(I wonder if OP's feet will be visible in alt mode?)

They will be as the retooling is only the head, the toro, the arms and the leg fronts, everything else remains the same with the edition of a accessory to enable OP to hold the gun without removing the arm and going by the stock images, I would say they removed the feature that lets you take OP arm off which is sensible to me, its not really a great gimmick if you ask me as you have to put the arm somewhere else or the gun and have it fall off when you knock the figure by accident

Suppose it's a reference to Dreamwave/IDW gladiator Megatron from DW ongoing issue 10 and IDW Megatron Origin 2.

The Weapons are specifically from here:

-ZacWilliam, they got to do Cy-Kill now that we're getting his iconic jelly hammer.

So...

1. Do you think we'll get Venom?

2. If so, will it be a retool?

3. If so, of what?

4. Will it still be a cicada, despite the fact that cicadas aren't venomous?

1) Yes. We know this. He was leaked as being part of the 2025 main line months ago by the pretty much 100% reliable JT Prime.

2-3) I could see him being an extreme partial and using another Insecticon's like upper arms and wings or something, but being in the main line he has better than average odds of being a new figure or even a partial of something we have not seen yet. If he wants to be close to G1 at all he's gonna need to be mostly new.

4) Absolutely. Their Legacy goal has been to be mostly as close to G1 as viable and hasbro will want him to match the other 3. It's more likely he'd be renamed Venim again than not be a cicada.


-ZacWilliam, sadly he was listed as being in the Oct 2025 wave by said leak so we've got a wait. What I'd like is a Beet Papil from somebody myself...

Legacy Magmatron comes in a Takara-Tomy exclusive slipcase. Mine is being delivered but as I'm out at Toys r Us, I saw it for sale there.

(Edit: - Mine just got delivered today, so here are the two sides of the slipcase below in more detail).

Here's the entire TF display at the Toys r Us. It's tiny compared to all the other toy brand displays.

Fractured Friendship 2-pack is apparently on sale in China already, so there are in-hand pictures already. The comparison between Gamer Edition Prime and this new one is wild, it's a really thorough retool.


I really don't want yet another version of that Megatron mold (I have two and that's quite enough), but I really want that Prime as my defacto cybertron Optimus, especially since I skipped siege Prime

I guess it'll be nice to have gladiator Megatron as a transition between miner Megatron and siege Megatron.

That’s probably the most cohesive “Orion-to-Prime” set we’re ever going to get…

Oh, yeah. Outside from a few instances in the comic, it has been EXCEPTIONALLY rare to see a “Hot Rod -> Rodimus Prime” matrix upgrade get portrayed by Optimus Prime, much less in toy format.
That’s even before getting into just how impressive the retool itself is. The gray “core” bits is unchanged, but the red and blue sprues are largely new and VERY impressive. The fact they added a full head to the height is actually impressive. With the better images, it looks like he MIGHT retain the removable lower arm, but at least now the blaster doesn’t require that to function. Sad we lost the battle ax, I think it “scales” better with the increased height, but I think the new Megatron weapons help off set that.

Surprisingly, I’ve NOT managed to acquire a collection of Siege Megatrons. I only have the Netflix Spoiler pack (with that glorious Skelivore) and the G2 Earthrise version. The “rebellion” markings where most of his caution deco was in the prior figure creates a fantastic “link” between his incarnations, and just looks spiffy in a brutal kind of way.

I really didn’t expect to be enraptured by this set as I am. Trying to cut things back, but this one is really sticking with me.
