I've been familiar with the Terrorcons since G1 - and... those ain't no Terrorcons 
. If they were just going to have a gang of ground based evil transformers, why not give them an original faction name? By misappropriating the Terrorcon faction name and applying it to these characters, it's just irking the long time purists.
I haven't watched the movie - because, ya know - Bayverse. But I hope they at least didn't do with the "Terrorcons" what they did with the Decepticons in the TLK movie. Just gather a random gang in a heist-style montage. Then have them attack once in only one scene, get totally clobbered, then run away and never be seen again.

This isn't the first time the Terrorcon name has been used in non-G1 as seen in Energon and Prime

And the current theory is that they're using the name "Terrorcon" instead of "Predacon" for the main bad guys of this movie so that the name can align with the use of "Terrorize" like how "Maximize" does for "Maximal".ZeroWolf wrote:DeathReviews wrote:I've been familiar with the Terrorcons since G1 - and... those ain't no Terrorcons

And the best thing about Transformers is adapting and changing things. So, I'm agreeable to the changes, since that's like... the whole thing.

This ain't G1, so they will repurpose G1 names here like they always have done. Same old same old

Damn, I love how Scourge is looking. He looks great!
And no Terrorcon of any different type hasn't earned that name.
also the movie isn't out yet.

Y'know, the more I see of this guy, the more I believe they repurposed the Studio Series' Voyager Class Sentinel Prime mold. Is it just me, or does anyone else see it too? I mean, it definitely wouldn't be the first time Has/Tak had done it, so yeah. I'm not upset about it if this is the case; I'm just curious.

Man. They are making it easy for me to pass on these. These all look terrible. I hope the movie is good.

With PVP getting stuff early, there's always talk about the provenance of the items. Well, we know there is an online marketplace in asia where several members of our community get these items early, we posted direct links to listings, like the ones from Shopee. So that bit, we know. But there was a question as to where the items on shopee came from. Well, I now read of another wrinkle to the story from Bustermaster on the TFW boards:
So this is another or parallel source of leaked toys. Toys, before being packaged, get sent to places in asia for review (I'd guess Korea specifically here). Now I don't know what happens to the toys after, but it's another case of these toys being out of factories and into hands that are not Hasbro's before they are ready for distribution. We don't know what other scenarios or reasons there would be, we didn't know this one.
Chinese SNS boards are mumbling about how they're getting sent out to the KC Toy Safety "Korean Certification standards" where figures are reviewed for making sure they pass QC to be sold in the region.
We've seen this before time and time again, specially with early WFC and SS 86 they typically have a card of numbers under the figures in the pictures.

Rise of the Dull, Dingy Transformers.
So far these figures look cheap and uninspired.

Well alright then another jem surfaces through all this movie garbage! I like seeing Mad Max-ish figures and hopefully this guy doesn't disappoint!

We have for you below more images of the upcoming Transformers Studio Series deluxe Rise of the Beasts Airazor. The official images we saw earlier this week were slightly mistransformed so the images below can give you a better idea of how the beast mode could look better.
The images and video are from PrimevsPrime.
While preorders are live at all online retailers, like Amazon, many fans were able to get their copy early through asian online marketplaces like this one: https://shopee.ph/Hasbro-Transformers-L ... V06AwhRwFM
If you want a full list of the other Rise of the Beasts toys released in the Studio Series line, click this link: https://www.seibertron.com/transformers ... 023/47361/
If you want more details behind why we are getting two ROTB Airazors simultaneously, you can click here: https://www.seibertron.com/transformers ... ors/47359/

He looks like he's having a lot of fun with them 
Both Air Razor toys are looking pretty good to me, do we have a price difference between them yet?

If this Airazor is really sold as a deluxe, it would be amazing because it would be like if the old deluxe size is finally back. It will be sold at current year price, but I'll take the little win that I can get.

Looking forward to a Terrorcon recolor, but would also be interested if the released her on her 90s transmetal colors. Same with Cheetor.
Although, considering we're getting Airazor, Cheetor, and Rhinox, I'd love Armada repaints to put on my Unicron shelf (and AoE Strafe for Terrorsaur?), but that seems very far-fetched.
