I love that Shockwave. Honestly the Hot Rod looks more like a Hot Blob I wish that they'd done a better job with that one.

Fellow Seibertronians just in from Dorksidetoys are some more new images from the Cyberverse line, Energon Attack Optimus Prime and Saw Tooth Spin Scraplet! We get to see Scraplet in package with battle damage – a detail not previously noticed. You will unfortunately also notice we are getting yet another Optimus who only half Transforms. One could see this as disappointing to a degree, but really, imagine if only the top half transformed? It’s all about perspective. Enjoy the images and let us know your thoughts below!

The Cyberverse Scout Class is the worst, most terrible part of a disappointing toyline. That said, at least Scraplet looks fun and is true-ish to being a Scraplet.

Seriously!?! The one bot I want from this line and they have to
it up with "battle" damage?!? Hasbro's CEO's deserve a vigorous
-bagging.

The entirety of the Cyberverse line has been an easy pass for me...

You have to realize that... someone got PAID to suggest and design those Scout class figures. Like, how did that conversation go?
Hasbro executives: Alright sales team. We have this new cartoon coming out. As with the proud tradition of the Hasbro company dating back many years ago to 1984, a toyline absolutely must come out with this cartoon. Ideas?
Rando Sales person #1: Well, we must include the Warrior class line. It was a big hit with the fans during Robots in Disguise.
HasEx: You're right. However, many people thought those toys were too complex for little kids... any ideas of to fix this problem?
#1 (hesitating): I mean, we could maybe take out some of the articulation... it would make the toy less complicated, but also less fu-
HasEx: Righto! Do that. Send that to design team. Anything else? Remember, think stupidly simple.
Rando Sales person #2: How about partly transforming figures?
HasEx: What do you mean?
#2: Instead of going from robot to vehicle complete, depict the end mode of the transformation as being midway into tranforming. You'd save on design time and cost because we could literally make the robot mode end up looking anyway we want and claim that it's supposed to look partly transformed.
HasEx: Well, we're always looking to save a little money...
#1: Wait! That's completely stupid. What's the play value in that? Won't kids notice how idiotic that'll look?
#2: Nah, we can make up some "use your imagination" BS like we do for the Power Ranger toys that don't actually morph. Or maybe add a simple gimmick that'll totally distract from the transforming gimmick. We could even pacify older fans by naming after an old class size we don't use anymore, like Scout or something.
#1: That'll just pi-
HasEx: Yes! Great plan, #2. Get that to the design teams too!

Amazing. The one figure from this wave that I was going to buy in bulk without question, because we've never gotten a Scraplet before, and it's technically a callback to Marvel US #3 that wouldn't have any rights issues with Disney...and they manage to give it a deco that actually makes me think twice. Because a whole swarm of Scraplets can't all have the exact same battle damage, so if you army build--
Wait, maybe this is a clever ploy to prevent troop-building-adult-collectors from clearing the pegs and leaving no Scraplets for the kids find! And all because I (and so many others) went overboard with TR Sharkticons!
On second glance, it's just paint, the pock-marks are just screw-holes...
Say, does anyone else think the Scraplet's supposed to look like it has a mild case of Cosmic Rust?! Perhaps they have partial immunity, making them the perfect carriers? That'd be the ultimate Marvel/Sunbow disease-fusion, a perfect example of what I love most about Cyberverse! Now we just need a flashback to Alpha Trion and Emirate Xaaron having a heated argument at the Iacon High Council, and my life will be complete!
Oh, and I love it's card art! Makes it look like Ben 10's going to turn into one next season.

I'm really happy about the battle damaged Scraplets. I hope I can get 3 of them, considering my local stores stopped carrying Cyberverse at Christmas time.

Fellow Seibertronians, yours truly has discovered some exciting news regarding the Transformers Cyberverse Spark Armor figures. Some time ago, the show's Season 2 trailer featured the return of a long time favorite, the Beast Wars Maximal, Cheetor.
Naturally, the Maximal is getting a new toy to go with the new show. Thanks to In Demad Toys, we’ve got some images of this new version of Cheetor. Cheetor transforms from a rather nice looking robotic cheetah into a robot stylized after his Beast Wars appearance, and apparently transforms without any faux parts. As part of the Spark Armor lineup, he too comes with his own Battle Armor, his being a retooled version of Bumblebee’s Spark Armor.
We have mirrored the images for your convenience:



What do you think? Will he be worth getting, or will he be a skip for you? Tell us in the discussion below

Totally!
Doesn't someone else come with the same armor/battleship? Bumblebee?
Or does it just look similar?
Agree that it's neat to see Cheetor show up again.
Edit: Jumped back a page because I swore we'd just seen Bee, and yes looks like they share their armor up companion.

Is this the first we've seen of different figs sharing a armor friend?
