Oooooo, a RED figure of Prime Starscream? That's pretty neato.

Or he can be something else entirely, like MV5. All we know is that we can't trust the "prefix" given if it's "MV". We don't know if it's automatically going to be SS86 instead. We can assume that with Sunstreaker, since there is no Bayverse alternative, but I wouldn't assume anything for Megatron yet. Also, I updated the full listings here now that we have confirmation of vendor codes.

It's not rumored, I just wildly speculated and wishfulfilled because it says MV7 on the listing, which is Rise of the Beasts, lol. Could just be a 2007 misnomer or something. Megatron says MV6, so he's either based on Bumblebee concept art, or SS86 miscategorized, like it happened with Wheelie.

Curiously, has Sunstreaker ever appeared in modern animation? I don't know much about any of these shows but what few episodes I've seen of each I don't recall ever seeing a version of Sunstreaker.
So it would seem to be ER version. However in the recent updated info it's listed as MV6, which I would take to mean the 6th Movie but I also don't recall a Sunstreaker in that either. Other Bots like sweep clearly indicate 86, so I'm not gonna get my hopes up and we've got a long time to wait.
There was also the rumor Sunstreaker may be packed with Hound, so if that's not the case it opens up that to more speculation as to who it might be.

Now that you mention it, nope, no Sunstreaker has appeared onscreen in any Transformers cartoon since the 1980s.Till-all-R1 wrote:Overcracker wrote:Please let that Sunstreaker be SS-86 and be using the Earthrise mold... pretty please....

The news article says "the designation of the characters is said to be erroneous at times. Meaning that "MV6" can refer to "86" as we saw with 86 Wheelie which was listed for vendor sites as "Transformers Generation Studio Series Core Tf7 Wheelie".Till-all-R1 wrote:So it would seem to be ER version.

If Grimlock was the Action Master version I might be interested. But there's probably a 1% chance it is.

Yeah that's something that came up with my Top 5 Sunstreaker list. Unlike other G1 characters, who I'd argue are as prominant as him, he didn't turn into a legacy character. No Bayverse nameslap, nothing in Unicron trilogy or Alligned, ect, so very few toys.

I guess Hot Shot kinda took over his role of "self-absorbed yellow Autobot sportscar", like how he also took over both Bumblebee and Hot Rod's roles of "kid-appeal Autobot" and "cocky young Autobot car with untapped leadership potential" for a time, too.william-james88 wrote:Sabrblade wrote:Now that you mention it, nope, no Sunstreaker has appeared onscreen in any Transformers cartoon since the 1980s.Till-all-R1 wrote:Overcracker wrote:Please let that Sunstreaker be SS-86 and be using the Earthrise mold... pretty please....

Coming to us once again from PrimeVsPrime, we have a new review for an upcoming (though yet to be officially revealed) new figure, that of Studio Series 86 Leader Class Snarl. The fourth of the five Dinobots, Snarl is looking very accurate to his extremely brief appearance in the 1986 movie, and includes his sword as an accessory. His transformation, as PvP points out, is very reminiscent of his cartoon transformation, and includes some neat tricks. Check out some screenshots from the video, including comparisons with his most recent new figure, 2018's Power of the Primes Deluxe Class Snarl, as well as some sweet shots with the rest of the Dinobots released so far. And let's not forget the video itself!
So what do you think about this latest addition to the Leader Class Dinobots? Yay or nay? Let us know below!

Does He really have that crack all over the head?

Just like his G1 toy, the dino head splits in half when he's in robot mode. PvP's copy looks like it's got issues staying tabbed together.

I've bought and opened 2 of the dinobots. Fiddly pieces of crap! Joints loose. Floppy limbs. I won't be spending the money on another one. I'm staring at the brontosauraus head where my 3rd copy snapped off.

The only thing I don't like too much- as PvP mentioned- is that Slug and Sludge both have the gold looking heads and Snarl has that yellow-orange head. So they don't quite match in alt mode

Hell yeah Mohawk and LEADER TLK Megatron!
Let's hope they will not mess this Megs up. Forget the "fat" AoE leader. Take cues from the stellar voyager and iron out the kinks.

How are we saying the same thing? Rodimus Prime says Shockwave needs his armor pieces to make an alt mode and I'm saying he doesn't.

No he doesn't. The base figure just turns into his normal gun mode without the extra pieces
You are both saying the same thing.

Which altmode? Because Seige Shockwave have several.
No parts needed for the original G1 "submarine" (wink wink) mode.
Parts needed for that bad-ass Space Yamato style space battleship.

I'm actually excited for R.E.D. Skywarp just so I can put him with the G.I.Joe Classified collection.

Well, that's what I mean. He does have an alt mode even without the armor. That just gives him a bigger alt mode but he doesn't need it.
This is all probably moot anyway because it's probably a Voyager of Bumblebee Shockwave

Probably the same as the core class, but bigger.

So they announced more RED figures. I think I've pretty much had it with that line. I've just been so disappointed with the shoddy materials they use for them. It hampers pretty much everything about the figures. It limits the articulation, it affects how crisp the details are in the sculpting, it affects how clearly the paint applies, everything. I'm not wasting any more time or money on these, unless they completely revamp the materials they use to make them, so they don't look and feel as if they were made out of old pencil erasers.
