Thanks to the weibo page of TF-Factory, we have new images of upcoming Wave 2 figures from the Studio Series movie figures. The upcoming deluxe wave contains a new Jazz figure as well as the Age of Extinction baddy, Lockdown. The voyagers shown feature a Movie one Brawl and a Revenge of the Fallen Megatron. These images give us a good look at the figures in both modes, their diorama backgrounds and even measurements for the vehicle modes. You can check out all the images after the jump.

It more or less depends on the copy you get. Mine is pretty much fine aside from a loose shoulder. The instructions don’t help with avoiding the roof pop-age either since it tells you to transform it in a way that the roof popping off is near unavoidable.

lol well damn that sucks

Too many parts pop off, all of which use weak friction tabbing when metal pins should have been used. You need to take as much care in transforming him as you would in disarming a bomb. Not even joking. I'm in the middle of trying to warp the plastic on the roof section in hopes that it will lessen the likelihood of popping off during transformation. I'll be doing the same to other parts later.

I was thinking of getting Bumblebee just to have the full Autobot cast from the first movie. I suppose he just isn't worth it…?
Richard McBeef
I can't wait to get Jazz. Glad he doesn't have a ton of parts popping off of him like Bumblebee. What an absolute shit toy that is…

Agreed, I dont know where else those pieces could have gone, and im sure the 3parties solution will just be more hinges/breaks to tuck away more neatly, not much of an issue imo

Interesting how people are getting all twisted up over Lockdown's backpack. I don't even notice it when looking at pictures of the figure because everything else is so awesome. It's like going out with your ugly friends– or good looking friends. No offense, I don't know whos ugly and I wish to avoid unfairness. It's like that because you'll look super pretty (or extra ugly) next to 'em.
Anyway, I guess it's just one of those things that just bugs some people. For me, seeing baby HA Jazz's headlamps on his shoulders and the fake, molded headlamps on the wrists drives me bananas.
I still want him though as I understand these toys will be imperfect as they're based on magically scaling computer models from movies where producers completely forget characters and entire plots between films. To expect otherwise would be super bananas.

I have Megatron and Brawl. Got both off of amazon for msrp. The Voyager Class in this line really hits the perfect balance in looks, transformation, and quality. Highly recommend these two.

not sure if anyone cares but these are up on Amazon.ca from Amazon

So I don't want to make a wishlist thread, but I needed to tell this…
How's about Studio Series ApplianceCons?
They could release them under Voyager pricepoint with two in one set, Legends size (same as how they sold Wingspan and Cloudraker). They could do Ejector, Cappucino Machine, D*ckbot the Blender Guy, Shredderdoggy… maybe lump in Frenzy and Scalpel too in this category.

I just had the great idea of trying to mix the faces with those celebrity face things and try to recreate what an mpm version might look like.

Come to think of it, Brawl has a pretty Autobot-esque head compared to other movie Decepticons.
I used to think he almost looked cute.
spikebuster
No thank you.
Mako Crab
Every time I see Brawl’s face, I just think of Short Circuit.
But yeah, these guys look great.

I'm legit saliv8ing over Lockdown, tbh.
MrNiceGuy
Technically true, but those are just clones of Rampage and Long Haul.
The 7 have actual robot mode designs drawn up, and all had legends figures as well.

Mpm jetfire to go with mpm prime first

Stinger is a pretty complicated design to realize and wasn't that major of a character.
