Greetings Seibertronians! Thanks to a tweet by Super7, the officially licensed manufacturer of Transformers ReAction and Transformers Ultimates figures, we now know the next two waves of the Ultimates line, and it incudes a few surprises. Yes, we have already spoiled one of them in the post header.
To jog your memory:
Wave 1:
Ghost of Starscream
Optimus Prime
Bombshell
Banzai-tron
(All G1)
While the next two waves will be:
Wave 2:
Megatron
Grimlock (dino mode)
Bludgeon (pretender)
Tracks
(Again all G1 based)
Wave 3:
Tarn (IDW)
Megatron G2
Aligatorcon (G1)
Wreck-Gar (G1)
![Transformers News: Super7 Transformers Ultimates Wave 2 and 3 Revealed Including IDW Tarn!]( "Transformers News: Super7 Transformers Ultimates Wave 2 and 3 Revealed Including IDW Tarn!")
So yes, Tarn will be getting immortalised in plastic once again, allowing those who would like an official representation of him (if just non-transforming) on their shelves.
Will you be picking up any of these?

I'm looking forward Bludgeon. Hope he'll look nice and bad-ass.
High chances I'll be getting him.

Bludgeon I think would be interesting to see. Tarn once again getting a non-mainline, non-transforming figure... ![:(]( "Sad")

Bludgeon is going to be a must! He's the first Ultimates that could potentially fit with WFC figures. And considering all the stuff the Action Masters came with he could possibly come with his little inner robot form with limited articulation.

Stupid question, do the action master partners transform at all?

I don't think Needler does, but Razor-Sharp maybe. The originals' transformation wasn't much really, just an extension swinging out and the gun attached for the first wave including Banzai-tron, and swing out the head as a helmet for the EU wave including Bombshell.

I might pick one up since I am kinda interested. The picks we got to see so far are a bit disappointing though.
The Ultimates line in general seems to be kinda inkonsistent?
The MOTU stuff kinda look like the original Matty Collector Classics, the Thundercats seem to be in the same style.
The Conan ones look like they're trying to be realistic, but have weird muscles. The TMNT look like giant versions of the original toys just made more ugly.

Really pleased to see these lineup choices. A couple of them are a little boring, but that's ok if they're the hedges against bets like Tarn. Bludgeon and dino Grimlock being in a wave gives me late Marvel G1 vibes and I'm here for that. Ultimates seem like a fantastic place to do Pretender shells.
I hope Tracks is also an Action Master, but given Banzaitron and Bombshell have that specifically called out and he doesn't it seems highly unlikely.

For the TMNT line, they could only recreate the toy aesthetic since NECA has the rights to the animation look. As you said, some of those figures look ugly.

What is with Hasbro authorizing these non-transforming Tarns????!
Do they want 3rd party to continue eating their lunch? The irony is sick considering this was a character in comics who constantly ran through transformation cogs. And then there's the price for this line..... If some of you love it, fine, enjoy!
To me it feels like HasTak is painting themselves in the corner by releasing the same G1 characters from Seasons 1-3 over and over again, while I can name a good thirty characters that haven't seen any CHUG love in the past 15 years except for maybe that overpriced BotCon mess.
Other than that BW movie what else does Hasbro have in store fore retail two years from now? I mean other than 20 more OP's Bee's, Megatron's and Starcreams...

If rumours are correct, possibly UT based figures, which will please a lot of people.

From the description:
They don't mention Needler being able to connect to Bombshell, but it does have a peg on the underside and Bombshell has a peg hole on his back that Banzaitron doesn't have, pluss Needler seems to be segmented in the right spot. I'll be surprised if it can't connect.

Ended up pre-ordering Banzaitron, these don't come out until sometime between December and February 2022 so I've got time to save even if I think they're a bit over priced.

Banzai-Tron comes with his Action Master partner Razor-Sharp, and his Photon Neutralizer that combine to form his massive Semi-Automatic Gun!
