Do we really know for sure that there is one? Could it have been rumor, mistranslation, or incorrect assumption on someone's part?

yes we do. it was displayed at NYCC

In a word, BEAST!

Can't wait to see the larger size class figure.

:O

Where do the Beast Mode hind legs vanish in to?

Also, is Hasbro FINALLY ditching the "Powerizer" gimmick on Voyagers?

I'm kind of underwhelmed at his robot mode. Hopefully his Leader incarnation will be more impressive.

wow. what a lame gun

ok, I'll admit, I'm interested now. I'm definitely holding out on waiting to see more of the "leader" class version, but this guy has me sold. Hasbro, congratulations on a Beastformer who doesn't just standup, and have a fold down beast head to reveal the bot head. I think the beast mode hind legs fold up and become the back half of the bot mode legs, but they're well hidden and I for one like how it's done, from what I can see. 2 distinct modes ... well played!

What do you mean "finally"? It was the gimmick for one size class in one toyline. Only 8 figures, assuming Skyquake ever makes it to market. And it hasn't even been a full year. I know it wasn't a popular gimmick but you're making it sound like it infected the entire brand.

waist in beast mode are fron shell of his legs his beast mode legs are there they form heal while waist in beast form form front half of his legs to make it fill out more brawny looking.

look at his waist in beast mode were back legs are jointed at you see same yellow v shape desing on his lower legs

forogt to mention he looks like scourge from energon series his 2 guns in beast mode are replaced by 2 heads bot mode simaler in comparisons

That looks beautiful. I'm probably going to wait on the larger figure, as it seems to be the more scale accurate figure after watching the promo of season 3 at NYCC, but Hasbro is really cleaning up their act here.

Now, if we get our own mold of Smokescreen & Shockwave, Hasbro just won.

Where do you get any indication he meant the entire brand? The "Powerizer" gimmick was strictly PRiD, so I'm sure he was referring to those Voyagers.

Looks pretty sweet correct me if i'm wrong but is this the first time we've seen spring-fire missiles on a voyager since HFTD?

Yep. We're also getting missiles for the larger Predaking (although I can't tell if they're spring-loaded). Also, Beast Hunters Wheeljack's Falcon Spear has a firing capture ring and Lazerback has firing acid missiles. I'm so happy they stopped ignoring firing projectiles.

The "energon series" includes Armada, Energon, and Cybertron, and it's called the Unicron Trilogy.

On that note, Scourge was in Transformers Cybertron, not Energon.

My point is that he's making such a fuss about it that you would think the problem was more wide-reaching than it really is.

You sound like this is the first time they've ever done a beast figure whose transformation wasn't just "stand up on limbs and fold down the head".

What happened to that big ass version of Predaking from the initial scans of Comic Con's prototype? I actually loved the size of that said Predaking.

That's the bigger size class figure. This is the Voyager. Different size class = different toy.

You think he makes it sound more widespread because he used the word "finally." You're keying in on a word that defines a long time. A long time can vary, it doesn't have to be more than a year. 8 months can be considered a "long time." Let's not forget that the PRiD Voyager figures will be on shelves a little while longer, which will probably hit your "full year" minimum.

Hmm. I'm rethinking my preorder, here....

On the one hand, he looks awesome. On the other, I forgot we were receiving a Weaponizers size version. However...the Weaponizers have been really shoddy looking to me, I can't imagine he'd be much better. I know we saw pics of it, but I'm assuming that once he hits production, he'll be hardly better than Optimus and Bumblebee now.

I'm conflicted...I think I might just stick with the Voyager.
