Via Toyworld and Toyplus on Weibo, we have our first prototype images of the next project of 3P company Toyworld: TW-FS01, based on The Last Knight WWI Bulldog.
In an interesting move, Toyworld brings us a representation of a character with a brief moment on The Last Knight film, but who got attention of fans for his original alt mode. This old robot was one of the veterans who was under the care of Sir Edmund Burton. He transformed into a 1917 Mark IV tank “Bulldog” from World War I.
The prototype shown really catches Bulldog’s design seen in the movie in both modes. To make things more interesting, Bulldog is made in scale with popular Studio Series line (seems a Voyager class). According to the information shared by Toyworld on Weibo, this would be the first of a complete new line of 6 figures, which may include the WWII versions of Hot Rod and Bumblebee and a Biplane Starscream.
There’s no information on price or release date, but be sure to check our Boards for more information when it’s available. You can now check the images after the jump and then sound off on the 2005 Boards!

After years the plastic flexing in the legs got to much for my Green Hornet. Wonder if there was ever a easier way to do it

Hello guys, I want to buy a bulldog in the German snow camo version. Does anyone have one complete with box they want to sell? Message me please!

So I took advantage of a sale on TFSource on the WW2 Hot Rod and got a second. My first one ended up breaking at the die-cast spine piece, which still blows my mind, so I figured I'd get a second so that one stays in robot mode and one in alt mode because I really do like the figure. Anyways, it still came with the Starscream build-a-figure piece, one of the arms can't exactly remember which, and I figured I'd offer it up if anyone wants it. Figure maybe $15.00 plus shipping depending on the location.

Anyone ever heard of "Go Shoppi"? I found a few here but I don't know if I should trust the site. :\ If anyone has any insight? Thanks
Edit: Nevermind, did more research and all things lead to this being a scam site. That suuuucks! haha!

Thanks for the responses, thought I would be in luck but this so called business on Ali Express isn't responding so I'm about to give up. Sucks too..they are fairly new, have only been up since June and even tho there aren't a LOT of reviews, those that are there are good cept for 2 but not enough to make them seem like they're scamming…. but yeah, if they won't respond after 2/3 days, I'd say they probably aren't legit. Too bad you can't give those who you don't order from bad reviews…I've give them one for a lack of response. Most usually respond in 24 hours…so again I fear they're a fake business. I'll wait a bit longer and see if I can catch a gray one of Ebay, otherwise, I guess I'll snag a blue one, afterall.

I found it not long ago (used like new complete) for $60. Patience is key.

I keep a saved search on eBay for "tw-fs." Right now I just see yellow, tan, and white bees. But you'll be surprised what pops back up.

Sorry to bring this back up. Like the last poster, I'm really late to the party but I'm really trying to find the gray version of the TW Green Hornet but it's not lookin too good. I might be lucky enough to get a blue one. There's some other versions hiding around but no gray. I'm more prone to things that are blue anyhow. I do like the blue bot, however, I'm not digging the car look in blue. The yellow one is still up at some spots but only looks good in bot mode. Beggar's can be choosey at this point. Haha.
I'd go for the MP style but I really don't like the fact that the hammer doesn't separate like it does with the original. I know that seems like a silly reason but I like how it looks and like the fact that it fits in.
I've looked all over the place and if I'm gonna get anything anywhere, Ali Express seems like my best bet. Been bouncing back and forth the last couple of days and trying to decide if I want to make the jump. Just sucks that I somehow missed out on these when they orig came out. Before I make any decisions tho, I figured I'd check here and see if someone maybe knows a place I haven't looked yet. Thanks!
Nuffsed
Does anyone know where I can find this set please? It's the last one in the series I need and there's nothing on any website I can see, does anyone have one to sell? I know I'm late to the party but my son and I love this series and really want to complete Starscream.
Syphur
Considering buying the Barricade but he’s currently missing the spare tire. Anyone have one they’d want to part with?View attachment 29983362

Since Zeta seems to be coming out with the Gustav rail cannon guy under their ToysEasy brand, I really hope that some day they release some of these guys with better QC than Toyworld did.

Would anyone be willing to part with a left and right leg for the BAF? Looking to complete my figure
daoist
Not sure if it's been covered here before, but for anyone with the seekers, I recommend *not* trying to switch their heads. The neck clips are so delicate that trying to remove *or* insert them will break them.
…poor Thundercracker
Rewind
So I got Skyburst back in October when he was first released and decided to wait a while to transform him. I finally did it today, fully expecting something to break, be missing, be horribly loose. You know, the usual with later day ToyWorld releases. None of that! Everything moved as it should, seated into place as it should, and it all came together beautifully. Every single joint has a perfect tolerance. I have the entire WW line and by some glitch in reality it’s Skyburst that comes closest to being perfect.
Mine has exactly two issues, both minor cosmetic things: The bridge antennae/spike thing is missing and the bridge itself was assembled a little crooked. I can just take the bridge apart and reassemble it straight, but I’m not going to bother with the antennae since it’s so tiny and I kind of like having one less tiny breakable protrusion on the toy. Anyway, yay. I’m sad this line is finished but I’m grateful we got what we did, and I’m happy to end it on such a positive note.

Well, once again, I rolled the dice, took advantage of a modest ShowZ sale, and ordered Jetfire with the bonus torso to complete my red Starscream.

I'm very pleased to announce that so far, both elements arrived in good, complete condition! Now, I have yet to transform Jetfire, but that'll have to wait until I muster a little more courage. Still, my Starscream finally has a shiny new crotch plate, and that new silver torso is so nice that I may be tempted to track down its limbs (or at least mix and match with the red ones I have).
Also, with the name plate on Jetfire's stand looking so lonely, I'ma have to print out a nice little HMS Warspite card. Anyone else done the same?
Faxie
I've sent a DM
LeoJ
I’ve got the leg actually, dm me
Faxie
I have 4 BAF pieces, but I got the wrong Bumblebee version, so I'm missing a leg
Anybody knows if those are offered separately somewhere?
Furb
Yeah that must be the single reason why AliExpress should only be a last resort, no support.
Open a dispute and try to return or exchange it would be your best try

So I rolled the dice and picked up both Starscream (TW-FS06R) and Cliffjumper (TW-FS03C) during the AliExpress sale. Well, no surprise, but the former’s got some issues.
Right off the bat, the box was torn up.

The gun was in two pieces:

The spare head has a broken neck clip:

The stand arm is scuffed:

And, critically, it was missing its hip plate:
View attachment 29739863
Which I’d seen in a prior review, but I still tempted fate:
View attachment 29739856
So, yikes. Now, to be fair, alt mode looks just fine, and from the right angle, robot mode is ok:
View attachment 29739855
The seller (Mosen Store) offered a whopping $5 refund, but luckily AliExpress stepped in and upped it to $68, which seems fair. Still ain’t a new hip piece, but I guess I can apply that toward either Jetfire with the bonus torso or just the bonus torso and borrow its hip panel.
That being said, the Cliffjumper is in much better shape. Even the mold’s notoriously loose arm panels are great here.
