Three more Deluxe Studio Series toys have been found in the Walmart Computers, with names suggesting more 1986 Movie characters getting toys - Kup, Jazz, Blurr (two aren't even in the new movies).
The other names on the list are interesting as well, with Jolt & Dino listed, which could mean that we are still going to see new movie characters coming out along side the old movie characters.
Just a thought... the Star Wars Black Series is somewhat comparable to Studio Series. The Star Wars series has included characters from parts of the franchise that aren’t in live action movies (such as the Rebels cartoon, and latest Marvel comics). For those they’ve been done in a realistic style to not look out of place with movie-inspired characters.
What if Studio series Kup, Blurr, Grimlock etc turned out to be somewhat similar realistic takes on the cartoon designs?
(Probably not since there’s no such designs to be based on but would be an interesting take and something more unique than more CHUG/MP style toys).
I don't think it is a realistic take. Someone pointed out to me that the Voyager Cyclonus that was leaked was super 86-movie-accurate in a way CHUG isn't.Quote:

Splitting 84-86 G1 characters over both WFC and SS is boring (can’t we have things that aren’t those again!) but probably what’s going to happen.
This was shared on a Facebook group. Obviously take it with a grain of salt.

Three new Cyberverse Deluxe toys have been found on the Walmart website (actual product pages, so probably more likely than just a rumour... but no images or details, so rumour it will remain for now).
Starscream, Soundwave and Prowl - there is no mention of them being part of a build-a-figure this time, so we will have to wait and see when they are officially revealed to see if these ones come with bonus parts.
Could very well be fake but there's a very blurry version of some War for Cybertron Trilogy: Kingdom promotional art going around with lots of BW characters in it:-

Promo images of Earthrise Boxsets for Ramjet & Dirge plus Ironhide & Prowl appear to have leaked.

I'm happy with Henkei Prowl and Siege Ironhide, but these new ones do look nice.Quote:

G1 Starscream, Prime Knockout, and redeco Optimus.
WFC-E41 Runabout has been said to be found on the Target computers in America, which is an expected redeco of Runamuck, and the Earthrise number hasn't been used yet.
I hope he's not yet another Target Exclusive.Quote:

Guessing it'll be general release this time unlike Siege. Prowl went from general to Amazon exclusive and Smokescreen went from Gen Selects to general. Why do I get the feeling we'll get and Earthrise Barricade?Quote:

Can't see any new accessories as those four parts on the left hand side are parts of Rampage/Skipjack and Mixmaster. Long Haul might have some new gold/yellow paint apps on him or that could just be a reflection, not sure.Quote:

This TFW news posting has that image in the post above, but stretched sideways, which you can see from the "Transformers" writing on the box, looks right (the image above appears to have been squished from the sides for some strange reason).
It's gonna be a big box.
Another listing of products from a US store computer system (Target), with photos of the actual listings.

Are those new beast wars figures?
Kingdom is part 3 of WFC and is Beast Wars themed, so probably yes. Inferno is likely to be the G1 character Grapple redeco though.Quote:

More US Walmart store listings have surfaced...
This image has been floating around today, which looks to collate the recent retail listings... I don't think it is a separate listing from a different source (so don't see it as confirmation from an unrelated source... but the US store listings should be fairly reliable at this stage, while some names are likely to change from these early place-names).Quote:

Another set of Walmart listings that are a bit on the left-field side of things...
These are assortment listings, which would be for different size classes... but since they already have Kingdom listings, could these be for the toyline that will be replacing Cyberverse, because we don't know yet what will be the "younger demographic" toyline will be for next year.Quote:

If it was for the Generations toys that were "headmasters", it is more likely that it would be listed as "Titan Master".
There will be a lot of speculating until we get some actual product leaks or official announcements.
Could even be what's replacing rescue bots, I mean titan/headmaster can be easily redefined as, "Imagine you're the transformer!" TBH this is just speculation.
Does anyone have any ideas about the Walmart Headmasters listings?
I know that Walmart gets the G1 reissues, but would it be too far fetched to hope for G1 headmaster reissues?
I never really followed mold rumours about what had survived, and what had not. But on some of the g1 reissues from walmart they?ve actually made changes, suggesting they?re using new moulds anyway.
Or do you think this is probably just excess titans return stock repackaged?
I'm wondering with the new core class, maybe they're deluxe priced but come with a battlemaster accessory. Pure speculation obviously.Quote:

