Video Showing Who the Cyberverse Toys are Made For

Wouldn't count it as news but I [i]do[i] get the idea of Cyberverse being a line for kids. It's just a shame they feel less impressive than the other stuff meant for kids back then like the Unicron Trilogy, Animated, or the Fast Action Battlers of the first two movies.

I think we should leave that for the kids to decide.

Mine did. They went straight from Rescue Bots to Generations because they think Cyberverse toys are junk.

Was expecting a lot more 35 year old + salt but okay.

I for one love the Cyberverse show as a 36 year old. It felt more G1 than a lot of shows from recent memory. I enjoyed it soo much more than Earthrise and Siege and that was made for me.

I also like the Cyberverse toys enough to collect most of the line. I'm probably one of the small group of adult collectors who likes non-complex transformations. That's why I do have a lot of movie bots but am not enjoying them like Combiner Wars and up.

Can't wait for one of my kids to be old enough to notice and enjoy Transformers!

As far as I remember, there was always just 1 line of transformers out at a time. Then universe/classics happened. Since then no adult collector should have the gall to complain about a toyline that wasn't thinking of the collectors.

Yeah, I can look at the Cyberverse line, judge it next to the other lines and give them a hard pass. They need to be simple for kids to work out/remember, have little-no accessories so there's less to lose/swallow and need to be the right ratio of being as durable as possible while being lightweight. I swear my '96 Optimus Primal could make short work of windows.

Right now we have Kingdom, generation selects, 2 separate studio series lines, masterpiece, R.E.D, and I'm probably missing some. Maybe we shouldn't be too upset at a toyline that features toys.

Stuff like this reminds me why I get back into franchises like the Transformers.

Mind you that any kids I do have will not be introduced to Kiss Players. But I also expect them to not be a Rewind like I tend to be. Because it is more fun thinking about them having Optimus Primal be the protector of a Lego city. Or even have Black Zarak's deluxe Headmaster form go against Monkey D. Luffy since both look like pirates (and not because both have X-shaped scars on their chests).

Man... Now I also hope that Transformers (or something like it) will be around in the future.

The ones who complain about Cyberverse being "kid stuff" are exactly like Bay-haters jumping into Bayverse threads just to hate on everything.
Narrow sighted people who get off on hate and complaining.

I'm really, REALLY glad that Cyberverse and Rescue bots are a thing. Because not many toddlers or 5 years old can jump straight to Generations and have fun. The kids will make precious memories, then maybe move on to Generations as they get older. Then they enter the pre-teen years and they will think that "toys are for BABIES" and move away from the fandom. Then they become adults. Those Cyberverse/Rescue Bots memories will come back... And then, start collecting again but this time, Generations, MP, 3P, and so on.

I bet that's the story for many of us. Too bad so many forgot it.

Also, while I remember, Sports Direct in the UK is doing discount Transformers, including Top Gun Crossover Jet for £25

Wrong thread for this. Unless that's specifically about Cyberverse toys.
Please repost in the U.K sightings thread:
united-kingdom-transformers-sightings-t42.php

When I was a kid I loved the more realistic adult/mature looking stuff. I hated the baby cartoons like Smurfs & Snorks. What they did to the Gobots cartoon made me sick. And I couldn't stand the Filmation MOTU cartoon. In 81 MOTU was aimed towards teens but in 83 the cartoon dropped it from teen to toddler. As a kid I loved the more mature realistic cartoons like Transformers, GI Joe, M.A.S.K., Robotech & vehicle Voltron.

If I was a kid now I would be into Transformers:Prime but definitely not Cyberverse. I would be collecting Generations & ignoring baby crap like Cyberverse or Bumblebee Adventures.

How old were they when they went from Rescue Bots to Generations? My 3 year old tried generations (like T30 Roadbuster) but found it too hard. So he went from Rescue Bots to Cyberverse. He really likes the quick conversion since he can replicate what he sees in either the G1 show/movie or the Cyberverse show and they are more show accurate than Rescue Bots (Rescue bots keeps messing with the alt modes).

