I wonder if A Level is some sort of Anniversary line. 86 Bumblebee is certainly a figure I want...even better if it is a bright yellow repaint of the Netflix Bee. Just needs an Autobot Symbol and possibly a new head. My guess is painted windows similar to Buzzworthy 86 Cliffjumper.

I could certainly see an "anime accurate" release to look as much like the cartoon model as possible.

I have to wonder if a SS86 Bumblebee would be more like the newer MP with more of the penny racer proportions.

Hopefully it would still be licensed.

I'd welcome that, and any more they plan to do without the clear windows.

Especially if that Bee has the Origin head instead of the dour WFC one.
G1 Bee should always look like a fren

Off the top of my head I'm thinking a SS86 Bee would be the VW mould with origin's lighter, flatter yellow, an Autobot symbol on the chest ala the show, maybe the origins head, and possibly dark grey limbs instead of black, with light blue painted windows.

Nothing Earth shattering but it'll give people options and be a way for people who never saw the Netflix one in person to pick up a version of the mould.

Now Deluxe Megs is the one I'm really curious about.

The Fanbook is out at Amazon but only being sold by scalpers, third party sellers at the moment. Hopefully, Amazon Japan will ship and sell it soon.

In the meantime, here's a slightly cropped video of the clear Optimus being transformed.

They also drop some name hints, sounds like the Amazon capsule might be Mayhem Attack Squad related an Legacy Year 3's subtitle will indeed be "United"

“So in my wave breakdown I somehow completely skipped over Drift and Lifeline. Rise is the code hasbro uses for some of the toys for the upcoming video game Transformers: Reactivate. They both should be out between August & November.


Also included below are listings for the upcoming commanders, Titan and some store exclusives. The finer details on their identities are still unknown, but I thought I’d give you guys a peek at what’s coming.

One thing I’m still searching for is next year’s Amazon Capsule, I’m sure once I find something it will cause Mayhem. Once all is revealed hopefully the toyline will finally be United.”

A reissue of Drift without the baby dinos? Or an all new take on the design? Hm.

United, with a Mayhem capsule. Interesting.

I think it's a toss up if those Retro 40th listings are for straight reissues, or something like the Retro Headmasters where we get a modern toy with retro packaging (something Walmart has carried before, like GI Joe Classified Retro figures)

The sad thing? I might be game for some modern toys in retro packaging.

United, with a Mayhem capsule. Interesting.

Ok, brainstorming time. According to the wiki here's a list of everyone whose ever been in any version of the mayhem Attack Squad:

Bludgeon
Octopunch
Stranglehold
Flywheels
Battletrap
Carnivac
Catilla
Snarler
Venom
Chop Shop
Needlenose
Spinister
Ruckus
Roadblock
Claw Jaw
Impactor
Leobreaker
Overbite
Polar Claw
Prowl (BW Owl)
Smolder
Stampy
Steamhammer
Tidal Wave
Tuskmaster
Windsweeper
Axer
Breakdown
Bugly
Knock Out
Roadgrabber
Skullgrin
Skyquake
Submarauder
Thunderblast

That is a GOOD list for both "Toys I'd Want" and "Guys Who Need Toys."

The obvious choices are the two Deluxe Insecticons, since the molds are there to work with and the team has been started. and Windsweeper cause same.

But there are a lot of other interesting choices too. Stampy from Core Tasmania Kid? Any of the Pretenders (especially Pretender Beasts) would be amazing.


-ZacWilliam, fun fun.
