Mr Chaos has once again found upcoming product codes to share with the Transformers fan community. We already knew of three one step Transformers part of the upcoming Cyberverse lines, which were Bumblebee, Blurr and Soundwave, and now we have three new ones with Megatron, Starscream and Optimus Prime. What is interesting here is that while the ones we had already seen were all redecos of Robots in Disguise One Step toys, there were no Megatrons no Starscreams in that line. So those might be new molds for one step toys.

Another interesting part are the code names. We had seen some Seinfeld themed names pop up here and there, but these listings from Mr Chaos give us more than before. Each are based on a Seinfeld character. You will see the code names below along with the UPC codes and the actual Transformers names they correspond to:

Peterman (Optimus Prime) – 63050972804
Costanza (Bumblebee) – 63050972806
Kruger (Soundwave) – 63050972807
Morty (Blurr) – 63050972808
Newman (Megatron) – 63050972809
Bania (Starscream) – 63050974405

This now has me curious as to what a Wayne Knight-voiced Megatron would sound like.

I would be perfectly okay with that.
I want that to be a real thing now.

I'm nearly 42 and French Canadian. In my childhood right until my early adult years, ALL the names of ANY anime characters were changed into French ones for any anime dub in French. No, really.

Just about all anime shown on US TV also had character names changed for the English dubs through the '90s and parts of the 2000s. Of course some shows aimed at kids still do that because apparently TV execs still think kids don't understand what Japan is. Meanwhile they want kids to think donuts come on a stick...

Even before then too, during the 60s, 70s, and 80s (Astro Boy, Gigantor, Speed Racer, all of the edited Gatchaman dubs, Robotech, Voltron, etc.).

After seeing some of the truly weird anime to come out, I STILL don’tthink I know what Japan is...

Some of its not so much lack of understanding, as much as repackaging into something cooler. To use the “Toys That Made Us”, example, “Gun Robo”, not impressive. “Megatron”, NOW you’re talking. And sometimes, like in the case of the Pokemon “Wobuffet”, the Japanese name for it is based on a humorous phrase that we don’t use in the US so the joke is literally lost in the translation. And speaking of Pokemon, they pulled the “Donut” trick too, because what 10 year old kid wouldn’t have gone “Rice Ball? Ew yuck.”

But I will give you, that there are a number of questionably odd Dub choices for everyone that makes sense

Honestly, if I was a kid watching Pokemon and they were eating rice balls in the English dub, I'd probably want rice balls, I wouldn't care how it sounded. If they're eating them they have to be good! :lol:

Cyberverse Deluxes found in SMYTHS in Waterford. €20 each.

The Transormers Cyberverse line is as our doorstep with another international sighting. This one comes from the UK with the warrior class found in SMYTHS in Waterford by fellow Seibertronian leokearon. They were €20 each.

For those unaware, the entire line is based on gimmicks with simplified transformations. This is very different the previous cartoon line, Robots in Disguise, which at least had the legion and warrior class devoid of gimmicks or action feautures and had the same complexity as their counterpart classes in previous toylines.

While we have yet to get video reviews, we do have new stock images showing us the final product, for both the scout and warrior class. Please be aware that the scout class does not full transform, they go from robot mode to a mid transformation where an action feature is activated.

The images were sent our way thanks to Scotty P who found them on a toy website called Uncle Pete's Toys.

20 Euros? in the UK? Where exactly is that store located? I'm confused. :O
Never mind, I scrolled up and it said Waterford which is in the Republic of Ireland so not UK and explains the Euros.

And please let's just burn those poor half-transformer scout things and put them out of their misery. The Scout class used to mean decent fully transformable figures back in the last decade whether it was Energon, Cybertron or Revenge of the Fallen.

Ireland is not part of the UK

I thought 'half transformed' was the realm of fan mode transformations, or McDonalds style toys, not official mainline figures.
