Transformers: Rise of the Beasts

[Haywire]

So, I stand corrected. The Authentics Bravo figures are a LOT bigger than Core class. I took shots of them next to several contemporary figures, and they are nearly as tall as Bumblebee/Bug Bite. I thought maybe they might be roughly the old Basic size, but they are even a little bigger than Energon Arcee, but slightly smaller than Cyberverse One-step Whirl. So, scale might be a little off, although maybe okay for Primal?

Thanks for the pics. Yeah, looks a bit big for my Core/Legends class collection. I wouldn't want him towering over Optimus.

 

[Haywire]

Yeah, I don't know that Bravo Primal would scale well with Core (unless you retcon him as having scanned a gorilla from Skull Island!), but he might scale well with a Voyager Optimus?

I will still be looking for one (I'm kind of liking the Kong Primal idea), but definitely won't be a true Core-class figure.

Aw, guess I'll have to wait until Core Class Arcee then.

What if Hot Rod has a thing for tall ladies? Even robots can't resist a bit of snu snu.

Core Class Arcee and Freezer (Frenzy?)

Possible 1st Look at Studio Series Core Arcee and Terrorcon Freezer

Some new listings on Amazon Australia have revealed two possible new Core class Studio Series figures from the Rise of the Beasts film. 1st up is Arcee, scaled to Core class to accommodate her motorcycle mode presumably. The other figure is a bit more interesting. Apparently the name of the...

Seeing as it's labeled as a Terrorcon, I'd say Freezer is not Frenzy but a new character.

Frenzy is a Decepticon.

"General Kenobi!"

Freezer looks like a Fossilizer version of Frenzy, heh. Going by the description it doesn't transform though, just has a weapon mode, which rarely ever look good.


Also, Arcee. Who kinda looks less refined than the (I assume) smaller Arcee triplets, in terms of engineering and sculpt at least.

 

[Superomegaprime]

With Freezer, when do we see the purple, white & pink repaint? Wait, I'm getting my brands mixed up, aren't I?

 

[Steevy Maximus]

Freezer transforms into a weapon usable by other Studio Series?

Perhaps this character (or characters, if there ends up being more than one) provided the inspiration behind the “Power Series” of gimmick toys planned for release?
Either way, Freezer looks like an ”old school” Bayformers design, and while I dig the IDEA, I’m not sure I’m willing to spend $13 for a glorified Battlemaster. At least not until I see the film.

Arcee looks…fine, I guess. I bit jarring at how novel/elegant the core class has largely been to this point to see her..awkwardness in design. If listings are to be believed…I want to say there’s a Mainline Deluxe due of her as well, as well as some gimmick toys. Might be worth it to “wait the line out” and see how the assorted toys shake out.

Entertainment Earth’s “Drop Zone” has a posting for Tuesday, January 24th at 10am PST:
“This is going to be a beast of a drop, so be sure not to miss it!”

Kind of feels like a hint to a big preorder drop for Rise of the Beasts. There are other Tuesday listings that point to Transformers drops, so the Studio Series stuff might get revealed sooner.

 

[Shadewing]

If it just me or does that Arcee look kinda like they wanted to do a remake of Energon Arcee?

I was thinking the same kind of thing, but I guess they decide to use that as a base as the Pink robot car would be ruled out

Transformers Studio Series Arcee action figure is highly articulated for posability and features movie-inspired deco and details

2 ICONIC MODES: This action figure for 8 year old boys and girls features classic conversion between robot and motorcycle modes in 11 steps

Reminds me of Energon Arcee/Superlink Ariel:

Terrorcon Freezer Transformers figure attaches to other Studio Series figures in robot or vehicle as a battle weapon (each sold separately, subject to availability)

Reminds me of Frenzy:

Maybe 'Freezer' is an awkward reference to Freezon, the Tyco slot race car TF from G1 that had the same head design as Frumbly.

Also, "FREZer" = "FREnZy"?

Wow, with cheeks like those, they should have given him a baboon alt-mode.

 

[The Phazer]

The core class doesn't have the parts count to really carry a realistic motorbike off tbh.

 

[Sabrblade]

Looks like the bike mode is mistransformed, like the robot head is supposed to tuck away and her shoulders should fold up to bring the arms together in order to complete the back of the bike mode, a la Animated Prowl's original Deluxe toy.
