Thanks to a user on 4chan and board member Autobot Burnout, we have our first look at the highly-anticipated Studio Series 86 Leader Class Slag! There’s only two images right now, but we have a full look at both his dino and robot modes as well as a glimpse at the exo-suit Daniel figure he comes with! In addition to all this, his robot mode picture features him alongside Grimlock, Hot Rod, Earthrise Optimus, and Kingdom Huffer so we get a good idea of just how big this hunk of beryllium bologna really is.

Update: Thanks to board member Seth Sunthay, we have additional images!

Check out the pics after the jump and be sure to share your thoughts in the discussion below!

“Where’d that come from?”

“Who cares? I’m more worried about where it’s goin’!”

The time is nigh, Transformers fans! The long-awaited Haslab Unicron has begun making his way from Hasbro warehouses to collectors’ houses! Many who ordered the largest Transformers figure ever made have been receiving shipping notices over the last few days notifying them the chaos bringer is on his way. However, not everyone has received a notice yet so things seem to be rolling out in waves so sit tight! As for those who ordered Unicron through an alternate retailer (like this newsie did) the wait continues for now, but this could be a sign said wait will not be much longer.

When your Unicron arrives, be sure to share your pictures, thoughts, and excitement over in our Haslab Unicron Appreciation Thread!

On the heels of yesterday’s Netflix War for Cybertron reveals of Optimus Primal with Rattrap and the Sparkless Seeker, thanks to Autobase Aichi on Twitter, we now have a glimpse at the next wave of deluxes from the line in their new packaging which follows Kingdom in suit with the cardboard inserts rather than the plastic ones. In addition, we also have the big reveal of Netflix Deep Cover! However, this Deep Cover has a new look to him with his blue and black reversed, battle damage added, and police badge decals removed. The wave also consists of Cheetor, who sports a bit more of a toon-accurate paint job, the Quintesson drone from the Siege Ironhide mold, and the Sparkless Bot from the Siege Smokescreen/Barricade mold.

No release info on these guys yet, but check out the pics in the meantime and share your thoughts in the discussion below!

The Generations news continues as Hasbro have officially revealed the next Generations Selects figure, Voyager G2 Ramjet! A repaint of the Earthrise Conehead mold, G2 Ramjet is an update many fans of past exclusive figures and those of figures with wacky color schemes have been looking forward to and he is now available for pre-order on Hasbro Pulse and our sponsor sites.

Ramjet runs for the usual $29.99 and is slated for release in August of this year.

Rumors surrounding the upcoming Commander Class announcement have been heavy as of late, but a few days ago we got a couple glimpses at this year’s $80 price-point figure. Now, thanks to the Figusoku Twitter page, we officially have our first full look at Commander Class Rodimus Prime with images from Amazon Japan! With these pics we get a nice, clear look at his robot mode, some of his weapons, his vehicle mode, and his trailer’s base mode inspired by the original G1 toy! He also appears to have individually articulated index fingers for maximum pointing action!

In addition to Rodimus, we also have pics of Takara’s Studio Series Revenge of the Fallen Bumblebee and the Top Gun crossover figure, Maverick.

The Amazon Japan listing has a release date of August 1st 2021, but release info from Hasbro has yet to surface and likely will in their own reveals soon enough. In the meantime, check out the pics after the jump and be sure to share your thoughts and excitement in the discussion below!

Flame Toys have updated their Twitter with yet another product update, this time with a full color image of their Furai Action Leo Prime figure! We’ve seen prototypes of a Furai Model version of this character in the past, but it seems as though for now we’ll be getting just an Action version. The figure comes with a large energy sword with sheath and a cloth cape. It also seems to come with a large, detachable lion head shield with cannons on the underside, but that functionality remains to be seen.

Pricing and other release info are yet to be revealed so stay tuned, and be sure to check out the pic after the jump!

Via the Transformers Instagram page and IGN, we finally have full, official looks at Kingdom leader Ultra Magnus, voyager Dinobot, and deluxe Airazor! Ultra Magnus looks to be a heavily remolded use of the Siege figure but made to look more G1 for those who weren’t big on the previous release that had nods to OG RID Magnus. As for Dinobot and Airazor, Beast Wars fans can finally rejoice as these two are shaping up to be fantastic releases of these two fan-favorites!

Update: Extra HQ images showing off poseability and packaging added via IGN.

Update 2: Additional HD images courtesy of Hasbro.

Check out all the pics after the jump and stay tuned for when pre-orders go live on Thursday this week at 1pm EST!
