Transformers Siege Deluxe Wave 3 Found at US Retail

Skritz wrote:So only 50% related to Siege but I finally decided to transform my Titans Return Scourge and found out that, of all the targetmaster characters he seem to be among those who got a 5mm port in juuuust the right place to add the G1 accurate targetmaster without any friction or requiring modding. Of course, talking the Hasbro version of course.

Hopefully his partner make an appearance in the trilogy otherwise someone is getting dipped in black paint...

He is an amazing figure, and the most posable transformer in my collection. He will display excellently with my Siege Megatron

Can you post a pic of the reciept and tag? This would be news.

No kidding huge news!


So I've been digging Galaxy OP and I've decided to pick up another one so I can enjoy Prime with upgrade armour and without. Next to voyager Prime it really is a cool figure...'nuff said!

That's cool to hear, I really think Galaxy OP is a great figure, as great as Magnus.

I will gladly find the receipt for you guys, but right now I can't find it. I'm one of those weirdos who keeps receipts, and I remember putting it on my table next to me, but this morning, it's nowhere to be found. I really hope I didn't misplace it, but hopefully I will find it

I encourage others to check their Walmarts to see if others have this, and it's not a mistake at my local ones.

Has anyone tried integrating the weaponizers with their titans yet?

Nemesis Primal wrote:...so I read the latest article put up about the card game again out of curiosity, and I think I see another potential first look at a figure. Last time I did this, I got shot down pretty quickly, but I think this might be accurate, given who it is:

Siege Ratchet maybe.JPG

-We know Ratchet is coming already
-That does appear to be the Ironhide mold
-Has the cartoon-accurate white helmet and black crest I recall most people on this thread expecting
-Most importantly, this card is a DIFFERENT design for Ratchet than the one on his individual card, as his individual card looked to be based off the old Universe mold

So if I'm right this time, then Ratchet absolutely has a molded-on lightbar like I was hoping, a cartoon-accurate head, and possibly those accessories? I'm taking the accessories with a grain of salt for now. I know Ratchet appeared in his Siege design in the new IDW run already, does anyone who's seen it want to confirm or deny this?

Weirldy, the weaponizers (and micromasters) are the ones I'm passing on. Not that I don't like them, but to me they are parts of figures I don't have and will likely never get.

I don't Fort Max of Metroplex, but that hasn't stopped me picking up Cog and Sixgun. I don't have Trypticon, but I will be getting Brunt. The beauty of the weaponisers is the fact that you don't need their associated titan to be able to enjoy them, as they can bu utilized by other figures and (IMHO) they are nice enough figures in their own right.

Hasbro is trying to keep a standard image throughout its transformers media and thus the cards have had a lot of Siege themed designs in their art lately. In the latest card reveals, we have an image of Ratchet on the Take Cover card (shown below) and that image shows Ratchet in an identical body to Siege deluxe Ironhide. So this could be our first look at the deco for the upcoming Walgreens exclusive Ratchet. The art shows him with a black crest on a white helmet, which is Ratchet's standard colour scheme in the G1 cartoon.

He appeared in issue 4 of the comic in that body.

Nexus Knight wrote:Yeah, and while it's noticable enough to see that it is Siege Ironhides body, there are notable differences, especially in the shoulders. The comic version sports a red cross on the left shoulder, while this card version shows a red stripe on both. There is also some details on the shoulders that don't correspond with each. Plus, the card figure is in better lighting, which gives us more colors than the pale blue glow in the comic, plus we can see more in the card.

It would be rather early for Walmart. The release date for these toys is July 2019.

That's weird, the more common version of the story I've heard is simply trademark infringement of the Red Cross logo... at least since the 2000's

This logo is trademarked by the organizations, who enforce the use of their marks heavily these days. Modern Transformers toys can no longer sport the logo, as it could be considered an abuse of the symbol's meaning. The red cross symbol was in fact incorrectly used on all of the aforementioned toys to begin with, since the symbol represents humanitarian organizations that normally don't operate regular urban ambulances.

A Slammer redeco would be close to the original comics inspiration.

Wouldn't hold out hope for a two-pack with a Scamper based off Sideswipe, since we're already getting a two-pack with a black and red 'Swipe.

We don't really need another Scamper, though. We have a perfectly good Scamper that comes with Titan Class Metroplex already, and it's a unique mold, not a retool of Sideswipe. Nothing says Scamper, Slammer, and Six Gun all need to be the same size class. Let's just be happy with a retool/repaint of Brunt into Slammer.
