Hasbro Teases New Optimus Prime for SDCC2018

[DELTAprime]

I don't think it looks like the original WFC Prime. Just looks like G1 Prime with the typical modern Optimus axe. Remember this WFC has nothing to do with the original WFC which was set in the Transformers Prime universe.

Anyway I can't wait till next week to see what next years line looks like. I hope there are lots of G1 characters we have never had in the CHUG line.

Also if the Micromaster rumour is true I hope they sell them in full Patrols. It would trigger the little OCD part of my brain if I didn't have the full Patrol.

It doesn’t look particularly compelling... another Optimus Prime isn’t particularly a surprise.

Will be interested to see what the other figures from the new War for Cybertron line are like though.

(What would really excite me is a tease of the Seacon combiner)

My first impression is that it is POTP OP with an axe (from the arm kibble and the feet). Might that heart rhythm pattern at the bottom of the pic relevant?

Maybe it's the new MP Optimus... but the hand-held axe doesn't make much sense.

I hope not a new MP. We already have 3.0 coming. I feel we're becoming oversaturated with Primes. I understand why they do a new Prime with every new line, but I dunno, I'm kinda becoming over it. I've skipped Primes here and there for the last few lines.

Never enough optimus primes, we do need more megatrons though.

If it turns out to be the 3.0 it'd be a sign of a proper has-tak merger as for now they still have encoures and mp's exclusive to takara

[MEEEGGGAAATTTRRROOONNN!!!]

Looks too blocky to be 3.0:



Looks closer to POTP Prime:



But with MP-10's gun and a hand-held axe.

Nah, that’s just a Hasbro Pulse branding element

Nah, that’s just a Hasbro Pulse branding element

It's got a double meaning, its a hint that this will be a redeco of POTP OP in sleep mode! Just like the monitors on him in the movie just before he...

Note: This is not a serious post

It was a silhouette of WFC: Siege Optimus Prime, a Voyager.

Also reveals Sideswipe (deluxe) and Firedrive ('Battle Master' ie a Targetmaster).

Designs look interesting. They're not fully Cubertronian, but more sort of 1980s retro futuristic looking, kind of like the TF Animated designs.

Also, it looks like the first part of this new Generations trilogy is imprinted SIEGE.
