Hey that’s my cropped photo, and no it’s not from Amazon.

Here you go.

Hell yeah!! My Boyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy

Could be a slight re-jig for the class given it is part of s soft reset for the line.

The Cyberverse Transformers line is having a soft reset with a name change so that retailers can know what product is new and should go on the shelves. A lot of this line is made up of figures we have already seen though. Unlike what some fans think, none of these toys are figures from old packages remove and placed in new packaging since Hasbro does not take back toys from retailers (retailers instead sell their unsold stock to market six stores). These are all newly made figures to ensure that the popular characters are on the shelves when the Cyberverse Netflix movies come out later this year. You will see repacks in all lines such as the scout, deluxe and one step line. Of the new characters, we have ultra class Sludge and warrior class Dead End. Dead End is rather interesting since he is the first warrior class figure to have a weapon that is detached from himself. The repackaged deluxes show the new packaging initiatives done by Hasbro to reduce plastic and they give us some pretty kick ass art. Oddly enough, they still come with the Macadam BAF piece. There are also the Dinobot combining figures and you can see the three that we know of so far including the newly found Grimlock/Wheeljack combiner.

These figures were all found on the Brandora website.

You know what, while that toy has it's flaws, it is very very fun to mess with and transform. Really, the only flaw is that backpack in robot mode that ruins his silouette.

Bumbleswoop and Slugtron are great names, but Wheelgrim? I woulda named him Grimjack...or Wheelock. Yeah, Wheelock...and he comes with a boot accessory to lock up other car transformers!

I got Deluxe Prowl and I was very impressed. So much so that I had to compared it to the normal Earthrise version. No, I didn't order that Amazon 2 pack so we will have to settle with ER Barricade.

Cyberverse Prowl is superbly painted. Plus the overall shape of the car is better, more "real cop car."





In robot mode, Cyberverse get points for having the shoulder canons integrated to the bot. Plus he's very satisfying to transform.



From the side, both look thin and manage their backpack well.



From the back, it's a big "oof" for the ER because of the hollow legs. You'd expect this on a Cyberverse, not a Generations. Plus, Prowl's legs are covered with extra panels! But the Cyber have a questionable fault. Why the hollow forearms? Cyber also have the hollow inner thighs.



Overall, I think Deluxe Prowl is the superior toy. More fun to transform, look better at all times, and feel SOLID in hand. Also, spark effects!

Good grief, As a kid, I would have switched to another line, if this was what they were offering.

As I've said before, I've never touched the Cyberverse toyline, and while I was mildly interested in the Deluxes and Maccadam, I eventually never got any of them. That being said, I do still like a lot of these figures, I'm mostly talking about the Deluxes and Sludge, so I may get a couple if I see them at retail or if any come up on tge Smyths website. I'm guessing I've missed the boat on building Maccadam though?

Those things shelfwarm where you are? I can't recall the last time I've actually seen Cyberverse figures in a store. Last time I went to Target, all that was left was one SS RotF Soundwave, one Tiny Turbo Changer, and so many of that damn Bumblebee/Spike thing that not only was its peg full, but it had taken over another peg and filled THAT up too.

Honestly, all I wanted from Dead End was for him to have that really cool gun that he had on the show, and it looks like he does. That he seems to be decently poseable for a Cyberverse figure is just icing on the cake. I might be interested in picking him up if I can find him.
