Do you all remember the Beast Mode Bumblebee toy that was revealed a little while back? It was Bumblebee in his Camaro form but he had extra bird bits for a "super" robot mode. Well, we know an Optimus was coming too and now we finally have images.

Of course, no surprise, the beast mode acts as extra parts to create a super robot mode with beast elements. In this case, it is a white lion, which is a great choice given the existence of Leo Prime. You can see the images below. You'll notice that Prime here has the same alt mode we've seen for most of the line, which is an off road truck.

April 12th is still the expected official release date for the toys, right?

It's hard to keep up with this new Rise of the Beasts toyline with there being so much product all coming out at the same time across the globe. When it comes to the US, almost everything has been released, now that the voyagers and flex changers have been found. Both the voyagers (which includes Optimus Prime and Optimus Primal) and the flex changers (the one steps) were found at Walmarts across the nation.

You'll also notice the absence of the main villain, Scourge, in these more kid friendly lines. Well, there's more of him coming. We now have images of Battle Changers Scourge (simple conversion toy between scout and deluxe class) and Beast Changer Scourge (with Scorponok armor). We also have images of the rest of the single released deluxes. So now you have even more options to buy everyone's favourite Bespectacled Autobot, Wheeljack.

Really, you'll do that to me? I haven't had to work the corner for a week, it's been nice. Also, check your mail.

Those Scourge toys look pretty fun!

Both of these Scourges looks very GOOD. I'd buy them if my local stores bother having them on their shelves.

Canada is the only country respecting the street date for some reason, so cone next week we should be seeing a lot of new stuff on shelves.

The Rise of the Beasts news just keeps on truckn'. We had showed images of Beast Mode Optimus Prime and Battle Changers Scourge earlier. Well now we have more stock images of them in good definition.
We also have the stock images for the deluxe toys, the Voyager toys, Battle Changers Mirage and the Wheeljack two pack

Enjoy!

Man, these figures are looking GOOD. It's funny when you remember that a lot of these figures were supposed to be out BEFORE the Studio Series releases. I wonder if I'll find the SS figures unnecessary once I get more in hand.

IDK if these are for little kids I guess it's OK. I just hope they make something better looking for serious (adult) collectors. Worst case will have to wait for 3rd or 4th party production to make something that is worth attention.

Some very "TF Prime Beast Hunters" vibes coming from that "Beast Mode" Optimus. Right down to that can-opener sword...

This the third time we've seen a Prime toy with that truck mode and I really hope he has it in the film. Also I'm liking this beast Prime more then the Bumblebee. I could see myself getting this one.

Fellow Seibertronian Whirlkick has found some Rise of the Beasts toys in the UK at Smyth's. You can read their report below. We also have reports of the 2 Beast Mode Bumblebee and Optimus toys out at Smyth's in Gillingham, first posted here by TFMJ where we can see them next to various other ROTB toys like the Smash Changers.

"The RoTB mainline figures are now available in different places the UK, such as Smyth's and The Entertainer. It seems the embargo date was April 10th so the floodgates have now opened!

The figures are showing as available on the Smyth's website, which includes figures like the mainline deluxes. When I was at Smyth's in Watford today, none of the figures were out on the shelves yet, as they hadn't yet allocated space for the new figures as there's so many of them and so little shelf space for Transformers. The UK community should keep an eye out for TF sales for non-ROTB figures at Smyth's!
I had to ask someone working there to get the figures from the back for me, which they did. I bought the mainline deluxe Bee and the Optimus/Chainclaw pack. I've included some photos, including a side by side of mainline Bee with SS Bee."
