We have been sent a list of upcoming toys for 2022 and we are breaking them down per line. Of course, since we only have listed names from ordering sheets and no actual listings, you should take these with a grain of salt.

This list below is for the RED line which is remaining Walmart exclusive for the next year (but can also be ordered on Hasbro Pulse). It seems it will mainly be redecos/retools with 4 new molds. Also, the release of Cliffjumper now reveals why Bumblebee has a removeable chest piece, it's to make a retool that much easier to do. This would be for the entirety of 2022.

Wave 1:
G1 Galvatron x2
G1 Shockwave x2
Redeco Megatron x1
Redeco Optimus Prime x1

Wave 2:
Prime Optimus Prime x2
Prime Megatron x2
G1 Shockwave x1
G1 Galvatron x1

Wave 3:
G1 Thundercracker x2
Nemsis Prime x2
Prime Optimus prime x2

Wave 4:
Prime Dark Energon Megatron x2
G1 Cliffjumper x2
G1 Thundercracker x2

So Hasbro is still pushing on with this line even though it isn't selling...

However they can't seem to keep any WFC stocked at any retailer across the nation.

Odd priorities.

It's just more stock for the shelves. Also, this line seems like an easy one for them cost based wise. Not a lot of new molds and no need for takara designer involvement.

Shockwave might be interesting with clear lines/deco over the siege one. I still havent seen red Knock Out though like most of the Red Prime stuff it's going to be compaing them to original figures and any upcoming Legacy figures before deciding on what to buy.
Thundercrackers a maybe for me as its chest should look better than wfc earthmmodes bots and might be easier to get (not keen on how the null rays sit on wfc earthmode bots either). Galvatron has the possibility of being the best Hasbro Galvatron available for a while even with a lack of two of his modes.

So, is Prime Dark Energon Megatron going to be a new version of Unicron-possessed Megatron from the TV movie? If so, it's a bummer it doesn't transform, but at least we'll have an accurate representation instead of a simple repaint or a Construct-Bots with their buildable aestethic. Also, swappable weapons/hands would be the best way to incorporate his Dark Energon weapons.

Pretty sur he won't be. Instead, a Dark Energon redeco reffers to when he was powering himself with Dark Energon

We've had 2 decos of that in the Prime line.

These have been popping up for a week now but we wanted to let you know just in case. This fourth wave of the Walmart exclusive RED line has the new releases of Optimus Primal and a clear purple Megatron redeco, referencing the moment he becomes Galvatron in the 86 film. They have been found across the US, like Arkansas and Massachusetts. They have also been found in Canada at the same time, and all over as well with reports coming in from Ontario and Alberta. The image below is of a Walmart in Brockville Ontario.

Thanks to a post on Weibo, we have out first look at some upcoming toys to come to the Transformers RED line. These are Prime Knockout and Ultra Magnus. Ultra Magnus is a white redeco of Optimus Prime, so an homage to the G1 toy's inner bot. Knockout is a fully new mold. The RED line is still exclusive to Walmart in 2022. Let us know what you think and if you will be picking these up. It seems that while many fans are not enthused by this line, it does sell well enough to keep going and to not remain on shelves too long.

Knock Out is a Day 1 purchase since he'd make for a more interesting purchase than the possible Legacy version since they're not going for 1:1 TFP Knockout.

Knockout looks like a shampoo bottle, due to the flat, lack-of-detail appearance.

I hope I'm wrong.

This is the first Knock Out toy that actually, finally looks like his cartoon design. It's about time he got his due. That Deluxe toy he got back in the day did him no justice.

Still waiting on one that's accurate and is actually a good toy too.

Those SS toys have had official acknowledgements, albeit ROTF Sideswipe was after it was found in stores (which isn't uncommon, it's happened for years now). Plus, Hasbro has stopped revealing at least 50% of their toys. None of the Cyberverse toys from 2021 have official reveals as far as I know. That's why websites like ours exists.

OK, worded that wrong, I meant it's like SS Jolt and Sideswipe where it was found in stores first and revealed later, except these haven't been officially revealed yet.

Anything that isn't SS86 or Legacy it seems haven't been revealed before being found in stores or leaked. The brand team's reveals have been getting very poor across the board lately. They really should borrow a Marvel guy for a bit to learn about proper reveals.

Personally, I think they should do what they are doing with the Star Saber, let us in on the process. Probably not with Movie toys since the designs are to be revealed by Paramount or whatever, but for legacy, SS and even Rescue Bots and Cyberverse (and the show that will replace it soon). Like that we know what's coming out and it's not just a select few.

