War For Cybertron - Earthrise

[Paulbot]

You'd think by now (35+ years later!) they could do this without the tip of the plane hanging off the back of the head. The front on view looks maniuplated to hide it (compared to the front on action shot - given how high it sits in the back view)

And seriously, the back of Starscream looks like an Authentics or Cyberverse toy. So plain (not plane!) and the wings look hollow.

Grr. I'll probably end up buying three of it.

I've seen detailed video close ups now of the Earthrise artwork, and SPOILER ALERT

Probably just the tiny Galvatron fig that comes with Unicron. Could be something though.

I saw that too, kinda exciting. The one from Titans Return is fairly decent when 'upgraded' with a something like a shapeways helmet, in my opinion. I think Hasbro would be able to make better figure this time round, so it'd be interesting to see what they come up with.

I came across this video today as well, and wonder how he gets hold of the figure because I haven't seen any place (retail or online) stock it yet.

Another review but by tonton

Pre-order listings have been put up in Japan for the September wave of Earthrise toys, which has one regular release figure (Doubledealer) and two TakaraTomyMall exclusive figures (Snapdragon and Race Track Patrol).... continuing the trend of most Earthrise toys being TTM exclusives, including all of the smaller sized figures.

- ER-08 - Doubledealer (Leader - same as Hasbro version?) - SEPT 26th (6600yen)
- ER EX-09 - Race Track Patrol (Roller Force & Groundhog) (Micromaster 2-pack - same as Hasbro version?) (TakaraTomyMall excl) - LATE SEPT (1650yen)
- ER EX-10 - Snapdragon (Voyager - same as Hasbro version?) (TakaraTomyMall excl) - LATE SEPT (4950yen)

This may have been in a rumour listing somewhere, but I think this is the first official confirmation, with official images, of Siege Battlemaster Rung being re-released in Earthrise, as the wave-mate to Slitherfang (wave 2).
Since WFC-E14 was one of the few numbers not included in the New York Toyfair press-releases, it was assumed to be a Battlemaster (because 13 is Slitherfang, while 15 was a Deluxe)... but now we know for sure what it is - which is good for those who had trouble finding one (being a final wave toy, it had little to no chance of being released here, or in most countries... and we missed out on most waves of Siege Battlemasters and Micromasters in Australia).

Same lol
And the multitude of repaints. I'm low key hoping there isn't 31 variants like the CHUG's