Speculation that the Titan Class toy for Kingdom will be the Ark, continues to grow, with an unconfirmed leak of an image from somewhere obscure, which could just be something thrown together based on the rumours.
Meanwhile, the Studio Series Devastator boxset has been listed on another online store, but still hasn't been officially revealed yet... so I'll stick this here for now.

This all-in-one Constructicons pack contains 2 Deluxe Class Figures: Constructicon Scrapmetal, Constructicon HIghtower; 4 Voyager Class figures: Constructicon Rampage, Constructicon Long Haul, Constructicon Scrapper, and Constructicon Mixmaster; 2 Leader Clas Figures: Constructicon Overload, Constructicon Scavenger.

Assemble the figure and add the ultimate destructive Decepticon force to recreating battle scenes from the Transformers Revenge of the Fallen movie!
Are you ready for the incredible might of Devastator? You’ll combine and attack with the most destructive Decepticon yet with the Construction figures in this Devastator set! Every one of these warriors converts from robot to vehicle mode and back, and in vehicle mode they can build or destroy whatever the battle calls for, whether it’s Constructicon Long Haul hauling debris as a semi truck or Constructicon Scrapper shoveling it up as a forklift. But when the battle calls for total warfare, they’ll combine to form the terrifying, Devastator! His massive feet will crush puny enemies as he rakes them with blaster fire. Take the destruction to the next level with this monumental Devastator set! Transformers and all related characters are trademarks of Hasbro.
The Transformers battle doesn’t get any bigger than this — and Transformers fans can decide who fights it. Transformers Movie Studio Series figures unite to form giant super robots. This 8-figure pack contains the entire Constructicons team. Combine Constructicons figures to form a mighty Devastator robot.

So the listing says Rampage but the box set pic that got leaked had a yellow leg, which would be Skipjack, right?Ummm?
The boxset that looked to be from Asia, had the yellow version in there, but they might still call it Rampage, as the both colour versions in 2009 were called Rampage. (the new name for the yellow one as a separate toy this year was probably just to put a little more effort into the SS versions)
Or someone at TFsource was just making up the listing, based on what they were guessing was the contents.
Ah, those both make a lot of sense.Quote:

The artwork looks just like a drawing to me, and could just as easily be artwork we?d see on a box. Am I missing something though?
I’m definitely down for an Ark, playsets are my jam. Honestly a lot are expecting it to have a robot mode/transform, but I would be perfectly fine with it being non-transforming and still a Titan class toy. They could definitely jam more features in that way. Some Animated nods like the AllSpark could be cool, apart from the obvious G1 homage.
In Animated, Omega Supreme transformed into an Autobot ship that looked like the Ark (might have even been called the Ark). I was one of many who hated the tease of seeing it in the cartoon and not having it as a toy... possibly due to the early axing of the series by Hasbro.Quote:

So, i just checked TF Wiki.Quote:

The Allspark Almanac confirms the cartoon naming convention but adds that the ship itself is named 'Orion'.
The comics call the ship itself "Teletran-1" and the robot Omega Supreme.
In short, the ship was never referred to as 'the Ark' in fiction. Some Hasbro reps did call it that at events, but other reps denied it.
Looks like a new Japanese Gen Selects has been leaked: Earth mode Barricade. https://m.facebook.com/story.php?sto...90726147660000
I want Micromaster Barricade. :(Quote:

I’m a bit exhausted by it, so I’ve mostly given up on replacing ones I already have. Prowl, Bluestreak, Ironhide and Ratchet are all still great toys after all. I am actually surprised at how many collectors are still chasing the new Earth versions, given the big investment into Siege.