As do I. And yes, it feels very G1. It was very telling that the creators developped a show that took place before the autobots in the ark woke up and then did a time jump, skipping all the Autobots vs Decepticons on Earth stuff to get to the War on Cybertron. It's like they are having the G1 show serve as the adventures that happened during that time and don't rethread on it, which I find pretty cool.

And I really like Cyberverse's approach to integrating many different continuities within a unified G1 type story and cast. So you get Cheetor, Skybyte, Lockdown and even an homage to Tarn all in the same show, along with new characters.

It goes further back than that, when Machine Wars was out at the same time as Beast Wars.

Yeah, the toyline may be pretty weak but I like the show. I think it's better binged than watched bit-by-bit so you can get a bit of a small movie from each season (works especially well for Season 1).

Wait, adults are complaining about the cyberverse line being made for children??? Really?? That’s a thing!? Step up your game folks….you have vintage g1, beast wars, Japanese g1, rid 2001, unicron trilogy, bayverse, tf primeverse, idw, 3rd party, thrilling 30’s/gen, wfc/foc, and latest - the wfc trilogy with netflix, Amazon, and gen selects /hasbro exclusives!! And funko pops and bot bots to collect….ain’t nobody got time to complain about cyberverse being adult friendly when there is a housefull of tformers out there for us to collect….with more on the way…..good day folks and all the luv!

Starbuck14 wrote:Wait, adults are complaining about the cyberverse line being made for children??? Really??

I could understand if that was the ONLY toy line produced. But as you point out, the "adult" options far outweigh the kids ones.

So to me, the complainers are either oblivious people who miss the entire point, or they are really egotistical.

Well, it is the only toy line for the characters depicted in the show.

Mistaken Table was referring to mainline toys. Machine Wars was retailer exclusive.

That show us a "kid show" so it's irrelevant.
Plus, the DELUXES exist. There is no excuse.

Every TF show with a toyline is a kid show. Always have been, even back in the advancely articulated days of the Beast Era.

And the Deluxes are selective and limited in this character choices. Anyone who wants a normal figure of Shadow Striker with standard articulation is up the creek.

Regardless of any Cyberverse toy, Kingdom Cheetor is pretty mediocre in its own right.

That appears to be the consensus, even in the Kingdom thread, as I can't speak to it because I have no desire to own one.

I can't say K. Cheetor is "mediocre" but there's room for improvement. Play-wise, Cyber Cheetor looks definitely better.

I have heard some crap from locals and to me it sounds the latter. Remember it is a clown world and everyone is butt-hurt about anything and everything.

I am just glad that it is 2021 and there are still Transformers products out for us to buy.

They can do whatever they want but my problem with it is there are some sick designs getting wasted on trash toys like that Gradius Starscream.

When I was 4 years old I had Beast Wars B'Boom and I could get it between beast and robot just fine.

It was I believe, may be one of the reasons the line didn't do too well. It would have been interesting had it been more well recieved, and led to later waves, would they have been further repaints or would it have tied into Beast Wars We'll never know...

All of this stuff was made for little kids under 10, including the 81 MOTU comics. Nobody made action figures and cartoons (for US TV) for teens and adults in the 80s. "More mature realistic cartoons".

Forgot to react to that because I facepalmed so hard, I knocked myself out.

As a young child in the 1980's, I never saw those show as "mature". At all. Because I've seen "mature". See, as a Québécois, our Saturday mornings at Radio Canada was filled with "cartoons" imported from France. France was really into anime hardcore so in Québec, we got so many anime by extension. The "toy commercials" cartoons were relegated to the other one French language channel out of 3. Those shows didn't last for long because Karens went to war against those and won.

Anyway, back to Radio Canada's anime. Those anime were filled with mature themes and they never shied to show actual DEATHS on screen. Goldorak (U.F.O Robo Grendizer), Albator (Captain Herlock), Le Petit Castor, Astro le Petit Robot (Astroboy), Demetan, Cat's Eye, and so on. Those shows were awesome and they made me a weeb decades before "weeb" was a term. Japan don't treat their children like idiots and it shown.

