Hasbro has just finished their Transformers Fan First Friday livestream on YouTube (which you can view below). We have screenshots in a gallery that showcases all of the reveals and pictures for you!
This livestream was mainly focused on the 35th Anniversary of The Transformers: The Movie, and as such, they showed off the 35th anniversary editions of the movie, in Steelbook and 4K UHD versions, both of which feature artwork from acclaimed pop culture artist Matt Ferguson (www.cakesandcomics.com). The Steelbook will be available to preorder via Shout Factory's website starting on Monday, May 24th, and the 4K version will be available later this summer.
Next up, they officially revealed Studio Series 86-07 Leader Class Slug with Daniel Witwicky! While his existence was known for weeks, with even video reviews popping up, we did get to see his packaging, and he'll come with the same Sharkticon Pit backdrop as Grimlock.
And as you can see from that last picture, we're also getting Deluxe Class Sharkticon Gnaw! Studio Series 86-08, Deluxe Class Gnaw (now properly labeled as a Quintesson) is far more screen accurate than any previous version, and this new-mold figure includes his tail mace, and in a nod to his 1986 toy, his G1-styled gun is also included. Also, a comparison with his Titans Return incarnation was shown, and we can see that he's significantly bigger.
Next up was last week's leaked figure, Voyager Class Wreck-Gar! Many fans will be very pleased to know that he can, indeed, ride himself! Apologies for not getting a clearer shot, but it was demonstrated that not only can the Voyager Wreck-Gar ride himself, but Deluxe Class figures can also ride him. His packaging also showcases the Planet of Junk backdrop.
And the final reveal of the livestream was Shattered Glass Starscream! Using the Siege tetrajet mold in SG Starscream's traditional colors (inspired by G1 Jetfire), he also includes a sword accessory that can split into two separate swords.
In addition to the reveals above, Hasbro also has a special promo code to get 30% off apparel right now. Just use the code ISTILLFUNCTION to take advantage of this special.
So what do you think? Are you excited to add to your Studio Series 86 collection? Looking forward to adding another heroic Decepticon to your ranks? All the toys revealed will be available to preorder at 1PM EST on Hasbro Pulse.
The Seibertron.com Twincast / Podcast is back with a yellow stream of fury as Bumblebee ScottyP, Bumblebee Megatronus, and Bumblebee Mr Starscream tackle the latest Transformers news, wordplays, and catch phrases.
Episode #276 “Whoops! All Bumblebees” is available directly and in our RSS Feed, and should appear on Apple Podcasts, Stitcher Radio and many other Podcatcher sites within 24 to 48 hours of when you see this news post.
Here's what we discuss in this episode:
We start with the return of differentiated Takara product within a trojan horse: the Premium Finish line. The initials 'PF' may or may not confer glory on one of our crew members.
Amazon is kicking off another burdensomely named exclusive subline: War For Cybertron Kingdom Battle Across Time Collection, starting with Grimlock and Mirage. Available here and on Pulse.
Bot Bots are back with a vengeance... and media support. Does the Twincast think this unique entry into the Transformers mythos will endure this time around?
Special Topic: what are some Transformers you think are universally, or near to it as possible, thought of as cool, awesome, and fun by the fandom at large?
Listener Questions from D-Maximal_Prime: Hw committed are you to completing teams in this hobby, toy wise? If you could choose your favorite type of pretender concept (human, monster, beast, vehicle, etc.), which would it be?
Bragging rights! What has everyone gotten since last time? [WHOOPS! ALL BUMBLEBEES]

The Seibertron.com Twincast / Podcast is back as our host ScottyP and motley crew Megatronus and Rotorostorm stumble their way through the Transformers news of the day - including some grainy reveals, vague press releases, and questionable rumors.
Episode #271 “Meh-pisode” is available directly and in our RSS Feed, and should appear on Apple Podcasts, Stitcher Radio and many other Podcatcher sites within 24 to 48 hours of when you see this news post.
Here's what we discuss in this episode:
The long rumored Commander Class Rodimus prime is revealed. Kinda. Sorta... but that's not going to stop us from talking about it.
New images of MPM12 Bumblebee Movie Optimus Prime are up: it's meh. The cast gets into silly things like design philosophy and line comparisons, all in the service of avoiding the question: are we expecting too much from this toy?
Naturally, we transition to prototype images of Masterpiece Skids, who looks amazeballs, and is clearly a deviation from the recent trend of Sunbow accuracy.
Two new cartoons have been announced as part of a partnership between Hasbro's eOne and Nickelodeon: Bot Bots and something entirely vague and probably different. Will Hasbro finally achieve total brand awareness??
Super7's Transformers Ultimates line has announced waves 2 & 3, with a variety of interesting choices, including Pretenders, Dino-mode Grimlock, and IDW Tarn. Have they piqued our interest? Yes. Yes they have.
We end the show as we always do - with a round of bragging rights. What have we all acquired since last time?

Greetings Seibertronians! Feeling a bit low? Life got you down? Do you know what you need? Grimlock dressed as a pirate and singing a sea shanty to match!
Courtesy of Hasbro Pulse on Instagram comes this charming stop motion animation featuring Masterpiece Grimlock, singing away (even includes a disclaimer telling us that the toy doesn't actually sing, and that only moves and sings due to special effects). The lyrics themselves contain plenty of nods to Transformers, and are even presented on screen for you to join in via karaoke.

