Thanks to Twitter user Ryan Sheehey, we have our first look at the three upcoming Studio Series figures whose reveals were teased a few days ago by Hasbro. Those four are Sideswipe, Barricade, Crankcase and World War II Bumblebee, and they’re on display at Fan Expo Canada! All four are deluxes and seem to include a fair amount of weaponry. Sideswipe comes with the dual-wield double-barrel weapons he was sporting in Dark of the Moon, Barricade has appropriately been given a sizable arm flail with which to beat up on Bee, Crankcase seems to be a straight repaint of the Crowbar mold but with a new head, and the WWII-style Bumblebee with his turret gun and hammer. The Bumblebee, while not athletic and yellow, is indeed accurate in his bulkiness and military green paint job. This version pays homage to one of Bee’s earlier forms seen in The Last Knight where he fights alongside the Allied forces.
No release info is available at this time, but be sure to check out the pics after the jump and share your thoughts and excitement in the discussion below!

Only a matter of time.
Just your usual MTMTE fan
I really hope we get to see more of the guy soon. He looks like he’s gonna be the Bee’s knees and I CANNOT WAIT to get my hands on this guy.

While this image remains unverified theres one thing that's real there's a second optimus prime due in studio series thanks to a listing and some of the talk from confidential sources claim that the second optimus is Dotm like the image.

I'm not even convinced it is real. Looks nice though, but I would temper expectations until something concrete is shown.
Jolt the volt
Is this new?

Totally agree on that
oo a toi
Again, they should just do the figure right.

You're not missing much as far as the original release is concerned. Just a remold of AoE Lockdown and like McBeef said above, no where near as accurate in bot mode as it should be. A fresh new design is definitely much needed for him.

I've been eyeballing the 3rd party version of it but I'm broke. Lol
They hasbro should use that figure and kinda "cheapen" it down if that makes sense.
They should also do the same to that 3rd party Dino.. I know he's deluxeish size but price.

It's an okay figure, but hardly screen accurate. Really hoping for a Studio Series version next year.

A million times yes to the TLK Hotrod.
I never got my hand on the original one.

Definitely picking up WW2 BB and Barricade. Here\'s hoping for a WW@ HotRod and even a more screen Accurate TLK Rod too
