Greetings Seibertronians!

While the Velocitron line is Walmart exclusive in the US, here in the UK, it looks like Symths will be carrying the line, at retail at least.

This comes to us via fellow Seibertron user, CyclonusG1, who also shared proof in the way of Velocitron 500 Voyager Class Override!

Transformers News: Velocitron Line Now In Symths Toys

They also say that so far the only stock Symths seem to have received is Override, Voyager Class Hauler and Deluxe Class Cosmos.

So UK Transformers fans, you ready to start hunting? Or are you giving this line a large swerve? Chime in with your thoughts below!

Don't forgot to share pictures of your latest hauls in the Energon Pub and stay tuned to Seibertron for all the latest news and reviews!

Are there solid cases of just Cosmos, then? That would be welcome news!

Yes, we received solid cases of each figure. However, depending on where you are that might be different. Some retailers might have just ordered case assortments rather than just individual figures

I don't agree with that, but we can agree to disagree. It's complicated, it's governed by legal agreements none of us will ever see, and we can only speculate on the impacts like if these considerations factor into product decisions like non-movie movie characters.


I have a feeling it will be a fun discussion in a different time and place. :)

Probably, but while we're talking about it I just want to point out that we have proof that modern figures are still made under Paramount's license. Look no further than the legal information on Crossover Ultimate X-Spanse.

X-Spanse.JPG


As heavily altered as that figure is it's still a SS Jetfire retool and still requires a Dreamworks copyright. Of course it also has Disney and Marvel copyrights and the very obvious Lockheed Martin one. And people wondered why that figure was so expensive. :lol:

I'm more surprised they haven't shown up in Asia yet.

I don't think that's saying what I think you're saying. DreamWorks is the licensee for Lockheed Martin, which is the licensor. All that text says is that the Transformers movie producers have rights to use the Blackbird, it doesn't say anything about Hasbro's licensing relationship with DreamWorks. I mean, presumably someone's getting paid, but who knows how.

I feel like Hasbro would have just bypassed Dreamworks all together and gotten the license straight from Lockheed Martin in that case. The fact that they still needed to keep legal info on the box for Dreamworks tells me they have some say in the use of the figures and their designs even when they're being used in another company's toy. I do take back what I said earlier about Paramount, though. Looking at some Studio Series boxes and brushing up on movie production info I realized a made a mistake in saying Paramount had right to the figures. Paramount is just the distributor for the films and nothing more. Dreamworks produced the first movies and they appear to have kept the design rights for those films (though Hasbro was on the production team, but not as a studio), but the rest of the movies were primarily produced by Hasbro Films/Allspark Pictures/Entertainment One, all (obviously) owned by Hasbro. So I mostly take back what I said about Hasbro not being able to use movie designs and characters outside of movie lines except for the first two movies, that was outdated information. And thinking about it, we already have a movie design that's crossed that boundary fully and without the name needing to be change for legal reasons like my previous Megatron example, Authentics Barricade.

Now that's a new mold I'd like to see on Velocitron (to pull things back on topic...).

At with the Cartoon Network rights item discussed in the Legacy thread, I still don't believe "character designs" are protected material, but that's just my opinion. As for the presumed sublicense of Lockheed via DreamWorks, I'm not sure that translates into a "say" or direct payments, but those are possible. My basic assumption is that Hasbro needs, and has, the general authority to keep making movie toys in perpetuity without having to relicense from the film's producers, but that's just an assumption. It's probably defined explicitly in the contract.

Stumbling across a Cosmos figure in stores seems about the only hope for getting one. They sold out almost instantly on Pulse, and nobody else has them either. They may have underestimated the demand on this one...

That's how I got most of my TR and ER figures, with the exception of the Coneheads. I just happened to find them at the Wal-Mart I worked at, and usually they were the only copies, so I managed to snag them. I don't work there anymore, so hopefully I'll get lucky and find him either at Target or Wal-Mart. I've been luckier with Legacy and SS stuff when it comes to preorders thanks to Amazon and Pulse, but Cosmos was definitely a hot item for sure.

