Thanks to several Seibertronians, we have news of potential further releases for the Netflix subline of War for Cybertron figures. From a thread on Google Groups, a Walmart employee by the screenname Zobovor was looking around in the computer and found listings for Deluxe figures from the Netflix line. These figures were listed at their own pricepoint and listing separate from regular Siege Deluxe figures. Take a look at the screenshot below.
So it seems that Bumblebee might finally make an appearance in a current toyline, after not having a Generations figure since Titans Return in 2016. Not only that, but we may be getting a figure of Deep Cover, a character first released by Ehobby in the early 2000s as a G1 Sideswipe recolor in a Diaclone color scheme.
Other possible figures include a Quintesson, Elita 1, Wheeljack, Red Alert, Barricade, and Impactor. As we don't have official confirmation of these figures, please take them with a grain of salt until we have news from Hasbro to share.
So what do you all make of these listings? Fo you think these figures will be new? Remolds? Recolors? Repaints? Feel free to speculate below, and stay tuned to Seibertron for all your Transformers news!

Hm... I kind of like Deep Cover's colors and think he could make a decent stand in for G2 Sideswipe if one doesn't want to get the Furestormers pack. Assuming of course that the new guy IS designed like that and not just a name reuse for a different character

Hey, the listing I clicked on took me to that post, and it was Google Groups.
I was out of collecting when the fandom was in its infancy on the 'Net, so that alt.toys.transformers doesn't have any nostalgia for me.

Would be nice if deepcover is a new mold so that an earthrise sideswipe can be less of a block. I'd pick barricade up if he's a mirage repaint even tho I really dislike the alt mode.
Not keen on er wheeljack so I'm doubting I'll be wanting a netflix repaint. Looks like their is a lot more I'll be interested in on the second netflix wave. I can't see myself needing another impactor unless it's vastly different though I'd prefer a non idw head version other the one I have.

I'm doubting that with siege only having a few figures with full cybertronian modes and netflix series being just repaints so far. I'll be happy if a Green Grapple/ehobby hauler shows up in netflix or selects. Wondering what/if any cardboard background comes with wave 2 deluxes

According to TFwiki, there are 10 pieces that makeup Teletraan 1, one in each deluxe. Wave 1 of Netflix is only five deluxes: Chromia, Hound, Sideswipe, Scrapface, and Decepticon Mirage. I'm guessing the next five will be in wave 2.blackeyedprime wrote:Wondering what/if any cardboard background comes with wave 2 deluxes

The thing that's really throwing me about that listing is that it's part of the Netflix line, and since that as far as we can tell is always redecoes/maybe retools, means we're getting some kind of Deluxe Cheetor in either Earthrise or Cyberverse's Deluxe line.

...Thinking about it more, given it seems Cheetor is kinda their Designated Beast Wars Ambassador character right now, not sure they'd want to make a car version right now.
Definitely not impossible, just not what I'm most expecting.

If anyone wants to verify the listing them selves, it’s as easy as downloading the Walmart mobile app and following these steps. It brings up all the same basic info that scanning it in store would, besides the SKU number if the listing is still locked.
Here’s also all the EANs for the rest of the rumored figures.

Elita-1: EAN # 5010993782161

Yes, we have a Leader Class Shockwave, BUT that may actually be for the Studio Series and not WFC (how does movie Shockwave size to Prime anyway?). This list is nowhere near a certainty, but educated guesses with firm bases.

...well this listing is legitimately the highlight of my day. I don't even like Cheetor that much compared to other Beast Wars characters, but I'd like to think any Beast Wars is good at this point. Maybe the hint that Hasbro was planning something for the BW anniversary next year is no longer that far-fetched sounding (but I'm not going to assume that like I want to, since I'll likely be disappointed).
Regardless of if this is a repaint of a mold we haven't seen yet or a Cybertronian mode pre-Earth repaint, I'm buying whatever this will be so they hopefully get the message to MAKE MORE.

Elita 1 huh? Using the Chromia mold too, I bet.
Hm. I think I'll pass. It's a bit tempting, but if I went that route I'd also have to get Siege Chromia. And, TBH, I'm not thrilled at that mold.

Elita-1 is interesting, but I really hope she's not a retool of Chromia. Most of the other fembots already look really similar, some variety would be nice.
As for Cheetor, this listing has me excited. But as credible as it is, there's a large part of me that'll only believe it when I see it.

