Are there any Transformers Kiss Players fans out there? You have to admit, we did get some fun exclusive G1 cassettes out of it, and that means there's redecos Hasbro had not gotten to yet. And that's what this SDCC exclusive set is all about. There are 2 big exclusives for 2026 and one of them is Blaster with the 3 casettes that were characters first released in the Kiss Players line: Rosanna, Glit and Sundor.
The other set is deluxe Optmius Prime (with a new headsculpt) with a G1/G2 trailer and a brand new smol Jazz figure, with a package referencing classic cereal boxes. There will be a limited amount available on Pulse at the time of SDCC 2026. You can check with images below along with Hasbro's livestream, which you can see here:



For those curious, here are the galleries of the original Kiss Players G1 casettes:

SUNDOR: /transformers ... or/1156/1/
ROSANNA: /transformers ... na/1157/1/

I'm totally sold on both sets! Also, calling it now, Jazz is an early preview of a later Pretender Jazz.

Cereal Prime set looks awesome.

Not really feeling JEM Blaster though, but I guess it's kind of nice. That transforming guitar/key tar is kind of cool. "Blaster's his name!" :-D

I'd like this Blaster better if it was a new character instead of just him in a new deco, but then maybe some fiction will repurpose it into a new character, ala Glit into SG Ravage. Maybe it's Bluster's new look, or maybe I shouldn't give credence to Zobovor's idea that cartoon miscolors of Blaster and Soundwave indicate the existence of more than 2 Communicators/Cassette-Guardians. (It's not like I buy into all his theories)

Now we need updated Cobalt Sentries, then Legacy updates of the 4 combiner pairs.

Cerealptimus Prime and Jazz...are just making me hungry for Trypticon's Titan Master Crunch.

Let me get this right. There are NO Kiss players in the new set?!
What a tease.

Glad I'm not the only one feeling outrageous at Blasters new deco...

While that's obviously not a set of hair curlers, that Jem Blaster will be Karmen in my collection. Blaster's long lost and never seen before sister.

And I'm going to need a Bumblebee, Grimlock and Starscream to go along with that Jazz as soon as possible.

I'd really love that sick Blaster set, but I bet it will be nope'd priced from resellers.

A minor nitpick. Breakfastimus Prime's trailer needs some stickers on the inside to make it (snap, crackle) pop.