Can we expect the rest of the Minibots in the now-apparent Legacy trilogy? We still have at least 9 to go:

Beachcomber
Seaspray
Powerglide
Windcharger
Brawn
Gears
Outback
Tailgate
Swerve

I'm probably forgetting a few as well. I think Powerglide is the most likely while Outback the least likely.

In a Q&A from SDCC, we learned that there are plans to eventually get to the rest of the Minibots. We’re probably just going to have to be patient, though, just like with the SS86 Dinobots and Legacy Insecticons. It’s going to take a few years to get everyone done.

I hope Powerglide is next, if not Gears/Swerve. PotP Beachcomber is good enough for now, as are Brawn/Outback and Windcharger/Tailgate, even if the scale of those T30/Prime Wars figures is a little off now.

Yes, I assume they'll be LESS motivated to do figures like Brawn, Beachcomber, Seaspray and other minis, just because they did them for earlier (but not too distant) lines like PotP and TR. TR Seaspray particularly was excellent as a Legends size figure.

Hopefully with the amount of people that have the previous cosmos that don't want this version should make it easier to get gor those that do.

A lot of the people in the US that don't want them will buy them anyway and sell them on eBay for 3x the price and probably get it. [-(

Smyths will be stocking Scourge, we've just not got him yet. Generally Transformers start to be discounted within 3 months of release in order to clear space for the next wave of stock as stores just don't have the space to have multiple waves still on shelves

The Velocitron figures aren’t even out yet at U.S. Walmarts. It’s way too early to panic.
Re: Transformers Legacy Velocitron Line Now In Symths Toys (2139682)
Posted by william-james88 on July 28th, 2022 @ 11:14am CDT
There are lots of fears amongst fans regarding possible missing out on Cosmos. As of now, the toys is out of preorders on the US Walmart website and Pulse. Add to that the fact that he is shortpacked in the deluxe case and it's easy to see how panic could ensure. But it seems Hasbro has an answer to that. We have confirmation from Smith's toys that the deluxe cases they have received have only cosmos packed. We've seen this before with many other deluxes like TR Mindwipe, which end up putting a lot more product on the market and it's a practice Hasbro uses now and again. And it's not just Cosmos getting a solid box but Override and Hauler as well. It's impossible to know if Walmart US will receive those same solid cases but the good news is we know it's a current distribution option from Hasbro for fulfilling orders. And regardless of what ultimately happens, there being solid cases adds to the global supply removing the rarity of said figure which keeps secondary market prices down once the initial rush is over.

Here is what the retailer told us directly:

Yes, we received solid cases of each figure (Cosmos, Override and Hauler). However, depending on where you are that might be different. Some retailers might have just ordered case assortments rather than just individual figures


Also, since this figure is out in UK now, Prime vs Prime got his hands on it and sent us a message asking us to post his review, so here it is:



We also have a review from Toys are Russ

Hopefully people in the US might trade a Siege Phantomstrike set for a Cosmos them then if it goes crazy prices :P :( It's crap if aany regions get screwed out of getting a toy easier than others.

Nothing wrong with the photos. It's trying to depict the existence of Case Allotments that only have nothing but Cosmos in them.

Walmart Canada do not do pre-orders online or off afaik. So I can only hope I can find it at retail (the 2 near me are utter crap, I couldn't find anything worth buying since 2017~18) and not get scalped. But if historic trends hold, it's almost ALWAYS the latter and I won't be getting Velocitron Cosmos.

Walmart Canada never have anything available for me for preorder. It's broken for me somehow. Like, EVERYTHING is "Not available online" for the first 3 rows, then nothing loads afterward. Clicking on the "next" page load the same things as the first page. Everytime, Everyday. So I jsut assume it's for show (to know that it's in store) and not for pre-order. Does any of the items listed in the image below is available for you william-james88? If so, something weird is going on for me.

On the same subject, often the add-block disrupt some site functions like preventing essential windows or buttons to appear. It's designed this way on purpose. So just deactivate your add-block for that site. That is, if the site is not a pirate/porn site, or anything shady of course.

The hunt is ON! For anyone in the US who was not able to preorder a Cosmos, he has been found at a US Walmart. The Valley View Walmart in Virginia to be exact. Below is an image of the case Wreckgar39 found, confirming the case contents. They also found leader class Scourge and both sighitngs were posted on the TFW2005 boards.

