Wave 1 of Transformers WFC Siege Fully Revealed with Megatron, Shockwave, Skytread and More

Thanks to fellow Seibertronian Autobot N, we now have what will probably be the entirety of Transformers Siege Wave 1 revealed. The listings for the remaining Micromasters, Battle Masters, deluxe, voyager and leader all come from Midtown Comics. These listings were accompanied by the listings of the wave 1 toys we already knew such as Optimus Prime and Hound. These listings reveal the identity of the mysterious Deluxe "S", which turns out to by Skytread, which was the name they used for Flywheels. Now this can mean many things. It can be a deluxe that can have 2 alt modes, or a splitting partsformer, similar to Cog, with elements of the two alt modes, or even two legends class toys, though that last one might be a stretch for the deluxe price point.

Here are the new listings:

Blowpipe
Skytread!
Shockwave
Airstrike Patrol
Megatron

This means the full wave 1 for Transformers Siege is the following:

Micromasters: Race Patrol, Battle Patrol, Air Strike Patrol
Battle Masters: Firedrive , Lionizer, Blowpipe
Deluxe: Cog, Hound, Sideswipe, Skytread
Voyager: Optimus Prime, Megatron
Leader: Ultra Magnus, Shockwave

As you can see, Shockwave is in the leader class though with both him and Magnus being in the Prime Wars contest for a leader class toy and with us knowing that all those toys were going to have an evolution gimmick (with Seige Magnus still sporting that), it could be that leader Shockwave would be a voyager Shockwave with armour pieces for an ultimate form.

I'm really hoping somewhere down the line we'll get a new StarSaber. He's just too cool for words.

...alright, no spoilers of course but anyone who's up to date with IDW is surely hoping for exactly the same thing from the armoured-shockwave possibility. Long shot, but a man can dream ;)

We've been over this: IDW is ending. Hasbro won't be putting anymore IDW-inspired material. At least not stuff that isn't part of the reboot. The old timeline is over, finished.

Given the track record of past Shockwaves it's going to be a purple...pile of nothing loosely called a tank and/or space ship.

I'm not sure that two Legends class figures that turn into one deluxe would be a stretch, price-wise. If deluxes are going up to $20, that's what the price is already for Battletrap.

My guess is that, unlike Battletrap, he laxcks the individual robot modes for the components.

Same price as the deluxes at walgreens, which was 17.99 or 19.99 depending on the walgreens.

You realize you're saying this about a toy line based specifically on a single Transformers episode from 1984, right? That story line ended 34 years ago and yet here we are. It doesn't matter if a story line has ended in the comics, they'll continue to insert characters, designs, and ideas into the toy line where they feel they make sense. They've shown so little interest in IDW within the toy line that that disinterest is why they probably wont make that Shockwave, not because the story is ending.

I like that Ironhide and Skytread are on the way, but I was hoping the Throttlebots, Joyride, Slapdash, Seacons and others were on the way next year. I wasn't expecting a revisit to War for Cybertron right now. :BOT: :CON:

Oh, please please please Hasbro... Make Flywheels/Sky Tread like Battle Trap... Please! If he's a weaponizer, I'll be annoyed, but I could "deal"... Mostly cause then I could armor up Battletrap with his buddy xD Seige is slowly winning me over with the deluxes, not so much the other reveals though. Oh well, finger crossed we get pics of what they look like at the Canadian convention that I can't remember the name of

Well, being a tank and jet he could 'weaponize' into turrets, armor and a jetpack?
