus Exclusives and that seems to be worldwide, since this news does come from an international source. Let us know if this makes you happy and what you are hoping for!

Hot Rod's chest definitely reminds me of AOE Lockdown, but I'm not gonna jump to any conclusions. Don't recognize what Onslaught could be from.

That's where the similarities end, though.

Yeah, I'll give you those, now that I look at it more. I'd say he's probably a heavy retool.

it might not even be a retool. I was just saying who it could be if it was :)

And Nitro seems to be an original mold (although I think he is based on a leftover of the AOE line that never made it to production).

Though, the design that both Nitro and the KSI Boss are based on was originally a tutorial DVD design created by Josh Nizzi back in 2009. :-B

I'll be rather surprised if Hot Rod isn't a retool of or doesn't share parts with Bumblebee.

Onslaught is almost certainly a Long Haul retool, Hot Rod reminds me of Roadbuster from DOTM, maybe Nitro IS a Shockwave retool as well.

Comment by Noideaforaname Apr 11, 2017
If Onslaught's a Long Haul retool, his transformation would have to be totally different now. It's not impossible, but he'd have to be basically backwards and probably do a couple other odd tricks (I'm not sure where the actual crane come it)...

Heh, I remember seeing that on his site listed under, like, "Personal Projects" or something obviously separate from Transformers, back during DotM or something. It was a little surreal seeing it posted again as "new" when the Age of Extinction concept art first started making the rounds.

They've been in Norway for a while. It's pretty weird, really, because all the TLK Deluxe Class figures in wave 1 are here, (as well as all of the Legends/Legions from wave 1) but the only Voyager is Grimlock... Optimus is no-where to be seen. :-(

Strange seeing so many retools used strictly as exclusives, especially for key movie characters. Most likely these versions of Hotrod, Onslaught, and Nitro are repaints of figures that will be available in the main line. The rest, probably not. That's a pretty unusual thing for Hasbro to do.

As for Onslaught being a backwards Longhaul, don't forget that they're using that same trick with the new Drift being a backwards AOE Drift.
