[Stepwise]

Found it.

Last post was February 12, 2022 . . . so yeah, it's a little out of date.

But that list you linked to was pretty spot on, wasn't it?

It's official, the War for Cybetron toys are based on the 2010 videogame, starting a new "Gamer" Studio Series, starting over at #1.

Transformers Studio Series War for Cybertron Figures Revealed, Pre-Orders Live

Woah, nice. Transformers Generations Studio Series is moving into a new sub-line to go along with SS 86 - Gaming. To kick things off, the War for Cybertron video game series from the last decade will get all new toys based on characters in the game. Optimus, Bumblebee and Barricade kick...

Voyager Prime (who is $35 dollars instead of $34) and Deluxe Bumblebee and Barricade are available for preorder from the usual places.

Please reissues the games to go alongside these…

 

[Gizmoboy]

My suspicions were correct in that these were WfC the video game related. I'm a little surprised to be right about this. I sold off most of my WfC collection, except for my Seekers.

That Bumblebee looks significantly worse than the old Generations one. The Optimus isn't too bad, other than the head is a little too small, even for a Transformer (who's heads are typically a bit undersized compared to their bodies).

 

[Gizmoboy]

I was just thinking how much better the Bumblebee looked than the original. I used to own Bee and Cliffjumper and always thought they were pretty crappy. This one's proportions look so much better.

From the front page for those who haven't seen the news yet.

Prime and Barricade look really good.

Bumblebee looks awful. The whole middle of the figure is an off model, awkward looking mess.

-ZacWilliam, honestly these were great games but the designs were always my least favorite thing about them so this whole "subline" is an easy pass for me.

Proportions I would agree are mostly better. The Generations one had super-spindly legs. But that midsection on the new one is pretty rough.

Needs more random RGB to really be called GAMER imo.

TRONsformer light cycle crossover when, Hasbro?

I guess I see what you're saying here. I can't say I disagree.

Also, Voyager WfC Megatron PLEASE!!!

[Gizmoboy]

I'm sure I'll be picking up at least Barricade as I really enjoyed playing him in the game.

 

[Donocropolis]

Interesting that all the figures have removable forearms.

 

[Sabrblade]

I gasped in gleeful excitement when I saw the reveal pics in the Hasbro Pulse email.

Bumblebee is the very definition of a "Lateral move". The scout from 2013 did it better, at the cost of the vehicle mode, but a fair trade.
