-TF Animated -
Shadow Blade Megatron
Roadbuster Ultra Magnus
Cyber Speed Bumblebee
Street Patrol Bumblebee

-Universe -
Overload
Vector Prime
Leo Prime

I particularly find Universe Leo Prime interesting. I hope for everyone's sake here that its the BWII mold in proper colors and if it is, I would also be a bit annoyed as I recently ordered one :eek:

[Tober]

Yeah, here's hoping Leo Prime is good.

I wonder if Overload is supposed to be Overlord... Not that I really recognise either name :o

[Thanatos]

Isn't overload just that repaint of Cybertron Quickmix?

[Pulse]

I can smell repaints from a mile away... :rolleyes:

The boards seem to think they'll be repainting this guy (http://www.seibertron.com/transformers/toys/armada/overload/381/) *sigh*

[Tober]

Ahh, ok, thanks.

People are also guessing that Leo Prime will be a repaint of Leo Breaker... tbc.

[STL]

:eek: leobreaker would make a terrible Lio Prime. Overload could be a straight up repaint but of whom i'm not sure. I think those Animated Leaders are an absolute pass for me as are all the BB repaints. They really are milking the name now aren't they?

Actually, just had a thought, could Roadbuster Ultra Magnus really just be a homage to the -real- G1-style Sentinel Prime? Orange/Red = Sentinel Prime. Just need a massive lance/sceptre to boot! In that case, I could jump at that. Great mold that Ultra Magnus will be.

[Golden Phoenix]

I'm hoping for new molds, but based on what they are asking for, I doubt they are.
Based on what they did to Legends Leo Prime, it wouldn't surprise me that it it would be Leobreaker.
as for Overload, I don't think he will be the armada one, unless they are going to do Armada Prime too then it wouldn't be very bright to do a straight repaint.

[GoktimusPrime]

I agree with Goldie, it'll probably be a repaint of Leobreaker.

I personally dislike how Hasbro persistently call the Leobreaker mould "Leo" because "Leo" means lion (http://www.africa-nature-photography.com/images/Captive-Male-Lion-L.jpg) (Panthera leo) and the beast mode is a liger/tigon (http://www.hazelwood.k12.mo.us/~czlkwski/summercamp05/liger%206.jpg) (Panthera leo x P. tigris), not a lion (hence why Leobreaker's Japanese name is Liger Jack). :/

Arise, Liger Prime!

Do you honestly expect that the man who named a Transformer 'Scattor' would be able to see the distinction between the two??

[SilverDragon]

I don't see any point in making a separate topic, so I'm just adding to this one.

More new toy listings were found on the same site. From http://www.tfw2005.com/boards/transformers-news-rumors/184961-even-more-new-listings-walmart-com.html

Transformers Animated Bumper Battler Lockdown
Transformers Animated Bumper Workzone Bulkhead
Transformers Animated Bumper Stealth Ninja Jazz
Transformers Animated Activators Bandit Lockdown
Transformers Animated Activators Ramjet
Transformers Universe Deluxe Dinobot
Transformers Universe Deluxe Starscream

DINOBOT HECK YEAH

I wonder if the Starscream is the Classics version re-released or supposed to represent another version?

[Golden Phoenix]

I'm surprised about Starscream since they already did him in classics. It'll probably be just a re-release like the Prime/Megatron 2 pack.
I am hoping Dinobot is a new mold. A Grimlock repaint would suck, and I was never a fan of the Beast Wars mold.
Ramjet is predictable, just wonder if they will do the female one with a re-molded face like they did for Cliffjumper

[Paulbot]

Activator Ramjet and Activator Thundercracker. 2 down, three more to go! :)

[STL]

Rhinox needs some love!

[Pulse]

The boards seem to think both Screamer & Dinobot are new moulds but to me :) - Classics Screamer & Reissue Dinobot are both perfect so I just can't see myself forking out money for these 2...

[kup]

Rhinox needs some love!

Rhinox wouldn't be to hard to do as they don't have to radically change the transformation sequence of his original toy. Just fix things such as the head mold and integrate the front leg shells into his arms like in the cartoon.

[SilverDragon]

I am hoping Dinobot is a new mold. A Grimlock repaint would suck, and I was never a fan of the Beast Wars mold.

I wouldn't really mind a Grimlock repaint (I was searching for him last year and never found him!), but NOT as Dinobot. It wouldn't work at all.

Meh. Whatever happens, it's going to end up in my collection for sure.