Then, after around 1987, Radio Canada ditch ALL anime and the Saturday mornings literally turned into the Disney Chanel. No "toy commercial" cartoons" either at the other chanel, and the Karens even killed the French dub of the WWF. At 12, I felt like a nostalgic old fart...

Speaking of old farts, kids these days are damn lucky. Because we were too poor to have Cable as a child, I was stuck with only 3 French channels. A 4th one appeared when I was 11 though. That new channel only shown old show at it's beginning so I watch a lot of Flintstones (dubbed in Québécois French). I didn't knew a single English word at the time so I never watched the 2 English channels we had. That 5 or 6 chanel total.

Kids these days have an infinity of options with a million chanel and the internet at their fingertips. So they are not stuck at watching subpart shows or shows they don't like.

These days, if kids want to watch Transformers, they can watch any shows at any time however they want, whenever they want.

Karens be damned.

I think what happens is sometimes some fans take the events of TF:TM, and even GI Joe:TM (which arguably had a higher degree of violence), and project it onto the entire series, which isn't quite accurate.

While I do agree that all the toy-based animated series from the 80's were marketed towards younger children, I could see some of them at least being enjoyed by teens and even adults, even if they weren't the target audience.

I mean I know pop culture overall would like to place villains such as Megatron, Cobra Commander, Skeletor, and Mumm-Ra in the same villains old folks home. However, while they all had silly moments at times, I'd say Skeletor was by far the silliest. I remember my Dad complaining about how awfully silly he was, not so with some of the other villains.

The same could be said today. I've shown my kids a TON of older shows, but they have their own interests. I can enjoy some of the shows my kids watch. Others I just have to leave the room, because clearly, they aren't intended for me.

Also to be fair, the OP mentioned Robotech and Vehicle Voltron. Those shows had to be edited quite a bit to remove the more violent aspects of their original anime counterparts (Macross, Southern Cross, Mospeada) and for VV (Dairugger XV which IMHO is absolutely amazing and highly underrated). But with Robotech, I know the romance angle still came through quite a bit. But that is to be expected, even from an edited anime- a different culture that doesn't dumb down shows for kids as often.

Just as a brief example- Try watching the Dungeons and Dragons animated series vs He-Man and the Masters of the Universe (both premiered in 1983). Yes they are both for kids, but there is defintely a tonal difference.

Ah, reminds me of when I was a wee sprog with my Armada figures. I'm glad the target demographic enjoys the toys. As someone who grew up with the Unicron Trilogy, I'll always be able to appreciate simple figures with fun gimmicks, although I do wish Hasbro would cut down on collector-aimed content and focused on the kids, I feel like it isn't fair they get the short end of the toy quality stick.

I wouldn't say the short end per se, ever compared them to other toys of the same age range?

well g1 was also geared towards kids as was everything else in transformers up until playschools gobots and now rescue bots
do they think kids nowadays are less capable of playing with more complicated toys?

Ultra Markus wrote:well g1 was also geared towards kids as was everything else in transformers up until playschools gobots and now rescue bots

It's easy to think so, but I like to think it more as "more accessible" by lowering the difficulty bar. From One-Step to the Deluxes, and the option to "upgrade" to Generations, there's something for every difficulty and comfort level... like most of G1 did, really, not counting the My First Transformers range.

Speaking of Gobots...

Sabrina-Online #271: "He could just play with the packaging instead"

Ultra Markus wrote:do they think kids nowadays are less capable of playing with more complicated toys?

Know what? I think so.
Fisher Price Little People were 3X smaller back then in the late 1970's early 1980's. The Tonka trucks were made out of steel. Transformers at the time were quite complex for a kid so the "Rescue bots" equivalent were Gobots. But even then, metal and tiny parts galore. I played with a mechanical robotic arm that you control with 2 joysticks. It was hard but fun.

Also, playing "dangerous" games outside at recess and out of school was a thing.

But in current year, even grown adults are treated (and act) like toddlers . A result for overprotecting our children since at least 3 generations.

