Rise of the Beasts toys, leaks and listings

[Paulbot]

Having had Beast Wars Transformers toys on shelves for the last year, and the Transformers brand overall, will probably help the toys sell regardless of the movie delay - compared to say Top Gun which was/is a movie from the 80s with no momentum as a toyline.

If the shelves are full of gimmick movie toys though...

Just waiting to see the Rise of the Beast Mirage (Porsche) in toy form

More evidence that the Mv7 toyline is coming out in April (and not held back for the release of the movie) is a listing found on Amazon America for a "Battle Master Rhinox" for release on or around April 15th (the release dates on Amazon pages are not always reliable or accurate).

The product number listed (F4600) seems about right for products scheduled for this year.

Some new Movie 7 items found somewhere online - Gimmick toys... Converting masks and Titan Changers. No images or specifics yet, but it shouldn't be anything too exciting.

• MV7 Titan Changer Optimus Prime
• MV7 Converting Mask Assortment

Even though that item never ended up being released on April 15th, the product page is still there with old date, but without any new details.

Some more gimmick toys from the ROTB toyline have been found in some sort of import inventory system.

2-In-1 Optimus Prime Blaster (F3901)



And this item started circulating online from an unknown source, and it looks way too technical to be fan-made.
It is a role-play mask of Optimus Primal (gorilla), but unlike all previous role-play masks/helmets, this one also transforms into a playable toy robot.
It is definitely something new, as I don't think I have seen anything like it for Transformers before... at least, from Hasbro or TakaraTomy.

A second transformable mask has surfaced online, which is Bumblebee.

And the instructions for the Optimus mask have been posted up as well.
