Thanks to the great detective work of our very own Nevermore, we can share for you some new stock images of the Transformers: Cyberverse Tiny Turbo Changers Series 2.
The new images surfaced via Amazon UK and Detski Mir and we finally have a look at more of the robot modes of this small figures. This wave includes several figures from Series 1 like Optimus Prime, Bumblebee, Megatron, Grimlock, Soundwave, Shockwave, Blackarachnia, and Prowl, but there are some new redecos like a Acid Storm, Silverbolt (gray Jetfire), Jazz (Drift redeco) and Sideswipe (a minor redeco of Hot Rod). This is the only one which we still don’t have an image of his robot mode.

Can't wait to get all of the new guys for Wave 2. I want tiny Silverbolt and Acid Storm the most.

D, E, F and K are the four being replaced by the new ones IIRC. Except for the limit of only having 26 letters to work with, harmonizing codes across the entire planned line (say, the Series 1 Optimus sculpt/deco combo having the same letter every wave he's in) WOULD simplify logistics for both the factory and us…

Nice, I'll have to go grab me an Acid Storm.
Black Convoy
Thanks for sharing! Only K codes is missing, right?

I made a post about finding wave 1 at a Kroger but it went unnoticed. She's available in wave 1, her letter is G
Cyberverse Tiny Turbo Changers wave 1 spotted at US retail

At Toys R Us in the 新北中和環球 (New Taipei City, Zhonghe Global Mall). NT$99ea.
…. I used the window peak method, but didn’t spot any green. Was hoping to nab an Acid Storm.
Yep, still here. Being a foreigner here is gettin’ real old …but still here.
Nevermore
Presumably in Taiwan!

Eh, considering I've never seen the first wave, a wave made up almost entirely of repacks it music to my ears.
… assuming I ever see this one.
Black Convoy
Where did you find it?
Nevermore
I'm not sure if that's exactly an "epic new low". Look at wave 2.5 of Takara's Smallest Transforming Transformers released back in 2004, which included exactly one new figure, namely Hot Rodimus, plus a new Thundercracker redeco of Starscream and an "anime" redeco of Convoy's trailer from wave 1. The rest of the wave was made up of Soundwave and Starscream from wave 1, Megatron and Meister from wave 2, and the "anime" redeco of Convoy from wave 2 (the original version of Convoy was released in wave 1).
There was another figure, Skids, and accessory parts for Megatron which were both on display at a show but ultimately never released.
Diamondback
In other words, Hasbro taking cheapass to epic new lows. Oh well, means I only need to buy four if I ever find 'em.
Nevermore
There are zero new toolings in Series 2.
Four figures are redecos of Series 1 figures:
The remaining eight figures are straight re-releases of Series 1 figures:
Diamondback
Do we have a list of how many are straight repacks vs new/redeco, also?
prime roller
I found Series 2!
…. but what are the codes !!!
Diamondback
Here in Seattle, Fred Meyer (our Kroger "local affiliate") dumped 'em for deadstock Botbots. They still have full pegs of POTP and I wouldn't be surprised to see some Combiner Wars in the mix, too…
