Hasbro Brand Panel Gallery: Transformers Generations Combiner Wars 2016 Upcoming Product Reveals

With the amount of Autobot cars being redone in Combiner Wars, I'm glad I don't need them. This will save me a bunch of money methinks.

However, HOLY COW DOES THAT BRUTICUS LOOK NICE!!!

That Sky Lynx!!!!

Plus Mini Shockwave

Wow those are amazing. That sky lynx, can't say I've ever been a fan but that voyager is really nice.

All of these looks great. The only one I couldn't be assed about is the Battlecore Optimus, or whatever they're calling him. Everything else, I want. Now.

If i didn't know any better i'd almost say, Wreck-gar looks like..... rung.

ScottyP wrote:Sky Lynx, eh? Ya done good, Hasbro. Ya done good. Looks great.

I must ask though: why make him a combiner?! Now we can't stop him boasting at how much more awesome he (thinks he) is! Shame his components are all retools:

Wheeljack: shell retool of Breakdown
Hound: head retool of Swindle, who is a shell retool of Rook
Smokescreen: head retool of Streetwise
Trailbreaker: head retool of Offroad

Sky Lynx will stay separate on my shelf, that's all I'll feed his ego with.

Bruticus looks good, even with Blast Off as a mere jet. No doubt TakaraTomy will made him a Space Shuttle (NO Alpha Bravo retool please!). Pretty clever with reversing Hot Spot for Onslaught, and making Swindle of out Rook.

All in all, I'm gonna skip Optimus Maximus and Sky Reign, but try and get the rest.

its all of what i hoped it would be!!!

definately going to get almost all of it,wave 4 masquerade,bruticus,the other/new autobot cars wave

the only things im probably not going to get are the 2 skywarps and the starscream

oh if only i could afford this....

it actually makes you think what they are going to reveal for sdcc....i mean they could reveal the fan built bot...or maybe..

titan wars?

Dang I can't keep up with this line. Bruticus looks awesome. It's cool that we've got all these leader seekers, but aren't they a little big next to leader Megs? I would be more interested if they were Ultra class or something, and if we had a Soundwave and a better Prime. Combiner Wars must be selling well, then? I wonder if kids wonder who all these characters are lol.

Watch Takara replace Blastoff with a remolded Alpha Bravo/Vortex. Par for the course at this point, right?
Seeing a beastie/mech, Sky Lynx, gives me hope for beastie/mech combiners. I can see replacing the Sky Lynx altmode neck/head with two and Lynx had two tails, just make them longer.
There's Hun-gurrr for the Terrorcons and Abominus.

Awwww, Hasbro, c'mon! Heartstrings, much? They are again going above and beyond my expectations for their figures. Now I gotta come up with enough money to get these, Good going Hasbro and why oh why?!

I'm not sure I would want a Rung repaint of Wreck-gar. . .Rungs alt has had too much hype to be a bike

Bruticus looks fantastic! I was so happy to be satified with the hasbro version.... and then I noticed blast-off. Takara sells its unite warriors separately right?

Pretty cool stuff. A little disappointed sky lynx wont have his lynx mode half or will it ? And brawl looks awesome. Calling BS on everybody who insisted brawl was going to be a rook repaint. Onslaught looks pretty cool as well. Cant wait for the inevitable takara blast off. We can call the hasbro version "take off" instead. Would have preferred bruticus to have a silver chestplate and a brown cartoon accurate chestplate for Takara. I wonder how that would work with onslaughts transformation?

The only thing I'm a little disappointed is that Vortex is just another headswap. For the third use of the AB mold they could've done a little remolding.

It's a straight repaint of Alpha Bravo from what I can tell.

Nope, only as complete sets. So for both Groove and possible Shuttle Blast Off, prepare to pay through the nose.

Why change what's already perfect?

Rats! My heart says shuttle, but my wallet (and nose) say plane.

