Thanks to Toys are Russ YouTube channel we can share for your a nice interview with Hasbro designers Mark Maher and Evan Brooks.

This is a fun interview where Mark and Evan discuss childhood memories of this beloved brand, figure designs whether Rumble is Red or Blue, what happened to retractable fists and much more. The interview is almost one hour long but we are sure it’s worth watching.

Watch the video after the break and then let us know your impressions on the 2005 Boards!

Courtesy of vicegripx on Instagram, we now have an in-hand gallery of the upcoming and much-anticipated Legacy Evolution Deluxe Animated Prowl!

First seen a few weeks ago, it appears Hasbro did indeed listen to feedback on the initial Legacy TFP figures (as they mentioned in our SDCC Q&A) as Prowl retains more of his trademark features despite being G1ified – between this and Leader Skyquake it seems we can expect the updates to be more faithful going forward. Prowl is shown off here in his robot and vehicle modes along with his accessories and some poses.

Check it out after the jump and let us know your thoughts on the boards!

Hasbro Transformers designer Mark Maher has once again taken to his Instagram account for another behind the scenes post. This time he’s revealing for us some secrets and hidden details of the Transformers Legacy: Evolution Deluxe Scraphook.

I hope everyone had a stellar holiday break! We are jumping back in on some more behind the scenes for the newest junkion cadet, the bruiser, SCRAPHOOK!!!

The idea that just kept coming up when we were going to kick off the new year in Generations, was combining the fantastic success of the weaponizer build program that started in WFC and merging it with the junkion ability that was showcased in the 86 animated movie. No 🧠brainer right!!

The ability to be able to fuse together not only robot peices but extend that cool capability to the vehicle modes is certainly an amazing Evolution- Fusion ahem…An Evo-Fusion thats worthy of being the special feature for this amazing Generations toyline! The team discussed so many possibilities and ideas before reaching out to the magnificent @marcelomatere and the dynamic @artguy101 for some sweet concepts of our new junkion characters.

After many conversations with our team and our amazing partners at Takara Tomy we got approvals from our leadership team and we were off and running! Special shout out goes to Ejima san for figuring out how we can transform these guys without partsforming them, that was a huge ask from me and I think it really set these guys apart from the other weaponizers, fossilizers, etc.

Check out some of the images that were used to get this idea off the ground and into the hands of our great fans! The capabilities here for customizing and building are endless! So much fun to be had, and so many beatdowns to decepticreeps with this new junkion cadet whose elbow hook drop and his junkpile driver move is unstoppable.

But the question really is, how did this guy lose an eye!?!?

I cant wait for all of you to see the rest of the crew and for all of you to get this guy in hand for a play session. Also, make sure you notice all of the asymmetrical parts on this guy, somthing that doesn’t happen very often in TF and there are some definite cool sculpt details added to go along with this rusted, spiked, post apocalyptic style. The junk is alive!!!! Muhhhahahahhahah!

We have another new reveal for the Authentics line. Following the Authentics “Bravo” Optimus Primal toy, now we have our first in-package look at the a new Transformers Authentics “Alpha” Starscream thanks to 2005 Boards member Zodiac1968340.

This figure comes packaged in a box and looks pretty similar to the Authentics Titan Changer Starscream bnt this mold features several differences like the null rays, legs and deco plus it’s made for the 7-inch Alpha scale.

Continuing our recent string of Transformers figure leaks is a new one coming to us this morning from Daimchoc, this time of the upcoming Legacy Evolution Deluxe Crosscut!

Check it out after the break!

Coming to us via Chefatron on YouTube we can share for you a new set of in-hand images of the Transformers Legacy Core Class Thundercracker.

Following our first images of this new redeco of the original Kingdom Core Starscream, now we have a nice set of new images showing Thundercracker next to the Core Starscream and Skywarp (this one with custom null ray cannons) in both modes and comparison shots next to other Core class toys. We still haven’t got an official confirmation of this figure but keep in mind that we had previously reported a Lecacy Core Thundercracker listing for 2023.

See all the images after the break, as well as Chefatron video review, and then join to the ongoing discussion on the 2005 Boards!
