Thanks to site sponsor Dorkside Toys for sharing some official video turns of Transformers War for Cybertron Kingdom Wave 1. These are the figures we took a look at last month, but the short vids give an additional sense of how they’ll feel in hand. Read on to check them all out embedded into the post, and hit our sponsors to grab your copies!

The face isn't the greatest but it doesn't look that bad in hand. Definitely not a deal breaker for me. Kingdom Cyclonus is one of my all time favorite Transformers toys. No joke. Cyclonus is my favorite Deception. He's had a couple of decent toy treatments. One of those treatments (Classics) actually pulled me back into main line retail releases. But this new toy is almost perfect. I’ll gladly buy the inevitable dark purple release. Robot mode has 0 kibble. Transformation sequence is INSPIRED. Very intuitive and quite clever. Results in a very solid alt mode that tucks everything in wonderfully. And the jet is just BEAUTIFUL. Looks cool in a MMC poncho too.

Gotta say, I'm liking the look of Cyclonus and Warpath, and BW Megatron might tempt me as well….. yesssss…..
Shepard Prime
These look tons better.

Prime Wars had some pretty atrocious Leader figures (Seekers, Ultra Magnus, Powermaster Optimus, Megatron, Evolution Optimus and Rodimus, Soundwave, Blaster). Certainly not up to WFC par.
Cheap plastic. Foil stickers that easily peeled on later ones? So hollow you could hear the sound of the ocean if you held then close to your ear. It was laughable how far 2013-2017 Leaders had fallen compared to 2009-2011.
WFC Leaders, though shorter, are much better designed with the articulation to boot. Transformers being bricks past Cybertron/Galaxy Force is inexcusable
Most of the Combiners were passable

But they implied that they would try and model a new face to replace that one though? No-one doing a digibash suddenly thinks that their digibash is what the final product is gonna look like.
Scarlet knight
Yes.
Mattymo
digibash isn’t going to change the fact it’s not going to look like that when it’s out
Digger
Wtf, there’s a vid on the repackaged OP but not Paleotrex? Bruh.

Does anyone know why Kingdom Wave 1 Leader Optimus Prime cannot be preordered anywhere I've checked? Stores always have Leader Beast Megatron but not Prime. On BBTS, for example, for the Leader Wave 1 2-pack it says the second leader figure is a secret….. and they only have Leader Beast Megatron separately. I realize that Earthrise Prime is still available at many stores online but there are none left in my area stores so I'm trying to find a Kingdom version to avoid shipping fees. I was planning to buy the Netflix version at Walmart because I have no use for the trailer but apparently the Netflix version is only $10 cheaper than the leader (in Canada) and I don't like the deco on the Netflix version. Thank you in advance for the help!

It's just them saying that they prefer this first wave to ER and Siege though?
TheoryGuy2003
Nice
Scarlet knight
I'm fully aware of that. This is just the first wave that excites me the most.

Prime Wars was pretty damn good I don't know what you're talking about
Astrotrain52
Thats a pretty bold claim. I rather enjoyed Earthrise and Siege. Looks like Kingdom is continuing the higher standard
Just let’s please not revert to Prime Wars bad

The standard has been very good so far. The last few lines have been very good.
