You may remember we covered this from Toy Fair 2017 back in February that Sqweeks was going to be in the AllSpark Tech Assortment. Here is the description as a refresher for those that need it.

TRANSFORMERS: THE LAST KNIGHT ALLSPARK TECH Starter Pack Assortment
(Ages 6 years & up/Approx. Retail Price: $29.99/Available: Fall 2017)

In TRANSFORMERS: THE LAST KNIGHT, new evil rises for the fate of Earth. Thrust into the far reaches of space, OPTIMUS PRIME hurtles towards an enemy more fearsome than he has faced. The once incorruptible hero now contends with a force that could push him to his limits… With the TRANSFORMERS: THE LAST KNIGHT ALLSPARK TECH Starter Pack Assortment, fans can control the action with the ALLSPARK TECH cube. The pack includes one ALLSPARK TECH figure – insert the cube into the figure and watch and listen as it activates lights and more than 15 lights, sounds and phrases! This starter pack also comes with a USB charging cord, including what you need to launch into ALLSPARK TECH play. The Cube also powers additional ALLSPARK TECH figures. Choose from three iconic characters from the film including OPTIMUS PRIME, SHADOWSPARK OPTIMUS PRIME or SQWEEKS. Each sold separately. Available at most major retailers and on HasbroToyShop.com.

Autobot Roadburn wrote:Ok, so I found a Barricade tonight and snagged him since I'm impatiently waiting for wave 3 Bumblebee and MPM Optimus to get here - this is my biggest Transformers purchase regret in years. I don't know if this is a widespread issue with him but my copy's joints are ridiculously floppy to the point he can barely stand up and his chest doesn't even hold down well. The worst part is I really like how his robot mode looks in general (though I'd prefer the WAY cooler head design he actually had in the movie, I'd be tempted to tighten the joints myself in that case) but if he can't even stand on my shelf there's no point in having him. Sorry to all those that liked and recommended him but I'm returning him to Target tomorrow. What a mess.


It sounds like it might be an issue with yours in particular, unfortunately. My Barricade stands up fine with no issues. Now that I think about it, I don't think I've heard of this issue happening with Barricade before. Anyways, I'm sorry to hear that yours won't stand up at all. Hopefully you can get it replaced.

On an unrelated note, I managed to get a hold of Legion class Dragonstorm. It's a fun little figure.

I caved and bought one from a scalper on Amazon. The third-party seller at least got it to me reliably. Not happy with the amount I spent on it, but considering the serious distribution issues we've been seeing, I figured that I might as well snag it in case I never see it at a store at all.

You know, those 40$ deluxes exclusive to TrU? All sold out. Maybe because of the "Sale" that drove back the price at 30$, but still, all sold out.

Can't be scalpers at that price so, people really wanted them and were really willing to pay those prices...

:shock: Quite shocking...

Several fans were able to use that 10$ off price law since TRU never bothered printing new tags for that pricepoint (instead using green stickers sometimes, but that wasnt on all of them everywhere).

Its probably cool in a collection. Its bad nuf he don't transform, but then they make ya buy a starter pack to get him. I think if they sold cubes AND bots seperate, they'd sell more of both. I only paid $13.00 for the Regular Optimus Prime starter at Kmart with rewards online coupons (virtual). I do kinda want all the characters though so I guess I have to buy it dammit Hasbro lol

I just transformed my Scorn tonight, and I ran into a bummer of a problem. Some factory chimp put his arm on backwards! It wasn't hard to fix, but I could see someone else getting one like this. Sorry, no pix cause I got a Flintstones phone, but I posted about it here.

Thanks to our very own Chuckdawg1999, we have a new review for you today, this time for the Knight Armor Hound figure from Transformers: The Last Knight! Hound is a new mold that is simple in design but mainly designed for the knight armor gimmick, previously seen with Bumblebee, Optimus Prime, Grimlock, and Megatron. Check out Chuck's review below, and let us know what you think in the comments section below!

chuckdawg1999 wrote:Hound is the last figure of the Knight Armor subline, of the Turbo Changer subline, of The Last Knight movie line. Transformation is simple as is articulation as the focus is more or the "Armor" gimmick, be aware that the arms like to stick going back into robot mode from the missile truck. While not the best figure of the Knight Armor subline, it does stand out enough to be worth a pickup.

So I just watched a comparison view video of the Leader Class Optimus Prime transformer from Hasbro Vs Takara's premium repaint and resculpt of parts. Wow! The backpack is now the shield! That is a partsformer I can live with. However, I kinda want to wait to see what a Masterpiece would look like.. Seeing as how the MPM-04 is based loosely on the Leader Class movies 1-3, the Leader class from this movie line with Takara's modification could bode well for the future Masterpiece of Optimus Prime the Last Knight version! I'm actually excited again about collecting! Okay...

