In the beginning of the month, we had a report on some details for figures in the Transformers: Reactivate toyline. However, it was up in the air when or if they would actually be released.
Fortunately, thanks to some further detective work of TFW’s Jtprime17, we may now have our answer: Not only does it seem they will indeed be coming, but their estimated release date is for October 1st of this year.
In addition to the Optimus Prime/Soundwave pack, we now also have info for a Starscream/Bumblebee pack as well:
“Tra Shine 1 Voy Optimus Prime & Dlx Soundwave
Product Number: F0384
EAN: 5010994148447
Estimated Release Date: October 1st, 2023
3 Per case
Tra Shine 2 Voy Starscream & Dlx Bumblebee
Product Number: F0383
EAN: 5010994148591
Estimated Release October 1st, 2023
3 Per Case”
We recommend taking this as a rumor until we receive official confirmation, but for now you can let us know what you’re hoping to see out of this line on the boards!

I've always loved the idea of a transformers shooting game. It's just amazing that you can play normally and then turn into a vehicle to zoom around the map.
Peaceful Soldier
They are 'transformers', it's not only going to be one mode my friend. Grimlock in the game will most likely have the largest hitbox in alt mode (t-rex) but you will only be able to play with no limitations in robot mode.
TF Hot Rod
If he’s in it he’ll definitely be a T-Rex.
Illiterate Scholar
Whatever they do, I hope Grimlock is in the game and he's a T. rex.
TF Hot Rod
I can.

Bumblebee looks so damn awful in this game. Skinny legs fat feet skinny arms fat forarms and hands. Prime doesn't even look like he Transformers into the truck they showed. I can't see the toys being too great.

These are the leaked designs: Possible Transformers Reactivate Optimus Prime, Megatron & Bumblebee Design Images & Cutscenes From The Game
and here are the cutscenes:
kubi
so
So what's megatron’s concept looks like? A evergreen style design?
TF Hot Rod
Yeah I doubt they won't do him and if not I'm getting Prime and Starscream so I'll live.
Peaceful Soldier
These figures should be some of the best stuff we've seen in years. At least, that's how high my hopes are right now.

That Soundwave looks similar but with lesser greeble and he doesn't have the WFC/FOC thing on his chest.
Nem
For the record, the cutscenes are dated to late 2019, probably 2020 (We know who wrote them, he joined Certain Affinity near the end of 2019). So we know that the Soundwave design for the toy is probably gonna be the one in the cutscene not the one in the gallery image.

These are apparently old screenshots of the game back during development stages.

These are from 2018, so the designs have most likely been changed.
The Starscream in the first pic kind of reminiscent of Legacy Armada Starscream when you look at the backpack but that's all the "similarities" there is.

Did it look closer to an F-22 than Energon deluxe F-22? I hated how small and close together the vertical stabilizers were on the Energon Starscream toy. I think I’d be happy if it looked closer to Studio Series voyager movie Starscream’s F-22 mode than deluxe Energon Starscream’s jet mode.
Also, did it look “close enough” to be a modern or futuristic version of G1 Starscream, especially in robot mode?
Nem
The bottom line is, did they look good?
TF Hot Rod
They’re standing farther way and size can change but here’s how it was in the cutscene.

Soundwave does look smaller.
Peaceful Soldier
We have absolutely no clue about the scaling of the characters in-game aside from the trailer. Any cutscenes shown should provide a decent idea of the scaling. I think Soundwave will be a large deluxe based on that leaked cutscene
RodimusRex
Isn't he smaller in the actual game, though?
TF Hot Rod
Maybe but still don’t think that would 100% work. Either way idc as much since all I want from that set is Starscream.
Midas
They could just decide to pack it all on his back and call it a day.
