New Bot Shots Revealed: Thundercracker, Jetfire, Lockdown, and Topspin

Posted by El Duque Jan 30, 2012 at 12:36pm CST 40,807 views
The Transformers Galaxy Hong Kong Fans Group have posted a couple of new images that reveal previously unknown Bot Shot characters. We actually saw some of the wave 2 figures a few days ago when we received the leaked images for the UK Toy Fair, but this confirms their identities. The blue sports car is Mirage along with movie Brawl and Autobot Ratchet. The unidentified wave adds Jetfire, Thundercracker, Movie Topspin, and Lockdown. Images mirrored below.

G1 Jetfire? Sold!

I hope this does well. They're apparently very inexpensive ($5 a pop last time I heard). Keeping my fingers crossed for Hot Rod, Starscream, Soundwave, and Jazz.

Glad that they didn't try mixing in any Movie Jetfire with G1 Skyfire like on some of the other Bot Shots, that would have been weird. :-?

What I wanna know is, what's the purpose of the almost completely yellow Bumblebee "repaint"? there's a perfectly good one right next to it, and it doesn't look totally bland and deco-less!

I believe he's translucent.

Cool for the kiddie set, but not for me.

If these look fun, and are a decent size, I'll get some for my kids.

The collecting addict in me wants these really bad... I like the idea of it being an RPS game. And they're cute too! If they offer them in multi-packs or soething I may grab a few.

I'm confused about what continuity these little bots fall into. They seem to draw inspiration from both G1 and Movie-verse incarnations of their respected characters.

Also, they seem really interesting. I may pick up a few depending on pricing. Starscream, Jetfire, and Barricade all look good. Heck, even Bee looks good, but I think my collection is already over saturated with Bumblebees.

No Continuity, just an excuse to make simple toys for kids.

Why does Optimus look like Armada Prime?

They seem to be all over the place with their choices, so it's very possible. I mean, they made G1 Jetfire! Yay! Anything is possible!

Bought myself an Optimus last night. Wanted a Starscream, but they only had Bumblebee and Sentinel, so I stuck with one. Very basic, but they're cute. I might have to snag a Jetfire, too.
