We're on the same page...
I'm just now seeing these newer photos of Galvatron, and I cannot wait to have him.
A few of those poses just look so on point.
And I'm actually excited to see the Selects toy version colors on this guy!

I appreciate the early looks at Galvatron. Even so, it cheeses me off that people who 'pre-ordered' on Hasbro Pulse still have to wait until September, when these reviews clearly show the figure is 'done' and some people have it NOW.
There is no justice - believe me, I know!

They have them because they bought them from people who stole them from the factory.

If I see it in the store, I will cancel it on Pulse, so it's all good.

Same, except with Amazon... Target is listing July 1st as release dates. Amazon’s is Sept 1st...
I’ve had good luck with Amazon, so we’ll see what happens.
Pretty sure I’ll see them in store first... We’ll, maybe not the Ark.

The position of the support for Galvatron's cannon mode really throws off the look IMO. Then again, so did the look of the cockpit on the Titans Return one (among other things). So close on either of them...
Is it bad that I'm actually anticipating a toy swap involving Cyclonus and Inferno?

Update!
Thanks to the intrepid efforts of fellow Seibertron user, Alekese, the images have been proved to be the work of a customiser who created these on commission. There us still traces of the original paint that can be found on these figures.
Original article follows:
Greetings Seibertronians! Fellow Seibertron user, Mindmaster, has let us know that a few new photos have surfaced on twitter, reportedly showing two new Transformers Kingdoms (and/or Transformers Selects) products!
The images come from Twitter user, Sousi, who had this to say:
The images show off two grey prototype looking versions of the Transformers Kingdom Cheetor and Optimus Primal figures, with completely new, unseen before heads. Speculation is rife that the Cheetor toy seen here is the leaked Shadow Panther toy, while the is no news of a battle masked Optimus Primal figure, but it wouldn't be unheard of for such a variant to debut as either an exclusive or under the Transformers Selects line.
Of course we also have no idea yet if these are even real as they could be well made customs, so, as always with news like this, take it with a large pinch of salt until more evidence becomes available.
Though as you can see from the image below, they do look like the prototype we have seen in the past like this article from 2016:
What do you think of these images? Fact or faked? Would you have likes to have seen the Netflix Optimus Primal release sport his battle mode head?

If this is true, I wonder if Primal would be released in the same paint job or with universe colors or something. I will say I've always been conflicted about the battlemask, since the original toy had the battle mask and I always thought it looked cooler (and closer to original prime). But on the other end, without the battle mask is more show-accurate and Primal is meant to be his own guy, not just monkey prime.
I'd say if this is real, I already have kingdom Primal so I wouldn't double dip for this one unless it was in universe colors or ghost convoy or something.
As for the cheetor mold, I hope speculation is correct that the battle mask is for shadow panther. I'd be more inclined to get him if so

Unfortunately, it's already been debunked. Some of the comments in the original twitter thread have been translated revealing that this was a commissioned customization. You can even see traces of yellow on cheetor's arm from where the spraypaint couldn't quite reach.

That makes sense unfortunately. I'd love if Shadow Panther had a battle mask, but it'd be kinda weird if the battle mask looked like that. The Primal one kind of makes sense, and was really done well so I almist believed it. Oh well though, least it's not like the Armada Prime mock up or finding out Polar Claw made it to the prototyping phase before he was killed off

That's too bad, I would have been somewhat interested in a Primal with the mask. He DOES occasionally use one in the show.

Whoever posted this article needs to learn what a primed custom looks like. You can clearly see spots of yellow on Cheetor and the fur on Primal is barely even covered by the paint

The visible colored plastic under the primer doesn't really mean anything. When Takara Tomy does a retool of a figure they stick new parts on an off the shelf figure and spray the whole thing in primer to even it out. I can't find the specific examples I'm looking for, one was the back of UW Bruticus at some event, I think Grand Galvatron and Megatronia were the same way, but my Google-fu is pretty weak right now.

Someone on tfw translated parts of the comment chain where it was specifically stated to be a customisation for a commission. The visible yellow is secondary supporting evidence, not the primary proof.

Dinobot came in today
-The robot mode looks so much cooler in person, he seems way less scrawny-looking
-Dino mode would've done with better contrast and honestly the part that bothers me the most isn't even the saladfingers or the robot mode leg, it's the tail. Not the purple tip, but it looks much longer in person (twss) and it's pretty awkward. Of course it's a necessary sacrifice for the weapons so ill get over it
-most of the joints don't feel overly tight, but some of them worry me (like the thigh swivel)
All that aside im so happy to have a dinobot that actually looks like Dinobot!

I updated my Guardians of the Galaxy cast with Dinobot as Groot
Then gave Alicon a try as Drax but Lugnut is still my favorite
Tried Arcee and Blackarachnia as Gamora and on that im conflicted
If Packrat and BW Grimlock end up getting released they'll replace my Rocket and Groot

So did anyone notice that Walmart didn't even bother putting up Kingdom wave 3 for pre-order?
I'm thinking 1 of 2 things must have happened. 1) they realized they are completely incompetent with pre-orders and decided not to; or 2) they are simply incompetent and forgot to.

Also I just got Ractonite, is her frill supposed to be glued in? Mine disconnected pretty easily and revealed a tab. Obviously this is how they retooled her into a Triceratops for Tricranius, but I don't think I've seen anyone mention this.

I figured it was meant to come off 
. I just kept it the way it was, it seems to plug in ok on him. As for gender, Smashdown I guess was confirmed as female in a trading card game, none of the fossilizers have though, so I use the masculine default until there is an official source stating otherwise.

I tend to use feminine pronouns for any new character to help round out my collection, I did it with AoE Slash and Scorn (fingers crossed for CHUG Scorn!!) and the Fossilizers. Wingfinger also has a female alt-mode (then again, so does Inferno, Waspinator, Tigatron, etc)
I like to think of the Fossilizers as the creations of Vertebreak. She's just making a collection of evil sisters.

Bald
Could be a vestigial thing from early on when the crest was supposed to split and go on the shoulders and the rest of the skull made a "hand".

I love this idea so much, that's a great way to theme a display.
As for gender in tfs, I say, each to their own, even if it goes against what HasTak say officially (unless it's completely obvious like Arcee/Strongarm/Windblade etc)
If someone wants wingfinger as a girl because of the alt mode, have at it.

Then gave Alicon a try as Drax but Lugnut is still my favorite
Tried Arcee and Blackarachnia as Gamora and on that im conflicted
If Packrat and BW Grimlock end up getting released they'll replace my Rocket and Groot

Apparently it was a member of the TCG staff accidentally referring to Smashdown as female which is what started the confusion. It was the Earth Wars bio (posted by Sabr above) and later Hasbro's own staff that set his gender.
Vertebreak sets the precedence for female Fossilizers, no reason why any of the combining ones can't be. I suspect Paradon Medic Dracodon will be female as well.

So once again we have to fix Hasbro's quality control for them.

Uh, context? I see a 6 so I'm guessing the other five explain what was fixed?

Sorry, I had to go and edit that post. It's much more non-nonsensical now!

The inner shoulder joints are flipped 180. I don't know how that affects articulation when it comes to the joint "stopping" however.

What do you think is the chance that Hasbro will fix the arm issue before this figure sees mass release? I think this was something that should've been asked and pressed on during the conference call the other day.

Maybe the actual issue wasn't known at that time? I certainly hope they fix it, because I don't really want to go through all that.

I may have missed this, but what impact does this error have on the figure? Is the arm articulation reversed?

Basically as intended the shoulders are slightly higher, but as constructed they're slightly lower and look like they're drooping down.
