Third party company Toyworld is showing us, via Weibo, the next installments in their World War II series: TW-FS02 Hot Break (WWII Hot Rod) And TW-FS04 Roadblock (WWII Barricade).
These figures, planned for the Studio Series scale, are inspired by the World War II Transformers seen in The Last Knight. Both molds looks highly detailed and posable for their size, and we are sure you will be more than impressed with the images. To top it all, each figure will include small parts like a sofa, table, and more items for a great diorama or display. If you were wondering, Roadblock (WWII Barricade) will include his little partner Confusion (Frenzy). While not pictured, Toyworld confirmed that TW-FS05 World War I Skyfire is coming soon.
We still have no concrete information about price or release date, but stay tuned with TFW2005 for more updates!

Nice!! Did you see any sellers selling the extra red head and the pilot?
Rewind
Nice!! What a great surprise. Also, if you ever feel like selling a pilot figure I’ve got a red baron that has nobody to fly it.

Not sure if I've seen this posted elsewhere but I just received my Red Baron and Blue Baron from a seller on AliExpress and much to my surprise my Red Baron came with an extra baggie of accessories that contained an extra big machine gun, a red Starscream head, blue Starscream head, silver Starscream head, and 4x pilot figures!

just saw a new eBay listing for it.

Here is a good pic of the paintgun mine came with. I think it is most likely a mistake and a factory worker got confused with the two Honk Kong Bees and got them switched up.
It would be interesting to see if the blue and yellow HK bee came with this paintgun.

Huh, ok….. I ask because I just ran across an eBay listing where the pic on the guys listing clearly shows the solid blue Hornet with the wrong accessories just like the one I got. This feels like a real dice roll now.
I ordered a second blue hornet from, I think, the same seller on AliExpress (maybe I should have tried a different one but there were only 2 options and they were more expensive with lower ratings) so I guess we'll see how that goes in 2 to 3 weeks.
On a side note, I did get my FS-03S2 from Amazon.jp complete with the correct accessories (for that one) BUT to my surprise in hand he sure does look more blue and green rather than blue and yellow. I'll take pics this weekend to share.
A Good Noodle
Yes mine came with everything it showed it having. I do wish mine came with the rifle you got instead of this dumb paintball gun.

So has anyone purchased a FS-03S1 (solid blue Hornet) and gotten the accessory pack that they thought they were getting…. the pack with the larger rectangular riot shield and the head with the riot gear style clear visor?

Couple pics I took of my Red Barron. You can use the flight-stand in his robot mode if you use his thighs to sqeeze the it so it holds in place.
MINDVVIPE
Ouch.
Refund or replacement time.
Or not. I would though if I can.

Just got my Red Baron, unfortunately there's a problem with the left wing, or left back in his bot mode. The pin didn't come through the right hole, so it broke the part and the wing couldn't be folded.

I had to dig it up, and turned out the pin was a bit curved.

Luckily it's now fixed, with a bit of scuff.

Love That serie of WW vehicule toyworld makes… but dammit they need to do something for both their Worst Instructions and the looseness of their joints

Looks like you got the bag that came with the blue and yellow version instead of the regular blue

I mean, if you need to offload ‘em or trade for a yellow head…
Depthcharge
Soooooooo…… I just received a Green Hornet FS03-S1 that I purchased via AliExpress and I am puzzled. These are the accessories that I received and they look like they belong to FS03-S2 instead? Is this a mistake or is this another case where the promo pictures lie about what the figure actually comes with.

@A Good Noodle see my last post… can you confirm what accessories your Blue Hornet came with?
Rewind
Will do!
Depthcharge
If you see one again please shoot your boy here a link. I've been searching it daily but no luck.
Ashpolt
Yeah, I have the two you mentioned. Someone a page back mentioned getting a red head though, so not sure if they meant the Bliztwing one (it's red on the sides?) or if they got a preorder bonus or what.
Depthcharge
The Baron bots should come with 1x movie Starscream style head (black) and 1x movie Blitzwing style head. Did yours come with both of those?
The third head that many have referenced was a movie Starscream style head that was colored to match the bot (blue/red/black) and while it was shown in promo pictures along with a tiny pilot figure, these didn't actually come with the final figures.
Ashpolt
I got my Red Baron in today, and unfortunately he has a missing crotch plate! Also no alternative red head, just the "Blitzwing" one, but there's nowhere in the packaging for another head to go so I'm guessing that's standard? Also as many have already noted, the joints in his legs could do with being a bit tighter – he'll stand, but it's a little precarious.
Haven't even tried swapping out the head yet, given the horror stories above! I probably will try and get the Blitzwing one on there at some point though….somehow.
[EDIT] 2 minutes after posting, I went to pose him looking up, and the whole head came off by mistake, with no breakage
That said, decided I actually prefer the default one (with flight mask), the Blitzwing one looks too small on the body.
