Transformers Generations Combiner Wars Promotional Superion and Menasor Posters

Posted by Va'al May 24, 2015 at 10:38am CDT 25,048 views
On a day like this, as we approach the end of the virtually unnoticed May Mayhem for Hasbro Transformers, the latter's official Facebook page has posted two really quite enjoyable promotional posters for the main faces of the Combiner Wars line: Stunticon combiner Menasor and Aerialbot counterpart Superion, with the 'Courage is Stronger When Combined' tagline!

Check out the mirrored images below, notified by fellow Seibertron.com member MaverickPrime, and make sure to take a look at our very own galleries for the two teams here and here. Meanwhile, I will be waiting for Hasbro to credit their artists...

Wow, Menasor looks like crap even in his art! It's not the artists' fault, the toy's design is vomit-inducing.

Going by precedents, I'll say this is either Santalucia or Matere, though I could be very mistaken.
Might check with them, actually.

The Menasor one looks pretty good. I'm not really sure what's going on in the Superion one. Is he tired? Drunk? Doing some kind of half-assed pelvic thrust? No idea.

Shame the offer on them will probably be over before they are released

Love these, wish Superion was more in frame, also wish Menasor was smashing his fist into the ground.

Ok, this is a half baked thought and I may be off base. I find it interesting or maybe puzzling that they used the word courage on the Decepticon poster.

I would normally associate courage as a positive descriptor and wouldn't associate it with the "bad guys". Of course, good/bad is determinded by which side of the fence you're on. In the current comics they are exploring the idea that both sides of the war did terrible things, but the 'Cons were still way more ruthless.

I don't know? I'm having a hard time finishing this thought. Maybe some of you could help me fully bake it or add some of your insight?
