I knew it, My theory was that the june release date was a smokesceen for the real release date because last year people were receiving movie toys before they put them on shelves. The Megatron figure looks so cool I wish they release him over here very soon.

I really dont care, as long as I can have me some Animated toys!

yeah Im the same just wanna get some of those figures like voyager earth prime and starscream...and lockdown...

although I may get earth megs and cybertron megs too =)

I'll wait to see his alt mode & a better image of his robot mode before passing judgement(deciding to purchase or not)

Isn't the Fusion Cannon supposed to be on the other hand?

lol - notice how, between cuts, they must've tried and failed to transform Optimus.

The funny thing is, before the female reporter messes with the green guy and removes the purple helmet, green guy and Megs are standing right next to each other, and if you pause the video while the camera is looking straight at both of them, then you can tell that they are the same size. Other angles make Megs look a bit bigger, but I would bet that the green guy (either Lugnut or Bulkhead), Megs, and Prime are all either Ultra or Leader size.

You can also see, after the first edit, the chick has tried to transform Prime, and given up. But when her butt gets out of the way, you can see Prime's axe on the table behind her, to the left of the screen, and the axe is freakin' huge! It looks about as big as the reporter's hand! You can also see it again right before the Transformers section of this vid ends.

Actually, no, I take back green guy, Megs, and Prime being the same size. When Prime is laying there, half transformed, he STILL looks bigger than green guy and Megs. If green guy is voyager Lugnut, then I would say that Megs is Earth voyager Megs. And I know that Prime is a bit closer to the camera, but he doesn't seem THAT much closer to account for just HOW MUCH bigger he looks when compared to the other two.

I'm REALLY wondering if we're gonna end up with at least a few Leader-sized figures.

Optimus in video: Voyager Class Earth Mode Optimus Prime. (we've seen the proto, same exact figure.)

Megatron in video: Voyager Class Earth Mode Megatron.

Green guy in video: Voyager Class Bulkhead (all we've seen is Earth Mode.)

Why isn't BulkHead standing?

If you watch the video, the girl actually knocks him over.

theres no way that thats a voyager prime it looks way too big compared to the others...I just dont know the only thing I can think of is its something like a leader class....I mean compare it to the voyager earth megs...

Last I checked (someone correct me if I'm wrong) we're not getting Leader Class figures in the Animated line.

It's Voyager Class Prime, the figures and their scale are completely out of whack.

I think you might be right. Unless the Megatron's actually deluxe.

To be honest, I'm a little disappointed. I was hoping there'd be no leader class figures in this line. I'd prefer if they saved the bigger class sizes for characters that are genuinely huge.

Yeah I don't think megs is a deluxe well I hope not lol doesn't appear to be but as Ive said we need more detailed pics to really decide that...

and I'm 100% with yah I don't like leader class I think their over kill and the simplicity of these animated designs don't warrant it....

the only large figure I like is Primus for the obvious reasons of bein the Tformers god and Cybertron itself lol

That's a good point, the simplicity of Animated style doesn't really lend itself to the bigger size classes.

If anything, I'd like to see a return of the scout class for some figures. But I miss the old G1 idea, where anything really big literally transformed into a city or something.

I took a screenshot of Prime's axe.



That's a BIG axe.

theres something about the camera that warps the perspective, when the little pets sets are shown i notice a kind of fish eye lens effect????? maybe its just me. im guessing thats voyager OP but he looks way bigger than toys he is only slightly ahead of.

You are correct sir. It's the perspective and that's all it is. The only remaining constant in all of this is that Bulkhead is small and overpriced for what he is. lol

With all due respect, Autobot032, I think you're wrong. There MIGHT be Leaders in Animated. I think Ultra Magnus, since he's Supreme Commander of Cybertron, as well as having a large alt mode, could easily be a Leader class figure.

However, I think the Optimus in this video is the "Command and Roll Out" Optimus. Like Ultimate Movie Bumblebee, he's bigger, but he's not Leader class because he's not part of the regular line, he's just an extra.

Finally, that Bulkhead is definately NOT the voyager Bulkhead we've seen before. The feet and arms are different. I'm not sure what version of Bulkhead this is, there's lots of speculation, but I am absolutely sure that at some point in the future it will be revealed that this is a different Bulkhead than voyager Bulkhead.

According to TFW, the BotCon panel said Animated would consist only of Deluxes and Voyagers.

Now, there is an Ultimate Class Optimus due out (like Bumblebee, supposedly self transforms, etc.) and the one in the video might be that Prime.

But no, after Googling and getting that piece of info from TFW...no Leader Class, no Ultra Class in Animated. Deluxe and Voyager, only.

And if there is a different version of Bulkhead (which I think we're just seeing one that's mistransformed, I mean, this is Hasbro we're talking about...) it would be the Cybertron Mode. So far he's yet to make an appearance in that form.

So I dunno what to tell ya, other than stick to your guns.

EDIT: I watched the video again, slowly. Zoomed in even.

I stand corrected on two things.

1.) That is the Ultimate Class Optimus Prime (you can tell by his size and his axe. Bumblebee's alt mode was about the same size and he's Ultimate as well.)

2.) I'm almost 100% sure that is Decepticon Lugnut standing next to Megatron. (The purple on the head, odd hands.) If it is Bulkhead, however, my guess would be a Cybertron Mode.

I'm kinda hoping the guy's wrong about them being due out any time now.

1.) I can't afford 'em right now.
2.) I still haven't completed the Movie line. =\

Meant to edit my above post, not start a new one.

Can't remove this one, could someone delete this? Thank you in advance.

Hey did Bulkhead turn those things on his back into a chair like in the Total Meltdown episode?

I rather hope they haven't produced a second Bulkhead figure. One is enough. But it looks like they may well have done.



It could be Lugnut in the picture, except Lugnut is supposed to be purple and have 2-toed feet. Lugnut also seems to have broader shoulders than what we have here, and I can't make out that split cockpit chest in the CNN pictures.

There's always the possibility they have part of it back to front.


Incidently those Bumblebee and Ironhide movie blasters are in the latest Argos catalogue, so maybe those are the ones that he meant will be in the shops soon.

Looking at the prototype figure shot and the images from the interview Im almost positive that that is bulkhead with new weapons and whatnot more of a voyager figure than the earlier one definitely more accessories and features then a basic....But back to my earlier statement thats definitely not lugnut just look at the prototype grey no head image and the interview pics and you can see it...

Maybe it's not Bulkhead but a constucticion but I doubt it