Let's be honest fellow G-1 generation fans, who grew up with the first series, like me Don't you have that similar giddy Xmas feeling about this movie franchise?. With Welker, and Cullen on voice over. I've kinda grown to love the Bayformer universe in addition to my beloved G-1..hard to admit. Took 10yrs.but I'll say it. I love bayformers, and especially movie 1-3 Optimus Prime!

I don't know. I still haven't watched anything past the first movie. No real desire to watch the others though I do have a handful of TLK figures. I only like them for the alt modes and consider the transformation as an added bonus.

Checked out my Walmart; no new TLK figures, yet. Nothing but just Titans Return shelfwarmers, Berserkers, Slashes, and Grimlocks (not even RID is linguring!). There's a shop called "Gamer's World" at the Water Tower Place close by to my college; think of it as a less neon and more hobby themed Hot Topic. There are a handful of action figures there (mainly those weird 3 3/4 inch Kenner esque figurines and some video game characters), which made me wonder as to why they haven't gone ahead and sold stuff like Marvel Legends or the Generations themed TFs, be it from the current lines (TLK, Titans) or the previous lines like Combiner Wars or AOE? I've check out some comic shops; those were far from where I live and I'm starting to get pretty upset that either I have to deal with stores aren't stocked before Christmas, or find nothing but a bajillion Funko Pops that take up space in small shops (even FYE sold AOE Deluxes there along with some Marvel Legends).

On the plus side, there are a few Targets close to me (by close, I mean located near where I used to live), and they're starting to have more items than the many Walmarts that are all tales of two halves. Hopefully, I can wait until XMas approaches so I can get them at lower prices since getting the Switch recently got me broke.

He is really cool! I'd say Dragonstorm is easily my favorite Legion class toy of this line. It's a real shame that they waited until Wave 3 before releasing it. You'd think they'd want to promote the mascot character for this movie the same way they did Grimlock in the AoE line by releasing his stuff first.

I haven't heard anything about Legion Hound aside from Chefatron's review. It didn't sound like he liked it, but I say see for yourself. Always best to form one's own opinion.

Also, I got Deluxe Strafe in the mail today. Haven't opened him yet, but I'd be more than happy to post comparison images with the AoE one if anyone's interested.

I love bayformers, and especially movie 1-3 Optimus Prime!

I'm not the right age to have grown up only on the G1 cartoon, but a couple G2 VHS tapes I got from a friend in my younger years did form a sizeable portion of my childhood Transformers consumption, so I'll chime in here with perhaps a somewhat unique viewpoint.

Looking back on the earlier Transformers movies I do appreciate them for what they are. The first movie especially was, all things considered, a fairly good adaptation of the 'bots we love onto the big screen (at least, now that we've seen where it can get to *COUGHLASTKNIGHTCOUGH*, it's definitely fairly good by comparison). The character designs weren't super-faithful to the old ones but they did look and feel like Transformers, and I'll agree with you that Optimus especially had a pretty great design. (That RoTF Leader Prime is still fantastic, even if the arms are a little janky by my unreasonably-high standards!)

Now here's where it gets interesting, though - my appreciation for the first three movies may well be somewhat steeped in nostalgia on top of any actual quality they may have had. I was eight when the first one came out (It was actually my first above-PG movie ever, I was a somewhat sheltered child :lol: ) and it left a real impact on me seeing my favorite 'bots up on the big screen, so naturally I'm going to hold it in high regard just on that childhood experience alone. For the next two, doing the math, I'd have been 10 and 12 - so still within that age bracket to feel nostalgic for them (even only 5 or so years down the line). So I guess, rather than simply calling back to my younger years, having the Bayverse movies be part of my younger years has given me that (somewhat guilty) appreciation for them that you describe.

(To stay on topic just a little bit: I don't think I need to say much about my thoughts on TLK other than to mention that after we saw it, my friend and I sat in my car for about 45 minutes and just screamed at the universe in general, but I'm still really liking a lot of the new toys for this line... those I can find anyway :BOOM: )

Since we're talking about nostalgia, all I can say is that wven though I first heard of Transformers by Cybertron, the first movie was what got me hooked into the franchise, and I love looking back at the days when I can pop in the original trilogy DVDs and have fun recreating scenes with my figures while watching Animated on TV with my younger brother. AOE and TLK were bitter sweet for me, but I can't help but feel warm towards the excitement of the return of the franchise after sort of drought past 2011 and before 2014 (even though there's the Universal ride that I STILL haven't gone to :-( ), and I will always have huge thanks to the Movie Autobots for kicking ass and making me into car collecting, Cybertron with its weird but charming animation, and Animated's Teen Titans/Ben 10 spunk for bringing me into the franchise.

Moving on with the TLK line, I've been looking up Voyager Megatron at walmart.com, and for 26.86, that's not a bad deal. Plus, with a coupon I got from Hasbro, I can get him for 10 dollars less! Question for anyone that has him: is there a way you can remove the head if there is an alternate headsculpt on the way by Dr. Wu and the like?