SKY LINX!!!! perfect for my legion collection!... pass on everything else

First off, RID2015, because I'm not all that interested but there are some surprises. Ironhide and Prowl might be interesting if they have figures, although both already have TFP toys on my shelf. And of course G1 color Grimlock is a must-have.

Pretty great stuff, only overshadowed by Takara's reveal of MP Ironhide. I'm really glad that Combiner Wars will be continuing for another year, not that I really had doubts.

I'm really excited for Bruticus even though Blast Off ended up not being a space shuttle. Strange, because there was so much speculation that they could retool Alpha Bravo into a shuttle. Honestly though, a fighter jet makes MUCH more sense as part of a military combiner team. The other members look amazing and spot on. So the running change will happen midway to give us both cartoon and toy colors for his chest plate? I'll be hoping to pick up the grey version because it looks better to me.

Other hightlights:

Shockwave - He'll be tiny but it'll be nice to finally have a Shockwave for my Generations shelf.

Wreck-Gar - Already have the Generations toy but I'll probably get him as another Junkion.

Sky-Lynx - Totally unexpected and looks really cool. Ill be viewing the combiner mode as an add-on. It'll give somewhere for all the wayward bots to go since I don't plan on picking up Cyclonus.

Out of the rest, Wheeljack, Prowl, and Hound are pretty tempting. Especially Wheeljack because that mold fits him really well. But I already have more accurate versions of these characters on my shelf, so I'll likely pass.

Oh, and Buzzsaw. Looks cool but I'll probably wait for the inevitable Laserbeak repaint.

All original members of the Combaticons? Best day ever, guys. Best day EVER.

Of course, it figures that they would use my least favorite Aerialbot for Blast-off, but I like that he's a jet instead of a shuttle. Makes sense.

And Brawl looks boss. And Swindle looks boss. And Onslaught looks boss. Heck, the whole damn thing is BOSS.

Looks like Seibertron is about to unload the full-on display galleries too!

WHAT A LOVELY DAY

ETERNAL SHINY AND CHROME (or not, I don't mind)

I'm digging these Autobot repeats a LOT more than I thought I would. The "Sky Reign" set is especially pleasing. It's too bad we couldn't get a few retooled weapons too. Wheeljack with a sword and without his shoulder cannon is a bit disappointing. Is anyone else hoping we get a few more of these Autobot repaints now? I'd like to see a Ratchet from First Aid, Sideswipe from Sunstreaker, Bluestreak from Streetwise, and Hoist from Trailbreaker at the very least.

By the way, does anyone else find it interesting that Hasbro is doing Bruticus with all five original members instead of replacing one with a new team member, as they've been doing all along this year, especially considering that Swindle just died in the IDW comics?

WITNESS HIM!!!!

What I'm wondering now is whether all of these will somehow fit into the Titan Wars (or any other arc) of the IDW comics.

Sky Reign sounds like something Starscream - or Rattrap - would come up with, though it would also mean crossing the streams of all three ongoings to get the characters in one place. And not sure I'd like that.

Perhaps this starts answering the question, by distancing the comics from the toys once again.
Either that, or what we saw is not actually what happened (which was my initial reading of the scene, anyway!).

Earlier this afternoon at BotCon 2015, Hasbro displayed a bunch of the upcoming new products that they revealed during their Transformers Brand panel on Saturday. Products on display include Bruticus and the Combaticons, Voyager Sky Lynx, Legends Shockwave, Sunstreaker, Trailbreaker, Buzzsaw, Pipes, Chop Shop, Leader Skywarp, and more! You can view the full gallery by clicking here or on any of the images below.

I may be a little bit in love with SkyLynx, especially in Barber's lines for him.



Mini Shockwave is also adorable!



And in fact, may further reinforce the idea that Bruticus will have very little to do with the comics after all. Shockwave has been gone since Dark Cybertron, after all.

Wait... Blast Off is a straight redeco of Quickslinger?!

FINALLY A SKY LYNX! SWEET! Even though I would rather he be leader size and not combine, I am very very happy with this voyager. Price is good as well.

