Of all countries, New Zealand is the one where Transformers Studio Series Leaders Blackout and Grimlock were found first. They are even available online, in an assorment, at New Zealand site The Warehouse for $89 NZD earch (which is roughly $65 USD). It was only a matter of time before we got in hand images. And we have A LOT. Over 50 images of leader class Blackout were posted on the TFND Facebook page.

You can see Blackout in all his glory below, which also includes images of the accompanying Scorponok accessory and where you can store it in robot mode. You also have compairsons to the voyagers in this line where you ca clearly see that inly the robot modes are intended to be in scale with one another (since the alt modes are not). Let us know what you think of this toy and if you will be picking it up the moment you see it. This toy is slated for release on April 20th 2018 across North and South America.

He looks amazing! I am concerned about how well that cardboard stand will support his weight over time, though. Not that it's an integral part of the toy.

My nitpick is his hands. But otherwise a great leader class blackout!

Could use a few splashes of colour to break up the rather drab colour scheme but Reprolabels can sort that out.

Its been a while since I was interested in adding a new figure to my collection that wasn't a Masterpiece figure.

That looks quite good, though I kinda wish they had done more with scorpoknok on his back

He looks superb. The undercarriage (or rather lack thereof) is a bit of a shame but I can deal with it.

TF Factory and NDA-Toys have posted new stock images of the upcoming voyagers coming out in wave 2 of Transformers Studio Series. These are final product shots of Megatron and Brawl, so our best look yet at what we will get in hand. As you can tell, Megatron is indeed not painted in silver. We also get a very good look at the alt mode for Megatron and where the robot mode bots line up, which makes it look like a simpler transformation than what we have gotten in this line so far. And we see its visible head. These toys are scheduled for a summer release and will retail for $29.99 USD or more depending on the retailer.

For those unaware, these are fully new voyager class figures of movie Megatron in his Revenge of the Fallen body and Brawl from the 2007 film. They are both part of the Studio Series line, a toyline that will feature Transformers from all across the different live action films, from the 2007 movie and even the newest Bumblebee movie.

Sucks that the gray isn't silver. Better than making the gray look beige, but I won't complain as I have the convenience of painting him with a silver Sharpie.

I wonder what's Megatron's shoe size? :-?

Comment by DMSL Mar 22, 2018

Blackout looks fantastic. Seeing it together with Starscream and Prime in altmodes...who is Hasbro kidding, that's not proper scale LOL. I hope Blackout looks great next to MPM Prime in his botmode.

Comment by ZeroWolf Mar 22, 2018

I think they wanted more bot mode scale than alt mode.

Comment by Deathsaurus1 Mar 22, 2018

Blackout and starscream look closely scaled together in vehicle modes.
Optimus prime would need to be a deluxe

Damn the ugly grey plastic on an otherwise awesome figure. :SICK:

Comment by Spider5800 Mar 22, 2018

Megs looks awesome, but i'll wait til I see it in person before I decide to buy.

Does Blackout's spinning weapon peg into either arm? Only ever see people put it on his left arm when it was on his right in the movie and its driving me nuts. It looks like it unpegs, and there's peg holes on both arms, but none of the pictures have it on the other arm. :BANG_HEAD:

Blackout look nice. Especially that head sculpt. However, the feet panels just kill the figure for me. Maybe on sale...

As for Megatron, maybe the gray plastics have a shine that stock photos can't pick up. Let's wait for in hand pictures shall we?
