Thanks to Ryan Speaks Geek YouTube channel, we can share for you the Hasbro Transformers Panel at London Comic Con 2022.
This 7-minute video features all the Transformers reveals of the event which were commented mainly by Hasbro brand marketer Ben MacCrae who gave us some interesting details about these new upcoming figures, including HasLab Deathsaurus:
- Holiday Optimus Prime was inspired by the Christmas Star Wars products.
- Holiday Prime development started while back when Lenny Panzica was still working in the Transformers team (now he’s working in the G.I Joe team), Lenny worked in the sculpt originally and it was finished by Mark Maher.
- Mark took inspiration from that Marvel UK Optimus Prime Holiday comic, so the colors match Santa Claus classic colors, even with a green Matrix.
- Generations Selects Magnificus was designed by Evan Brooks. It will be the first Generations Selects item for release in 2023.
- HasLab Deathsaurus was originally planned to be released in the main Legacy line.
- Deathsaurus was later “upgraded” as a HasLab to get the right character’s size and sculpt to scale with Victory Saber.
- Deathsaurus was designed by Hisashi Yuuki at Takara Tomy who also worked on HasLab Victory Saber and Masterpiece Star Saber.
- Deathsaurus painted model should be shipping to Hasbro next week.
- Deathsaurus block model on display at London Comic Con is not as detailed as the final product or even the reveal images.
Watch the video after the jump and then let us know your impressions on the 2005 Boards!

Transformers Generations Deathsaurus (bigbadtoystore.com) $275 usd In stock, limit 2, I honestly think price isn't bad for those that want it. Shipping and customer service are wonderful. I don't remember seeing them ever get Star Saber. I wasn't able to get Unicron during his initial window but did get him later thanks to BBTS.

Some quick shots of Deathsaurus being ridden.
Enjoy.

Kinda late to unbox. After playing with it, I'm really happy with it and the satisfaction level is way above what I could get from Haslab Victory Saber. I do like the throne where you can incorporate almost 95% of the accessories behind the throne.

Is there a demand for all four HasLab Micromasters? I’m probably going to sale mine.

Pretty sure you can replicate the gun mode for the original G1 Tigerbreast. Some guy did it here.

Got the filler Upgrade kit in today, and can confidently say it isn't worth it.
The foot filler is fine, but you will otherwise never see it since it is the bottom of his foot and is folded away during transformation. The other filler parts for his elbow and forearm would have been great (and are the reason I purchased the kit) except that the color difference between them and the Deathsaurus blue is totally off and not anywhere close to what was advertised in the listings.
I alway expect some color shifting when ordering third party kits, but in this case the difference was far too much that installing them stuck out MORE than simply leaving the original parts hollow (which I opted to do in the end). They might work for anyone who is displaying the figure in less direct lighting, as once they are slight in shadow the difference is negligible (unfortunately for me the figure is well lit where I display it and so the color difference pops)
Color as they appear in the listing.

Haslab Deathsaurus stock has arrived to Juguetibici warehouses in Mexico. It seems Mexican fans won't have to wait as much as they had to wait for Victory Saber.

That's a good price.

Unopened Haslab Deathsaurus for sale in my thread, if anyone is interested. I think it's a decent price

Anyone still waiting for Deathsaurus (that ain't part of a PoL)?
Europe, all good?

I would like to see some filler panels for the tail/shield.

I wonder if DNA will be doing any kind of Deathsaurus upgrade kit? Would love to see some added die cast feet. If I am spitballing ideas, maybe they could do some replacement chromed parts for a slightly more toy look. Maybe do a chromed out the alt modea head in silver chrome with a matching gold chromed beak like the toy, Matching gold chromed knees like the vintage toy boxart. Or a matching gold chromed head for the cat. Maybe an IDW style head like what MMC did.
Def tons of possible upgrade ideas they could toss into a set for him. I would def be down for it as I LOVE this figure!!!

So, so goooood…
