I feel like whatever slot this (alleged) concept art figure is taking should have been a refresh of a different Sunstreaker and the development budget spent elsewhere.
But at least this Sunstreaker isn't fugly like that hideous Megatron. That Megatron looks like something that was initially made to the aesthetic... then smashed with a hammer and roughly glued back together.

I like the tron vibes on that alt mode, though I wish the photographer would move their fingers lol
I have the bee movie Brawn and hftd seaspray, might as well have this version as my sunstreaker instead of going for a 5 pack that has 4 figures I don't really need
Those forearm panels look very annoying though

Well, I don't agree for the bot mode, but I do agree that forcing him to be a triple-changer made his altmodes being too compromised. They should have just focused on the tank mode.
The 3P Megatank stay the best IMO, but he's grossly oversized to fit anywhere.

I'm... not sure on that. Robot mode looks more like G1 Sureshot, and while the alt mode is cool looking, I don't think it particularly screams Sunstreaker, especially in those colors, he feels too bright.

Yrah, he looks like a lost Classics mold.

Alt mode is kinda neat. Robot mode ok. Head is super ugly. Sunstreaker himself would not approve of this

Which means, basically, he looks even MORE pure G1 than the other Cybertron Bumblebee Movie designs, which is saying something...

At this point it feels more like they're making anything a concept design just so they could keep making up Beewunified designs because they still don't want to do Twins.

But they should do Twins. At least the ice cream truck.

The supply of Bayformers is limited so they take their sweet time to release them over the years. That's why they are even adding concepts bots that never appeared in the movies.
Also, I have a suspicion the fact that the ROTF and DOTM Twins were shelfwarming hard. Furthermore the "racism controversy" give
cold feet to remake them in SS.

We actually have a pretty big list of remaining Bayverse figures, enough to keep the line going for probably a couple years entirely by itself.
Just a couple notes on the list we made for BacktoBaysics, while we did get exclusive rereleases of the original figures for High Octane Bee, TLK Bee, and TLk Drift, Sam Smith noted that these releases were not considered definitive Studio Series releases which is further evidenced by the recently vanished listing for a new SS TLK Drift.
It’s also missing a few guys like Lieutenant that I’ll have to add on the next version

Seibertron is in zombie mode so it literally took me around an hour to be able to make this post.
anyway, Concept BM Megs is an imperfect triple-changer, but he's a PERFECT impro-changer. Meaning you can fan-mode this to your heart's content!
And of course, a gun mode was already discovered. A pretty good one too.
Can't wait to get mine! Maybe I'll even squeeze a beast mode out of it.

Sunstreaker serves as a serious reminder not to lameave candles on top of your car bots.
Also how bad a blade runner/rigger rabbit toon taxi cross over would look like.

The studio series line is releasing some wild stuff in 2024, a very different direction than it's live action toy origins. Case in point, we have new images for the upcoming Sunstreaker toy and a never before seen new version of Fall of Cybertron Sideswipe from Studio Series. The images come from an E-Bay listing where anyone can buy it for $200 and make their early review.
While there, you can also purchase the Studio Series deluxe concept Sunstreaker. The listing gives us better images of both modes and shows the weapons he comes with.

That Sideswipe looks beautiful. Really eager to pick him up whenever he releases. The Sunstreaker does look pretty interesting, though I still think the car mode just isn't really selling it for me. I think I'll pass on that, but hey, he still looks like a really cool figure otherwise!
