Thanks to TFanPage101, we got news of one place Canadians can order the upcoming Transformers Generations Selects War for Cybertron Micromaster WFC-GS10 Soundwave Spy Patrol 4-Pack. This are the cassette bots that go with Soundwave, Soundblaster and the upcoming Doubledealer. It includes Decepticon Rumble, Decepticon Wingthing, Decepticon Skar and Autobot Knok.

A preorder for this set popped up on EB Games for 29.99 CAD, which is slightly more than two two-packs. This is not listed as an exclusive, so other places like Toysrus may get these as well. But if you don't want to chance it, here is a preorder for you. Please note, the image they chose for the listing is wrong.

TFSource raised their price on Super Megatron from $64.99 to $69.99. I know they do that occasionally on some things that go out of stock elsewhere, but it's odd for them to raise the price while Hasbro is still taking pre-order for $10 less.

We don't know their specific cost for this item, it might be that their middleman costs are higher this time. Something Hasbro doesnt have to worry about. Plus, since I am assuming many americans are going to go to Pulse, TFSource is getting orders from international buyers who can't get from Pulse, and thus there is no to be more competitive in pricing.

Just spitballing here.

For future EB Games related news could you state which Country it's for? EB Games exists in other countries outside of Canada, I know how hard that is for certain people to fathom.

It avoids getting people excited only to be let down. >:oP

Interesting. Pulse also has Doubledealer listed for July 1. Or approximate July 1. But for others with an approximate date listed as first of the month, it has usually a week or two in. I kinda don't want everything to drop in September, gonna crush my wallet all at once :-(

But there's also a lot more episodes where he's the same size as the other combiners in combined mode. I guess it depends on how you structure your collection. Will he stand next to Omega or the other Decepticon combiners? For me, since I'm not going into OS KO CW Devy and Titan Omega are too tall.

In the end either titan Omega and Devy are too large or all the other combiners are too small. And all the combiners mass shift anyway. :HEADHURTS:
Yeah, it's a real mess thanks to the combiners mass-shifting to be larger than the sum of their parts.

CW Devastator in combined mode is Devastator at his combination-enabled mass-shifted size relative to normal-size TFs, at the price of the individual Constructicons being too big and the combined mode being out-of-scale with other combiners. The same generally applies to Predaking.

The other combiners have their individual members in-scale. They're thus not "step on everyone" size relative to normal-size TFs (note that I specify "normal-size TFs") like they are in the cartoon, although they're still of a respectable size due to not having midget limb-bots.

SIEGE Omega Supreme... He's as big as he should be next to normal-size TFs and mass-shifted Devastator, but too huge next to the standard CW-style combiners much like Devy is.

I will say that there is a way to make the standard CW combiners look the mass-shifted size: Legion-class figures.

Regarding Piranacon/King Poseidon, since I'm assuming he probably came up in this discussion at some point... Piranacon never got to appear in the cartoon since in the US new episodes stopped in 1987, so it's hard to say how big he would have been in it. And the Marvel comics were even more hopeless than the cartoon so using them as a reference is iffy.
But we do have a more solid size reference on the King Poseidon end of things. In Masterforce he was in the same league as Super and God Ginrai size-wise, so being basically standard CW/PotP combiner size works out perfectly there.

Gauntlet101010 wrote:TBH, if I had infinite money and storage space I'd get KO OS CW Combiners to be combined and let the official guys be uncombined with Titan OS as my OS. That would be just about right, I think. Buuuut .... I don't have that.
Myself, I'd go with an undersize KO of Devastator (easier on space, gives better-scaled individual 'Structies, and it just makes more sense to get a smaller Devy than huger versions of everyone else b/c the others outnumber Devy), an undersize KO of Omega Supreme (once one exists) to have one in show-scale with the combiners, and Titan-class Omega to have a version of him that scaled with normal-size TFs.

Also, there was something in your post not thought through :P Luckily context makes it easy enough to figure out which OS is which.

That's why I use Amazon as much as possible. I can pay off the pre-orders over time using gift cards. If I find something earlier I can cancel the order easily.

Hm... I wonder if it would be feasible for HasTak to reissue the Seacons as a single boxset at the Titan price point for Part 3 of WFC, as something of a bone thrown to those who couldn't get them during this first go-around.

I think they're planning just that, in the same style as the UW box sets. Which may means no Nautilator redeco and just the sword weapon, no guns or Targetmaster modes (not a big loss, really). That would bring the total price down a bit... :-?

They might see the clone pack differently, saying that enough time had passed, so a gift set of King Posideon could come out in an equal time frame so maybe 2023ish. At the moment though we can only speculate. I'd imagine that a boxset release is probably the furthest thing from their minds currently as they try and plan the next few months in this bold new world.

I don't understand your point. Hasbro is asking $25 for them just like they sold for in Japan. They raised the price for two clones by $7 more than two clones sold for at Walgreens, $18. That's not comparable at all to charging $150 for a box set of something they sold themselves individually for a total of $235. Imagine the backlash if they did the same with Studio Series Devastator.

