For those who did not watch the show, we will reveal the biggest spoiler of the series before moving on, so you have been warned.

The infamous $50 Walmart exclusive Spoiler Pack had the words "spoilers inside" that referred to the Netflix series we had not seen yet and Hasbro had advised we only open it after watching the Netflix show. Now I see that the advice was sound. Not because it meant that we would spoil ourselves (which is probably what they meant) but because it would only make sense once we watched the show.

In the show, Ultra Magnus dies. It is a rather brutal death at the hands of Megatron and is what makes Jetfire switch sides.

Now that we know this, the toy's deco makes much more sense. For those who do not have the spoiler pack Ultra Magnus, the toy is made up of a lot of grey plastic with colour sprayed on. Many found the deco underwhelming as it didn't really look like battle damage. That's because it is not. It is Ultra Magnus having just been killed and his colour fading, making him become grey, just as Prime did in the original 86 film. Below is an image of the toy and you will see how that interpretation makes far more sense than anything else. The inclusion of rung, along with that pink colour scheme remains unexplained.

This seems very 2020, first a dead leader OP and now a dead leader UM.

The inclusion of Rung in the spoiler pack just hit me.

He's the Alpha Trion protocols, or more specifically he's holographic representation of Alpha Trion bumblebee sees with the protocols.

It's really the only thing that makes sense, as Rung couldn't be anything else that I can think of.

Of course, I think killing Ultra Magnus is the worst thing about the show, but they also killed Skywarp. While Ultra Magnus will live on on my shelf (that's what head canon is for), I just find some of the choices strange. Oddly, not Ultra Magnus so much, but definitely Skywarp.

Anyway, I enjoyed it overall. I did get to make a joke out of the spoiler, though. I knew what it was, but didn't tell.

The next spoiler pack should maybe get a little more credit once it hits.

Skywarp's death was so off screen I honestly wonder if one of the sequel shows are going to pull some sort of "Ah ha I Skywarp actually survived!" type of deal, maybe one that somehow leads to him getting teleportation powers (I don't think we saw him use them in the show so he might not have them) via Shockwave experiment or some other means.

Probably unlikely but hey the option's open unlike uh...Ultra Magnus he's kinda dead for sure, when his body started glowing I was honestly expecting him to survive or come out in the white Prime body. I think UM's death was executed well, a tad strange to kill him off but they might pull an IDW if needed and have someone else take up the role of Ultra Magnus if Kingdom ends up taking a 1986 route, probably not but anything could happen.


Spoiler Pack Rung represents Alpha Trion and/or the protocols, the AT in the show shares quite a few elements with Siege Rung's design, although now I question why the pack doesn't just contain Alpha Trion directly, maybe budget or they didn't want to be too spoilerish.

When I first read the spoiler inside the box, I thought it had to be a red herring. I thought there was no way they'd kill off Ultra Magnus so early into the story because that would be stupid! Boy, do I wish I had been right...

Guessing the other spoilers pack is shockwave. Wonder if he’ll come with a stand/tubing to wire up UM’s chest parts.....

Because big name characters should never die because their big name characters.

There isn't a reason Ultra Magnus should of lived for longer besides "I wanted him to"

It wasn't a stupid random death with no purpose like Moonracer (that was an actual terrible death), it was a death scene with a purpose and it had consequences, this wasn't a random "shock factor" death just for the sake of it.

If there is only a few things the show got right this was one of them, same with Impactor's death.


It's really the only thing that makes sense, as Rung couldn't be anything else that I can think of.[/quote]

I agree. There was actually a set up to that death and consequences to it, it was defnitely an integral part to the story they want to tell and not just there for shock value.

My other two guesses regarding the second pack is either Soundblaster (maybe along with a repainted Impactor as one of his goons) or it might be something regarding Earthrise.

Given the name "Giza" on the box, there's a lot of speculation it could be a leader Nemesis Prime from either leader Optimus mold. It could definitely be a spoiler for chapter 2. Personally, I think a Galaxy Upgrade Nemesis Prime would be amazing!

I'm glad I got this Ultra Magnus instead of the other. So much for getting an Earthrise version though.

And poor Moonracer....

Given that rung in the comics was Primus, and his translucent color scheme, maybe he was meant to represent the alpha trion protocol. Ghost trion? I think though this fully kills the rumors that the next spoiler pack is somehow another ultra Magnus. That and the only other leader toys in the show were shockwave and astrotrain.

Well considering that the spoiler pack has a direct connection to the events of the show, at least they did in the case of Magnus, we need to figure out who else had a significant change in the show to warrant another variant of their figure to be released.

Personally, event though it has nothing to do with the show, I would love a white and purple version of Astrotrain, I might buy him even with the useless extra crap, especially if it sells at $35 like Magnus did.