Episode #269 “Me Grimlock, Not Clickbait!” is available directly and in our RSS Feed, and should appear on Apple Podcasts, Stitcher Radio and many other Podcatcher sites within 24 to 48 hours of when you see this news post.
Approximately 30 days into the year with what feels like 365 purchases made so far, the gang remains in high spirits if empty wallets.
Here's what we discuss in this episode:
This episode starts off with an analysis of potential Beast Wars movie possibilities before diving headlong into the depths of the internet's clickbait industry. Which amazing prediction will end up on the top of our list? Who knows, but number 3 will definitely surprise you.
Cyberverse soldiers on...join us for a little speculation about the future of Dinobots in Season 4.
Kingdom, Studio 86, and other good stuff well in hand and absolutely worth the price of admission!
Finally, we pontificate on a listener question about where we go with our favorite toy line post-Kingdom
As always stay tuned in towards the end to hear about our newest purchases and acquisitions...it's not all Kingdom and Studio up in here for this round of bragging rights.

With the popularity of Virtual Reality (VR) gaming on the rise, it was only natural that someone would find a way to create a VR experience that involves our favorite shape-shifting robots. That somebody is game studio Minority Media. Founded in 2010 in Canada, Minority Media develops video games for all different types of platforms, and this new game Transformers: Invasion VR, allows you to aid the Autobots in their quest to prevent a Decepticon takeover.
TRANSFORMERS: VR Invasion delivers collaborative gameplay that enables guests to be part of the liberation squad of humans fighting alongside well-known Autobots like Optimus Prime and Bumblebee, as well as Grimlock, the leader of the Dinobots powerful strike squad. Players enter epic battles against sworn enemies Megatron and Soundwave and repel non-stop swarms of Insecticons. Failure is not an option in this high-stakes mission to stop an all-out invasion by the Decepticons.
This game actually isn't the first VR game Minority has developed for the Transformers brand. The first one, Transformers: Battle Arena, came out in November 2019. While Invasion VR doesn't currently have a release date, it is expected to be at very limited locations to begin with; currently, Kalahari Resort in Poconos, PA, Airway Fun Center in Kalamazoo, MI and Compass Entertainment in Irvington, VA are the only US entertainment venues scheduled to get the game at first. Select Kingpin Bowling locations in Australia well also be hosting the game.
The designs in this game seem to be based off the Cyberverse designs, judging from how Bumblebee, Soundwave and Grimlock appear.
What do you think about this project? Have you tried Transformers: Battle Arena? Let us know in the Energon Pub and stay tuned to Seibertron for all the latest news and reviews!
The Seibertron.com Twincast / Podcast is back as our host ScottyP and chuckleheads Mr. Starscream and Megatronus lark through the latest Transformers news and... manga? Think about packaging, nomenclature and Headmasters while this episode's topics transform from jokes to serious and back again in more new fun Transformers podcast listening for your week.
Episode #262 “Generational Taxonomy” is available directly and in our RSS Feed, and should appear on Apple Podcasts, Stitcher Radio and many other Podcatcher sites within 24 to 48 hours of when you see this news post.
Here's what we discuss in this episode:
Walmart is getting exclusive redecos of Titans Return Headmasters with G1 style packaging. Intriguing, to say the least - but where do these fit into our collections?
More exclusives on the block: Voyager Thrust and Deluxe Runabout at Target, and Galactic Odyessey Micromasters at Amazon. Who got what, and what's worth the hunt?
Studio Series is looking a bit retro with the '86 Movie subline - but the toys are looking sharp. We discuss screen accuracy, engineering, and whether we finally have a reason to use those backdrops.
We quickly mention the amazing Beast Wars Beast Generations Mook, and the preview pages that touch on the comprehensiveness of this volume.
Itching for Manga? So is the Twincast! ScottyP walks us through Volume 3 and some of the (few, sparing) differentiations from G1. Another excellent read worth the small investment.
We close out this episode with an entertaining round of bragging rights. Enjoy!

The Seibertron.com Twincast / Podcast returns with another week of wild predictions and irresponsible statements. The dynamic duo ScottyP and Megatronus are back, trying to avoid dead air like the floor is lava!
It was the shot heard around the world: the rumors that '86 The Transformers: The Movie toys would be included in Studio Series. ScottyP and Megatronus countenance this strange and exciting news with trademark speculation.
Movie Masterpiece Ratchet images are here, and they are: acceptable. In line with expectations. Meet the bar. An all around we-will-buy-it-to-complete-the-2007-lineup-duh. Hopefully they fix the colors.
Netflix toys have been acquired with the latest Wal-Mart reset, and they rock - get Best Megatron before he's gone!
Time for some listener questions. Our very own D-Max asks: "The alternity figures, how worth it is it to pursue them? do you guys have any? What are your overall thoughts on them?"
He follows up with: "Have you ever had a time where you went to a friends, and either saw or bought a figure from them that led to a whole new rabbit hole that you went down and enjoyed?"
We close out this episode as we often do, with a round of bragging rights.
I was dead serious about getting him before he's gone.
