Hasbro Official Images of 2026 Age of the Primes and Pre Orders are Live

Have pre-ordered Brawl and Blastoff at last! There's some wary apprehension though. On X, some of the people who had early access are noting some QC issues with Brawl already. Namely, that his ankle/foot components are already showing stress marks...

Hasbro has been over at MCM London Comic Con and giving fans an early first look at the upcoming Age of the Primes Commander Class Onslaught! YouTuber Toys Are Russ was spending time with the Hasbro Transformers team and given some alone time with the figure still in an early test stage to mess around with and check some of the finer details. Onslaught himself now makes up only the cab (which is a fully realized vehicle in itself) while the trailer forms the frame. Russ was able to get a lot of group shots to show off his size including one with Combiner Wars Onslaught.

Russ was able to come back later to have some questions answered with Evan Brooks. In the second video we're shown that the tailer and cab do have a pivot between them making the full vehicle capable of turning and pivoting. Evan also confirmed that we'll be getting one combiner per year from here on. Evan also said that Ruination was a likely future box set, but also acknowledged that the Combaticons have a lot of repaint potential like Battle Gaia and that it would be a few years. Evan also still insists a Breakdown reissue is coming in the future.

What are you talking about? He's the same height as Soundwave and taller than Thundercracker. It's Optimus who's gargantuan.

Yep, Brawl and Blast Off were what I pre-ordered from this batch. $75 effing dollars for a Deluxe and a Voyager. $15 markup from a a month ago.

Finally have the four limb-bots for Superion. Really dig them. Just gotta get Silverbolt now!

Flatline and Megatron arrived.

Megatron is superb. Engineering genius. Turret is a bit crap in tank mode and I ain't sold on the fusion cannon but neither detracts from that glorious robot mode at all. The transformation is sublime.

Flatline, I wanted because he's a Decepticon medic. We don't get those. Plus I want Red Alert (Just him for the original Armada trio with Prime & Hot Shot) and this figure has 100% sold me on him. Flatline looks amazing in the all black and red and the lightpiping for his eyes is savage! REALLY pleased with him. Great toy!

I am amused that for the Skybound Optimus, they got the Fusion Cannon perfect. But not for Megatron.

Yeah, the tank is fine. Main hull is very good. Turret, not so much.

Hate to break it to ya, but Megatron isn't an Age of the Primes toy.

I'm aware, but, until this recent change of removing the greebling, that was largely semantics.

Flatline, however, is. As are the four Aerialbots. All mentioned in my post that started this particular conversation.

So, regarding the PotP Titan Predaking reissue, is it worth getting, or it will be pointless because new molds à la SS86 Devastator will come out soon?

Could have posted in the news topic.

Personally, I think it was a poor choice to reissue. We know they'll be remaking him in the future plus there's the Adamas Machina version which is basically a Generation figure (large team leader and smaller limb bots) at a Masterpiece price point so there's other options. I think with Predaking and Nemesis a pencil pusher was looking at the current eBay prices rather than thinking ahead. And then to set both to release in the same time frame was really strange.