About that, I am surprised people are being very vocal about that still not being the case, more so on Facebook. I fail to see how it's anything but that, especially when the other theory is that this is the worst battle damage paint job we have ever seen. Also, that means there is no spoiler. At least with the "new" interpretation of this toy correlating with the show's events, we do get a sense of this toy being a spoiler of sorts.

I'm probably wrong but my hope for the spoiler pack is mercenary SoundBlaster with Buzzsaw and howlback with a mercenary soldier that's a repainted impactor

While the toys from Takara and Hasbro may be the same now, the distribution is completely the opposite. FOr those not in the know, the "mainline" Earthrise toys are exclusives in Japan while the Netflix series toys are not. It could be that Japan is going by the old addage of the main line being the one that ties directly to the prominant media, where one supports the other.

The good thing here is that it means people who missed out on Walmart preorders or who simply do not have Walmarts to buy the exclusive Netflix toys from have more options. Especially for exclusive retools like Elita-1 and Bumblebee.

Those two are currently available for preorder at Amazon Japan. They ship worldwide (shipping will be combined) and they are a bit less than $25 USD a piece.

Here are the links below:

Netflix Elita-1: https://www.amazon.co.jp/%E3%82%BF%E3%8 ... 47JSBSKZ37?tag=seibertron00-22&

Netflix Bumblebee: https://www.amazon.co.jp/%E3%82%BF%E3%8 ... oys&sr=1-1?tag=seibertron00-22&

It just occurred to me that Wave 2 is a lot of Earthrise molds (plus Red Alert), so maybe the spoiler pack will be for Chapter 2? If so, I could see it being a Nemesis Prime or Nova Prime from GUOP.Maybe as a "Mercenary" captain for the ship from the end of Chapter 1?

Or perhaps another one of Shockwave's experiment clones.

I tried both my USA and Australian mailing addresses for the Japanese preorder, it rejected both by saying it would not ship to either of these addresses.

And then it added something about increasing the quantity, which makes me think this is for wholesalers only.

So looks like at the moment, us Australians cannot obtain this Bumblebee toy.

Nemesis Prime is a pretty safe bet for the next spoiler box. It does say Fanguron Giza right on the front in Cybertronian in the same place it said Battlefield Rung on the previous box, that's Nemie's sword partner from PotP and Arms Microns. His name is Fanguron Giza so maybe it's a Slitherfang repaint? Giza has been a shark and a bird so far, why not a snake now?

For the 2nd spoiler box, (we know its a leader figure with a Battle Master) along with Giza, I think some are speculating it will be some sort of redeco of Galaxy Prime, based on:

Leader UM has been released twice (retail and spoiler box 1)
Leader Shockwave has been released twice (retail and selects Galactic Man)

Astrotrain is a distant possibility, but literally he was in 2 shots in the final episode that very much looked like late additions just to say he was there. The text revealing Giza is accurate, however, this 2nd wave is specifically still supposed to be tied to Siege, so not sure how that works since Giza was not part of it. But then again neither were any of the other Battle Masters in the other packs from the 1st wave....

I wouldn't mind a Nemesis Prime from the Galaxy Upgrade Prime mould, though mainly because I never managed to get the original. It would also be great to have a Nemesis Prime that's a different mould from the Earthrise Leader Optimus Prime, it would make him feel more like a distinct character and not just a standard black repaint.

So I had a random thought today while I opened a certain Autobot space shuttle.

At the end of the series, Teletran was signaling an approaching spacecraft. Could that possibly be our Magnificence friend?

Not sure on that. Megatron had no need to crew a craft because he was winning. The Autobots were retreating. It makes more sense that what they end up encountering is either Sky Lynx or an Earth-based spacecraft.

My first thought was this. And I still feel like that's the most logical answer. Warden explained (somewhere) that Earthrise was the story of their travel through space to get to Earth. (don't ask me to explain why they already have Earth modes. I don't know. Wolfman Jake said they were so excited for the Earth party, they picked out their 'fits early. :lol: ) But, I like the possibility of it being Sky Lynx too. Who could very well be the ally that leads them to Earth.

Plus, would the Nemesis be "unidentified" to Telatran 1? It's a pretty smart computer, well versed in all things Cybertronian.

Given Doubledealer being part of the Earthrise range, I can see his faction gimmick coming into play for the story side of things. He may save them from the quints just to get closer to them.

I wonder what the possibility of that Cheetor Listing being meant for Netflix is?

