We have some pretty big news, both for movies and toys. We FINALLY have images of one of the more complex toys of a Rise of the Beasts character, Airazor. It is deluxe class BUT we do not know if it is mainline deluxe class (so part of the actual movie line) OR if it is from the Studio Series line. The person who posted the images here is guessing Studio Series but we do not know yet. This does also give us a first look at what was said a year ago, that the Maximals would have a rusted mechanical look to them, almost steampunkish. We see those details here in the hawk mode which is a mix of organic and mechanical parts. While the body has similar details we've come to expect from live action/bayverse designs, the face looks much more smooth than usual. You can see all the images below, enjoy!

Fingers crossed for a head swap to Beast Machines Silverbolt. Transformation seems pretty close, feather weapons are pretty close, and the beast's head isn't even totally off.

I am a big beast transformer fan and even I thought that at first glance. This feels promising for the rest of the line.

I agree and I really don't like beastformers. Both modes look good.

Damn!.... That looks really nice. I like the choice to make the wings out of the legs, streamlines the hawk a bit more.
Definitely a picker-upper. Totally not a movie-verse design.
Being one of the few people that enjoyed the Kingdom mold, Skywarp II and Terrorsaur, this one is quite an improvement.
Definitely liking this style. Can't wait for the rest of the maximals. Hopefully Primal turns out this good.

Perfection.
This is more proof that designs can look like the original and still get all that new modern design junk all the bay fans are talking about. I like this, hopefully all the designs will be as good! Could even consider skipping kingdom for this!

A bit screwy in bird mode but the cybernetic look kinda makes the screws less ugly. Not sure if I like the beastmodes being that way but if its a beatmachines throwback rather than breastwars maybe it will work.
I do like the robot head design though, a big improvement over most of the other live action bot heads. Plus the figure seems to fit in well with generations stuff and not look out of place so that's a bonus too.

As a life-long Beast Wars fan and a supporter of the live-action movies, I should be more hyped to see this Airazor than I actually am. It looks fine, it's not a bad figure, the falcon mode looks a lot better than Kingdom Airazor at least, but it hasn't got me any more excited for Rise of the Beasts or its toyline. It just looks a bit mid to me, but I am glad that more Maximal designs from the movie are finally getting out there.

Hot damn, that looks great. Good combination of movie asthetic with the original design. can't wait to get a look at the rest of the characters.
And makes me even more hopeful for the film.

I like that mold a lot. It may not be realistic in hawk mode, but it can do things that this one can't like fold the wings. The new figure has a much more realistic proportioned hawk body, but the wings are too thick (acceptable for a Cybertronian bird) and it can only move slightly at the wing "shoulders" and legs. Great looking figure, probably wouldn't be as nice on a realistic Beast Wars Airrazor like the Kingdom figure.
That said, this feels like a blueprint for a future MP Airrazor if one were in the works.
Shame there's no shot from behind, the rear portion of the wings are part of the torso, not the legs and articulated to be deployed in bot mode.

There you go:
Not the prettiest back, but I've seen worst.
And I'm sure the thickness of the backpack will be kept to a minimum.

A knock off ignoring said copyright info might be able to fix that...in a year or two.
Or maybe Reprolabls can work some magic.
Regardless, this toy does have me genuinely excited for the beast designs in this movie.

Still a shame, since the underside of the feathers clearly weren't sculpted with that later addition in mind. It's like they made the sculpt SO good there wasn't any place left to plonk that info.

I too thought the Kingdom Airazor toy was perfectly fine (NOT the Terrorsaur remold though) and I have it now in the 4 different iterations. BUT this transformation would have been much better for it. It would have given us a far more toon accurate airazor sine it mass shifts her hawk wings by most of it disappearing into her legs.

The loose wings popping off is something I really wish they had fixed for the Buzzworthy Bumblebee version, but alas, they did not. And I fear that they will be just as loose, if not moreso, on the rumored upcoming Fractyl version.blackeyedprime wrote:-Kanrabat- wrote:My only true complaint would be about his arm spikes.

Dang, that Airazor looks really sharp. I wish she was just a little more steampunk and maybe a bit more greeble on the face (just looks too smooth for a movie figure), but she looks good.
She is a good start to the movie beast designs. I cannot wait to put them next to other figure figures. I am quite happy with that idea in my mind.
Now, speaking of other movie figures. I know it's a throwaway alt mode, but the idea of a Prime transforming into a Cybertronian Destroyer, let along this design of Destroyer, is cool to me and I am one of those that like this alt mode. It is fun for me

Took a while to figure out how to get his face on, but I liked how they implemented his arm struts, the ball joint on the forearms actually pivot for additional clearance, it definitely feels like it was thought out.

Finally got my hands on Galvatron, and damn, it is honestly a really good figure. Transformation is pretty complicated but not bad, and despite the rear being a bit messy he still somehow manages to create a solid truck mode. Something was pretty funny seeing this guy on the shelf next to SS86 Arcee, seeing as how Galvatron just exploded into Transformium to change forms yet this toy cleans up a lot better than her
In all seriousness I am very happy to have picked him up and I may display him next to my Kingdom Galvatron.

Have to agree that is one of the best birdbots I've ever seen and I'm not that big a fan of Beastformers in general. Definitely improving over time with what they can do.

Really love that Airazor design: detailed without being cluttered, mixing the anatomy of the original bot-mode with the cyborg design of the Transmetal, and the bird mode looks awesome! The curious part for me is the face, since it's a lot less detailed than usual for the movies; maybe the Maximals have the metal-sikn look the cartoon and comics usually have, given they're somewhat technorganic?
A pity no store in my city seem to stock on Transformers unless there's an ongoing movie/series. Guess I'll have to wait till next year for more Studio Series...

New arrivals are here! Crosshairs is set to arrive on Tuesday.
Laserbeak is surprisingly good, he's like an upgraded DOTM Cyberverse Bee! Articulation is surprisingly good given the size, sculpted detail is good, and it's cool to have a 3mm version of Bee's plasma cannon!
Also, something fun I noticed, they must have based Laserbeak off of the CAD file for SS DOTM Bumblebee because he has Bumblebee's weapon storage tabs on the back near the exhaust pipes! (and while you can't see it at that angle, you can see 4 support struts for the spoiler on the back of Laserbeak like the SS figure, while the actual Camaro has 2.)
Hot Rod is spectacular, the engineering for the chest and lower legs/feet is pretty insane, especially for a deluxe. Articulation and detail is great, it's easily one of the best deluxes of the line!

I spot something that is desperately in need of a coat of paint.

Really cool!
I am hoping to buy them in stock at Pulse this Friday, paypal credit at holiday time is a blessing.
Laserbeak should be here shortly though! I am excited for him!

Gotcha covered! I have Laserbeak's alt painted up too, but I'm going to have to wait a bit to get the paint I need to finish robot mode.

I was so deeply dissatisfied with LaserBeak I returned him It was the lack of tabbing together in robot mode, wonky looking arms and the legs banging into the back panels constantly, glad other people are enjoying him! (I also got Rumble (blue) that day and he was pretty fun tho)

Thanks! After working on a few SS Bumblebees I wanted to get the DOTM version as accurate as I could, so I added some new details like the silver trim around the taillights!

Too bad we'll never get a proper office printer/Evil Bird version of Laserbeak

Just finished working on KSI Sentry! I tried mapping the details from the Trax drone onto this guy, with some other details to complement the Stinger mold. I'll have to get some pics with Galvatron soon!
I do like this figure but I hope we see some proper KSI Trax drones in the future!
