Just in is our first look at four upcoming Takara Transformers products: Legacy United Voyager Silverbolt, Masterpiece Rhinox, Studio Series Voyager ROTB Optimus Prime, and Studio Series Core ROTB Terrorcon Novakane.
Though the images aren’t high quality, they do give us a shot of the figures’ robot and alt modes along with their accessories. Silverbolt looks like a faithful update of his cartoon model and Rhinox is looking extremely show accurate as one would expect, while the ROTB figures seem unchanged from their Hasbro releases.
Check it out after the break and stay tuned for more details!

I had no idea my boy Silverbolt was already up for preorder.
So now I have my flying wolf to go with my flying tiger.

No need. I'm just surprised to see a KO of a BotCon toy. I have the original '96 Onyx.
Now that I think about it…I seem to remember CHMS knocking off BotCon 2010 Breakdown.

I have a bootleg of Onix Primal I bought off Amazon about 5 years back. When I get home, I can take photos if you like. He's super vad8c abd has none of the flip mechanics tge original toys had so he feels a little empty.
I used a silver pen to add details to his body and swords and a red sharpie on his eyes which were uncolored. But it was pretty cool to have an otherwise unobtainable figure. It was also oversized by a bit. I'll take a picture with my basic sized Insecticon (which was the size of original Bat Primal) for comparison. But he was very plane otherwise, just white and black plastic, no paint to speak of

How are the quality on these. I could use a Gimlet (? Red Seaclamp).
LOL. They have Burning Convoy and… Onyx Primal??

No man. He's totally the size of a core figure and his transformation even with improvements would be pretty simple. And really, the old tail was perfect. They could keep or leave the squirt gimmick. The only thing I think needs improvement is giving some (even just one balloon per leg) articulation to the Scorpion legs/robot hand. The original toy was pretty perfect for the character

Has anyone been able to order the SS-122 ROTB Optimus Prime yet?

I ordered Rhinox on the first day. I love what he comes with… but a small part of me wishes he had come with his mutant mask.

It\'s Better Than The Original

Silverbolt looks pretty good.
But holy hell, Rhinox looks incredible.
Endlord69
woah this looks good
Pun-3X
Absolutely THIS.

That makes a lot of sense and I'm now looking forward to voyager Transmetal Cheetor
maltesefalcon
looking good. i think the scale thing is that hes a season 2/3 character and there was major size increases after season 1 when we get the transmetals (hopefully) that is when we will see him matching more
Vicegrip
Silverbolt looks really good… but this one is just not grabbing me. Maybe it's because he seemingly only scales with Kingdom Blackarachnia, who herself was a bit oversized. Maybe it's because I absolutely hated his character on the show. Maybe my generally lukewarm reception of the recent Kingdom/Legacy Beast Wars figures have tempered my excitement for mainline figures.
I think I will hold off for a potential Windrazor redeco, and stick to TA for Silverbolt.

I haven’t had my original Silverbolt next to Kingdom Blackarachnia in a while, and now seeing the scale, I’m even more excited for him to come out for my Beast Wars collection
Inferno
I got it from AliExpress but it's currently out of stock. Hopefully they restock it, here's a couple of links:

Still waiting for a small Deluxe Quickstrike….

Wouldn’t worry about that. If it wasn’t broken out of the box, it won’t suddenly break on you. The breakage that was reported by a handful of people was the result of a missasembly at the factory. All of them were broken out of the box. There is no issues with the design or material.

That's kind of where I'm at with MP Rhinox… if the T30 and Kingdom (?) version didn't exist… I'd be hopping for joy… but those are much fun-er to play with… and I don't have to worry about snapping a triple digit figure. (Reminds me I should check BWMP Megatron's crotch and see how it's doing).