Siiiiiigh.................

I tend to agree. I mean I remember I was 9 when Jetfire came out in 1985, and my 11 year old friend got him. It was complicated, but not beyond our ability to enjoy. Transformers were definitely seen as a superior toy but also very expensive. My parents could get 4 He-Man figures for the cost of 1 average Transformer. Also if it came to choosing between one expensive Transformer vs a Castle Grayskull playset, obviously one goes a lot further than the other. Still, while I obviously am not a fan of Cyberverse, I understand their place. There is definitely some wide range for sure. The same age that targets Cyberverse also can attract some of the more complicated Lego sets, so there is some variance for sure.

Some 9 year olds might enjoy Cyberverse, and some might be into WFC, and some might be into SS.

Ultra Markus wrote:well g1 was also geared towards kids as was everything else in transformers up until playschools gobots and now rescue bots

Was all of G1 geared towards 3-5 year olds? I dont think so. With Cyberverse, you cover a younger audience and you can replicate the speed of transformation seen on screen with the one steps. Plus, G1 also had super simple toys too like the jumpstarters. Optimus prime and Bumblebee were ridiculously simple toys too. Cyberverse is bringing that spirit of easy transformations that some G1 toys had but standardising it per class and ensuring greater cartoon accuracy.

The generations lines is 8 years old + these days and the toys are more complex than G1 Jetfire. So theres no indication that they are dumbing things down for kids of the ages you mention. They just have a wider variety of product for a bigger age range from birth to pre adolescence.

The cyberverse line isnt meant for 8 year olds or over.

Also rather then dumbing down, companies want to save money where they can, this is we lost metal content and other things as the cost to male the toy rose, so Hasbro did what they could to make sure the profit ratio was the same.

I've not seen any WFC toy that is more complicated than the original Jetfire. That Macross Valkyrie design is pretty great from an engineering point of view. Only Masterpiece and 3P have I seen that are more complex.

Also if Cyberverse isn't for 8 year olds who is it for? 6-7 that's a pretty small range considering Rescue Bots is 3-5.

It has over lap with rescue bots.

5 is pretty old for rescue bots, 4 is borderline. They are ideal for 2-3. Cyberverse is 3-7, some classes work for younger kids, some for older. It has overlap with rescue bots. The boy in the video posted was 3.

And lots of generations toys (including the SS line) are more complicated than G1 Jetfire. Any Jetfire released in those lines was either as complex or more complex. Feel free to ask that question in either of those discussion threads for further discussion or confirmation.

couple things to catch up on.

Cheetor looks really good, I am very excited for him. He looks great! and a lot bulkier and more show accurate. Lovin' it.

Meteorfire is strangely fun, i still enjoy him, and the show did a good job of making me like him too.

Iaconus is not very good, but I am happy to have him. I am going to call my Kingdom ark bot Iaconus after this war titan.

People have been showing a lot of images of barren Transformers shelves lately, which doesn't just suck for us collectors but for kids wanting to buy toys with their birthday money or parents looking for Transformers toys. Well, looks like a new Cyberverse Dinobots Unite Subline is slowly making it's way onto Canadian and American shelves to start bringing more life to them. Canada just got the Dinobot combiners Bumblebeswoop and Slugtron. They retail for $36 CAD and were found at Walmart. Those two are the only ones that come in the cases being sent so the other dinobot combiners will appear in a different wave. The bigger Roll and Change Optimus Prime and Bumblebee toys were also found at Walmart and can be seen in the same image.

In the US, things are starting really slow with the first items coming to shelves being the reviled scout class figures. Reports come from all across the US. They are all rereleases with nothing new, but they do include Ramjet who some liked since he does give the illusion of fully transforming from one mode to the next. More are bound to come, especially since they are appearing in Canada.

If you have found them, share your sightings with our community in the sightings section and on our boards in your region related thread.

The reality of how messed up supply chains are right now hit me when some local Targets did their late summer toy reset and didn't even have Cyberverse stuff to fill the space with. Not finding desirable stuff is typical, but usually there's at least plenty of kid product when these hit. Not this time.

