AUG 16th live reveal - Studio Series & Legacy wave 3

[griffin]

A few hours ago Hasbro did their live stream as promised, and featured many of the toys from SDCC that they said that they would do a full reveal of later.
They also did a big reveal of the new British Stamps that were found out a few days ago, which they claim can be purchased and shipped internationally. (I will find out the details and post it up if true).

Screenshots and details will be from here (I will host some copies of some of it later today)...
My comments in bold.

• Hasbro teamed up with Royal Mail for TF art stamps
• “Personally approved by Queen Elizabeth II”

• Studio Series reveals now
• Deluxe TLK Hot Rod
• Deluxe TLK Crosshairs
• Crosshairs has jetpack and trenchcoat incorporated
• Voyager SS86 Ironhide
• Leader ROTF Fallen
• Fallen turns into Cybertronian spacecraft
• Core SS86 Wheelie
• Core SS86 Ratchet
• Eventual redecos for Core Ratchet to Ironhide and Voyager Ironhide to Ratchet As it was predicted they would.
• Core DOTM Laserbeak disguised as pink Bumblebee
• Core SS86 Rumble (that’s what Hasbro said) This toy is done in cartoon purple/blue, because SS86 is cartoon universe, not toy universe, so has to be called Rumble.
• Rumble comes with blasters AND piledrivers

• Legacy recaps
• Deluxe Pointblank and Peacemaker
• Deluxe Crankcase
• Crankcase’s grill pops off to form gun
• Deluxe Dead End

• Deluxe Skullgrin – Full 360 degree rotation on gun-turrets.
• Lots of design changes were made for the head.
• Regarding Pretenders – Asking the fans whether we want to bring back the shells.
• Voyager Class Predacon Inferno – Big red fire-ant
• Takara Tomy worked on it.
• Comes with the rocket booster.
• Booster spins.
• The blaster comes off.
• Beast mode follows the ‘Kingdom format’.
• Armada Starscream – Regular colored sword (grey) since the color clashed with Star Saber. Official images show a red sword, so it might be grey on the actual toy.
• Twin null-ray cannons with blast effects.
• Voyager Class Transmetal 2 Dragon Megatron Designed by Sam.
• Wings articulate.
• Comes with a fire-breath accessory which doubles as a flame club in robot mode.

• Core Class Bomburst – Pretender Shell Monsterform with Cybertronian vehicle. Very nicely done to hide each mode in the other mode, for a small toy
• Package refresh Core Class Soundwave – Cassette doesn’t transform.
• Original plan is to have Laserbeak’s head to pop out.
