Thank to 2005 Boards member Jtprime17, we can share for you our first images of the upcoming new Studio Series figures: SS-43 AOE KSI Boss, SS-44 DOTM Jetwing Optimus Prime, SS-45 AOE Drift (Helicopter) & SS-47 ROTF Hightower.
The images surfaced via Brickseek.com as part of Walmart inventory. We have very nice additions to the popular Studio Series toyline:
- SS-43 Voyager Class Age Of Extinction KSI Boss – It’s clearly a repaint (and possible remold) of the The Last Knight Nitro Zeus mold.
- SS-44 Leader Class Dark Of The Moon Jetwing Optimus Prime – An impressive reuse of what seems to be SS-32 Voyager Optimus Prime with several extra parts and wings to recreate his flying mode as seen in the movie.
- SS-45 Deluxe Class SS-45 Age Of Extinction Drift (Helicopter) – We can identify him as an extensive remold of the SS-22 Deluxe Dropkick mold,
- SS-47 Deluxe Class Revenge Of The Fallen Hightower – Finally, our first Deluxe mold of one of the live-action movies Constructicons which didn’t have much screening time and formed part of Devastator’s arm.
Not much left to say, but we may see all of them at Toyfair this weekend. Don’t miss TFW2005 coverage of the event for more reveals. Click on the bar to see all the mirrored images on this news post and then sound off on the 2005 Boards!
Update 02/15/2019 2:30am EST: Thanks to 2005 Boards Member Jtprime17, Sweaty Ruxpin of Twitter and TFND of Facebook; who did some digging on the Brickseek website, we now have even more images of the aforementioned toys. You can check them out, after the jump.

Sorry about the repost, most of the time I jump straight to the boards without checking the front page. Seems I was 2 days behind as well…
Nevermore
It has been brought up, it's even still on the front page as of this writing!

Man! If this isn’t the coolest mainline Optimus Prime we’ll see in a long time, I don’t what else will.
Digger
He’s a commander class! It’s gonna be $150!
Lazerwave
I wonder if this makes his package wider than a normal Leader Class Box.
Digger
Gotta fill up that leader box!
Fort Max
Lol, he comes packaged in his ring.

I hope this gets an OSKO with a trailer that will for MPM Optimus…
Tprime
Apologies if this has been brought up already but I noticed TFsource put up new pictures of SS44 DOTM Optimus Prime (but not on their website?) on their instagram feed, I hadn't seen the picture of the full alt mode and trailer before. I had also wondered how they were going to fit all of that in a leader size box

the jet wing prime is compatible with everything…
Prime135
Just buy this one and leader jetfire….? Then you’ll quite literally have a prime that works with every display, interchangeable abs and all.

Dude, Hasbro didn't know SS would catch on like it has. Just because a figure looks good on paper doesn't mean something stupid can't happen to the final release and tank the line. We all thought MPM4 would replace the Leader Prime, and the QC ticked off enough people that some would rather buy the knock-off versions. Jetfire was probably stuck in the concept stage until HasTak knew they struck gold, meaning the first SS Prime was just that: a standalone Prime. Once the line took off, risks could be taken.
Also, not everyone can just buy whatever they want, even if they budget- life happens. I got stuck paying an extra $400 last month in car repairs. Different versions give more options to customers.

This. And it’s too small to scale with anything I collect.
maxxzander
this jetwing op is gonna be my 3rd studio series op..again, same mold with minor changes … fcuk u Hasbro u just can\'t make 1 Optimus that is compatible for all the series can\'t u??!!!
Lazerwave
I'm surprised Hightower is that big.
It took me a while, but I also thought Hightower is what you get when you cross BW Megatron with BW Scorponok. I know, lame.
God Orion
Actually, doesn't seem too expensive when you look at the pre-order link here: Transformers Studio Series 44 Leader Optimus Prime
How tall is this going to be approximately?
EDIT: 21.60 cms,that was in this preorder link.
Lazerwave
If Hasbro can accommodate all those characters, I'd say studio series needs to last till 2021 or 2022.
God Orion
That DOTM Optius Prime is really nice. I will probably not get it but if I could, I definitely would. Seems the best mold yet with the option for wings to recreate that scene from the third movie.

That OP with weapon platform trailer is literally a figure dream come true for me. If there's one thing I'd complain about it's that they're sticking with "closed fists"; then again, I totally get it and I'm all in for 5mm compatibility, but I also loved the "open hands" thing they had going on with some Generations figures back in the day. I just think it would look pretty cool with that Prime. Anyway, I'm excited! Unfortunately it'll take long enough for me to be able to afford these recent TF needs properly (ah, importing…) but yeah, I'm definitely not gonna miss that.
