Transformers news for Transformers Generations and Transformers Classics toys.

under Generations / Classics, Transformers Movie Toys & Products

We have a bit of interesting rumor to share with you. Weibo users JakeToys and MEGA-Decepticon have reported that the official Hasbro China’s Taobao store had put up new pre-orders listings for new Masterpiece movie and Earthrise figures for 2020.

The listings were taken down after some minutes, but both Weibo users claim the got the respective screencaps as proof. Some of the characters were expected, but others are really nice surprises. Read on for the complete list:

  • Masterpiece Movie Starscream (Transformers 2007)
  • Masterpiece Movie Ratchet (Transformers 2007)
  • Earthrise Titan Scorponok
  • Earthrise COMMANDER CLASS SKY LYNX
  • Earthrise Voyager Quintesson
  • Earthrise Deluxe “Quintessa”
  • Earthrise Deluxe Runamuck

Considering the actual line up of the Masterpiece movie series, Starscream and Ratchet sound like a logical choice. On the Earthrise side, Scorpornok and Runamuck were already expected for release, but the big surprise here is a Commander Class Sky Lynx. If it comes to be true, this new size would satisfy the scale necessities of many collectors who were waiting for a bigger official release after the Combiner Wars Voyager Sky Linx toy.

A Voyager Quintesson would be our first official toy of the evil aliens (unless you consider Energon Alpha-Q). Quintessa is a total mystery since the first and only incarnation of this character comes from The Last Knight, and the placeholder images only show a planet.

Remember to take this with a grain of salt until we get a proper official confirmation. We still have no images of any of these toys, since the listings only have placeholder images.

Time to speculate ¿Excited for these new figures? ¿What are your expectations? ¿Guilty or innocent? Let us know your impressions on the 2005 Boards!

Via hobby.dengeki.com we can share for you a nice set of stock images of the Takara Tomy release of Earthrise Hoist, Optimus Prime, Grapple & Sound Barrier.

We have some nice shots of the upcoming Earthrise figures for the Japanese market in April 2020:

  • ER-01 Hoist
  • ER-02 Optimus Prime with trailer
  • ER EX-01 Sound Barrier – Takara Tomy Mall Exclusive
  • ER EX-02 Grapple – Takara Tomy Mall Exclusive

It’s kind of strange Takara Tomy’s decision to make Grapple a limited item considering he is a key character. Grapple will have a regular wide release in the US market.

On interesting and maybe confusing detail is the fact that the images of Optimus Prime show him with yellow eyes and gray hands like the prototype seen at New York Comic Con. A clear difference compared to the blue hands and eyes seen in our first in-hand images of the toy.

Via SMARTISAN NUT on Twitter we can share for your our first in-hand images of the highly expected War For Cybertron Siege: Earthrise Leader Class Optimus Prime.

We are sure your optics will be really pleased with these images. Earthrise Optimus Prime shines in all his G1 glory. We can spot some differences compared to the prototype shown before: blue hands instead of gray and blue eyes instead of yellow. Optimus also shows a collapsible gun that can be storaged on his back. One interesting detail we can spot is that the truck’s cylinders are hidden on his thighs. The truck mode with the gray trailer looks big (almost as long as Leader Class Studio Series DOTM Optimus Prime) and great for display. A really great mold for the iconic Autobot Leader which will be available at retail for a fair price.
