Transformers Studio Series Wave 7 Deluxe Out at U.S. Retail

I really want to see how is SS ROTB leader class optimus primal

He for sure is my most anticipated figure for the rest of the year. I hope he's big!

Ok thank you. I may just stick to SS for now, debating whether I should get these or mainline after. What do you all think?

For me. I usually don't buy non-transforming transformers. yolopark rotb optimus prime looks good. I like the Articulation , very detail and The price is good too.
So I will get the BB SS rotb optimus prime and yolopark optimus prime.

Here's a good shot that shows the robot mode scale amongst the Autobots and Maximals. I think Studio Series may be able to get pretty close

Any idea when we could see the Battlemaster Airazor in stores? I feel like it should be soon.

Also, on the mainline topic, since the movie is about to release, will the mainline deluxes and voyagers ever see an online release. I'd hate to have to go to Ebay. It doesn’t sound bad until you look at the prices for some of them like Prime and Primal…

At least for Bee and Prime, close to scale yes

They teased Rhinox, and hopefully there is more to come.

Apparently they had a surge in orders on their site for the kits so hopefully it shows that there is demand for the line and they have more planned beyond just Rhinox.

Bee is wayyy too big real-life scale wise right (or prime is too small)? No way a truck and a camaro are that similar in size, or am I tripping

I won't lie while it may be for the best that they didn't bring that type of line back I would've liked to have seen Hasbro do a subline of doing CHUG repaints/retools out of the WFC and Legacy molds to do as the ROTB cast. Got an idea of what molds they can use.

Autobots:

Optimus Prime – Repaint of the ER Optimus Prime mold in movie colors
Bumblebee – Repaint of the ER Datsun mold with new head
Arcee – Repaint of Legacy Prime Arcee with new head
Mirage – Repaint of SS86 Jazz with new head
Wheeljack – Repaint of SS86 Ironhide/Ratchet with new head

Maximals

Optimus Primal – Movie repaint of the Kingdom Optimus Primal figure with new robot chest and Nemesis Primal head
Cheetor – Movie repaint of Kingdom Cheetor with new head
Airazor – Movie repaint of Kingdom Airazor
Rhinox – Movie repaint of Kingdom Rhinox

Terrorcons

Scourge – Repaint of Legacy G2 Laser Optimus with new head and chest
Nightbird – Repaint of Legacy Shadowstriker with new head
Battletrap – Repaint of ER Hoist or Legacy Trashmaster with new head
Freezer – Repaint of Kingdom Fracas

Predacon:

Scorponok – 3 pack of Movie repaints of Kingdom Scorponok

I feel Tigatron would work better for Cheetor given how tall he is in the movie but I love these ideas. Would especially buy Mirage, Wheeljack, and Battletrap.

Here's hoping man. ROTB Arcee is the best Arcee design we've ever got by a looooooong shot.

It's up there and if not them my hope would be I guess that maybe Trumpeter does a ROTB Arcee and that might be close in height to the Core figure. But hopefully even outside that 3P, Yolopark or 3Zero does a good version of that design. Really love it, and even if I don’t get them, I’d like to see good, high quality versions of that design done.

Ya exactly lol, also SS is not the most accurate scale-wise anyway. One thing that I could see being a challenge with the Legarcee mold though is replicating the G1 arcee shoulder rectangle thingy-s she has in ROTB too. Otherwise you're basically golden.

My hopes maybe down the line SS can redo her as a small Deluxe (Deluxe for engineering) and also a bit more accurate to the film. And I'd also definitely take the Legacy Arcee as a G1-ified ROTB Arcee for me shelf.
