We have preorders for reissues of DOTM Soundwave (in his normal packaging) and ROTF Overload, who’s sporting some awesome new packaging as part of a new thing the packaging calls “Power Collection” and the description calls “MTMTE Collection”

I don't think Soundwave is part of that, though, I think he's going to be a straight reissue like the Bumblebee that's currently in stores.

Yeah, him and SS Scavenger.
So many SS Scavengers. That one can even be found to these days.

That would explain why they were both completely scarce down here. Your stores took them all.-Kanrabat- wrote:Sabrblade wrote:Maybe in your neck of the woods.-Kanrabat- wrote:Reissuing SS Overload is pretty random. Especially because it was a shelfwarmer for a looooooong time.

Taking a look at our tournament this year compared to 2022, There were some similarities (including our champion), but also some variety! Highlight include all 3 AOE Dinobots making the bracket in 2024, our first ROTB rep with Stratosphere, and AOE Hound skyrocketing from 15th seed in 2022 to our #1 seed this year!
While Devcon did reclaim his title as the most wanted, the truth is ALL of these figures should be made in the Studio Series line! Making the top 16 out of more than 50-60 characters shows ther's demand for all of these characters. Let's complete the cast!
Of course, thank you all so much for voting and making your voices heard. You are what makes this tournament fun to make each year!

Two major flaws about this very, very good toy. The head snap inside for vehicle mode so you need a screwdriver to pop it back out for the bot. I had to shave off the clip with an cutter. Second fault are the hollow arms and no wrists. Still, I was pleasantly surprised.

I'm kicking myself for skipping on the first two SS Dreads.

They could conceivably either redeco this, or retool it further into a 2 pack of the Gatekeeper and Keymaster demons/hellhounds of Zuul for a Ghostbusters crossover. It would be one way to make some extra cash off the tooling that was done years ago and suopplement Ectotron with some rivals. Throw in a generic minifig of Sigourney Weaver and Rick Moranis and we are all set. That would be awesome and give us a few more crossover "bad guys".
Please make it happen Hasbro!!!

The mouth is the same, the metallic paint just obscures and alters the way the details look.

They really should, '18-'19 was a long time ago. Would be a good opportunity for a 2-pack at Target or somewhere.

They were once everywhere and often on sale. They could be found for cheap at my local geek store.
I skipped them all and now, it is too late.

Just pray they switch out SS Crankcase for a redeco of TLK Berserker.

Exactly right! I managed to grab TLK Berserker just in time to turn one into Crankcase, but it'd be great to get a real Crankcase in the line! Might be a good opportunity to include Crankcase and Crowbar's blasters too.
Hatchet just went up for preorder, got one! Very excited to finally have another Bayverse deluxe on the way in the main line after (by the time it releases) more than 2 years!
Posted by Emerje on October 22nd, 2024 @ 4:02pm CDT
We're supposed to be getting a new Deluxe Bumblebee movie Bee (though that might have become One B-127) and Leader Apelinq in this wave, those will probably be shown this weekend.

Galvatron is definitely a lazy release. Hope they don't do the same thing for Megatron now, and re-issue the same Siege mold yet again but with minimal deco changes.
That is now, a definite possibility.

Megatron is going to be a Leader class, which I know doesn't mean much after Legacy United Soundwave, but I'm pretty sure the leakers were saying it's a new mold for sure. After Concept Megatron I don't think it'll take much for it to be a Leader, especially if it's going to be height matched to CC Optimus Prime.

Man, I hope they eventually do a real Crankcase too... I still don't understand how that mix-up happened. The dreads had really cool blasters too, I think they were the blasters used by the Decepticon protoforms in general?

Not really, Galvatron is getting rereleased as is because he's plenty accurate already. But Earthrise Megatron is nowhere near screen accurate enough in robot mode to fit with Studio Series, so he'll get a new toy for sure.

It's not a straight rerelease. Galvatron's colors have been changed.Rtron wrote:Not really, Galvatron is getting rereleased as is because he's plenty accurate already.

First up is DOTM Que, who looks spectacular! Note that he has the big gun thing he wears on his back in the movie, and has his tools built in!
Next up is MV6 Bee, who is actually a heavy retool of SS-18! The vehicle shell is largely reused but pretty much all the inner structure is new. He does have door wings but they can reportedly swivel down now.
We also have a repack of 86 Jazz:
WFC Ironhide, who actually has more retooling than I thought from Ratchet. Includes what’s either a scatter blaster or EMP shotgun:
And lastly is AOE Prime! Important note that the colors in this render are incomplete per Hasbro. Love that the sword and shield are properly scaled! Definitely need to see more pics!
