Anyway, nice fan-made dragon mode sir. Works better than the official one.

whaaa? I'm scared! I think I'm gonna star screaming if that happens! Iron hide in a corner and not come out anymore.

I kinda like the idea of Optimus being a serpentine dragon like the official mode attempted to be, so if I ever get this (and that's a big if), I'm gonna try taking a stab at making a fanmade serpentine dragon mode, no matter how wonky it'd still look.

You are after my own heart, Siger.


But I'm going to start dragon this thread back on track, though, no more derailings.

OK OK, seriously though this set looks garbagio. You can't just slap an Optimus head on any robot body and call it OP... or can you? They should retool this and make it a Power Ranger set. The colors and combine form look all matches PR criterion already.

Except for the legal issues that would prevent that from happening. Namely that this is a TakaraTomy creation and Power Rangers is owned by Bandai, a completely diffferent and rival company. Someone would likely sue the other if they tried to do that.

I have this Optimus and really dig the **** out of him.

That wasn't a real suggestion lol

ABOMINATION!!!!!!

I just wanted to say that. Not throwing shade on this set, I want to like it but I just don't at this time. Nice concept though.

We've been seeing reports of these figures showing everywhere but in mainland US - Seibertron was lucky enough to get his photographer's hands on them. He has provided us with yet another astonishing set of galleries. Feast your eyes below on the later wave of Transformers Prime Beast Hunters Cyberverse Commanders: Unicron Megatron, Bludgeon and Ultra Magnus. Unicron Megatron is a repaint of the original Transformers Prime Cyberverse mold. Ultra Magnus is retooled from the Optimus Prime mold. Bludgeon is a repaint and retool of the Shockwave mold. Click on any of the images for the full gallery.


Transformers Prime Beast Hunters Cyberverse Ultra Magnus


















Transformers Prime Beast Hunters Cyberverse Bludgeon














Transformers Prime Beast Hunters Cyberverse Unicron Megatron

I remember when retools were unheard of in Cyberverse. None of the Movie ones had any of that (save adding ports for weapons). UM and Bludgeon look great!
... though I kinda wish Bludgeon was based on BM Scavenger instead. He looks closer to the Vehicon as it is.

Very nice figures

I saw Bludgeon in a Target in Canada. But I'm pretty sure he was approaching 12 bucks. He was at least over 10 bucks. Prices seemed higher in Canada for a long time, but it seems like America is catching up in many ways. On the other hand everything sounds at least a bit more expensive here, without fault. At any rate Bludgeon despite being cool was too expensive

The Magnus looks really good.
That doesn't surprise me as I really like that mold for Optimus as well.

The Bludgeon would be OK if they had done a remold of the gun as well.
With that big arm, the mold still screams "Shockwave" to me. A more traditional arm with a fold away barrel would have been better IMO.

The Megatron is a weak mold, at least for alt mode, and those dorky colors don't help. Not a fan.

I've been avoiding the Prime/BH line like the plague since I basically can count on one hand the figures that have impressed me enough to actually buy them. I'm actually impressed with Magnus and Bludgeon. Been meaning to get the Cyberverse Shockwave so now I'll have to snag him and Bludgeon both. Magnus is actually looking pretty decent so I'm willing to splurge the little bit for him.
As for Megatron... well, you can take one look at that color and conclude for yourself just what I think THAT version resembles.
Two out of three. Not too bad Hasbro. In fact, pretty darn good considering how much I generally dislike the Prime BH line.

Alright, looks good Hasbro.

Now, where's Voyager Bludgeon and Unicron Megs?

Not coming. They never promised us those.

Seibertron.com is pleased to present our latest Transformers Prime gallery, Cybertron Con 2013 Beast Hunters Commander Class Predaking. This figure comes from the Cybertron Con 2013 Exclusive Shockwave's Lab, #6 the Trilling 30 series. The set is basically the same and the SDCC 2013 Exclusive Shockwave's Lab set with the exception of this little guy. The SDCC 2013 version is mainly clear plastic with a little blue here and there, whereas the Cybertron Con version is all orange, mainly translucent. Check out the full gallery by clicking any of the images or links below:

Convention & Club Exclusives Predaking (Shockwave's Lab)

Plasma Predaking is sexy.

A new day, a new gallery! Today's subject? G25 Go Prime from Takara Tomy's Transformers Go! line. Go Prime is a partially translucent redeco of the Thundertron mold from Prime: Robots In Disguise. (One of the last molds of the original Prime main line prior to switching over to Beast Hunters.)

It's not the first time this mold has been reused, either. The first time was another Takara Tomy exclusive, Leo Prime, from the Arms Micron line. (Takara Tomy's main line for Prime, featuring slight remolds based on PRID.)

His Micron partner is a reuse, too. Micron Go is a shark based Micron which originally debuted with Arms Micron Dreadwing. A Micron by the name of Jigu. (You can see both galleries for Dreadwing and Jigu here and here.)

And now, our featured gallery:

Transformers Go! Go Prime

The sensei master of the six Swordbots has arrived.

Could he double as a "black repaint" of Leo Prime? Furthermore, does he have sticker or is it all paint?