In Canada, the voyagers were found. It was said that the case content was 2 Overrides and 1 Hauler. The voyagers were found in Ontario by a few Canadians and the specific sighting in the picture below was poste by Renegade Decepticon.

You can still
A) find him in stores
B) cancel your pre-orders and just buy a case from Robot Kingdom (that's what a friend of mine did)


A) Due to being a Union Controlled city, NYC does NOT allow Walmart to do business. If it did I'd be far happier and poorer.

B) Back in the day I used to do a lot of business with Robot Kingdom but I discovered their prices were comparable to BBTS and 2-day Fed Ex shipping. Since there are still shipping issues from overseas it really doesn't pay. Also, between Walmart.com and Pulse I got everyone else.

We are providing an update to our original article, found below. After we posted it, TF fan Josh reported to us on Facebook that both the leader class and voyager class Velocitron toys were also found in Georgia. It is his image that you see in the thumbnail. This means that the entire line has been found in the US. Walmart is currently in the middle of a back to school reset (as is Target) so while many stores may have them, they may not have the time to put them up yet or are waiting for the proper time coinciding with their reset plans.

I like how classics hound looks, and he has ankle tilt. I also have a POTP Neachcomber in hand, and I'll never replace him. (Probably not even if the slider breaks)

I don't understand why try scalp something like that. I know it's a Walmart exclusive in the states but at least in the UK and, I'm guessing a good portion of Europe, there's a number of retailers who will be carrying them. Smyths have got them now (we've already had restocks of Override and Hauler) and IndemandToys have said they'll have them if they haven't already.
I expect there's going to be quite a decent amount of stock if they're able to get them to a number of UK retailers and the JP releases will likely be like the Netflix stuff which ended up showing on a lot of JP goods stores online.
He may be a challenge to get now, especially from what I hear about Walmarts seemingly poor store distribution but give it a bit and he should be relatively easy to get, surely?
But I guess scalpers are going to scalp and try take advantage of new product just to get that early profit before it becomes easy to get.
Also, while it'll probably come out as a slight repaint or with different accessories in a multipack, I doubt they're going to lock Cosmos behind that exclusive line for good. A lot of people have waited a while for a good new Cosmos it'd make no sense (plus gotta get that mold usage up to make up for the cost of a new mold being made in the first place)

I've learned to be patient. Most things end up in my area at one point or another. Been hunting today but nothing yet. I'm thinking by the first week of the month I should start seeing new stuff like this.

Possibly, but in this case it's nothing like Origin Bee where it's very niche and only seen in one Episode while Cosmos was in several episodes. So I'm not expecting to be quite as abundant as Bee was towards the end, though I do hope I'm able to find it easier than it is to get a Walgreens Exclusive!

The fortunate aspect of Cosmos is that there shouldn't be any vehicle licensing to worry about so the odds of him being reissued are good.

I wouldn't compare this to Origin Bee. For a lot of us Walmart didn't restock the Netflix lines after the initial stock so if you missed the popular figures you never saw them. Then there was all the Walmart.com cancelations that just compounded the issue. Smyth's might be getting full cases of Cosmos but it's unlikely Walmart will since they're the ones that wanted him at one per case in the first place. Unfortunately scalpers might be the best way to get him for a lot of people just like Netflix Bumblebee. We'll see, but considering how quickly the Legacy beasts are selling out I'm not particularly optimistic, not in my area anyway.

I did stop by a couple Walmarts today, one of them got a case of Scourge and a case of Override, so they are getting case packs of specific figures. Only time will tell if we see cases of Cosmos come in. Also those Legacy Beasts arnt selling out where I'm at.

Scourge is the only leader so he would be a solid case. Are there mixed cases of Override and Hauler?

In my area the Legacy beasts sell out in about a week after stocking, my local Walmart has restocked 2 times from being completely sold out, there's currently just one Nightprowler and one Sandstorm.

not sure if there are mixed cases for the voyagers, but I did get a look at the shipping box for the Override case and it does specifically say Voyager Override on it
