Transformers One Toyline Includes Alpha Trizer Homage

So do both Primes have a blast effect peg on the top of the axe & does that mean it's also a gun?

Why is MPM Brawl here in the TF One toy thread?

Gotta say, I prefer the mainline Orion/Optimus.

He'll probably be able to fire blasts out of it. What's strange is the SS figure treats it like a normal energy axe that covers his whole hand, but the main line figure has it apparently projecting from his palm complete with painted finger details (that I'll be very impressed if they paint on the final figure).

Thank God for the subtitles!

Seriously, this Optimus look fun.

It might be nothing, just me looking too much into it, but man does Alpha Trion’s head sure look like Unicron’s.

While Hasbro has released some press info stating that plastic windows are coming back to their action figure lines, they are not coming to the Transformers line this year. We have an image of the upcoming Transformers One toys in their packaging and they all have open windows, as we've had for the Rise of the Beasts toyline. If you are wondering when the plastic windows would come back, it would be in 2025.

We know this from an answer given by Ben MacCrae of Hasbro, who confirmed this to the crowd at Wondercon. We have a video below showing you this, you can go wo the 40 minute mark. He says this is for the Studio Series line, so it is unknown if all Transformers lines will be getting plastic windows back next year.

Speaking of videos, we also have a video of the transformation for the upcoming Studio Series Transformers One Optimus Prime. We thank Overcracker for letting us know of it.

Seems the yellow tan plastic is not quite as as yellowey tan in reality. Transformation is very interesting.

Parts on Orion Pax match up with parts on the Optimus Prime toys we've seen. Now we know that Pax doesn't become Prime until he gets the Matrix so I think all the toys will use the Optimus Prime name since only we few, we noble few, know who Orion Pax is.

Literally says Orion Pax on the front of the Prime Changer box.

Correction, it says Orion Pax/Optimus Prime. So Optimus Prime is on the box somewhere.

My point is they aren't shying away from the name, there will be more figures with the name on it. But is it really that few of us that already know? Aside from the character arc in the G1 cartoon the name has been used in comics, later cartoons, and we've had how many proper Transforming figures now? Six? One even turns into Optimus Prime, it isn't the rare bit of trivia that it was 20 years ago.