Honestly, until the figure is released, I'm not getting my hopes up for Cheetor. I've seen some people speculating that it might be "Pre-Earth Cheetor" but really it's just Tigertracks and they needed to keep the trademark for Cheetor.
As hopeful as I am that they might do something next year for Beast Wars, I'm still skeptical, and if anything this listing actually makes me feel a little cynical because if it's a repaint of Sideswipe, they may call it quits there and say "We celebrated Beast Wars!" which I'd find more insulting than if they just didn't do anything.
Though, I am now curious as to why Cheetor. He was in Cyberverse, but I can't really imagine that they'd do Cheetor rather than either Megatron or Primal who are arguably more iconic and easy to sell because of the heads being similar to the G1 Megatron and Prime

As unlikely as it is, just because the Netflix line started as repaints doesn't mean it only has to contain repaints.

We know a good chunk of the cast but that doesn't inherently mean we know all of them, there were several characters present in the trailer that were not part of the voice cast announcement and vice-versa, Cliffjumper is in the show as announced in the voice cast list but there wasn't any sign of him in the trailer, Barricade is in the show but not in the voice cast list, this could mean that characters like him and Hound go unvoiced but who knows.
So characters like Deep Cover and Cheetor could very will be minor characters, cameos or spoiler related characters such as how the spoiler box set contains not only Ultra Magnus but Rung as well, the latter of which we do not see in either the cast announcement or the show trailer
Of course they could be toy line only characters.

The spoiler in that set isn't Rung. It's some Cybertronian text written on the inside of the box.Deadput wrote:So characters like Deep Cover and Cheetor could very will be minor characters, cameos or spoiler related characters such as how the spoiler box set contains not only Ultra Magnus but Rung as well, the latter of which we do not see in either the cast announcement or the show trailer

I didn't say that it was, but his presence in the box despite normal Rung not coming with Ultra Magnus probably means something right?

Whatever the case, Rung's inclusion was already given away by a product page for the set that revealed all of its contents except for the spoiler text and Magnus's charred deco.Deadput wrote:Sabrblade wrote:The spoiler in that set isn't Rung.

The only reason I even put Rung's name in spoilers was because of consideration for people who might of been avoiding the topic, it had nothing to do what was considered the actual spoilery contents of the box.
Just because something was given away in a product description (since descriptions can and will make mistakes at times) doesn't exactly mean it was meant to be given away.

Finally my Wal-Mart got the Spoiler box in along with Hotlink and Megatron. I was tempted to get one of them but I already have Magnus and the extras aren't worth spending the cash.

Fellow Seibertronian JT Prime found another listing on the Walmart app, this time for a deluxe Cheetor. According to the grouping it was found under, it would be within the Transformers Siege subline exclusive to Walmart for the Netflix show. There can always be an error of course, we'll keep you updated if we get more news.

I still think its a repaint or head retool of a car bot (or a Ravage or Lionizer repaint sold at a premium!), as I don't imagine him having a cheetah mode on Cybertron.

If Hasbro got cheeky and did a car mode:

Or

It's clearly labeled a deluxe so I doubt it would be a repainted battlemaster or cassette. A car mode? That I can see fairly easily. So if he's not an all-new mold, whose repaint could he be? We haven't seen the Siege Datsun mold in the Netflix line, right?

Honestly, Cheetor was the best possible redeco of the Animated Blurr mold considering it was based on TransTech Cheetor in the first
Here's what I'm hoping he's not: The 2008 mold hauled out of storage.
We haven't. But my money would be on the Sideswipe mold.Rodimus Prime wrote:It's clearly labeled a deluxe so I doubt it would be a repainted battlemaster or cassette. A car mode?

So long as it has cheetor's head sculpt I actually think he could pull off the datsun mold, but I think the sideswipe mold works too
But them I realized since cheetor is fast, it could be a yellow mirage

Cheetor can absolutely pull the Datsun body type if you remember his transformation (as the original Cheetor mold) is very much of that same type and shape, with the front/head as chest and kibble as flaring 'wings'. He even has the Prowl-esque headcrest.
Cheetor was basically the BW Datsun already!

I feel like once again we're going to have a single/ few Beast Wars characters supplanted into a new G1 continuity, because god forbid we get a line/series that isn't a G1 rehash.
But if this Cheetor had a vehicle mode opposed to a Beast Mode, I will admit that would awesome and a better way to stuff other continuity characters into G1.
