Transformers Studio Series Cogman, Scrapmetal and Hightower Listings Found

Posted by william-james88 Sep 26, 2018 at 10:49am CDT 19,277 views
While a lot of fans would like more Studio Series figures for characters from the Bumblebee movie, we have not seen new listings for characters like Shatter, Blitzwing or another Dripkick in his muscle car alt mode. Instead, we have found, thanks to Scotty P, an Amazon listing for a Studio Series Cogman. While this might be a new mold, the fact that there is such a strong link between the Studio Series and the TLK Premier Series line leads to the idea that this might simply be the same Cogman mld from that line reoffered, especially since the wave containing Cogman was skipped by the primary retailer market in the US (ie. Toysrus, Walmart, Target).

Along with Cogman, we remind you that there are also listings for an upcoming Drift, Scrapmetal and Hightower figure.

Here are the Amazon links below

Cogman
Drift
Scrapmetal
Hightower

Interesting, I would certainly pick up a cogman, though I do wonder when the studio series will cover the other characters from the bumblebee movie :-? Though trying to second guess hasbro is a lesson in futility.

Yep, I've moved on from trying to figure out the plan. I'm just happy when I get stuff I like and keep my mouth and wallet shut when I don't.

To be honest, while I want toysof all these bumblebee movie characters, seeing the Bumblebee makes me think its better we wait. At least now Hasbro has the full CG models and has a line where they can release these characters later. In most cases, the second toy of a character is better than the previous (Knight Optimus Prime, Hound, Crosshairs, Leader Prime from the early films, ect).

That is true, still feels like a marketing misstep, but as long as we do get them eventually.

To be fair, all the marketting is going towards the toys aimed at younger kids. This film is aimed at them (more so than the previous) and so is that film's toyline. Hasbro is basically using us (fansites) as the marketting outlet for Studio Series and getting the word out.

While Constructicons would be cool, I can’t help but think they’re a little outside of the size and price point of SS.

That, and I’d still prefer word of Bonecrusher and Hatchet to complete the teams.

Fair Warning, there is not too much to see here, but enough to know what this release entails. The small image from the instruction booklet, found on weibo, shows us that Transformers Studio Series 32 Optimus Prime is indeed the very same voyager Optimus Prime toy we got in wave 1, at least in terms of the general toy. Of course, it is a black and white CAD image so we can't be sure about the colours. We do see that the abdominal area has not been remolded to look like the Dark of the Moon rendition of Optimus but we do see that there is at least one new thing, his gun.

I wouldn't count on it, we never got proper Triple-changing toys for the movie, with the two modes split between two toys.

Also, Devastator in the movie has more components than the 6 or 7 that ended up being released as toys. At the very least, the crane arm has an additional component for the "fingers". And let's not bring up the vehicles that form his... you know... :oops:

Except combined modes are usually not counted for a Triple-Changer name, but I will admit your point. Even then, we need more (named) components for a proper movie-accurate Devastator... tho I think we all can live without... that... :oops:

wat a sec, I know the movie had costructicons in them but those guys were not what formed Devastator. As far as I know there is no in movie evidence to suggest that Devastator's components have robot modes.

This is true, and it's also worth noting that you see several components of devastator fighting at the same time you see devy climbing the pyramid.

Despite how they may have appeared in the film, I want a combining Devastator from this line done proper like the CW and PotP guys, even if not film accurate!

I'm also saddened that we keep getting more listings but no Bonecrusher or Bee movie guys yet

It looks like at least the chest windows on this new SS Prime are remolded, so that's cool. Hopefully he has the DOTM abs and they're just hard to see on the render. If this is a DOTM version, I'll be buying it for sure.

...okay, I swear there was an Amazon listing for a voyager Bonecrusher at some point that everyone got excited about, I think I even saw it (although I think it shortened his name to Voyager Bonecrush), so unless I'm just insane which I might be for all I know, Bonecrusher is coming, don't worry about it. In fact, I think that Bonecrusher listing showed up in tandem with a listing for the second Prime we're just now getting a picture and number for, so if Prime's SS-32, Bonecrusher's most likely SS-31, as there has to be SOMEONE between Crankcase and Prime and they pretty much have to be Voyager class given the progression of the numbers in correlation to the price points.

Now that that's out of the way...

Cogman: Already got TLK Cogman online months ago, I doubt I'll get this one.
Drift: No thanks.
Scrapmetal: I just mentioned yesterday that I wanted a SS Trench, and the next day a listing shows up for an obscure Constructicon with the same body type. If they actually make this and retool it into Trench, I will be shocked and amazed and buy them both, but regardless, Scrapmetal is on the purchase list now.
Hightower: If we're actually getting a proper scaled/non-Legends class figure of Hightower that actually turns into his insane robot mode design, that's going to be hilariously amazing and I need it.

Of all the constructicons, why Hightower? I'm not complaining of course, but we never even saw this guy transform did we?

Oh, we saw the Bonecrusher listing. But it's the fact that we've had reveals we didn't even have a leak for that has caused some impatience

GIVE ME MY T-REX CRANE lol. It'll be very interesting if these are true, but I kinda doubt that two absolute nobodies like Hightower and Scrapmetal would get premium figures in SS.