Obviously this is all anecdotal and potentially localized, but I've been collecting for a long time and brick and mortar has never been this devoid of TF product. I don't blame the stores or even Hasbro, stuff is just clogged up.

It's been the same here, especially after both Walmart and Target clearanced out the 1 Step figures. All that's left is some peg warming Deluxe figures (mostly Megatron and Shockwave). I've also been surprised by how empty the Rescue Bot section is. Though one of my local Walmarts did restock a bunch of RB Optimus and Bumblebee figures (vehicles, not the current Dino stuff), but put them on the Cyberverse 1 Step pegs. Oops, let's see how long it takes for those to get moved, if ever.

Emerje

Finally decided to get that seeker squadron pack. These figures are pretty neat but I wished that the bonus member was Splitstream instead of Thrust and that TC was clear like his teammates. Plus no landing gears make the planes tilt around.

Still for what they are, they are well worth the 13$CAN each toys.

It's a re-shell of Prowl

That didn't take long. After only a week of being found in Canada, the Transfomrers Cyberverse Dinobots Unite Roll N Change Optimus Prime and Bumblebee are appearing at US Walmarts as part of the back to school reset currently underway. Regardless of what you feel on the line, it's good to have some Transformers toys on shelves and we hope that means more is underway. Both are $50 and that hefty price tag is due to them being larger than even ultimate class Cyberverse figures, with more accessories (detachable armour) and lights and sounds. Intrepid TF fan Cardion took a bullet for all of us and bought the Optimus Prime figure on Amazon to see what it was all about and was rather surprised by this child's toy. You can read the full review below but in short, they seemed impressed with the auto converting gimmick which is more involved than previous attempts and they were surprised by the articulation in the upper half after assuming (as we all did) that this figure was just a brick. Of course, the gimmick being involved means there are lots of steps to get it back to vehicle mode and the lower half of the body is almost devoid of articulation as we all could guess.

Enjoy the pics and the review along with this video showing the gimmick.

First impression: He's okay.

The Negatives: The primary auto-transform, which is his big selling feature, is on a hair-trigger. This made him a bit of a pain to transform into truck. Plus, the auto-transform still requires a bit of shoulder manipulation. Also, those legs are both immobile and can do the splits. Pretty crazy.

The Positives: Upper body was more flexible and articulated than I expected. His head sculpt is a gorgeous show accurate representation, and his head can pivot! I love his weight. He feels very solid. I can imagine 8-year old me going crazy over the light and sound clips (very short though). The sword and claws are a nice touch, although I'm not a fan of the chest armor. He sizes pretty well with my one large Cyberverse Megatron.

Overall: Good toy. Fun. Probably could have waited for him to go on sale for $45 or $40 though. For what he is, I'm super-glad I got him.

TF fan Chico reached out to us to let us know that they found the Transformers Cyberverse Adventures Dinobots Unite Roll and Change Bumblebee at a Walmart in California for $49.67. While they only found Bumblebee, the toy's wavemate is Optimus Prime. These are both big toys that have an auto converting gimmick. Chuckdawg has a video review of the Optimus figure below. and I made a review of the Bumblebee figure, which I really did not like (would not recommend to parents for their kids).

chuckdawg1999 wrote:The Cyberverse line has always given us new and inventive ways to transform and play with our Transformers, the Roll and Change line is no different. Optimus Prime features lights and sounds as well as some snap-on Energon blue body armor. The included sword is a great weapon but is also used as a lock to the changing gimmick. While the price might be a bit high for most, the toy is a solid, beefy, fun figure.

The new Transformers Cyberverse Dinobots Unite combiners were found in Canada a little while ago (image of sighting below) and now we have a video review for both the Slugtron and Bumbleswoop combiners. Each of those consist of an Autobot or Decepticon paired up with a Dinobot. We will be getting a combiner for each of the five Dinobots, it seems. They use the same mechanisms as the RID crash combiners but are much larger, as you can see from comparisons in the videos.

Enjoy!