You mean revealed, not released, and it isn't that surprising. Toys like Cyberverse are sold mainly to kids and parents, two demos that generally don't keep up on press releases and news reports. No point in a promotional campaign when the store shelves are the first place most of their target buyers are going to see them anyway.

Yes revealed, if they weren't released I'd have some splainin' to do. Let's not forget, they were featured in commercials so there's that.

Funny enough right at the end of the year/after Christmas all my recent Cyberverse reviews got a boost, most of the comments were from parents thanking me for the help.

Cyberverse is plenty G1, it's just not made with collectors in mind. Many have been bitching and whining about the line existing since it started, no use spending any resources promoting it to a base that doesn't care about it.

But I actually kinda like it that way, since it gives sites like this one a purpose.

Kinda weird getting a transformer with out instructions but I have my first Red figure and I have to say Cheetor is pretty good.

The plastic isn't rubbery or tacky as I thought it might have been with the reviews of optimus and megatron. The extra hands are neat but feels like he could have had a few extra heads with different expressions or mutant head. I kind of have him arched backwards looking like he his shouting Khan!!! Or something similar which a shouty head would have been great for. I think Red could probably pull off cardboard backdrops like studio series does.

I'm less on the fence about picking up prime arcee or knock out now even if they will be a bit to big for my liking/displaying with older figures. Cheetor doesn't have that issue for me and goes well with MP primal.

Thanks to Preternia on Twitter and the Transformers Facebook page, we have news that the latest wave of Transformers RED series has been revealed.

The newest wave consists of 2 figures, and those 2 figures are G1 Shockwave and G1 Galvatron. As is the RED standard, these are non-transforming 6-inch figures that try to be accurate to the cartoon designs. While we only get 1 image of each for now, we can expect further images to be coming soon.

Both of these figures are set to be released for Preorder this Thursday March 24 at 1:00PM EST, so stay tuned for those preorders, which will be part of Walmart Collector Con.

Check them out, and let us know what you think in the comments section below!

Yeah, just saw these on Instagram...
Shockwave may join my other R.E.D. Decepticons.
But man, that Glavatron head/face sculpt just looks bad... Unfortunate, I probably would have bought him too. That ugly mug makes him an easy, easy pass.

Yeagh, something that I'm not liking about galvatrons head but it's still better than Kingdom galvatron so he might be my movie shelf galvy whilst TR with head from cyclonus is my headmasters shelf galvy.
Thinking I'll pass on shockwave after still feeling ripped off on the price of siege shockwave.

That is unfortunate for UK fans. On the flip side however, pre order links for these just went live on Pulse.com. I like how they say " supplies are limited" :lol: . While that may be factually true, one thing we have yet to see is a single RED figure sell out on Pulse. I just checked, and they are all still available.

Surprisingly they didn't go up on Walmart.com which is the store that has the exclusivity on them. Of course, the action pic with Shockwave shows the Megatron gun warped in its hand, might be the right size for GI Joe Classified figures too. I hate RED, I truly do, but I can't help but want these figures. Coronation Starscream wasn't that bad...

Both Galvatron and Shockwave RED are now up on Hasbro Pulse:

Thinking I'll pass on shockwave after still feeling ripped off on the price of siege shockwave.


They're still using that rubber-eraser style plastic that they always use for figures like the Star Wars Black series, or the Marvel Legends series. It's soft, and it doesn't allow for sharp, crisp details. They rely on paint for that. But with robot faces like Galvatron's, they seem to have skipped on trying to paint them. Which leaves only the sculpted detail. And this rubber doesn't do crisp edges, so all the facial details get washed out, as if he were a photo that was taken out of focus.

In that way, the actual transforming figures often look superior. Not only do they pose just as well (or better) than the RED figures, but they use hard plastic - so the detailing looks a lot sharper.

I'll try and wait until he's on sale, but I'll get Shockwave...

I still say Megatron is the best R.E.D. figure of the G1 offerings.
His sculpt is incredibly well done and substantially better than the rest.

So how long until we get a Reformatting Galvatron? If they make one I might be tempted to buy regular Galvatron and both Megatrons and stick them on a shelf in order. Until then, still no real interest in RED, I would rather pay the money and get the Super7 Ultimates.

Does anybody know if Shockwave and Galvatron ended up on Walmart.com? Never saw them and missed them on Pulse.

Supposedly they did, but there were lots of preorder issues getting the cart to work

Always fun to find toys at retail that fans didn't even see before. A fan and amateur glamour model in Taiwan posted images on their not safe for work Facebook page showing new RED toys in the new closed box packaging Hasbro has been doing in other lines. There is Prime Optimus Prime, Prime Megatron and G1 Thundercracker. We also have an image of Prime Megatron removed from packaging.

Will these be officially revealed later today? We'll see. Let us know what you think.
