Via Chefatron on YouTube, we have our possible first look at the new Transformers: Rise Of The Beasts Optimus Prime And Optimus Primal (& Tigatron) figures.
These seem to be part of the small and simple scale toys aimed to younger fans. We have a look at Optimus Prime who looks pretty similar to what we saw in the Bumblebee Movie but with a different alt mode. He also features a flip-out sword gimmick. Optimus Primal looks inspired to his Beast Wars cartoon design. To top it all we have images of a small Tigatron toy which transform into a bow for Primal. Keep in mind that these figures may be based in early concept art designs and they may not be an indication of the final design for the movie.
Check all the images after the break, as well as Chefatron video review, and then let us know your impressions on the 2005 Board!

Primal looks fricking amazing

I think Primal is unpainted but Tigatron is painted correctly so I don't know.

That and they also most of the time overprice they’re products.

Beware Collection Toys
They put up pre-orders for items they do not have, and often times they will make listings that are not real.

This is just them taking the revealed images and making their own listing. It doesn’t mean anything,

Hopefully this means the other gimmick toys might go up for PO or get revealed soonish.

Transformers Cyberverse Adventures Dinobots Unite Optimus Prime – Smash Changer
TRANSFORMERS CYBERVERSE ADVENTURES DINOBOTS UNITE OPTIMUS PRIME – SMASH CHANGER PRE-ORDER
Regular price $44.99
The first revealed Rise of the Bests toy, but it's going to be put into Cyberverse! This is a gimmick toy and part of the Smash Changers toyline meaning it has some automorph features that limit its poseability.
Take a look at your new Optimus Prime and ask yourself: Where is your God now?
Comes new in sealed box!

We've had that since 2007

You mean to tell me we almost had an F22 Seeker mold at the Voyager pricepoint?

Sometimes I really wished Gary Chalk could come back and voice Big Bot for the movie…
The toy looks great, but I really hope the movie doesn\'t just give him plain silver and gray

I do believe Bulkhead was not a retool, but rather a pretool for a new Prime figure, and I do believe it was that Shine figure if memory serves me right. I know BH Prime was being floated around a while back, but I don’t know where those rumors went, or if they were disproven.
Purple Heart
I’ve never heard that Bulkhead is a retool of the Shine/Rise Optimus, but every since I got Bulkhead the other day, I’ve thought about how much Prime energy that mold has. It feels very much like an Optimus, and I was hoping to see it retooled into a Legacy BH Optimus. It would be a shame if Bulkhead was in fact a pre-tool and the Optimus never comes out.
TF Hot Rod
Great job, hopefully the actual design has more color in robot mode.
I think it more so has to do with that's how the concept art for the design looked. Cause most of these concept art movie toys have less detailed faces than what they have in the final design.
RotB Enthusiast
I start to feel the Primal head might be Hasbro's thing and not the actual design head for robot mode, looks too cartoonish.

Tried to recreate it from the toy pic.

Along with the Soundwave figure was a van and Bumblebee was a Off-Road vehicle (just like he is for ROTB).
Rhinox555
No. We just know that (according to leakers) Armada Starscream is supposed to be a retool of some new F-22 Starscream design for that video game, while Bulkhead similiarly is a retool of the Optimus Prime it was supposed to release with. I’m convinced the conspicuously Bulkhead-like Optimus in the Rise of the Beasts line is a holdover from that.
Lazlow007
Wut? Is there a pic of that? I mean the figure.
TF Hot Rod
I hope somehow that figure comes out cause I'd love to own an F-22 looking G1 Starscream.
Nova Maximus
Oh yeah that game is cancelled.
The rise Starscream is what Armada Starscream is being retooled from, but now that it won't come out we're only getting the retool instead of also the original mold.
