We have a new update in our Transformers Target listings that have been discovered throughout the last days. This time we have quite a special character
- Transformers Prime Knock Out ($22.99)
Images of the actual figure are yet to be revealed, but we can share Knock Out’s DCPI number 087165687 for those interested in tracking this item. Feel free to share your impressions on the boards. Hopefully we’ll be getting an official reveal for soon.

I'd like a few OG characters with a unifying theme instead of more izers.
A group of characters with nautical alt modes or period alt modes.
Altough by now we have enough established characters with those kind of alt modes so we don't need new characters to fill those ranks. Or not many at least.

It’s just me but I would find it amusing if there were new toys of these in the modern aesthetic and in no way Playskool but would still be recognisable as being the same characters.View attachment 30357869

Yeah, I think this would go hard af.
TF Hot Rod
That’s why I’d do it yeah BC can be a Leader which he fits best and the buster can be a Deluxe with a big size maintained.
Rakzo
I wouldn't mind seeing that although it would kinda break the Beast Wars Neo theme of just organic beasts.
That being said, that would allow to Big Convoy to be released at Leader Class at his best. I have been thinking a lot about him after the reviews of Legacy Magmatron and I think they can perfectly depict him at Leader Class budget since the original Big Convoy toy is even shorter than Kingdom BW Megatron and both share the same shellformer-y nature so an update of him around the same size should be perfect.

I’d be down to seeing the Matrix Buster as a future Weaponizer like Bluebolt was
BethCyra
I mean…that is cool and I forget he has it.
Wish we could see it more.
SecretWyvern
I honestly prefer his already established spider tank/cannon alt mode. It's super unique for a Autobot/Maximal and feels fitting for the character
This custom using the first TFP Ultra Magnus is also pretty cool though.
BethCyra
I would love for this to be like Big Convoy’s non Beast Mode.

The rock guys are indeed awesome and I'd totally be down with seeing more of them.

I personally feel that the 'izers' should be just partsforming. So that we don't have huge chunks left over ala most Junkions and infernacs.
SecretWyvern
Here's an idea, let's just steal the Diaclone Reboot concept. Make a new show with a toyline where we have all the iconic transformers characters and new ones that get created for it, but they're all weaponizers.
Like you can't tell me an Optimus based on Battle Convoy, or any of the major characters in this style, wouldn't fuck
Rakzo
I really like the Legacy Rock toys. Magneus and Shard feel extremely solid (maybe they considered that as part of the theme), much more solid than the Junkions actually, is basically the culmination of the premise of "Weaponizers without partsforming".
However, is fair to say that they're basically Transformers first and Weaponizers second, they don't turn into the most convincing looking weapons and their torsos do nothing in that configuration. I would say that the best examples of Weaponizers would be the original Siege figures and the Fossilizers, partsforming is sadly an important part of such design so I wouldn't mind if they go back to it to create more appropriate Weaponizers.
Vector Oracle
Wait, he has a club? Nice to hear that Hasbro is going full Flintstones with this since the vehicle mode looks like Fred’s car.
SaberZ
All of the main leaker guys have mentioned that he's a white Magneous, but they reculpted everything about him. Recent info has also mentioned that he has a new head, and comes with a club instead of the axe.
Vector Oracle
The next Armorizer, Nucleous, is rumored to be a white redeco/retool of Magneous.
Ragnarok Flames
I'll take more gimmick izers over people bitching about minor retools or "it's not the character" any day.
Gallade
Wait, is there something I missed reading?
TF Hot Rod
We seem to be with how Primes is going
nune
That'd make a lot of sense. I've discussed this a lot before: Having a Core class lineup of the tiny Devisians from IDW that can all combine with another into one vehicle mode (sold in two packs) could be a really cool gimmick that's not izers.
