And... just, which toys are they recording these for, exactly?

Looking over lists of AOE toys, I can't see any that make use of any electronic sounds aside from Chomp & Stomp Grimlock.

That was my exact same question. Also unanswered.

Maybe it's a feature of Chomp and Stomp Grimlock, when interacting with the small figures? I can't remember if any review shows if that feature is actually a thing or not. :-?

The Transformers Columbia Facebook page has some nice in-package images of the upcoming Kre-O Custom Kreons Wave 3. This wave includes 4 of the Dinobots including Grimlock, Scorn, Strafe and Slug. This wave continues the tradition of chromed helmets, weapons and also loaded with extra parts.

Scorn and Slug are supposed to be knights? Surely you jest!

Why do all the other Dinobots have helmet-like faces and Grimlock has a regular mouth? Makes no sense to me.

These and the 2nd wave before it will be the last of my Kreons if they don't go back to putting IDs on the bind bagged figures. Not wasting money on doubles.

Transformers Colombia , a Facebook fan page, has provided the first official in and out of package images of the upcoming Age Of Extinction Power Attackers Galvatron, courtesy of group member Felipe León Nájera. What makes this so special is, he's packaged in a box, instead of a card! This is the first time we're seeing figure packaging like this for a recent US Transformers line. Will we see more? Is this the start of a new trend? Only time will tell, and you'll know as soon as we do!

Galvatron features a spinning chest grinder feature and has a limited, kid friendly transformation as part of the simplified and gimmick-based line of Age Of Extinction toys.

We've mirrored the image below:

Another sighting from Bounti76, this time for the Transformers Age of Extinction line: the two-pack Evolution Optimus Prime set! Including a repaint of the Classics Voyager Optimus, and the Age of Extinction Generations Voyager Evasion Mode redeco with new head sculpt exactly the same head, just with painted eyes (contrarily to all stock and promo photography) - photo proof below! These figures also come from a Toys R Us in Murray, Utah; make you sure you flag up your own sightings in the appropriate section too!

For our Canadian friends and fellow fans, william-james88 has spotted the Toys'R'Us.ca listing for the Age of Extinction Optimus Evolution two-pack we just reported on. Priced at 49.99 CDN$, it appears to come with French included on the box, meaning that its distribution will not be limited to the Anglophone areas! Expected shipping date is October 17, and can be found here.

Optimus Prime meets Optimus Prime in this awesome 2-pack! You can see the evolution of your favorite Autobot from then to now in these 2 Optimus Prime figures. Both your classic and your Age of Extinction Optimus Prime figures convert from robot mode to semi truck mode and back. Can the Decepticons handle not one, but 2 fighting Optimus Primes? Its up to you!

Includes 2 figures.
Optimus Prime figure pack includes 1 classic figure and 1 Age of Extinction figure
Both figures convert from robot mode to vehicle mode
Each figure comes with blaster
Both figures convert in 8 steps

This is a very interesting picture....you can't really tell from my picture, but I'm positive that the Optimus in the Evolution pack I spotted did NOT have the faceplate shown on TRU's Canadian listing. Odd.
