Courtesy of our very own TFW2005 Board mod Dachande we can share for your our first in-hand images of the new Transformers Generations Selects G2 Sandstorm.

This figure is a nice redeco of the Earthrise Ramjet mold based on an unreleased G2 seeker mold . This figure was officially revealed while back in August together with Generations Selects G2 Megatron. Sandstorm deco makes him unique and different for any display and this is our very first official figure of this obscure unreleased toy.

Update: More pics added. Comparison shots next to Earthrise Ramjet.

The final chapter of the War for Cybertron Trilogy is here – KINGDOM!  Generations will be mixing it up next year with a multi generational cross over featuring both G1 and Beast Wars characters in one line (and who knows, maybe more).  Today we have an in hand look at the entire wave 1 line up!  Hasbro was kind enough to send through a care package a bit early for us to check out.  We had to wait to open until yesterday afternoon, so I shot non stop over night and banged out over 200 shots to show what they can do.  Included inside are pics for:

  • Core – Rattrap
  • Core – Optimus Prime
  • Core – Vertebreak
  • Deluxe – Blackarachnia
  • Deluxe – Cheetor
  • Deluxe – Warpath
  • Deluxe – Paleotrex
  • Voyager – Optimus Primal
  • Voyager – Cyclonus
  • Leader – Beast Wars Megatron
  • Leader – Optimus Prime (Earthrise Repack)

Instead of breaking these up into individual galleries, everything is just attached to this story in one pop this time.  Due to time constraints, there aren’t any fancy pants shots and these may need a bit more refinement. We’ll go back in later on and update when it’s all done.

Read on to check out all the pics and some quick thoughts on each figure.  Feel free to discuss on the 2005 Boards!

Update 11/21/20 – we’ve added adjusted shots of Cyclonus and some additional comparisons shots.  They are all at the end of the additional images list.

The official Takara Tomy Transformers Twitter have uploaded images of a production sample of the upcoming Transformers Studio Series 86 Kup. 

The Studio Series line is now offering us modern representations of the classic G1 Transformers The Movie characters from 1986. Kup is a new movie-accurate Deluxe mold of the old-timer Autobot and, as we can see from the images, it scale very well next to Studio Series 86 Voyager Hot Rod. SS-61 Kup will be released for the Japanese market in April, 2021. It’s good to notice that Takara Tomy is using a different Studio Series numeration compared to Hasbro.
