Thanks to notifications from several Seibertronians, we have news of 3 new video reviews from Transformers: The Last Knight for you to check out!
The first review is a full english review of Leader Dragonstorm, as posted by Chefatron. You can find the previous Asian language review and Chefatron english neck issue video HERE.
Up next are a pair of Asian language reviews, complete with English subtitles, for the upcoming deluxe class Crosshairs and Bumblebee! These reviews come from Kevin Liu, and can be found below. Check them all out, and let us know what you think of them in the comments section below!
They went through all the work to give Bumblebee a plasma cannon arm just to have it only work on the WRONG ARM?! Bee's plasma cannon is a part of his right arm, not his left. I'm still getting the figure, It still looks great, but I may have to do some modding or something because that's really annoying.

I can't watch the vid at moment (just gaze lovingly at the main pic it shows) but does it say the right forearm can't be removed the same way the left can? Like are they not done the exact same way of joining to the upper arm? If it can then no problem I guess.
I just want that figure here so I can play with it already.

Looks like it may work on both arms for fans have been fans of transformers you think they would know how all deluxe, leader voyager figures articulation is by now they all move same way same with legend class all they do is transform differently

It seems like the cannon can go on his right arm, but the elbow won't bend in that direction. Hopefully there'll be more details on exactly how it works soon.

Hooray, a review of Crosshairs! I missed him the first time round during AoE and I've been thinking that this might be a good opportunity to get a hold of him (and not even at a higher price, given that Deluxe prices were already so crazy here that the Premier line isn't actually any more expensive than AoE toys were). I guess now I can make a proper assessment on the alterations to the figure and see if he'll be worth picking up when I see him 6 months from now.
(Also, you've got an extra dash in that first URL link D-Max. It's not really an issue honestly but if you're like me, I thought you'd want to be made aware that it's broken.)
Here is some odd news, the Reveal the Shield subline of Transformers the Last Knight is not exclusive to Target. At least not the entire subline. Seibertronians Cprime18, rodimusconvoy13 and Terrsolpix all found the Voyager Reveal the Shield Optimus Prime (the one with the pink dots everywhere) at Toysrus across the US. We don't have any images to share but that's enough sightings to conclude that this is true (also a reminder to all you wonderful fans sending us sighitngs, please be sure to send a picture too). The exclusive tiny turbo changer 3-pack has yet to be seen in the US so we don't know if it will show up at Target or Toysrus. Let us know when you gind that one! If any of you have seen this voyager or other hot toys, please let fans know in the sightings section and sightings forum.
Glad I was able to aid in this story, but has this Optimus even been found a true Targets? I saw the sextuple pack of shelfwarms there the other week, but I don't recall seeing Spotimus.

Nope, and technically it was never confirmed taht the Reveal teh Shield line would be target exclusive, we just assumed it based on the big red dot on the box.
All we know is taht these toys are exclusive to a specific retailer and it turns out that some from that subline are exclusive to target and some are exclusive to TRU.
We saw him listed on Asda's website in the UK, we saw his wave mate Bumblebee in stores, and now we finally have a US retail sighting for the Transformers The Last Knight flip and change Hot Rod! The toy, coming from Seibertronian cdavid3, was found in a California Wal-Mart for a retail price of $19.87. The figure is a redeco and remold of the Age Of Extinction Lockdown Flip And Change figure, and is an exclusive to Wal-Mart stores in the US, as he's a part of Wal-Mart's Autobots Unite subline. Check out the provides photo of the sighting below, and report any new toys you find anywhere in the world via the sightings tab in the "Toys" menu!

Its all the same. The only way to see if its a variant is to look at the very bottom of the clear plastic roof that you see unfolded in the packaging. If its really black at the bottom that means that what is on top of that clear plastic piece is also black and thus you know you have a fully black roof all across the top of the car. I hope this pic helps, you can see that the bottom fo th back section is all black in the package:
We have some HUGE news coming in today regarding some new Transformers The Last Knight toys hitting retail! Seibertronian Whirlkick has spotted not only the Autobots Unite Legion Class Two Packs, but also the highly anticipated Transformers Last Knight Deluxe Hot Rod figure, at an ASDA store in the UK! This confirms that the two packs, consisting of one with Hot Rod and Bumblebee and another with Megatron and Berserker, as well as Deluxe Hot Rod have started to trickle into stores, so it's only a matter of time before we see them in the US. It also reinforces the fact that while the Autobots Unite subline is a Wal-Mart exclusive in the US, it will be exclusive to ASDA in the UK. This makes sense, as Wal-Mart is ASDA's parent company. Check out the photographic proof below, and let us know in the forums if you've seen any new toys in stores near you.
My ASDA is terrible for toys so I don't expect they will get him in - he is on the website though as is the 2 pack and Trypticon (for £150) so I'll see if they reduce them a bit before I consider biting £25.00 is a bit much for a remould.
