Over the course of the last week, we’ve received a couple of tidbits on the 2005 Boards about upcoming Transformers Generations – War For Cybertron:Siege potential products. Before we  get into the lists, let us provide the caveat that today one of these rumors turned out to be true. Second, the information comes from reliable members of the boards whose information has been true in the past.

  • Cybertron Defense Hot Shot – repaint of Hound with new headsculpt. First seen and rumored back in July of last year on Siege Hound’s box.
  • Refraktor Three pack – A three pack of Refraktor in Generation one toy colors. Special packaging that will resemble a digital camera box.
  • “Hasbro Pulse” Nightbird – Repaint of Chromia with new headsculpt. The listing as “Hasbro Pulse” may indicate this as a Generations Selects figure.
  • Deluxe Powerdasher – Repaint of Brunt with new headsculpt.
  • Deluxe Decepticon Impactor – Different paint deco from the Wave 4 release of the figure
  • Micromaster 10-pack
  • Leader Shockwave in Galactic Man deco, black Shockwave aka “Shackwave”. Revealed today.

Next up on our list of rumors are a couple of tidbits from Catz. According to him, SDCC will reveal to us the following:

  • the name of the next line of figures in the Generations War For Cybertron line.
  • New Titan Class figure revealed.
  • New Commander Class reveal
  • New Leader Class reveal. This is hinted to be a car or armored car.

While the recent reveal of the Masterpiece MP-19+ Masterpiece Smokescreen (Anime Colors) announced this figure as a Takara Tomy Mall exclusive, pre-orders have started popping up on our sponsors sites. Due to ship in late January 2020, Smokescreen is coming now in vibrant cartoon accurate colors and deco. This means most of the original logos and details have been taken out, but the final result will sure look as the Smokescreen we remember from the cartoon.

The official Takara Tomy YouTube Channel has uploaded the final fourth part of their “Three Little Piglets” story using the Studio Series toys as the respective piglets.

This original and fun re-telling of the classic tale also works as a crossover with several Takara Tomy’s franchises. We have the Studio Series Optimus Prime, Ratchet and Bumblebee, the Death Rex Zoid, from Zoids Wild as the evil wolf and with the company of Gilraptor, and a special appearance of the plastic animal toys from Takara Tomy Ania line.

The final video is fan for sure, and adds another fun surprise with an “extended finale” to the original story with the participation of several Zoids Wild toys.

Well, it took awhile, but we finally have our first look at what this team looks like in their intended combined form! Last year, we saw the release of Voyager Elita-1, along with Deluxes Nova-star and Moonracer, in the Power of the Primes Generations line. After the line concluded, fans were left wondering what happened to the other two limb components? Thanks to the Amazon exclusive release of Greenlight and the upcoming Generations Select release of Lancer, we finally get to see the combined mode of all five female Autobots – Orthia! These images come courtesy of the Gen Zero Facebook group. Also shown are comparison shots of the whole team together in vehicle and robot mode. The team looks great together, showing off a variety of color. There’s even an additional photo of the group with Siege Chromia (whose mold uses similar engineering sans a combiner port).

Update: Even more images thanks toたごーる (@tagoal) on Twitter
