Posted by Tyrannacon Feb 18, 2018 at 10:33am CST 19,703 views
Got some news today from Seibertron user, LeAwesome1 that a YouTuber by name of TheTransformerGuy R&M got their hands on the new Power of the Primes Deluxe Class Rippersnapper that is being released as part of Wave 2 of the line. A reminder for the Deluxe class Wave 2 release is the assortment is made up of Dinobots Snarl, Sludge, Autobot Moonracer, and Decepticons Blackwing and Terrorcon Rippersnapper here. While Wave 3 is yet to be released, it is nice to hear that it is leaking out to market. Be sure to check out the video below here and as always, stay with us as we bring you the latest regarding Transformers. Also happy hunting to those interested in owning this figure.

Another name for the Authentics line used by Hasbro.

So does this mean inferno isn't happening? What about project storm? Seems odd to leave those things out and save them for SDCC when they'll most likely be focusing on War for Cybertron.


Whoa there, slow down those pessimistic thoughts!

First of, Inferno is still happening in Wave 3, (early) Summer. Secondly, we still have a Wave or 2 in all Classes that's unknown to us (the possible Wave 5 would be a tight squeeze, unless the WFC Trilogy is scooted up a Wave or if's released side-by-side. We can hope!). Finally, we haven't even hit Spring, let alone the half-year mark.

Project Storm is nothing more but the Authentics, as explained before.

War for Cybertron starts in January of 2019, there are typically 4 waves in a year and Novastar is the only new figure in wave 4 as shown in the original leaks. There's no reason to believe that any new figures have yet to be revealed for potp besides exclusives.

I am soo ready for Optimal Optimus. Too bad they skipped the gorilla truck mode, some wheels and all you have to do is fold up the wings, but oh well. Still looks great.

Wave 4 of the Deluxes, but the other Classes only had 3 leaked.

Which could just mean that there are no other classes in wave 4. Much like wave 6 of Titans return.

My main negative is that they dont change anything about his forearms between modes. The gorilla mode and Robot mode already share everything in the lower body so I would hope for at least some kind of change in the arms, like the original toy has. but no. So basically, just the chest and head change between two modes.


He's mistransformed. On closeup you can see attachement points on and for the arm shields. Also on the gray models we got some month ago we can see the arm shiels monted on shoulders oon robot mode.

He's mistransformed on all his forms in fact. The legs of the gorilla are supposed to retract, and not sitting like an old He-Man figure.

Same for the backpack head, too hard to rotate at the show ?

(Yes, I'm the guy who love and will defend this toy whathever happens).

The original leaks only showed us Wave 4 for deluxes. We didnt see wave 4 for the other classes so we do not know if the waves of other classes will have new figures or just be repacks.

Thanks for all the info. I especially like the bit about the retractable legs, that means all his limbs need some form of change from one mode to the next, and that does make it a plus over the original.

It's a shame PotP is ending so soon. Guess if I want more combiners, I'll try to get some of the other boxset (G2 Superion, G2 Bruticus and Computron) if I'm not going to have to check the budget for waves 5-6. Or even 4 if it's mostly repacks.