Absolutely, it's attached by a balljoint if memory serves ;)^ I'll check and confirm when I get home, but I can all but guarantee that you can pop the head off and replace it if you so desire (and if there's a replacement head with the right diameter balljoint-socket, of course).

We always like pictures :D

And I really wanted some legions because A) they are actually getting new molds and B) the legions work great with some larger figures, such as Crosshairs, Drift, and Hound riding my dinobots, Megatron to go with Infernocus, and Dragonstorm just looks awesome.

Just wish the original molds had been released first, instead of the repaints. Legions and deluxes were doomed with wave 1 (and voyagers too)

None, what we know now is all we'll get.



So it could be possible that a third party picks up that main villain and gives us a figure.. hopefully..Hmm..

Well, we will see.. I am still pissed at Hasbro for releasing such a cheap Optimus Prime for the TLK movie, and Takara had to re-engineer parts, and paint apps for a more accurate CALIBUR movie figure. Why Hasbro is going so cheap on things is beyond me, I mean, do they want to drive their adult high end market to only Takara Tomy and Chinese Third Party manufacturers? Come on Hasbro! :HEADHURTS:

Image

I want a Masterpiece of the Western Star Model Optimus Prime, but if I have to wait I'll get that Calibur version, it's just sooooo super sexy! I love it!

Taken from driftsedge.deviantart.com Drift Edge's DA page shows here that he has to even paint his Hasbro version of TLK Prime.

I mean Why? why can't Hasbro release the cheaper version for kids, okay I get that.. What happened to their policy back in the day when they did the premium versions with better paint apps? Does Takara Tomy only care about their Adult collectors??

The "Premium Series" versions were a one-time thing for the 2007 movie I'm afraid. No other movie had that in any shape or form. Besides, the Premier Editions only reflect the Generations-style molds used, nothing more. They're just as subject to paint and packaging budget as any other regular toy.

I'm actually kinda optimistic about that Wave 4 Deluxe assortment, honestly. The only three Deluxes I want from this line are Crosshairs, NuBee and Cogman, so if this wave comes through locally I won't need to worry about whether I missed any other waves or not :D . And of course, given the rate things are moving around here, it's quite possible that Wave 1 will be cleared out juuust in time for stores to restock with Wave 4 :lol:

Hmmm. I suppose it's just bottom line capitalism, anyways. I would love it if we could get a Hot Rod repaint in a more traditional style with flames. I just can't understand why for the life of me Hot Rod wasn't presented mostly red. With some yellow flames...in the movie, maybe the next final one will have him in that style.


I guess they didn't want to upstage Optimus Prime..or Cullen

I guess that's why Bumblebee is full-front and center on the packaging of his toys :lol:

Oh that's right! So, I just don't know why they decided to not do hot rod in his flame decor..I'd love to know the reason for that...my biggest question about the movie designs. The figure is actually quite nice.

After being spotted at Walmart in the US just a little while ago, these hotly anticipated figures have popped up in a Target in Perth! Unfortunately, we don't have a picture of the figures on the shelves or of a receipt, but it does provide some hope to Australian collectors that these figures are starting to appear at retail!

So, it's been a fair while since this I guess... but I finally found the two at a Target myself today! Just one of each and there wasn't even a price tag - which, naturally, meant that I forgot that TLK Voyagers are $59 at Target instead of the regular $50 and so I ended up spending an unplanned extra $20 at the register. Fun. Anyways, if it matters at all, that's some confirmation that these guys are indeed hitting Target - but if I could advise Australian hunters, hold out if you can, I don't doubt they'll be turning up at other less-stupidly-priced venues in the coming weeks.

I finally got in wave 3 Bumblebee today after ordering him off Amazon (for retail plus shipping, fortunately) and he's a bit of a mixed bag for me. The negatives were some loose pins/connection pegs in the ankles and loose hips. I fixed the hips with pieces of tissue for now but I'll have to buy Future floor polish for the feet. His leg armor is also a bit funky - it's got a nice build and form on the inside of his legs but it's a bit bare and almost concave on the outside. The gun arm is also tough to swap out so I won't be doing it much, I could easily see the connection joints bending from constant removal gradually. The positives are fantastic though - his head sculpt (and the rest of him, really) is fantastic and the chest design works great. He doesn't even have the small flaps above his shoulders like the Human Alliance and MP have. Plus he has the extra little wings of MPM-3 and his roof/hood/windshields fold into his back in a similar but simpler way. This guy was definitely worth the wait for me, far better than the AoE/TLK wave 1 version of the character. He's very likely going to be the definitive deluxe Bumblebee on my shelf next to Evasion Bee.

His head also has a great range of movement for cat hugging opportunities.

Is that AOE or TLK Optimus? Did you paint him?

I dont understand, the Takara TLK line is the exact same Last Knight toys as Hsbro in the same boxes with a takara sticker on them. Takara is giving the same toys as Hasbro for this line so they dont care either.

Look how proud they were of showing off their new BB (which is the same crummy redeco as Hasbro's)
