He looks more leader class to me.

Also when it comes to Ratchet, they shouldn't forget this onebox component.

Thank you. I could have sworn it featured in the animation. Didn't Ironhide's too?

Ratchet will likely be just a straight up repaint of 86 Ironhide with a different head, the closest to that picture would be the Earthrise figure, thou I think they could pull off that G1 Ratchet if they gave him a leader class budget

Yeah, at best they'll give him a spanner or the long gun, he isn't going to get that big an accessory.

That, or the blue pegs themselves will just be the sirens. Since we're cutting corners costs these days, I can see that happening.

too old for this

They really should have made those yellow bits that same gold plastic used on the other dinos. The transition is jarring. Otherwise, he looks fine.

Lets hope all those people who complain about early video reviews of toys are correct that they're non-final and it will be fixed!

(It won't.)

Regarding Snarl, where's Tyrannitron?
Waaaaay more interesting then Wheelie and Daniel.
Damn you. Now I'm going to be upset that we didn't get one.

Make it a straight repaint of the Crashbash/Clobber mold and I'd be pleased as punch.

Thinking about it's suggested that Swoop will be practically a glorified accessory pack gave me the thought:

"It'd be a right dick-move to stick that in the 'Buzzworthy Bumblebee' line."

THEN I realized: "My god. They can do that* with the Red Swoop!"

*"That"= Red Swoop including all the missing weapons and leave Studio Series Swoop a Standard Single release.

Except Buzzworthy Bumblebee isn't available in many other countries, like Japan, so that wouldn't be a good idea.

'nother batch of 2024 figures got listed.


TRA GEN STUDIO SERIES CORE MV5 MOHAWK
TRA GEN STUDIO SERIES CORE MV6 RUMBLE
TRA GEN STUDIO SERIES CORE MV6 STARSCREAM
TRA GEN STUDIO SERIES DLX TF7 SCORPINOCK
TRA GEN STUDIO SERIES DLX MV6 SUNSTREAKE
TRA GEN STUDIO SERIES DLX WFC SIDESWIPE
TRA GEN STUDIO SERIES VOY WFC STARSCREAM
TRA GEN STUDIO SERIES VOY 86 SCRAPHEAP
TRA GEN STUDIO SERIES VOY MV6 SHOCKWAVE
TRA GEN STUDIO SERIES LDR MV6 MEGATRON
TRA GEN STUDIO SERIES LDR AST TF86 SWOOP


So MV6 is the Bumblebee movie, which is interesting because characters like Rumble and Megatron weren't in that movie. TFW says some of the MV6 listings might just be erronous '86 listings, but we've already gotten a core Rumble in SS, plus a core Starscream in Legacy, so who knows.

Also more WFC and hey look, it's Swoop!

Also ANOTHER Voyager Junkion, leading me to believe the one in Evolution isn't going to be a retool of the Wreck-Gar mold.

EDIT: I guess the TF7 Scorpinock might be a spoiler, I don't know if we knew he might be in this movie until now.

Maybe. I'd like to see that for Megatron and Rumble. But I played both the High Moon games and Sunstreaker wasn't in either from what I recall.

Or it could be that they're SS86 instead. I'd be pretty excited about that, as I initially skipped the Earthrise one. I'd be happy to get another shot at him.

Sunstreaker was seen three times in the film, fixing up a road barrier, Prime's co pilot on the shuttle and standing around playing dead as Optimus rode into battle alone, if they're doing Snarl they're doing him, and if they're doing him they'll do Prowl.

We already have ER Prowl, I doubt we get a SS85 movie figure. That Sunstreaker figure missed the mark IMO and I would welcome a SS86 that matches the movie / G1 mold a lot better. And hopefully not be 2 or 3 different shades of yellow.
