Thanks 2005 Boards user eceiev who shared in our boards some images from Weibo showing part of the packaging of the upcoming War For Cybertron: Siege – Autobot Alphastrike Counterforce Multi-Pack (G2 Sideswipe, Slamdance and Trenchfoot).

This multipack include a redeco of Siege Sideswipe in glorious G2 colors and named “Covert Clone Sideswipe”. He will be packed with Slamdance (GrandSlam & Raindance) who is a nice redeco with a new head of Siege Skytread, and Battlemaster Trenchfoot (Aimless redeco).

We are yet to see the full packaging, but the images reveal a great box art for Sideswipe and the back shows the three toys included on this pack.

under Transformers Cyberverse

The new Transformers: Cyberverse Spark Armor Optimus hit Australian shelves a few days ago, and courtesy of 2005 Boards member griffin-of-oz, we can share for you our first in-hand images of the biggest toy to date in the Transformers: Cyberverse line.

This new Optimus Prime mold is part of the new Cyberverse: Power Of The Spark sub-line and brings us a simple and fun Optimus Prime figure with an Ark vehicle that can split in parts and become a new Spark Armor for the Autobot leader. The combined toy is even bigger than the Cyberverse Ultimate Optimus Prime figure. The images show details of the packaging and inserts, as well as several comparison shots with other Cyberverse Optimus Prime figures.

This mold seems to be a fun toy for sure, but is still an easy-to-transform figure that works better on playability than other aspects like articulation (no knees on this toy, sadly).

Via Weibo user 漫港湾 we have our first look at a new Transformers: The Last Knight Bumblebee Statue By Damtoys,

This new statue features an amazing Bumblebee sculpt and finishing. The brave yellow Autobot is standing ready to shoot his arm blaster and holding his battle hammer. To make things even more detailed, the base is a mix of Cybertron terrain with the body of a destroyed Nitro Zeus.  Bumblebee’s arm blaster and Nitro’s head have got LED lights and you can choose between two interchangeable heads for display (normal head and battle mask).

We still have no information on release date or final price, but stay tuned with TFW2005 for more information once it’s available. Click on the bar to see the mirrored gallery and let us know your impressions on the 2005 Boards!

Good news for fellow UK collectors. Vi a a post in our United Kingdom Transformers Sighting Forum we can report that the Transformers War For Cybertron: Siege Leader Class Galaxy Upgrade Optimus Prime is out at UK retail.

This great new Leader class mold was spotted at Smyths in Wigan. Time to dash to your local stores to try to find this new incarnation of Optimus Prime for the Siege line.

Happy hunting!

under Beast Wars, Transformers Masterpiece

The recently revealed Masterpiece MP-48 Lio Convoy at Tokyo Toy Show has not shown any extra accessories so far. A small scan from the last Figure King Magazine shows a clear shot at a Beast Wars II Artemis Figurine that may be included as part of Lio Convoy extra accessories.

For those unfamiliar with this character, she was a regular character from the Japanese Beast Wars II series, which is where Lio Convoy was one of the main protagonists. She’s a robotic teen girl who was like a sentinel of Planet Gaia, watching over the planet from the moon. The figurine looks very cartoon-accurate and fairly articulated.

Stay tuned with TFW2005 for further details and updates. Figure King Magazine images should surface soon and we may see more about MP Lio Convoy and the extra parts or accessories included (Artemis’ transforming rabbit Moon maybe?).
