Below is the video to the Fan First Friday Transformers event but you can also see the images and descriptions of what was revealed below. None of these are for wide brick and mortar retail release.

How to Share With Just Friends

We saw the G1 reissue of Blaster which we already knew was coming due to the Fan Vote. This will be a Walmart exclusive as with all G1 reissues. They also showed a Blaster shirt, exclusive to Hasbro Pulse.

There will be a weapons pack and Centurione Drone set, meaning that the image we saw earilier is indeed of a toy coming out. We also have an image of the weapons that drone comes with. It includes Roller, Megatron in Blaster mode along with a bunch of other neat things. This will be exclusive to Hasbro Pulse.

There is also:

Amazon exclusive Alternate Universe Optimus Prime
Selects Tigertrack
Selects Rotorstorm
Walmart exclusive Transformers R.E.D. line (G1, Prime, Beast Wars, etc.) - Optimus Prime, Megatron, Soundwave

Two other pieces of news were confirmed. Firstly, we will be getting an Autobot Clone two-pack and, secondly, the Transformers RED series will include characters from all different eras. So that Arcee listing will most probably be of the character from the Prime show.

What are you, a weapon kit?

Fingers crossed for hubcap coming with a weapon pack too. Might have been a lot of stuff already seen but some good stuff non the less.

Really excited bout the weapon kit - really cool way of adding stuff that was missing from certain figures - sure they're keeping tabs on the popularity of 3rd party accessories and upgrades.

I mean on one hand it'd have been nice for some of these had been included in what have been expensive figures (e.g leader siege prime...) but hey guess we're suckers

Love the weapon pack, a bit miffed they missed the chance to ad a bunch of blast effects with it and it would have been nice to be done separately from the drone. I'm sure there are people who would like to have multiple drones, but I guess they could sell the extra weapons pack on ebay,

So this R.E.D series seem like the perfect chance to give us a more Cartoon Accurate G1 Arcee and it looks like they're going for the Prime version.

I wonder if Lazerbeak in Soudwave will transform or just be the worlds worst frisbee

Oh, wow I guess they did have stuff left to reveal! The weapon kit just pushed the Centurion drone to a buy for me, plus Tigertracks, and Rotorstorm look great! And the only thing that slightly worries me now is that Beast Wars is only going to be celebrated by the RED line, meaning they won't transform

Where do I acquire a version of TFTM with the cut part of DiCola's score inserted like in the clip used here? This is very important to me.

Should have been renamed U.S. Fans First given there are no Walmarts overseas and Hasbro Pulse doesn't ship internationally. A massive disappointment, also they need to get their eyes checked regarding Rotorstorm's head

That weapons pack is really disappointing to me, in the sense that a lot of it should've been included with Prime for his leader price. And hell, would it have really affected the cost of Soundwave or Megatron to include the cubes?

no no, we'll be getting another cheetor. Unless the data system walmart adheres to is a lie. I think I should make a list of all anticipated figures that have yet to be revealed. Lots of people are asking similar questions.

Unless the cubes got a lil 5mm stub on the bottom they are kinda pointless. I got the Netflix Spoiler pack and the 3 cubes that came with it just sit by my monitor. They can't really be held by any of the figures.

I'll take the drone and weapon pack, mainly to support the idea of weapon packs being a thing, always good to have choice.

I'm kind of surprised the Pulse exclusives didn't have pre-orders go up right away (maybe they are waiting until after the GI Joe panel is done?)...Anyway....Of the bunch the only one I'll probably be getting is the Drone/weapons pack. The rest were nice, but not in my scope for collecting. I would have just got the drone by itself as I enjoy the weaponizers, but the extra pack is just kind of a cooncidental benefit. It will be nice for my Earthrise Prime to be "complete". Not sure if the Megatron accessories are for a specific version, or just a "whatever you feel like" scenario.

Were there any prices mentioned by chance?

Rotorstorm looks neat. Kinda odd that they don't give him new head tho, considering they manage to do that on a lot of other figures from selects line.

Posted by Skritz on June 26th, 2020 @ 11:40am CDT

I'm surprised they haven't revealed more...and also disappointed that Rotorstorm lacks a new head. I guess a pretooled head is something which is mostly gone now.

I understand the complaints that a lot of these new accessories should have been included with their figures from the start, but you have to remember that the design team is at the mercy of a finite budget. If corporate says no, they don't get much of a say. Hasbro even has someone whose whole job is to decide where to cut costs out of initial plans. I see this accessory pack as a love letter from the designers for everything that was left on the cutting room floor. If anything, this gives me hope for more amendments like this in the future.

No prices yet but the Hasbro Pulse site is down for maintenance and will be back up with the preorders at 1 pm ET which is 15 minutes or so from now.

Makes sense, probably adding all the TF and GI Joe reveals from today (the ones that are being offered through Pulse at least). I'm guessing the Drone/Weapons pack will be $40.00 US. I certainly hope its not more than that.

Well, Rotorstorm is incredibly disappointing. They didn't even give him a new head. Even Dead Prime got a new head, but not Rotorstorm? rip

The fact that the RED series is going to feature more than G1 is awesome, but they're still non-transforming 6" action figures.

The Centurion + accessories pack looks cool, but I kind of wish there were more just random guns, many of those go to very specific characters (or are very specific characters). The inclusion of Roller is definitely going to sell a ton of these.
