Possible 2-Pack Art for Transformers: The Last Knight, Featuring Hot Rod

Posted by Va'al Apr 23, 2017 at 12:54pm CDT 58,194 views
Some further leaks for our regular friends on Weibo bring us some more artwork for the Transformers: The Last Knight packaging - and we get a new look at Hot Rod, plus Bumblebee, and an expanded version of the Megatron vs Optimus Prime we saw here.

Two characters per mock-up may very well indicate two packs, as teased in the Cybertron 2 Pack Deluxe listings seen back here, in combination with the Mission to Cybertron news from earlier today. In any case, take a look below, and join the conversation in the Energon Pub!

Ok, so that head on Optimus looks a wee bit toooooooo big in that first poster.

2nd, Will, your reviews are having the opposite effects that you are writing about. I wanted Barricade, and then I wanted Beserker and then decided to not get him, but then your review made me want him again. He looks cool, I love the details on him, and his head and chest are awesome

If your talking about the "dread" in the trailer that is not Berserker it's Hooligan since he has rusty van parts and Crowbar's head which is not the same.

So no its not the "predator" con when I get access to my computer later I can link the pictures of him which shows that Berserker is in none of the shots.


My apologies. I paused the trailer and studied who i was thinking of. Definately not beserker. Or crowbar. Or anyone else I recognise. It was the group Prime beheads at the end of the trailer who I was thinking of. It looked like he had th shoulder spikes too but pausing it, I can see its completely different.

Okay, with artwork like this, can there really be room for any more doubt that the big planet thing attacking Earth in the trailer is Cybertron?

Speculation here but perhaphs the honey comb stuff is a "cage" to keep Cybertron under check or something regardless if it's "alive" or something is controlling it.

Then again besides the first bit of DOTM and the Tf 2007 flashback scene we don't see much of Cybertron's surface and we never seen it's underground areas.

It's probably smaller because getting half the planet torn apart at the end of DOTM probably made the planet half size.

Have you been hunting for the new Transformers The Last Knight toys? Well, we.can make that search a bit easier today because the Voyagers, Deluxes, One steps, and more are now in stock at Hasbro Toy Shop's website! It seems that they are available to purchase, and not just placeholder listings, but that may change. Let us know if you'll be placing an order!

Of all times not to have money. Curse you dental bills. :-(

I should have the budget to get some bots later on though. Back when I was a kid I got rewards for going to the dentist, but now I just get bills. Don't become an adult it's a scam.

I'm still just hoping I can find what I want at Target tomorrow. Considering lately when Hasbro releases stuff (Star Wars and I've noticed Marvel especially) there's a release of several figure lines/waves on the same day - Marvel Legends X-Men and Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 were released at the same time a month or so ago. My that logic (and I'm completely prepared to be wrong) since Last Knight stuff is released tomorrow and Titans Return and Last Knight preorders finally hit BBTS estimated for tomorrow we might actually finally get TR wave 4 too. That's what I'm counting on, anyway.

I knew they were going with more expensive pricing with these new figures, but $20 for deluxes and $30 for Voyagers, with no apparent rise in quality or paint apps/deco is a no go for me. I get that materials don't cost the same forever and ever, but a jump that high is a jump TOO high. Not when TR figures were $15 at retail.

Where did you find TR deludes for $15?!?! Every where in California is 18-20 for deluxes and all they have is twinferno!

Seriously? That sucks big time. Up in Oregon I've found all my TR deluxes at $15.30 or so, I have no clue why it's not the same everywhere.

What makes it even better is that they only restock wave 3 and the first deluxe I find per wave is the one they always have the most of.

HTS has Titans Return for about 16 bucks. Thought with shipping it probably evens out to those California prices. From what I hear California has some inflation especially in Metro areas.

Sounds about right. Hot Rod is the one I see most often but Twinferno is right behind him. I only got/wanted Hot Rod and Triggerhappy, so waiting for wave 4 has been torture - I want 3/5 of those guys.

Maybe we should switch threads if you want to talk about Titans Return stuff more.

Good idea, but I'll leave you with this. The reason twonfwrno peg warms is because he has little customization potential, over packing, and spotty QC, not to mention the bland color scheme for younger audiences looking at him at a store. I'm guessing this will happen with wave 1 bee and slash, especially since you can't even generic army build unlike Berserker and to a lesser extent, Barricade. (Also in cal TLK deluxes are $21 and I don't want to know how much voyagers are)
