The biggest surprise from yesterday's article on IGN showing the new Transformers Earthrise figures was Ironworks. The name being connected to the Micromaster base was a good clue but we never thought it would mean that actual base becoming a robot. We have an extra image of that newly revealed toy which shows just how modular it is. We knew it was a partsformer who could disassemble from a base and become a robot but now we see that it is modular and the base can be reconnected in more than just one. That means that the possibilities will be nearly endless once we get more of these figures into the mix. Below you will see that new image coming from Hasbro as well as the other mages we got. Let us know if you are excited for this guy and be sure to watch the live stream from NYCC to see the new reveals. You can click here to get all the details on the scheduling.
Thanks to the TFWiki Twitter page, we have some new official images to share with you for the upcoming Transformers Generations Selects Hot Shot and Cromar!
These new images give us a nice clear look at these 2 new Selects releases. Hot Shot is a new head retool of the Wave 1 Hound figure, and is based on his Cybertron Defense body from Transformers Cybertron. Cromar is a new head retool of the Wave 2 Sixgun figure, and is the final of the 3 Powerdashers to receive official images.
Both of these figures will be available from the Entertainment Earth booth during New York Comic Con this coming weekend, and will presumably go up for sale following the Con as well.
Check out the images below, and let us know what you think of them in the comments section below!
Coming just days ahead of New York Comic Con 2019, we have our first look at the follow up line to War for Cybertron: Siege! Several Seibertronians have sent us a link to an article on IGN which gives us the first renders of the new toys. Titled "War for Cybertron: Earthrise", the first figures to be revealed for the line show off all size classes beginning with none other than Optimus Prime himself, in the Leader Class! Optimus looks to possibly be a retool of his Siege Voyager Class figure, but it's not known for sure at this time whether or not that is the case, or if he's an all new mold. Regardless, we can see a deco free of battle damage, which is sure to please fans who like a cleaner look.
In keeping with the trend of Siege Leader Class figures, this figure appears to be a Voyager size figure with additional accessories and/ or armor, and in this case, it's Prime's iconic trailer! He also features a gun and shield.
While Roller is not included with this iteration of Prime and his trailer, it does come with the Combat Deck, doubling as a repair bay.
Moving along, we have confirmation of three figures that were leaked in a listing last week, the first of which is Voyager Class Grapple!
Continuing on to Deluxe Class, we have something of a new character, Ironworks! Formerly a Micromaster base, Ironworks has been given a robot mode, and looks to be a similar style to the Weaponizers of the Siege line, being able to be taken apart to be rearranged into base mode. Maybe this will be a big feature of the upcoming line? And if I'm not mistaken, it looks like Ironworks has connectors that will allow connections to base modes of figures from previous lines...
Being that Ironworks was a Micromaster base, it seems only fitting to keep including Micromasters in Earthrise as well! Big Daddy and his buddy Trip-Up are heading up the Hot Rod patrol.
So there you have it for the first glimpse of Transformers War for Cybertron: Earthrise! No doubt we'll see at least a few more reveals at NYCC 2019 this weekend, hopefully some Decepticons among them.
What do you think, fellow Cybertronians? Are you excited about this new line and these new figures? Please let us know below, and feel free to speculate away on what the next figures will be!
New York Comic Con (NYCC) 2019 is coming soon. There will be a live Transformers panel. However, please be aware, that as with other years, it won't be a Power Point presentation with loads of reveals. This panel is usually just people talking to eachother with a handful of toys brought out, some which are currently already on shelves. It's usually there that we get hints to next year's Titan as well. But we will get some new reveals for sure.
You can check out the schedule here where you will also be available to stream the panel. It is Thursday, October 3, at
11:30 AM ET.

Thanks to a heads up from Jtprime17, we have word that the recently leaked Transformers Generations Selects Hot Shot figure might be available at New York Comic Con!
Hot Shot, who is a head retool of the Transformers War for Cybertron Siege Hound, has long been rumored to be coming at some point in time, and now that we know he exists, it seems as though he will be at New York Comic Con. This information originates from Entertainment Earth, who will be the ones potentially selling Hot Shot at New York Comic Con. The reason this is not confirmed yet is because the article where Entertainment Earth talks about the NYCC exclusives doesn't name Hot Shot specifically, but he does show up in a small banner on the page. It is very likely he will be available, but we are not quite confirming it yet.
Check out the banner below, and let us know what you think in the comments section below!

We're also giving you our interview with the Transformers Brand Team Hasbro's Senior Design Manager John Warden and Hasbro's Marketing Director Ben Montano. Our very own head Seibertronian Ryan Yzquierdo was on the scene to interview the two gentlemen in front of the Unicron prototype itself. But they don't just talk about Unicron, they also discuss the Studio Series and the recent G1 reissues. Here's some highlights from the interview.
- They go over the challenges of converting a sphere like a puzzle into the familiar devourer of worlds, and some of the logistics of the Haslab crowdfunding project.
- They also touch on the prioritization of features focusing on articulation such as in the fingers and eyes in place of electronic light up or sound features.
- They also touch on the vintage G1 reissues such as the Dino cassettes and The Sonic Iconic, everyone's favorite who raves it, Soundwave!
- They remind us that Blaster and Astrotrain are still coming down the tracks so keep your optics focused on those WalMarts Seibertronians.
- John states very seriously about listing Unicron in an official size class, name yet to be determined.
- The Studio Series is also discussed, or the lack thereof. They say they fully intend to continue with the line and wanted to debut some of their newer products but didn't want the SDCC2019 to be too busy given all the other Siege reveals let alone Unicron. They do mention wanting to wait to show the finalized Studio Series Devastator once all the individual toys are finalized and revealed. They talk about how the gestalt mode is not just tall, but deep and extremely bulky. Very much a monster! A very different type of combiner than we've seen before.
Check out the video for the full interview. It's always a pleasure to hear people who are so passionate about the brand guiding its current vision.
Aside from when, where, and how much, the main question asked after Hasbro revealed their latest Transformers Studio Series toys at Fan Expo 2019 was "where do Scavenger's threads go in alt mode?". Well, thanks to Victinoko who reached out to us with some images they took, we now know. The big treads we see in robot mode are within the alt mode, int he centre. They are very obvious with a view of the toy from the top. We have other images, one being of Shockwave from the top which is far from obvious (granted, he never did Transform in the movies). There has been a big discussion on retools here since some parts are shared among the toys, however please remember that with recent examples, like Titans Return Blur and Chromedome, sharing a common piece does not mean that a toy can't also be a unique experience all the same. With advanced toy making techniques and basing some toys on a similar CAD model, it may be time to retire the conception of retool, at least pertaining to examples like the leader Shockwave and voyager Megatron found below.
Thanks to posts on Instagram, we have images of the newly revealed toys on display at Fan Expo Canada. We can get a better look at Shockwave, Mixmaster, the firs movie Megatron and others. We get a really good look at the alt mode of the later, which looks well painted. Though these are samples so the final product may not have that paint (which has happened before). The chest for Megatron seems identical to the ROTF version. These can all be preordered right now at the online collectables store of your choice.
