We have a Listing for Transformers Age of the Primes Big Convoy

Posted by william-james88 Mar 30, 2025 at 3:09pm CDT 59,175 views
Thanks to JTPrime17, we now have our first listing for the 2026 Age of the Primes line and it is none other than Big Convoy. Now we knew he'd be coming in one way or another, with him appearing on previous artwork and we also had a rumour of him coming out as probably Made to Order. Well it turns out he won't be made to order, but will instead just be a standard retail release, coming out as a leader class figure.

Here is the listing:

Tra Gen Prime LDR Big Convoy
Product Number: G1906

More Bots. More News. More Awesome.

I'm hoping that it's no taller than the original, since the three main hero Convoys of Japanese Beast Wars are all supposed to be equal in height to each other in their organic beast robot forms.

And I guess we'll have to wait and see what name they sell him under, since Hasbro has never used the "Convoy" name for a Japanese-original character at US mass retail.

I am definitely interested. I am curious how much of a shell former it will be.

"Big Prime" would be hysterical, however unlikely. :lol:

I was going to suggest "Mammuthus Prime" as a joke, but that actually works, the more I think about it.

The more I've seen of the new Aerialbots, the better and better they're looking to be. While there are a few glaring issues for me with the combined form, even that is looking good, and it's a huge improvement over the CW version; while show/screen accuracy isn't a factor for everyone like it is for me and others, the engineering and combining system alone makes this new set better. It was a pretty decent letdown that these "ginormous, powerful robots" ended up so flimsy and unstable in toy form with the CW versions. I'm 98% sure I'll be selling my UW Superion. And for that matter, same for my UW Bruticus. As much as I wanted to like that set, the combined form just didn't deliver; not only does it lack in terms of appearance, again, the stability issue pretty much ruined it for me.
I think it's a safe bet that the Protectobots will be next. After Menasor, Defensor was the weakest CW combiner imo. I just hope these all get released next year. Maybe Onslaught will be the CC release for April, and Hot Spot will be the CC figure for August.

For anyone who preordered Silverbolt through Amazon, keep an eye out; my copy is supposed to arrive this Thursday.

Supposedly Powerglide and Swerve are coming next year so that sounds great! Finally be able to knock a big one off the list with I think leaving only Seaspray left.
Can't say I'm all that interested in the others on this list though.

Haven't fully decided on getting any Combaticons yet so Blast Off and brawl are an uncertainty as well as Quintus and Amlagamous Prime.

Just heard about these leaked listings as well.

Onslaught will be a Commander Class release. I'm sure there's at least a bit more coming as well; I would think Swindle will be released next year to finish the Combaticons.

So Brawl is a voyager but Blast Off isn't? I guess Onslaught won't have the same setup as Motormaster and Silverbolt. And this means we're getting a voyager Swindle.

Will that Prime Cliffjumper be the one from the Target 4-pack?

Sureshot is getting a release, I thought he was cancelled.

Still no Seaspray, but it's good to see Quickstrike. Probably pass on all the others.

IIRC, I think the canceled release was for one of the Legacy lines, meaning it's getting revived for AOTP instead.

But we can assume it's the figure that was intended earlier, correct?

Now I wonder if we'll get a new, actual Targetmaster Crosshairs.

That would me nice, but I think Point Blank's in more need of another redo, preferably a Voyager if that's what it takes to get all his accessories and proportions right. Someday.

But yeah, Crosshairs also deserves a better vehicle mode than Siege gave him. It's kind of an inversion of how the 3 '87 'Con Targetmasters came out so good in TR, but only Triggerhappy was easy to find. I have high hopes for Sureshot, but I always liked PB and CS so much better that a perfect AotP toy of him would ironically be kind of frustrating.

Then again, I've hung onto my Roulette this long to reenact the sharpshooting competition from his TFU entry...

I’m disappointed that Nexus will almost definitely not be a combiner. I know that in the AOTP box arts he’s based on his Aligned iteration, I was just hoping that they would do something combinery.

Finally, Powerglide! I wonder what his release in the E-Hobby "Gobots" colors would be? :-?

No Aerialbots? So we'll have Bruticus and Superion missing two limbs each?

This is the most surprising one to me for a few reasons

First of all, with Cybertron Sideways coming out, I had all but given up hope of an Armada Sideways releasing.

Secondly, he's a Voyager? That makes me wonder if he might be deluxe-sized and come with his Minicons.

Definitely looking at Blastoff,
Maybe Smokescreen to complete my Datsuns.
Brawl, though why is he a voyager? Is he including the Bruticus thigh?
Powerglide definitely
Hopefully, Armada Sideways is not a Walmart capsule elusive like Cybertron Sideways.
And Onslaught.

Swindle is going to be the last guy?

He's the only one that actually requires his mini-cons. So it makes sense to make him a voyager to be able to include them.

Without his minicon his main gimmick is rendered moot.

I just hope he's not a Walmart capsule exclusive.