JelZe GoldRabbit wrote:Wait... Blast Off is a straight redeco of Quickslinger?!

I suspect Takara will come to our rescue...again. I also want them to fix Vortex's colors. I know the yellow and red details are toy accurate, as is Hasbro's usual modus operandi, but they look awful. I'd rather the most subdued pallet of the G1 cartoon model.

I LOVE Sunstreaker's bio

Fantastic shot as always! That Bruticus looks amazing.

It's cool that we're getting a Sky Lynx, but I'll stick with my Titan Class one, thanks.

Where's Kickback?

I just want a mini Shockwave (I think Takara might add a little lilac.) for whatever Bruticus I pick up.

Where's Kickback!?

JelZe GoldRabbit wrote:Wait... Blast Off is a straight redeco of Quickslinger?!

Okay hasbro, you're f-ing with us now.

Yes! These are amazing Don't really understand why so many people love sky-lynx? is it his part in some comic series, is it to fill a gap in your updated collection, is it fond memories? Sky Reign looks so amazing; and it was clever to pull a 180 (literally) on us with Hotspot/Onslaught. Want Chopshop, as I never got the first version (that insecticon guy), the auto-cars are an insta-skip, though I need some to combine with Sky-Lynx...

Dammit Has/Tak

Really cool how balls to the wall they went with Vortex's colors.

While we might have guessed a lot of these molds, way to the US for a loop with Brawl and Swindle. Plus, Swindle is a Stryker-like APC, which makes me think fondly of an old Swindle-as-Drebin movieverse bio I once worked up.

Is that the Onyx tablet device from The Transformers #42?

Are the Soundwave rumours also being sort of kind of confirmed..?

I NEED THAT BRUTICUS!!! Like you wouldn't believe how bad I need him. And I need that Shockwave even more then that. I am perfectly fine with Blast Off being a jet. I don't like Brawl because the stock photos in the other thread made him look green.


Also, is it just me or is Sky Lynx retooled from Silverbolt? His combined form looks like it to me. Granted I don't have Silverbolt so I can't say for sure.

Va'al wrote:Is that the Onyx tablet device from The Transformers #42?

It'd be cool, so long as it doesn't use that god-awful op/motormaster mold; at this point though (with the (pseudo) reveal of Blaster)mare we assuming he'll be a repaint of blaster just for ease of re-purposing these companion figures?

He is (99%) most-assuredly a new mold, having both cyclonus and silverbolt looking at me and the gallery pics of Skyreign brought up. If it is, its a complete gutting of the figure ala rid arcee => chromia, except more.

That latter part wpuld make a lot more sense, yes. Perhaps Soundwave on Jupiter will have something of the new body, too. Hmm.

Ok, cool. He just really looked like Silverbolt

Finally, an Optimus toy that can be called a Star Convoy homage without me complaining about the overuse of that comparison

EVERYTHING IS AMAZING! HOW HASBRO CAN EVERYTHING BE SO AWESOME?! HOW DID THEY TURN A SIX WHEELED S.W.A.T TRUCK INTO HOUND AND SWINDLE! HOTSPOT AND ONSLAUGHT OUT OF ONE MOULD!? HOW DOES WHEELJACK LOOK SO MUCH LIKE WHEELJACK BUT MADE OUT OF A MOULD THAT'S NOT EVEN HIS!?! BRUTICUS RUNNING ABOUT WITH A SHOCKWAVE GUN?! TITAN WARS?!?

SKYLYNX IS SO FABULOUS, HANDSOME AND CHARMING HE DESERVES HIS OWN PARAGRAPH!

HASBRO YOU HAVE WON EVERYTHING TODAY WELL DONE! HELL EVEN CHANGING BLASTOFF INTO A JET IS A GOOD IDEA! (why there was a space shuttle in the COMBATicons is baffling? puts AlphaBravo into perspective!). WITH TARAKA'S IRONHIDE AND PRIMAL I'M GONNA BE ON A TRANSFORMERS BUZZ FOR WEEKS!



