Posting this here since, turns out, it's part of the new T-SPARK assortment. Amazon Japan and TakaraTomy Mall have both posted order pages for the new T-SPARK Transformers 40TH SELECTION Lio Convoy, complete with full official pics of the figure.

IT LIVES! IT'S COMING! https://www.163.com/dy/article/J8U8LK6I0515DGNM.html https://finance.sina.com.cn/tech/roll/2024-08-06/doc-inchtpev9754247.shtml New trailer: Some notable changes have been made in the time since its original announcement. Namely, the series title has been changed...

It just needed a lower jaw. The G1 toy shell had one, but it was molded onto the chest and left unpainted in gray, so it got lost in the details and overlooked by the update.

It was a different pic, originally.

I feel it should be noted that both Skullgrin and Bomb-Burst were late-addition replacements for what were originally going to be the modular gimmick toys of the Legacy Year 1 line, the Energon Monsters. Notice how Legacy Year 1 is the only line from Siege to now to not have its own modular...

New trailer! This looks SO FUN and SO GOOD!

With all the Pretender updates we've seen from this Hasbro team so far, proper shells that actually house a separate robot figure inside them seem to be the one gimmick that this current Hasbro team seems very reluctant to do. The closest we've ever come in recent years were the Prime Masters...

In the 2000s, The Fallen was considered more analogous to Judas.

Yep. "War Dawn" placed Orion Pax being shot by Megatron and rebuilt into Optimus Prime as having happened "nine million years ago".

"Six" million years? 🤨

The Covenant of Primus book did this for the Aligned timeline too. The novels painted the Thirteen era as a totally bygone ancient era completely lost to time with no one still alive other than Alpha Trion having ever been there. Then the CoP went and put nearly every major character from the...

Though, the question being how G1-ified that Animated Omega Supreme would be. If it's just a redeco of Kingdom Ark with a new robot head, no thank you. That's not Animated Omega. At all.

I mean, the Nemesis 2-parter kinda went out of its way to all but state outright that the prophetic quotes in the Covenant of Primus were referring to the events of that 2-parter. The intention seems pretty clear that the "Megatron" described in the book was indeed referring to Beast Wars...

And even in his first episode debut in the cartoon, he was also pretty enormous there.

I have to wonder if the idea of The Fallen having a name similar to Megatron and serving as the in-universe inspiration for his name was possibly inspired by the Megatron of myth described in the Covenant of Primus in the Beast Wars series finale, with those who got the idea from that not...

I'm reminded of when we were first teased by Andrew "Hydra" Hall about Thrilling 30 Titan class Metroplex, describing his forthcoming reveal as "pants-pooping news". And once the figure was revealed, "poop" became a synonym for "awesome" on here for a while.

Yeah, I previously brought up the possibility of Megatron's change for the worse being the product of exposure to some kind of corruptive substance like Dark Energon or something, based on a couple of shots in the trailer where his chest and arm look to be surging with some kind of evil-looking...

This post might be right up your alley, then. ;)

Hmmm.... The Ark of the Covenant... The Covenant of Primus... The next line after Legacy United is themed around the Thirteen, Primus's first creations... I guess it could be Primus in some form. BUT, it doesn't necessarily have to be a Primus that turns into Cybertron. It could be some...
