I was waiting for a red or gold Cog toy since watching the Siege series. Glad that they finally got around to it.
The new weapons and integration with Arcee are a nice touch as well.

Officially revealed by Hasbro yesterday (https://www.facebook.com/transformers/posts/7288117037925094) are four new toys that will be exclusives at Target in America... and we will see if any of them are expected to be released in Australia.


Three are redecos for the Legacy toyline (in Buzzworthy packaging), while the fourth toy is the next of the Movie Masterpiece toys - Blackout.

Of the three Legacy redecos, we have original 1996 toy decos of Kingdom Dinobot and Golden Disk Terrorsaur, and a red redeco of Siege Cod... with the creative name of "Red Cog".

Meanwhile, over on Instagram (https://www.instagram.com/p/CdG_m0FORwt/), Hasbro Designer Mark Maher has revealed a bonus feature of one of the new accessories that comes with Red Cog - it allows a weapons mode of Cog to be attached to the back of Arcee like a rocket pack.

Also over on Instagram (https://www.instagram.com/p/CdH_CvWujqn/), another Hasbro Designer, Sam Smith, has posted up some size comparison images for MPM Blackout next to MPM Megatron and Starscream.
And if you go to Sam Smith's instagram page (https://www.instagram.com/king_samlock/), there are three turnaround video clips, for Blackout in both modes and the Scorponok figure.

A photo of Red Cog in box (https://www.instagram.com/p/CdJ1IFaOPkZ/), with a warning that the extra accessories are wrapped up in the tissue paper in the bottom of the box, so don't see it as just padding and throw it away... unwrap the contents first.

Over on Instagram one of the Hasbro designers (https://www.instagram.com/king_samlock/) has been posting up more of MPM Blackout, including more comparison photos with the other Decepticon MPMs, and more looks at the toy itself.

This first image won me over (it is on the TFW page (https://news.tfw2005.com/2022/05/05/transformers-movie-masterpiece-mpm-13-blackout-production-sample-images-455338), but I can't find it on the designer's instagram posts), as we didn't see this feature yet, and Blackout really needs to be able to have Scorponok plug into its back to replicate the movie...

The Transformers Collectors Club Australia facebook page has reported (https://www.facebook.com/groups/transformerscca/posts/2135938963233362/) news from Hasbro Australia that only Red Cog will be available locally around August through "Australian Fan/Online channels". Buzzworthy Dinobot and Terrorsaur wont be released locally.

Red Cog in-hand by one of the usual leakers (https://news.tfw2005.com/2022/06/05/transformers-legacy-red-cog-in-hand-images-457885), detailing all of the extra accessories that will come with it... most of which are probably unique and exclusive to this toy.

As noted in the online sightings, the Dinobot and Terrorsaur toys are out in Asia (at one Singapore online store in particular), and within days they were both (https://news.tfw2005.com/2022/07/11/buzzworthy-bumblebee-legacy-voyager-class-heroic-maximal-dinobot-found-at-us-retail-460491) found at US Target (https://news.tfw2005.com/2022/07/11/buzzworthy-bumblebee-legacy-deluxe-class-terrorsaur-toy-deco-out-at-us-retail-460494) stores as well.
