Nate and Evan abstain from using the word "gun" in reference to SS86 Megatron, opting to use the word "blaster" instead.
The figure does have butterfly joint shoulder articulation.
The tank mold is based on a real-life tank prototype from the '80s that never got produced. It was called something like the "Armored Blaster System", which Evan felt was perfect for Megatron considering he used to be turn into a "blaster".
SS86 Grimlock is a straight rerelease of the same Leader class figure from 2021, giving people who missed out on him the first time a second chance to get him. He comes with the same accessories as before. Nothing else new about him.
Voyager WFC Thundercracker has yellowish eyes because in the WFC video game, all three Seekers actually have slightly different colored eyes from each other, compared to the promo art where all three just have red eyes, so they wanted to be faithful to the in-game eye colors.
SS86 Mixmaster is a Voyager instead of a Deluxe because he is one of Devastator's feet, so they had to build in ratchets into his robot mode waist so that he could have an ankle tilt for stability in order to support the weight of the combiner when he becomes Devastator's foot.
There are no plans for a Devastator giftset for either 2026 or 2027 right now. They encourage us to buy the Constructicons this year rather than later. They are already knee-deep in 2027 planning and are intentionally not planning a box set so that they can move on to other Combiners they have to get to.
SS TF One Elita One comes with the mining jetpack seen in the movie, which is also compatible with the other SS TF One Optimus, Megatron, and Bumblebee figures.
SS TF One Starscream is the first of more TF One Seekers to come. The will not just be doing pure redecos, they will make sure that the sculpts match what we see in the film.
KSI Widow is based on the McLaren MP4-12C that appears among the many KSI drones in Age of Extinction, but whose robot mode was never actually shown onscreen. They had concept art for something called "Widowmaker", whose altmode ended becoming Stinger's altmode in the film. But they really liked the Widowmaker concept art and wanted to bring it into the toyline, so they simply color-graded her red to orange to make her match the McLaren. And now she's KSI Widow.
They wanted to give more female Decepticon representation to the Bay movies (besides Alice). Though, Evan admits that she's more KSI than Decepticon since it was kind of a gray area in that movie.
First look at 2026 Studio Series product:
TF One Airachnid is a Deluxe, but very "significant", like a "Deluxe Plus". She has ball-joint articulated spider legs, and butterfly-jointed arms because of how she transforms. Lots of articulation.
TF One Alpha Trion is a Voyager. He does have the sculpted battle damage, the rust and grime that he has when they find him in the movie. That was one of the flourishes that they wanted to bring into this line, to separate it from the "kid line" version that was a clean Alpha Trion. They did use the movie CAD for this figure.
Evan jokes that a new Rail Racer would have each of his three components be a Titan since they are "monstrous".
Evan and Nate explain that Skids and Mudflap are more of an eventuality, but right now not so much. The two are brought up every once in a while to see how everyone is feeling, and it's just like "No, not yet." They'll never say never on this, they think they'll get there eventually, just not right now. This is different from the discussion on Megatron's "blaster vs. tank" mode since that is a legal thing. There's no gray area there, they just can't do it. But with Skids and Mudflap it's more of an "emotional" thing. They know there are strong opinions about them, like "Just finish the collection!" and "No, not now!" But for now, there are no plans. That is not a "never", they are fully aware that those are two gaping holes in the collection, it's hopefully a potentiality but they'll see. Every year they try to gauge the interest across the design team, so it's an eventuality. It will happen, eventually. They hope.
Evan is very coy about the possibility of Monstructor.: "I think fans realize that the pieces are out there. We've used those molds a couple of times, but maybe he's coming and maybe I promise you he won't be dinosaurs." Stay tuned on Monstructor "potentially coming".
Fan poll question: "Do you want to see toys of characters from Season 1 and 2 of the G1 cartoon, that did not appear in the 86 movie, in the Studio Series 86 segment?" They've had this conversation many times, as there are also different versions of the script and storyboards that show different characters in scenes that got cut. And it always turned out be "What is okay to show in Studio Series and label it 'Studio Series'?" So, what do the fans prefer? It's a simple "Yes" or "No".
People have quoted Evan being "slightly wrong" about "We'll be done with 86 in 2026." There will be more, there's always more. Evan can mine deeper, can go deeper. There is no bottom. "This one animation cel, this one interview from back in 1986 where someone said, 'I recorded lines but I got cut,' this one animation error, etc."

Thanks to Dis Collectables, we have a look at the upcoming Beast Wars Funko Pops. They include Optimus Primal, Megatron, Blackarachnia and Rhinox. These should be available soon with some even reporting as early as June 25th. Sadly, for now, it seems Cheetor is still exclusive to their NFT program, meaning he is very limited and is only available on the secondary market.

