New Prototype Images of Furyu Transformers Lost Age Bumblebee

At any rate he's got quite the thunderous thighs

Thanks! =]

Yeah, he looks really awkward with two hands, but with the gun and battle mask the figure looks far better. I changed my mind about canceling my order, I think with paint he'll be a pretty solid figure. Plus I'm getting him for less than the cost of a Hasbro Deluxe so really don't have anything to loose.

We've received multiple sightings about a new Transformers: Age of Extinction exclusive set, this time from Target stores - the One-Step Collection, including Optimus Prime, Lockdown, Drift, the Dinobots Slug and Grimlock, and of course, Bumblebee. Seibertron.com users DISCHARGE, ScottyP and Bounti76 have all sent us sightings, from stores ranging from Utah to North Carolina, always priced at $49.99. Check out photo proof below, including the new Age of Extinction endcap.

Feel free to report any sightings using the information detailed here!

Slug will be available separately later. The only exclusive is that Silver Knight Optimus one.

Fellow fan and collector, Blacklai, has posted a pictorial review of the soon to be released Autobots Unite figure boxset! The set consists of film accurate redecos of Deluxe Class figures Bumblebee, Crosshairs, Drift, plus Voyager Class figures Hound and (Evasion Mode) Optimus Prime. (The latter features a remolded head as well as a new G1-esque deco.)

Price and release date information has not been released as of yet, but as soon as we know, you will. Until then, let these pics whet your whistle.

We've mirrored a few below, but to see the full gallery and review (in Chinese, so a translator is required), please click: Here @ TFND

These look really nice with all the little details painted in (taillights anyone?). But it really gets to me that alot of my main problems with their decos aren't fixed. Drift is still blue, not even dark blue or navy blue, just blue. And John Goodbot still has a black beard which makes him look like a pirate. I think it was silver in the movie. At any rate, considering what these will surely cost, I really wish they would have done some more obvious stuff.

Hooray, the OP repaint/remold everyone wanted in a likely cost-prohibitive set that no one will buy!

That said, these decos look really great compared to the originals. If I was collecting AoE and was lucky enough to have NOT already picked these characters up, this would be a must-buy.

Not really my problem because as usual, TrU hate Québec.

As I was seeing these pictures, I was "ooh-ing" and "aah-ing" at the incredible insight they had to bother painting the damn rear-lights! Appart that, not much differences to justify paying a premium.
Well, appart that Hound who is now totally Movie Bulkhead!

But semi-completeist that I am, I'm still interested in getting at least one representation of each deluxe/voyager/leader(possibly) mold. The Autobots Unite and Dinobots Unleashed 5-packs seem like a great start, but what else should I wait for before I start hunting individual figures? Are there any planned repaints of Snarl/Slash? Do Lockdown and Galvatron only exist on their own? Are the Leader versions of Optimus/Grimlock worth the price/space?

It seems the Autobots are getting preferential treatment with all the releases. The Breakout Battle is another to look out for, as it has the "rusty" Prime as seen in the movie. So far, Lockdown and Galvatron are on their own without any repaints, and with none announced that'll remain the case. The Leader versions are worth looking into at the very least, but avoid the First Edition! Keep in mind that Optimus Prime will get show-accurate retooling done by TakaraTomy, and that both are available in a 2-pack, with Grimlock in black.