So Walmart somehow screwed up my Netflix order somehow. The order that I placed back in February and pre-paid for still says "delayed" even though I noticed several items have gone out of stock in the past week since the show aired. I used their online contact AI thing to get an email response, but the rep clearly had no idea what was going on, kept telling me to cancel the item and reorder it even though there's seven items in the order. It wasn't until I complained about the service I was getting did he actually make an attempt to do something about it by elevating it to someone above him. I'll post the emails below, you'll be able to easily see why I was so frustrated.

I appreciate you bringing this to our attention so that we can deal with this immediately

Upon checking your account, I found your items, and it appears to be stuck in processing. There are several reasons that this can occur including operational and system issues. At this point, we can actually attempt to cancel the item and you can reorder if you still want it. Please know that we do not wish this kind of issue to happen and we are committed to ensuring that we resolve them for you, I hope you understand. Would you like me to attempt to cancel your order? Thank you in advance.

Walmart.com Customer Care

Hi,

Please do not cancel the order. These are mostly sold out online and have been in stores long enough that they don't appear to be getting restocked anymore.

Thank you for your response.

I certainly understand you. As I checked online, the item is now available and can be added to cart. The reason why the order did no go through is due to system operational issues. However, we can cancel the order so you'll got your money release from your bank then you can place the order successfully. Please advise.

The order is for seven items, four of which are showing out of stock on walmart.com and one is being sold by Walmart for $20+ more than the original price. Just to be sure you're looking at order #********** right?

Upon checking, the price are still the same. Please check on this link https://www.walmart.com/ip/Transformers ... /726299451?wmlspartner=FYAGeMjDX6c&=&affs=p&wid=5b6b4213e4b0bcb699adeb9f&u1=&oid=223073.10006940&sourceid=37141976172661509211&affillinktype=3&veh=aff. Please advise.

You don't seem to understand the problem. Yes, that one item out of the seven items in the order is in stock, but four others are sold out and another has been priced way higher than than the normal price. If I cancel the order I'll only be able to order three of the seven items and I'll have to pay MORE to do it.

This item is out of stock: https://www.walmart.com/ip/Transformers ... /343836495?wmlspartner=FYAGeMjDX6c&=&affs=p&wid=5b6b4213e4b0bcb699adeb9f&u1=&oid=223073.10006940&sourceid=37141976172661509211&affillinktype=3&veh=aff

This item is priced by Walmart at $61.57 instead of the normal $39.99: https://www.walmart.com/ip/Transformers ... /100876059?wmlspartner=FYAGeMjDX6c&=&affs=p&wid=5b6b4213e4b0bcb699adeb9f&u1=&oid=223073.10006940&sourceid=37141976172661509211&affillinktype=3&veh=aff

I'm not asking for much, I just want the items that I pre-ordered and pre-paid for. Other people have received these items without paying ahead for them, my order should have been your number one priority before all else instead of jumping through hoops!

I certainly understand you. For the other items, they are currently out of stock from Walmart.com fulfillment center. In that case, we still need to cancel your order so you would get your money back, then once the manufacturer already provide us another stocks you can reorder the item and we will definitely adjust the price if ever it goes higher. We can only adjust the price if the item is sold and shipped by Walmart.com. Please advise.

It really doesn't sound like you're doing anything to fix the problem. Just telling me to cancel my order and re-order the ones that are in stock isn't exactly fixing the problem. It's hard to believe that the biggest retailer in the world can't make this right. I did everything right on my end, not only did I order these the day they were made available in February but I also paid for them up front. People that ordered these last week are getting them, and you're basically telling me "tough luck, maybe next time". Walmart screwed this up and Walmart should be solving the problem, even if it means sourcing them from seven different stores. It feels like there's no communication going on between you and whatever warehouse was supposed to fill this order to keep it from happening again.

If I cancel the order and and then order the 3 in stock items how will you adjust the price on the one that's showing up as $61.57 instead of $39.99 like it should? It says "sold and shipped by Walmart", yet that is definitely not the Walmart price. I can go on Amazon and get it from a scalper for less than that.

I certainly understand your concern. I assure you this will be escalated to the customer resolution team for further review. They have the necessary resources to provide or process anything regarding your concerns. You will receive a response from them promptly. Rest assured there will be an action for this. Thank you for understanding and have a great day!

Should you have questions and any other concerns, please let me know and I'll be happy to assist you.

What a waste of time, they should have escalated it in the first place. I hope I don't have to go through this again in October!

Maybe he snuck on board when the Decepticons attacked the Ark? If they go with the poll story thing.


They didn't make much use out of the "Mirage convinces Impactor to join the Autobots" plotline from the Siege fan poll, though. SPOILERS: Mirage was there and juxtaposed with Impactor in some ways, but it was Ratchet who got him to change his attitude, though Impactor still didn't actually switch sides.
