Third party company Dr. Wu have shared images of the gray prototype of their DW-E03 Big Surge (G1 Beachcomber) via their Weibo account.

According to the Dr, Wu Weibo post this figure stands only 4.5 cm tall in robot mode so it is even smaller than regular Legends class modern figures and it goes really well with Titan Class figures, or even with the new War For Cybertron Modulators. A very nice cartoon-accurate robot mode which is fairly posable for its tiny size. This figure is the third addition to Dr Wu’s Extreme Warfare line together with  DW-E01 Destroy Emperpo (G1 Galvatron), DW-E02 Monitor Officer (G1 Soundblaster). Additionally, Dr Wu have teased DW-E04 Prime Commander (G1 Optimus Prime) alt mode.
