With wave 2 already hitting shelves in some places already, any ideas when we'll be seeing wave 3? I need that deluxe Bumblebee in my life!

Is it weird we still haven't seen all that many actual photos of it?

Yeah, we don't have any in-hand pictures of its robot mode, just renders and some vehicle mode pics from toy fair. I really want to see the robot mode because the renders make it look like the pieces on the side of his head are gray when they should be yellow. Figure looks fantastic regardless, though!

Yeah and the instruction sheet part that shows the nice chunky gun-arm alternate piece. I wanna see actual proper photos of this figure cos it looks so good from what we have seen so far.

I checked and in 2014 with AOE, we had the photos for wave 3 by mid May

In other news, Balt absolutely trashed steelbane; shame, this figure is quickly becoming the sixshot of tlk qc - or lack thereof - you know for $20+ I had hoped that the qc would be of a higher quality (actually that's a lie, I never thought hasbro would shell out extra money for any reason for us)

Let's face it, Slug's probably a better toy than Hot Rod would be if the cars in this line so far are any indication :-P

Ouch

Yeah, you're probably right, I still haven't gotten my barricade into alt mode, what a great investment of $20 on my part :roll:

To everybody who responded to my earlier post: y'all are the best. Thanks for helping me out with that and sharing your stories!

Anyways, to get back on track, that Voyager Scorn looks great! Unfortunately, I'm going to have to pass on it because of the space. Also, any word on when we're going to see the Legion class Wave 2? I already got a hold of Steelbane (who was the only Deluxe from that wave I wanted) but it seems odd that the Legions and Voyagers have yet to be seen.

IMO, the Knight look fantastic and I can forgive the derpyness of the wyvern mode. But the LOOSSE EVERYTHING is pretty much unforgivable. Even Titan Return Skullsmasher is red with shame. Especially for the 30$CAN + taxes asking price.

Oh, and just in case some don't know what a "Balt" is:

Not sure what you're talking about cos so far I only have one new car which is Barricade and I really like the figure and haven't had any issues with it at all.

Even though the toy has yet to come out, Transformers: The Last Knight Mega One-Step Turbo Changer Dragonstorm has already been listed for the Top 10 toys for the German toy market - as reported by the official website here! Check out the image, and cross your fumbling fingers for the figure to win, and keep on the odd tradition of these toys making it quite high in the rankings in previous years..!

"Transformers - The Last Knight" offers gigantic cinema action and this approximately 30 cm big Dragonstorm action figure is spectacular fun. The Mega 1-Step Turbo Changer Dragonstorm can be quickly changed from knight to three-headed dragon in just one step. It includes a series of exciting features such as flapping wings and more than 20 light & sound effects, inspired by the movie.

I'm looking forward to see in-hands images of Dragonstorm. To see his REAL colors. Nevertheless, the more I see him, the more I want him. Look very cool and fun.

this thing looks really disappointing. hopefully there will be better molds down the line that are not as clunky.

We have final product images that show what his colour will most probably look like, I hope that helps: https://www.seibertron.com/transformers ... mus/38206/

We have images of the back of two boxes of upcoming Transformers: The Last Knight Toys: Deluxe Bumblebee (new mold) and Voyager Scorn.
what is news here is that the cross sale on Scorn is none other than Voyager Nitro, who was not said to be part of the main line. You are free to guess what this could mean and be sure to share your thoughts on the forums!
These pictures also show us the complexities of the figures with the amount of steps, which is always fun. The images below were uploaded by 淘宝店变形金刚改造工厂 on Weibo. Enjoy!

Oh, man, those dino arms on his robot mode shoulder is a shame... reminds me of some of the worse Beast Wars figures' way of dealing with kibble. The deluxe didn't do this either so it's even more annoying.

Otherwise, he still looks bloody awesome!
