In package images have been posted on the Chinese microblog, Hamatoys, of the Optimus Prime & Megatron Cyberverse Playsets as well as the Robo Power Bash Bots sets Bumblebee vs. Megatron & Optimus Prime vs. Starscream. As usual the blog is in Chinese and requires registration, so the images have been mirrored below.

The Optimus Prime and Megatron Cyberverse sets both feature trailers that can be transformed into bases and armor upgrades for the robot figures.

The Robo Power Bash Bot sets appear to be more kid focused and feature "Smash and Bash" action. The figures "battle" by being rammed into one another with one of the robots being ejected.

I would love for Hasbro to do a Motormaster repaint of Prime and his base mode. Just makes to much sense to me! Though, I doubt any of these will be worthwhile repainting in the long run. Oh well, one can hope!

Are these Voyager class? I'm beginning to like Megatron's look.....

Not sure, but I would say that they DON'T follow standard classifications...

I would guess Deluxe size though.

Now that is how prime should be done. Megatron looks pretty cool too but theres no way in hell im calling him megatron but thats nothing new been renaming bayformer figures since the first movie, hope this is the last movie cause im running out of names.

Motormaster was the first thing I thought of when I saw that base mode. I doubt Hasbro will give us that particular repaint but you can bet that more than one of our top notch Kitbashing masters will have this thing overhauled the day these hit the shelves.
The Prime base looks pretty decent. If I pick this one up I doubt it will be in its combined form more than once though. I just don't like the look of Optimus in his armored mode in any of the pictures I've seen.
Megatron is a maybe but I'll have to get one in hand and take a really good look at it first. I'm still slow to warm up to the idea of him as a tanker truck.

I don't know for sure, but i thought i heard that 'commander' class is to legends class in the same way that voyager was to deluxe.

I'm waiting for the gold repaint of the ark before i buy any of these. Once bitten twice shy, thanks PCC.

Ugh, terrible thought of PCC huffer repainted into OP for that cyberverse mold just popped into my head. don't get me wrong, i like the huffer, its the concept of prime being a huffer repaint that bothered me.

Cyberverse definitely has my interest. Can't wait to see some more pics of them out of the boxes.

That would make a lot of sense. I would love to have some legends setup on a base with the larger Prime/Megs running the show!

I think I'll just stick with the Cyberverse stuff this time around. They have yet to disappoint.

I definitely like Megatron's jet armor better than Optimus's assault mode, though a Legends/Scout WITH a trailer is awesome regardless, let alone TWO of them. That transform into *two* other modes. =P~

Megatron kind of looks odd without that cape/hood. One shouldn't be hard to make, just some (thin) cloth, I'd think.

I'll get Prime and Megs just for the alt modes with trailers.

cyberverse.... its action masters.. the way it should have been done. I loved my actionmaster bases and weapons, but the somewhat cartoon accurate robots didnt transform, so most of my old actin master vehicles got integrated into g i joe. Cobra commander was pimpin in megatrons tank.

so im realy digging the cyberverse concept. just hope they branch off and do more then just movieverse.

While not sure if I'll get into the Cyberverse stuff or not, I'm happy to see that these are base and ACTION FIGURES more like the old micromaster bases or actionmaster sets (NOW WITH TRANSFORMATION ACTION!) than, say... those crapass Beast Wars playsets.

This new Cyberverse series looks pretty interesting.
I'll look into it when more pictures are released.

I'm liking the Cyberverse stuff too.

I like the idea of a mixed legends/scout class as a line. As it is I only have a few legends guys, but with a bit more size variety to a line it will make the whole concept a lot better.

Throw in bases and playsets, and you have a really cool concept!

When I scaled back my TFA stuff, I based what I kept around on the Activators size, which is pretty close to scout size. For the Autobots, Prime and Ratchet Activators were perfect, and I went with Legends Bee and Prowl, and rounded out the team with Voyager Bulkhead and the Deluxe Dinobots. They scale perfectly!

I'm hoping Cyberverse stuff will allow the same kind of groupings.

I would also like to see this concept applied to more than just the movie-verse.

I think the Cyberverse sets look pretty cool. As far as DOTM goes, I'll probably buy more of them than the standard figures. I think I'd rather have the Cyberverse Megatron than the Voyager version we've seen.
