Some images of a new Rusty Siege Ironhide And a Kingdom Cheetor Redeco have been surfacing over the internet.
These figures have also been rumored during the last week in our boards. We have a very dark and rusty redeco of the Siege Ironhide mold, possible inspired by the Quintesson’s drones seen in the War For Cybertron Earthrise cartoon. Then we have a toy-accurate redeco of the Kingdom Deluxe Cheetor mold. A possible Netflix War For Cybertron figure? Stay tuned with TFW2005 for an official confirmation of these new figures together with the previously reported Sparkless (Zombie/Rust Barricade) And Clear Purple Paleotrex.

Has anyone found a paint that matches the Netflix cheetor blue? Thx in advance.

I know there's also a Cyberverse Deluxe Cheetor on the way. Can't wait for our first looks at him.

They're walmart exclusives in the USA, other regions they seem to be a non exclusive release so it mostly depends on where you live

Wave 1 figures almost always end up easy to find mid-year. It makes perfect sense to wait on NF Primal and Cheetor. If you can't get the Netflix, the mainline ones should be easy to obtain.

Okay, I'm starting to get used to the lack of color on the shins and now I want Netflix Cheetor. Guess I'd better prepare my wallet. How does one go about getting on of these Netflix figures anyway? Never bothered before.
I don't think Reprolabels has ever made stickers for a beast era figure, unless you count the maximal and predacon insignias they have.

i always feels that the current kingdom cheetor\'s color looks weird….especially the baby blue parts…. now we have a better definitive color accurate cheetor…hooray

I'm not sure. I feel like that gundam paint is relatively easy to work with but I have zero experience with it.

They did get a lot right ✅, I'm just nitpicking. Honestly I'm starting to like it more than the MP I have on my shelf. The gorilla mode is amazing to me. Especially in its four legged stance.
Trevor Belmont
Yh, you keep laughing. It is more natural looking than the original. You'll see. I trust the word of those who has him in hand, than 3 bad photos and a few people who think dry grass doesn't reflect enough light. Remember the original used very shiny plastic too. It just didn't come across that much, cos the yellow is so bright

You be the judge, but from what I've seen, I think the new yellow works much MUCH better
Interesting. I love the new colour choices. I always wanted him to have more of that helmet blue. I think Kingdom looks better than the original. The angular knee pads were also a better choice than those weird circular things
Remember though, if they wanna make the hip balls red they need to distribute more of that red plastic elsewhere. How do you think they could manage that? They could make the pistons red and the upper arms. But then they'd have to apply a lot of Paint to the upper arms. There will always be compromises. When the hips are right something else will look off
My money is on a toy accurate Primal repaint with that dark furred Rattrap.
It wouldn't look as stupid as the MP of course. They'd be using deep black for the gorilla and red plastic for the all the blue parts. Which means red feet with white paint

All that metallic, reflective dead grass.

Wow new cheetor looks way better! I don’t miss the blue on the legs that much.
Towzone
No, sorry. Cheetahs are the color of dead grass. You can’t be stealthy if you have metallic sheen. I’m not supporting the original color, just don’t call this natural cheetah color.
Trip
Don't feel bad they swindled the heck out of me with prime and just like they will swindle the heck out of me with some of the beast wars guys. Cheetor like good but thankfully not irresistible. Primal though they will get me especially if he has red ball joints at the hips. That subtle difference is enough. I'm such a frigging mark.

We haven't even seen Kingdom show yet, so technically you can't say it's 'not' accurate but I think these also might be a nod to the original line. Hence the eye colors changes seemvto match 1996.

I recommend testing / training on plastic figures / objects you don't care about and using acrylic paint. It's more beginner friendly. Can be removed more easily than oil based colours (email). When the paint is dried acrylic needs to be sealed though. I use acrylic floor varnish for that purpose. My results are pretty much as robust as tampoed paint apps
One is rumoured to come with Rattrap with darker fur, fur coloured "brain" and unpainted teeth
MrSoundmeister
Now i'm curious how these Voyager Multi-packs will be handled now. I guess they have to redeco the Core class figures.
