New Transformers Studio Series Deluxes Revealed! Barricade, Sideswipe, WWII Bumblebee at Fan Expo Canada #FXC18

YES PLEASE.

(also WWII Bee into DOTM Flak when)

Really didnt want to get sucked into these too much..but..Sideswipe looks so good though..argh!

WWII BUMBLEBEE!!!! And it looks so good! I’m really glad they didn’t have him turn into the car from the movie, since it never matched his Robot mode kibble. And it comes with his gun and the hammer! This also paves the way for more TLK releases, so that’s awesome!

Sideswipe looks freaking gorgeous. The paint. . . The paint! And he comes with both his guns and his swords. . . Man, SS Sideswipe could have been a skip since I like the DOTM one, but I will be getting this one for sure!

Barricade looks pretty good, he does have a better chest and arms than the DOTM deluxe. Not a priority, but he does look cool.

Anyone know what vehicle that is Bee turns into? I don’t recognize it immediately.

EDIT: You can also see a weathered version of 76 Camaro Bee in the reflection of a couple of the pictures, maybe that’ll be released too sometime?

It's also super exciting to see a toy of a body Bee only had in a flashback. It's pretty awesome that they are willing to go to that depth for the toys

Agreed, though I'm also just hoping we get an actual decent deluxe Hotrod.

WHERE THE PAINT ON THE FIRST ONE

I require that Sideswipe and Barricade!

Damnit...too much awesomeness. THat Bee is sick! And Sideswipe! THey stepped up their game.

Personally, these make the most sense to me make next for the studio series, and the ones that I'm hoping for the most, but I'm probably forgetting someone though (a Bumblebee movie Blitzwing would be pretty awesome too, it could confirm whether he's a triple changer or not, has that been confirmed?)

Man, crazy how what was revealed was nothing anyone guessed or hoped for, but its still cool reveals regardless. I like movie toy engineering and these are almost all new molds (except for what I am about to post). Very refreshing from last time.

I thought the deluxe we got was more than decent. Fun transformation, and 2 great looking modes.

HOLY CRAP! THEY ALL LOOK AWESOME!!!

I never thought we'd actually get a WWII Bumblebee (I actually thought it was some kind of Hound when I first glanced at it) but damn they listened to those of us who wished for such a thing and it looks fantastic.

Sideswipe and Barricade. Man... They look superb. I love Sidearms Sideswipe but he's way too big for Studio scale and I was worried how a smaller one might turn out, well this one looks fantastic and fresh and new and well-armed so bought! Barricade, I thought I'd be content with his fine DotM deluxe but this one looks somehow better! Like his MPM scaled down with magic. On the DotM figure he doesn't have proper rear windows, they're just solid black and end up o nback of his thighs, here they're definitely transparent and end up inside his forearms. Bigger hands too.

Crankcase yeah I may get him too. I get they're doingt he Dread squad and I'm cool with that. I still haven't yet got Crowbar (and confused this looks just like him?) but I have and love TLK Berserker (should I move him up to my Studio shelf?) But yeah Bee, Swipe and Barry are definitely the priorities and super damn exciting!

I too would love another got at Hot Rod. His stylish robot mode just wasn't done very well on the AoE Lockdown retool. It's fine as a figure but Hot Rod looks way cooler than that figure.

Shhhh, don't put ideas into Hasbro's head about re-releasing all the TLK figures into the Studio line (though would be nice to have backdrops for all). They've just been super amazing with these new nolds here, let's not spoil it.