We had reported months ago that there were no plans for a Transformers One sequel over at Paramount, as said on a podcast by the film's art director. While we were asked to tone down the rhetoric, it has now been publicly confirmed by the film's director that there is no plan for a sequel to the film. Josh Cooley, who directed the film, was in a Q&A this weekend at Botcon and spoke on the subject.@disclaimeryikes, among others on Twitter, are reporting that he said Paramount has no interest in a Transformers One Sequel.
So there you have it; it was all but confirmed in yesterday's news of Cooley moving on and Paramount focusing on other animated films instead, but now we have an official confirmation. While a sequel would have been great, the film was initially made as a stand alone film, acting as an all purpose prequel to the franchise in general, and will live on as such.

The Annecy film festival is happening right now in France. This is the biggest yearly event for animated films and it's where audiences first saw the Transformers One film. Well, as it turns out we have some news about one of the film's allums. While there was no indication given by Paramount that there would be a sequel to Transformers One, they announced a new film called "I Eat Poop" instead which will be Josh Cooley's next directing project. That means that any plan he may have had for a sequel to Transformers One would not involve him directing it. At least not in the near future, since he will now be busy with a new project.
The I Eat Poop film will be produced by Ryan Reynolds. The story was first reported by Deadline.

Hasbro Pulse had the first Transformers' Tuesday Live Steam in quite a while today. Nate and Mark hosted the stream today and wrapped up the 2025 product reveals for Age of The Primes Wave 3 before showing off a few exclusive sets.
For the final wave of Age of The Primes for 2025 Skydive and Fireflight rounded out the Aerialbots and Superion was shown in his fully combined mode. Venim (Venom) will add to a the Deluxe Insecticons. Micronus Prime finishes up the Deluxe assortment providing a RID 2015 Minicon look and a weaponizer exo-suit.
Voyager offerings provide Alpha Trion rocking a mustache and a remold of the Armada Red Alert as the Decepticon Medic Flatline.
The final Leader offering for AOTP in 2025 will be the Onyx Prime that was revealed at New York Toy Fair this year.
In addition to Age of the Primes, the Hasbro Team provided a look at the next Amazon Wreck 'N Doom two pack reissueing Titans Return Slugslinger (this time in a darker blue deco) and the Legacy Sandstorm in cartoon accurate colors and without the facemask.
The next Fan Channel Exclusive is a two pack of the G2 Dinobots consisting of Red Snarl and a Green Slug.
The final reveal was the Studio Series Revenge of the Fallen three pack of The Fallen, Megatron, and Soundwave.

Who’s up for more new reveals? Because Target has them in spades. Not only is there a new 4 pack, but there’s also Devastation Sideswipe and Wheeljack (which make for great additions to an SS86 collection if you don’t have them yet) and War for Cybertron game Optimus Prime and Megatron.
And the best news is that MSRP has not increased.
Below are links and images.

Sabrblade wrote:In Demand Toys got some publicity stock photos for this line and one of them shows us our first look at Wheeljack's toy and... he's kinda bizarre, even for this line. He looks more Jazz simply colored like Wheeljack, complete with his helmet colored like Jazz's (with black painted around the ears so it looks like a Jazz/Wheeljack fusion helmet) and a front-bumper chest.
He doesn't even have a wacky new altmode that leans into the "fun" of the line like Megatron, Snarl, and others do. He's just "Wheeljack, but he's shaped like Jazz for some reason".

Hasbro has been slow to reveal some new Transformers toys, probably due to domestic market uncertainties linked to preorders, which is the current rumour. It’s status quo for Takara, on the other hand, so they are revealing the following Studio Series figures and have them up for preorder in Japan:
TFOne Elita 1
TFOne Starscream
SS86 Megatron
SS86 Mixmaster
SS86 Scavenger
There is also a Takara exclusive Thundercracker and Reflector set
You can check out all the images below
-No AOTP Titan in 2026. That's because Studio Series is getting its first Titan instead. AOTP will have 2 Commanders instead.
-Comics is being introduced to Studio Series in 2027.
-Leader Hound, Swoop, Slp Prime, Fort Max and Soundwave are super early 2027 listings.

We have two Transformers: Wild King episodes for you. The new 6th episode and the 5th episode with fansubs.
Episode 6
"New Allies, New Threats"
Notes on Thunderbreak: Hmm, Thunderbeak is obviously voiced by a woman and sounds like a woman, but uses the first-person pronoun of "boku" (僕) at one point, which is a male pronoun. I get the feeling that if Thunderbeak was meant to be female, the toy advert at the end of the video would point that out, but it doesn't. I guess this means we're meant to perceive Thunderbeak as merely a young and/or somewhat effeminate boy character.

We finally have a good look at both Studio Series deluxe Widowmaker and SS86 Leader Megatron.
Our look at leader class Megatron comes from a video from Icon of Iacon. They also posted a video of Widowmaker, who of course has a lot more vehicle kibble on her than her concept art.
Edit: the videos have since gone private but we have some images below to show you the figures
