It isn't just G1 celebrating an anniversary in 2024, it's the 15th anniversary of Transformers: Dark of the Moon as well! With the lack of Bayverse figures in Studio Series this year you wouldn't be wrong to think Hasbro would forget, but thanks to Jtprime17 it seems they remembered after all. A new listing was found calling for a new DotM four pack featuring Studio Series Optimus Prime and Jetfire along with two yet to be named Deluxe Autobots.
Tra Gen SS Multipack ROTF 15th Autobot Multipack. (LDR Jetfire, Voy Optimus & 2 unknown Deluxes)
Product code: G0294
In addition a listing for a three pack of Decepticon commanders was also found featuring Starscream, Shockwave and Soundwave. How the decos for these figures will be different from previous releases, especially the recent Takara Tomy Nemesis Bridge set, is unknown. In fact at this point we don't even know which molds we're getting, Cybertronian or Earth based. It's probably no coincidence that these same three Decepticons are shown together in the Transformers One movie trailer.

Big thanks to EvasionModeBumblebee and Sowndwave76 for posting these in the Seibertron Energon Pub forums!
If you're one of the many people that were intrigued by MP-60 Ginrai and MPM-09 Super Ginrai but really needed more views, then here you go! Scans from Japan's Figure King magazine #315 posted to Facebook by user Three Star Toys (三粒星星玩具屋) feature four page spread of photos of the actual (not final) figures including shots from the sides and behind. There are also a few comparison shots showing the truck cab to be only a little bigger than that of the G1 figure while Super Ginrai towers over the original figure. We also get get to see comparisons between the two Super Ginrai heads. There's a few good looks at their articulation including the good news that it appears Ginrai can stand up straight if you aren't a fan of the constant crotch trusting of the stock images, and can nearly bend over enough to touch his toes. Unfortunately they still remain aloof about the size of both modes.
Orders are still open at most retailers. Do the new images change your mind about this figure one way or the other or do they simply reenforce your current opinion? Let us know in the Seibertron Energon Pub forums!
TF:One Deluxe Optimus Prime was confirmed to be the first figure in the A Level category. They mentioned he should be easy to find and be on shelves for around 9 months. The figure is also specifically colored to perfectly match the movie color pallet.
They then went on to talk about the Wondercon reveals hitting stores now.
Nothing new to say about Swoop that we haven't already seen.
Apparently the size chart for the Bumblebee Movie lists Sunstreaker as a giant in bot mode and they chose to make him normal sized to match the other figures.
Nothing new to say about Sideswipe.
Our own Jon Bailey (AKA Epic Voice Guy) from the Twincast Podcast got a shoutout on the stream (you can hear him on the recent episode as of this time #347) for voicing Bumblebee Movie Shockwave in the movie!
Spacebridge "reveals" (just announced, not shown on the stream):

SS86 Leader Springer (confirmed bulked up retool of the Siege Voyager)

more and now this is simply an extra place for you to watch Armada. Just a heads up in case you did not know, enjoy!
The 40th anniversary of Transformers is bringing us a lot of big and new things, but one of the biggest staples of the franchise is coming to an end. With the release of MP-60 Ginrai, what they're calling the 100th MP figure when including certain special edition and limited releases they're calling it quits on the Masterpiece line as we know it. That's not to say we wont be getting anymore MPs at all, but the primary line that originated with MP-01 some 21 years ago will no longer Exist at the end of 2024. A blurb on the official website for MP-60 and MP-09 states that the line will continue with the MPG line moving forward. Whether this means all future MPs will be combiners of some sort or if the MPG line is being rebranded is currently unknown. What this might mean for the Masterpiece Movie line headed by Hasbro is also unknow, but probably wont be affected by this news, at least not outside of Japan. Until Takara Tomy clarifies further all we can do is speculate. Below you'll find the pertinent bit from the website as translated by Google.
With so many characters left undone it's hard to guess what the future might bring for the line. Thanks to Sabrblade in the Seibertron Energon Pub Forums for letting us know. And be sure to let us know how you feel about what may be sad news for many fans in the forums as well.
As usual Jtprime17 has found us some new listings for figures with no context to explain them, in this case it's "Swapticon". The prevailing theory is that they're some sort of modular figures that can swap parts among each other, perhaps a spiritual successor to the long defunct Hero Mashers line from 2014. Another theory is that these are similar to the Beast Combiners figures from the Rise of the Beasts movie line since all appear to be two packs. But what's getting the most attention isn't the mystery concept but the lineup and includes Clench packed with Nemesis Prime.
With nothing else to really say about this line here's the listings that have been uncovered.

We're still a few days away from the official reveal of MP-60 Ginrai and MPG-09 Super Ginrai on April 10, but a new batch of solicitation images have surfaced. Coming via HK retailer HobbyLand (via TFW2005) the new images are not just clearer but also include more looks at the figures and the accessories they both come with. Of note is replacement red eye lenses for Super Ginrai to give him toy accurate eyes, as well as some additional effect parts. Pre-orders will likely open the same day as the full reveal and both will be released in December. Apparently, thanks to some counting system, MP-60 is actually the 100th MP release and the instruction will include a book to commemorate the milestone (that's the blue box in the bottom corner of the last image).
Do the new pictures change your feelings for these figures? Do you plan on buying one, both or neither? Let us know in the Seibertron Energon Pub Forums!
One of the worst kept secrets in the Legacy line has finally been revealed thanks to users ZetcaReturns and ZipperMan29x over on TFW2005. Even without leaked listings showing this figure was coming in wave 3 it was obvious to anyone that took a quick glance at Legacy Evolution Shadow Striker that she was a pre-tool of Robots in Disguise Universe Sideburn. Unfortunately, unlike the recent trend of making shared tools of two different characters within the same line stand out by changing things up a bit, the only tooling difference between Sideburn and Shadow Striker is the heads. If you were hoping for at least a more realistic looking front end to the car that's unfortunately not happening.
Sideburn will be coming in the summer alongside Cybertron Hot Shot, Infernac Nucleus, a refresh of Strongarm, Cybertron Vector Prime and Armada Galvatron.
If you've got pre-orders out for Target's exclusive Studio Series 86 Blaster or Legacy United Origin Wheeljack then watch your mail because those two are showing up at homes this week! And if you didn't pre-order and want to take a chance at finding them in stores then your gamble may pay off. Thanks to our own Seibertronian TF-fan kev777 we've got our first in store sighting for both figures. Pretty fast turnaround when it was less than two weeks ago that pre-orders for Wheeljack opened up and less than a month for Blaster. And the best part is that the sighting photos shows Generations Voyagers are currently at a reduced price of $29.99! Not yet verified to be the effective price for either Target exclusive, but with United wave 2 Voyagers beginning to show up in stores it may be a good time to do a little hunting!
