Courtesy of 2005 Boards member Hisbrawlers we can share for your our first look at a new Transformers: Rise Of The Beasts Mainline Beast Battle Master Airazor figure.
The toy was found at Siam Paragon, Thailand and, like other previous Beast Battle Masters toys, it’s a beast which transforms into a weapon. Airazor transforms into a bow/gun for other figures with 5 mm ports.
Update: Additional images thanks to Hisbrawlers
See the first in-package image after the jump and then share your impressions on the 2005 Boards!

That's what I'd like to know… haven’t even seen an ebay listing for her. I'm starting to think she's going to show up at discount stores if/when they get the overstock of the rest of the battle masters.

Do we have any info on this yet stateside?

If anyone can find the ASIN for it on western sites do let us know!
While we're here Amazon Japan also have many of the rest of the toys from late in the line:
BD-06 Deluxe Class Mirage https://www.amazon.co.jp/-/en/dp/B0CGR19J9B
BV-03 Voyager Class Rhinox https://www.amazon.co.jp/-/en/dp/B0CGQX7JKY
BCS-04 Awakening Change Set Arcee & Cheetah https://www.amazon.co.jp/-/en/dp/B0CGQZKB2G

BCS-04's western equivalent is on Amazon – https://www.amazon.com/Transformers-TRA-MV7-WEAPONIZER-ARCEE/dp/B09H1F7ZBD/ – not sure about the others

I hope Airazor comes out in the US, as well as Lions blade Prime. I think I have one of each mold of the beast battlemasters so far. It's worth getting Scorponok and Sandspear, both are good.
(Does this count as inappropriate? Is to more suggestive than G1 Megatron or G1 Fort Max?)

Do you have the link? Can't find it
payres
Certainly not in the UK and I don't think the US has had many (any?) either. I needed the review thread the other day and it was several pages back and that's a good indicator nobody has found any
Rise of the Beast Battlemaster Airazor
However it's now up on Amazon Japan if anyone can't wait or believes she'll be hard to find where they are

Have these hit the shelves at mass retail yet?

I love that it took like 2 months to confirm the second mode with images

I'd love to know if both alt modes are shown in the directions….

They all fit anywhere you like:

I have managed to mount rhinox to the back and forearms of bots as well, beyond the fists you claim, but he's such an imposing getting gun… that he NEEDS to be hand-held.
Neko-bot77
Arrowstripe may have limited articulation, but he doesn't have kibble sitting below the 5mm peg in weapon mode. Easily mounts pretty much anywhere on any size figure.

Brah… everyone knows that weaponizer arrowstripe is the weakest.
Rhinox just needs to fold his knees in better.
Neko-bot77
A little superglue fixes the gun barrel issue. Not sure why Hasbro didn't glue that in the first place.
I'd argue Rhinox is the weakest of the group, as the rhino feet limit usability on larger toys / non-hand mounting locations.
Cheetor on the other hand makes an awesome arm-mounted blade. I picked up 2 for Legacy Leo Prime. Much more imposing than the standard claws!

I ended up getting Skullcruncher specifically because he functionally IS Gatoraider and I needed one for a custom Krok figure I'm planning.
I got Rhinox because of the gatling-butt alt mode being so hilariously ridiculous.
And if the joke ever gets old and wears out, I can probably salvage the gun barrels for use in a custom figure later down the line.

Can you combine 2 of these together? To make a crossbow/shield looking double barrel weapon?

The creativity knows no bounds(sarcasm).

Personally:
1. Optimus Gun, good in both modes
2. Skullcruncher, good in both modes but kinda iffy that his handle sticks out in beast mode
3. Chainclaw, good in wolf mode, mediocre to good in chainclaw mode
4. Cheetah, good in beast mode, claw mode is good but a little awkward at angle
5. Rhino, good in beast mode and gun mode, sadly still haven't got him yet
6. Scorponok, good in beast mode, spear mode needs more spear and less scorpion
7. Tiger, good in beast mode, bow mode makes you feel sorry for little fella. Won't buy unless on discount.
