Takara has a bunch of new figures available for preorder today, and many include figures that are released by Hasbro. The upcoming Noah in Exosuit, released as a core class figure in Studio Series, shows us new functionality. We can see that the humanoid figure seperates from the plane, giving us a more accurate figure.

You can see it below along with new shots of MPM Bonecrusher, the Lunar Optimus, the Beast Wars Again sets and more.

Um…, why does Bonecrusher have a burning crotch? :shock:

I am so happy Noah is getting a figure, and it's even cooler that he and Mirage are in the same wave.

That one fling with Black Arachnia. Was burning when he leaked luibricant. He's getting treatment for it now.

I have to wonder when the design changed to have Arcee go from a pink face to a white one? All of the merch gives her a pink face like in the Bumblebee movie, but in ROTB it's white with pink "cheeks" and not a single figure reflects that. Even the stock figure packaging uses a pink face. I'm going to guess that's one of those things they refined during that year long delay, back when most of the toys were meant to be released. This standee I found looks more like the toys, all the way down to the headlight chest and seems to be what most of the toys are based on.

The final design used in the movie ended up like this:

So do you think we'll ever see a movie accurate Arcee toy? Would they even attempt it with an MP?

Having looked into it, I may buy some of those Takara Beast Wars two-packs. Cheetor and Waspinator look so much better than the standard Kingdom versions, and the yellowing on my Tigatron is really bad now, so I'll most likely get that set to see if the plastic on Takara's Tigatron is any better. I'm also itching to get my hands on Ultra Magnus, Ratchet and Frenzy, but sadly pre-orders haven't gone up on any UK sites yet.

Every time I see that transparent plastic, re-used from Voyager Ironhide to Ratchet, it fills me with anger and woe. They had a chance to fix that and use consistent plastic across the entire figure, and they FAILED. Looks like the paint discoloration will be as glaring and obvious on Ratchet....

And did they re-tool the Legacy Bomb-Burst mold for that Noah exo suit?

Recently found the files to 3D print a Frenzy to scale with Studio Series, and took the opportunity to refresh my paint work on Barricade!

Really surprised we haven't seen a Frenzy pack-in figure yet in SS, he's one of the more prominent Decepticons in the 2007 movie.

True!
Frenzy was even a pack-in gimmick with the original 2007 deluxe. The fact that a little Frenzy was never included with the SS release is baffling and disappointing.

Great work! I'm similarly surprised and disappointed by the lack of Frenzy... I remember thinking he would be packed in with 2007 Megatron in Studio Series, back before we got that figure.

Thanks to a new review, we have our best look yet at the upcoming Studio Series leader Optimus Primal. The review shows that the transformation is very involved for every limb, something which has not been the case with any Rise of the Beasts Optimus Primal toy. This gives us a good look at the scale of the figure compared to Optimus Prime. You'll let us know if it works well enough for you. With the Studio Series line, the focus was always on robot mode scale rather than alt mode scale but with the beast wars characters being more prominent in their beast forms in the film, that may yield conflicting results for some.

Wow. Way smaller than I thought definitely not leader class size same as the Prime voyager. I may cancel my preorder til I see in person.

People didn't seem to mind paying voyager price for voyager primal, and this primal looks like a leader compared to that one.

It's interesting how the lower body's transformation scheme for the mainline is much better (better legs & gorilla back "curvature" that fans are nuts about) than SS. I wonder if these toy designers ever compare notes. Imagine if the mainline & SS (or include the Japanese too, since they should all be TakaraTomy?) designers saw each other's transformation sketches and thought..."hmm.... better switch between the Voyager & Leader. No one will mind the exposed feet at the calves for Voyager, and using the "hide-the-feet-inside the-legs transformation make the Leader PERFECT and thus justify a much higher price with a slightly bigger toy! Win-win I say!"

While many fans have had Studio Series 86 leader class Snarl for a while, he has only popped up at US retail recently. We have had a few reports of him found at Gamestop and he appears to be in solid cases (then again, that might just be a Gamestop thing). Speaking of Studio Series, we also have word that the latest deluxes have been found in the US, but this time at Walmart. The new deluxes are SS 86 Brawn and Cliffjumper from the video game series (based on the previously released Bumblebee). We also got word that these deluxes are appearing in Singapore at collectible stores such as the one found in the international airport.

We thank all the fans who submitted their sightings. Below are video reviews of these toys if you want to know as much as possible about them before buying them.
Some of these latest releases are also in stock at Seibertron's store.

Not for me though. The transformation is fiddly, there's that weak point to be aware of, and he feels too hollow and flimsy to be worth full leader price. So far, no SS figures have blown me away. That also include SS86 and SSG. Maybe Leader ROTB Optimus Primal will be it? That remains to be seen.

Why is that "RotB leader" even necessary. There is no other Scourge in SS this year.

And he feels good, I love posing him around and messing with him. He's a helluva lot better than SS86 Snarl I can tell you that, and he is much more fun than Armada Megs sadly. It's kinda him and Legacy Skyquake for best leader of the year.

Another set of leaks from Jtprime17 posted to the Seibertron Pub forums by Munkky seems to run the widest spectrum of figures yet for the line. Some of these we can only speculate on and others are likely errors (like MV6 Frenzy which is probably the 86 repaint). But there are a few references that we haven't previously seen like "Deluxe HM Megatron" (another High Moon Megatron?), "Next Gen Bumblebee", and two figures marked as "A Level AST" without price classes, one of which is "MV8 OP". Feel free to speculate away in the forums what these could possibly mean!

Wouldn't surprise me if next gen Bumblebee is from the Energon Universe comics.

Finally doing MV6 Skywarp, so much for a bunch of the jets being exclusives (thankfully not).

Looks like they're trying to do a G1 Bumblebee yet again for SS86.

Seriously, what the fuck is up with that? Only a core class this year? I got my hopes up when I read "Frenzy", but it's probably just a repack of the 86 guy.

List of missing on-screen bots:
-Frenzy
-Dispensor
-Autobot Protoform
-Decepticon Protoform
-Demolishor
-Scalpel
-Que/Wheeljack
-Hatchet, we've seen renders but he still hasn't shown up
-Devcon
-Sand themed Brawl
-Bumblebee (AOE old camaro)
-Bumblebee (2014 camaro, this absence is particularly puzzling because it'd just be Stinger with a new head, you'd think they would have made it ages ago)
-Drift (car)
-Hound
-Scorn
-Slug
-Strafe
-Junkheap
-Daytrader
-Lieutenant
-Bulldog
-Infernocus
-Onslaught
-Dragonstorm

And these are just the ones I could easily remember, plus I left out anyone who already had proper toys done in The Last Knight.

Weirdly most excited for Filch, I guess because it's so unexpected. Probably just a redeco of Airazor, but that's fine for me. Plenty of others that I'm excited for, but I was expecting most of those.

I'm excited for Filch, Lockdown and Thundertron - who I suspect will be a retool of Tigerhawk. Its the only leader-class even in the ballpark. I should note this is the wrong thread, though.

For SS86, it's nice to get Steeljaw for sure! Bumblebee...best guess is the existing Netflix one with painted windows (which would be welcome).
