While not a physical retail sighting, Amazon is one of the biggest Transformers toy retailers in the world, so we would remiss not mentioning that the latest voyager class Studio Figures are now in stock and shipping. You will find links below along with a video review of Galvatron from Chuckdawg and Emgo. Enjoy!

Oh man, that's such bad luck. I hope your family gets better soon and that you can finish isolation in time to see the re-release.

Your custom paintjobs look stunning, as usual. They'd look awesome displayed in front of a background that evokes the alleyway where they first meet Sam!

Thank you very much! I think when I get Prime and Jazz all the way complete I'll have to try and do something like that background, that's a great idea!

All these figures are great, I'm so glad to have them!

Super bummer dude, sorry to hear that!

So I got Thundercracker and Galvatron this weekend and got to mess with them.

Thundercracker is really nice, and might be my favorite of the 3 versions of this mold so far. It's also kinda awesome that we now have 3 versions and none are straight repaints yet. And the mold is fun, if a bit ungainly at times. I prefer the gas mask head too, it is nice.

Sadly Galvatron is not very good. I was hoping in hand he would be better, but he actually feels worse. It is very obvious to me he was a figure that needed a leader budget and got stuck at a voyager. The paint work, while more extensive than his last attempt, being only half done actually makes him look worse. And the legs and square torso just don't look that good, he is too stocky compared to how he should look.

i applaud the attempt to integrate his transformation better, but in practice, he needed more engineering and more paint. He needed that leader budget. I hate to say it, but I think this is a SS release where the original release might actually still be the better figure.

Bummer about Galvatron. My Galvy and TC shipped from Deep Discount, I'm a little concerned, but I've never handled the original truck so I wonder if my first impressions will be different.

I'm not a huge fan of Galvatron as a whole, nothing about his character really appeals to me the way the other four versions of Megatron do, he just feels like a footnote in the franchise. Sentinel Prime was a better villain. But now I have a couple KSI bots so not having some version of him has left a gap in my collection.

Whan I first saw this figure, I thought it was really bed, but I also thought "Well, maybe once I'll watch a video about it I'll change my opinion". I was right: now I think it's quite ugly.

Looks like if Megatron swallowed a washing machine. Ther's even the porthole.

I just transformed him again, and going to robot mode the transformation was fun. I like how involved it is and how it does a decently good job of hiding away the alt mode. The robot mode is warming on me some, but I just mostly see the flaws unfortunately

Thanks to Hasbro Pulse, we have word that live action movie fans are about to get a very special treat in honor of 2022 being the 15th Anniversary of the Live Action film franchise. That treat is a 5-pack of the original Autobot team from the 2007 movie!

The new multi-pack consists of the original 5 on-screen Autobots: Optimus Prime, Ironhide, Ratchet, Bumblebee, and Jazz. Optimus utilizes the 2nd version of the voyager mold with the more screen accurate chest, Ratchet comes with his original release saw, Bumblebee uses the later movie 1 tooling, while Ironhide and Jazz use their only mold releases to date. The figures have also been repainted with some additional paint apps, most noticeably some extra silver on Ironhide and Ratchet as well as gold highlights on Jazz.

As is typical for Studio Series, the set also comes with a backdrop, or in this case, 2 backdrops, one showing the alley where the 5 Autobots originally united, and a 2nd showing the Witwicky household where they tried to hide to hilarious effect from Sam's parents.

The preorder is stated on Pulse to be an Amazon exclusive, and retails for $141.99, a fair price given current deluxe and voyager prices. The preorder is currently open for Pulse premium members and should be open around 2 for non-Premium members. We are awaiting Amazon preorders.

Can't really order Pulse Exclusives here so....

This is cute, and I like how it it comes with two different backdrops, but I'm not sure I can justify paying that much money for two moulds I already have (Ironhide and Bumblebee), two that I never liked to begin with (Optimus and Ratchet), and one that's just OK but I'm in no hurry to own again (Jazz).

That’s so cool! A great chance for people to get Ironhide and Prime in particular with how expensive they are these days. Jazz’s darker silver paint looks awesome, much improved from the original release! I like the darker windows on Bee, but I’m not sure if the yellow plastic is different.

I already have all these guys so I don’t have the funds to go buying them all again, but I think this set is awesome and definitely what the line needed right now!

It is awesome, isn't it?! I am sold with the backdrops, I will definitely keep these 5 together with one of those backdrops, it was meant to be.

I am now extra shocked that, 4 years later, we are getting an Ironhide again at last, but we still haven't got the DotM version

Ahhh, thanks. Hope it shows up there then for pre-order. :DANCE:

Or if anyone has a link to the pre-order....

and the good version of Prime, not the first one with the odd looking chest windows.

Prime alone is going for close to the price of this set.

Had I the money, I'd preorder this. The 2007 movie rekindled my love for the franchise and brought me on board with collecting.

Owch on the pricing here at £150 for two voyagers, 2 deluxes and a borderline core class Ratchet (vehicle mode wise) and most of them were on deep discount when first released. Will be nice if it gets a counterpart decepticon set at some point though.

Amazing. Everything you said here... is wrong.

$33.99 per voyager plus $24.99 per deluxe makes this set retail price. Ratchet isn't even close to core, he is the tallest of the 3 deluxes.

And none of these ended up on discount. Ironhide and this mold of Prime sold quick and are extremely expensive now, as much as this whole set. Jazz also sold quickly. Ratchet and Bee moved well. helicopter Dropkick and SS86 blurr and kup are the only ones who really have had issues moving, the rest have been reliable movers.

I think he was referring to the UK market for these but even still you can't get these now without paying through the nose on the secondary market. Of course this set is perfect for those who missed out or new collectors.
