Check out the image, and cross your fumbling fingers for the figure to win, and keep on the odd tradition of these toys making it quite high in the rankings in previous years..!

"Transformers - The Last Knight" offers gigantic cinema action and this approximately 30 cm big Dragonstorm action figure is spectacular fun.

It includes a series of exciting features such as flapping wings and more than 20 light & sound effects, inspired by the movie.

I'm looking forward to see in-hands images of Dragonstorm. To see his REAL colors. Nevertheless, the more I see him, the more I want him. Look very cool and fun.

We have final product images that show what his colour will most probably look like, I hope that helps: https://www.seibertron.com/transformers ... mus/38206/

We have images of the back of two boxes of upcoming Transformers: The Last Knight Toys: Deluxe Bumblebee (new mold) and Voyager Scorn.
what is news here is that the cross sale on Scorn is none other than Voyager Nitro, who was not said to be part of the main line. You are free to guess what this could mean and be sure to share your thoughts on the forums!
These pictures also show us the complexities of the figures with the amount of steps, which is always fun. The images below were uploaded by 淘宝店变形金刚改造工厂 on Weibo. Enjoy!

Oh, man, those dino arms on his robot mode shoulder is a shame... reminds me of some of the worse Beast Wars figures' way of dealing with kibble. The deluxe didn't do this either so it's even more annoying.

Otherwise, he still looks bloody awesome!

The deluxe tacked them on to a butt-flap that didn't compress anywhere, this is a far better solution as it looks much less obtrusive, the part that doesn't sit so well with me is the bot mode arm just hanging out under the beast mode.

We may still be getting one, we haven't seen images of the voyager Bee yet. Glad to see pics of the deluxe Bumblebee though, I can't wait to get it! :D

Nitro looks sweet, hope voyager bee is the tank and not the battle blade mold (won't be surprised if it is though) I probably wouldn't buy it as bee, but it would make for cool remold fodder.

This DOES give a hint to awesome. But final judgement will be done when it will be seen in a real setting, not a studio.

I thought that piece folded up as a backpack. Then it's pretty decent, so yeah I'm not a fan of the arms on the shoulder either. But I'm really worried about his crotch, it looks like it connects like CW Bonecrusher. I'm worried he'll be super lose like Steelbane and that crotch won't connect.

Well looks like I'm selling my dinobots and getting the new versions.
Also I'm glad it looks like the new line uses boxes and not bubbles.

Not sure it's worth paying an extra 10$CAN just so I can recycle a box instead of a bubble. >:oP

Oh, and be careful about selling your AoE dinobots. We don't know yet if all of them will be repainted or remolded.

They're not very good boxes either - so big yet they can't even fit in a couple sentences about the character you're buying. The result is a very empty, bland looking box that makes one wonder if someone in Hasbro's marketing department is just that into negative space.

A new advert for Transformers The Last Knight Armour Turbo Change Bumblebee has appeared online. We first saw the ad a while ago, but this is the first time we've seen the full version in a higher quality. It's done in a similar style to actual car ads, and features an appearance by Knight Armor Optimus Prime, as well. Check it out below!

A Dual Model Kit comes out for Optimus Prime whenever a movie gets released and Transformers: The Last Knight is no exception. Since the design didn't change from the previous film, the Dual Model kit being released is the same as the one for Age of Extinction with some deco changes and an added base. An image of both this kit and the previous issue can be found below. The deco changes include more gold, blue, & red paint in places as well as a transparent reddish-orange shield.

I am trying to figure out why we need a Voyager Scorn :???: :???:

Loved Dinobots as a kid, never got them, so when AOE came out I got them all...well all the colorful Power Ranger-like ones anyways, none of the fancy G1 or movie inspired repaints.

Of course when I saw the movie I was a tad conflicted on why there were so many deluxe sized ones... Besides Grimlock ( I went Leader versus Voyager on that one), the only other voyager-sized one we got wasn't even in the movie :BANG_HEAD:

Before anyone bashes me for saying this...marketing, tooling, etc, etc... They're freaking Dinobots, so make them all Leader-sized, but make them Deluxe or Voyager level complexity. Transformers Prime: Beast Hunters upscaled some of their Legends to Deluxe size, I say upscale the Deluxe to Leader size.

What kid or collector wouldn't want a foot tall Dinobot?? :-D :-D

That's just me...So Voyager Scorn...meh.

I agree with this but grimlock is bigger than the others so him being leader and the others voyager makes sense. Scales for the movie toys have been weird since ROTF. I do like the idea of upscaling the deluxe though that's a solid idea. In saying that the new mould scorn is much better than the deluxe especially that Dino mode. I'm curious what warranted him getting a bigger toy. Perhaps he's the red knight we see with merlin and he'll play a big part in the last knight.
