This comes from fellow Seibertronian Gotbot who posts on youtube. He had another listing, Transformers Generations Holiday Prime, though that is not a movie listing.
As for more ROTB news, we have a new product to show you. it is part of the mainline for kids, a transforming mask. It is a mask of Optimus Primal's beast mode which turns into Optimus Primal's robot mode. We again see the new Maximal symbol used for the upcoming movie and we know this is a real product since we have the instructions next to it. There will be similar masks for other characters like Bumblebee, here is the vendor listing for them:
2-In-1 Mask – $34.99 USD
These toys are out there and we are bound to get more and more news regarding them one way or another.
You'll let us know what you think.

Wonder who gave him THAT idea (cough MEGATRON cough)
Don't know if it was intentional, but that's a nice little Beast Machines nod...

Or it's actually Under-3 as a gorilla head instead. He does look a lot like Primal in bot mode.

If these were around when I was a kid I sure wouldn't need Halloween as an excuse to wear them.

Also, haloween costumes in general tend to be the robot and not the alt mode.

Voyager priced, leader priced, or something in between?

The actual SS figures may still look nice though.

I dunno, I think the idea of dressing up as a robot gorilla to be just as fun as dressing up as a robot that turns into a gorilla!

'You wore a Primal mask, didnt you?'
'Ook'
Looks neat will be cool to see if and what other characters get done in this style.

I suppose its redeemable feature is that it doesn't cost as much as TT/Casio's Optimus/Nemesis "watch mount"...
I have a suspicion though that this toy will be KO'd up the wazoo.
Anyway, be Hasbro, please listen carefully to us fans the next time we say we want "Transformable M.A.S.K toys linked to the expanded TF universe"...

It's probably been tested to make sure that doesn't happen. They won't voluntary release something that would cause them to be sued.

1. I'm pretty sure those feet are supposed to swivel down to the chin. There's even slots there for the tabs on the foot posts.
2. Primal is going to be seeing into your mind every time you wear that. Feel those eyes burning into your skull.... while he flexes.

I thought the same as you with the leg posts, then I realised they were there for bot mode as those panels are his shins in robot form.

You might be right. Those tabs may be for robot mode.
The only other place they can go is up into the nose. A bit uncomfortable if you ask me.

Ordinary things that turn into robots? From the top of my head I can give you the Real Gear Robots, exclusive Movie DVD cases that turn into Optimus Prime and Bumblebee, and those Target gift cards that transform.

No, not that. "Ordinary things that turn into bots" have been done since transforming robots began in the late 1970's.
I'm asking about the wearable mask altmode, obviously.

You would think so but mistakes happen (Gives my sister the side-eye). Besides, there's no way that QC will make sure every mask is safe and all it takes is one. Don't worry though, I can't wait to get my hands on this.

I can see that this could be painful to wear, and I'm hoping would check it to make sure it is safe for children. It probably won't be comfortable though, It doesn't even have any inner lining.