I thought he was making more of a point about limited staying limited, basically saying that for the people who got the walgreens set M, they had to buy the limited edition boxes to get the other clones (or get the Takara ones).

Admittedly, I did get flashbacks to the whole Botcon Thundercracker debacle when you said limited should stay limited.

Age 3 and Up have preorders open for Super Megatron. So we Canadians can have it at the REASONABLE price of... 95$CAN plus taxes plus shipping.

I called it that it would be a 100$CAN+ figure.

The Generations Selects manga hints at the Seacons getting BW2 redecos.

If I had to guess... I'd guess Sky Garry as an extensive Siege Shockwave retool (the vehicle mode is close including robot chest near the rear of the dropship) and Grandus as a Doubledealer retool (ER DD has a MM basemode) with some funky tabbing to allow the two to be towed by Star Convoy like the vintage toy.

In a more perfect world, IMHO, Star Convoy would have been a TR/Legends Ginrai retool with Godbomber retooled as Grandus. Sky Garry would remain a Siege Shockwave retool.

I would make Gilthor a heavy retool of the Siege Seeker body. It's articulated enough to pull off the transformations and was a form taken by Starscream.

I have to say, having the first 4 seacons, lobster-guy is easily my favorite of the them all; a great beast mode, and an amazing bot mode.


A massive pet peeve of mine is the awful juxtaposition of the zany g1 beast bots and the derpy, cop-shades-wearing bot mode heads, they just don't fit together for me, and I kinda really hate that look, honestly

Thanks to a Tweet from Takaratomy Mall, we have a pair of new images to show you this evening of the upcoming Transformers Selects Super Megatron.

These new images show the Super Megatron figure compared to his arch rival: Star Convoy. Star Convoy was released last year as the first Takara Selects figure, and Super Megatron himself was teased long before that, meaning that fans have had over a year of anticipation for this showdown in toy form at last.

The images show us that, as anticipated, Super Megatron is noticeably shorter than Star Convoy, but he definitely helps make up for that with some significant bulk and lots of pointy ends, meaning that he sort of still stands up to Star Convoy.

Super Megatron is set to be released this September, and will retail for around $60 US. Check out the images below, and let us know what you think in the comments section below!

Thanks to the expanded G1 lore, Optimus's final G1 evolution is the ordinary-looking body he had at the end of the Legends manga Epilogue, when he and Megatron finally brokered peace together. ;)

Megatron, however, does get his final form with this toy, that being Ultra Megatron Omega.

Megatron, however, does get his final form with this toy, that being Ultra Megatron Omega.


... way to spoil my fun :lol:

If it's any consolation, the Takara Selects Manga takes place between the end of American G1 and Japanese Headmasters and has Optimus and Megatron become Star Convoy and Super/Ultra Megatron early so in terms of the Selects releases, these are their final (so far) G1 forms since this is a new JG1 continuity that splinters off at The Return of Optimus Prime.

It retains -- in theory -- prior differences like 2006 vs 2010 for Season 3 but is basically a reboot of Japanese continuity without all the detours.

Now... If you wanted to have a different Optimus who is contemporary to Ultra Megatron, Nucleon Quest Optimus immediately follows so you could use PM Optimus Prime's reprolabels on Primitive Optimus Prime.

It's the same JG1 continuity. It's just that Optimus and Megatron are their 2011 selves being given temporary new forms based on those that they will acquire decades later into their future after this current adventure of theirs is over and they return to their home time of 2011. And said adventure has currently displaced the two into the far distant past into a universe that existed before the Big Bang created the JG1 cartoon universe.

Everyone's talking about deep JG1 lore, meanwhile I'm over here just excited to see that Megatron's looking even better than I thought he'd look. :lol: I just hope that his ankles are tight enough to support his weight cause I was messing with my Galvatron figure the other day and the ankles were giving me some trouble

Seeing Megs next to star, the scale is a little disappointing. I like it when Megatron is bigger and maybe beefier then Prime, which has made it a shame that we haven't gotten a leader class Megatron in such a long time.

Indeed.
Megatron deserve to be able to have a "super mode".
Leader Megs could even be a heavy retool of Leader Shockwave or follow the same kind of concept.

You can blame the cartoon scale for that. Last time we got a megs that was bigger then Prime in that fashion was Animated. Other than that they've been mostly the same size.

Well there was also Combiner Wars, but many people didn't like Voyager OP for being a torso and Leader Megs for being too skinny.

Yeah I should have specified that I meant fiction :lol: though CW megs and op is interesting as megs is bigger then stand alone op but op combined is bigger.

Is it possible that Super/Ultra Meg's forehead swaps independently of his face? Because if both modes have separate faces, it's kind of disappointing that both faces are identical other than the color of his forehead thingy.

Yes, since we have seen his red forehead with the regular face and the battle mask. Logically he can do the battle mask with the regular forehead.