You can tell I'm exited, pretty much everything's in capitols!

Isn't Hasbro giving us BOTH colorations though? G1 cartoon AND G1 toy accurate Combaticons at retail?

I love Blast Off as a fighter jet, I just wish they retooled him and Vortex. They could've used one helicopter retool for one of the Victorion helicopters and Vortex and Alpha Bravo/Blades for the other Victorion Helicopter.

I also think that a retool of First Aid would've suited Trailbreaker better as he had the enclosed back but I'm ok with Offroad for Ironhide though because of TFP. They could've then used Offroad for Hoist as the fist on the back kinda looks like a towing device of some sort. Oh well, I missed both Generations Trailbreaker and Hoist so I'll get Trailbreaker without a doubt and if they do Hoist, I'll get him too. Who am I kidding, I'll get all the Autobots regardless. I've just always loved the Scramble City styling. That and my Universe Ironhide's and Prowl's paint got all crappy so I need new ones anyway.

Am I the only one who loves that Chopshop can use his Targetmaster self as a weapon just like Waspinator? So if they truly plan on completing teams then Kickback should be soonish after Chopshop hopefully. Then a Ransack repaint/tool of Kickback and a Barrage repaint/tool of Bombshell. So where does that leave Venom? A retool of Kickback and/or Ransack?

I think I'm going to have to cut myself off at the "leader" class Seeker trio. I would've gotten Voyagers no problem but these I may have to pass on unless I find them on sale like I did Grimlock, Jetfire and Armada Megatron.


Oh yeah I almost forgot. I absolutely LOVE that Sky Lynx. I might have to get two, one for itself and the other for combining.

And why oh why couldn't they have at least changed that all white prime into white with red legs instead of grey? Red legs would've been all it really needed to be so close to a Thunderclash homage. Sure there's a lot of navy and teal missing but the red legs would've looked so good on it especially with Hot Rod as the chest.

I think doing the autobot cars is cool. I get why they have to reuse molds - buy my god can they at least give them new weapons - Ironhide holding and axe and Sunstreaker holding a pipe is just ridiculous and stupid.

As soon as i saw that sky lynx was being made i was like OH HELL YEAH FUCK YEAH IT WAS FINALLY TIME THEY MADE SKY LYNX

Ok, cool. He just really looked like Silverbolt

I honestly don't see it; what made you think it was a re-mold?

I can just imagine thousands of Fall of Cybertron Combaticons suddenly appearing on Ebay......

Bruticus and Sky Reign look excellent, but because I don't want to end up with too many Combiners (I'm trying to downsize and streamline my collection) I can't see myself getting both teams. Swindle and Onslaught are the only Combaticons I like as stand-alone figures and Brawl is okay, but Vortex and Blast Off feel like no effort was put into them.

Sunstreaker, Trailbreaker, Smokescreen, Wheeljack and Battle Core Optimus don't appeal to me, so I might use Ironhide, Prowl and Mirage as Sky Reign's limbs instead, and have Sky Reign be the rival of Menasor (the only complete Combiner Wars combiner I have).

I am a bit sad that there's no Ratchet from the Offroad/First Aid mould (I'd pick Ratchet over Trailbreaker any day) and nothing from Titan Wars was shown or even teased (though I suppose that's what SDCC is for), I'm generally satisfied with what was shown at BotCon.

It me or is my wallet getting lighter? Also i would pass on the onslaught figure and blast off the wreck-gar looks like wheelier colors and those wheeljack sunstreaker mirage and ironhide figures as well balecause theg don't entirely fit the characters i will just wait fo4 an third oarty to make an new onsluaght and blast-off besides that that sky lynx is AWESOME i will definitely less likelh keeping him in combined mode and oeave him as be But i hope he can split componetsif he can hasbro has blessed us

To be fair, of the available molds, he would probably use the one for Defensor, and then have a near-identical paint scheme, it would probably feel (to the fans) really underhanded. as for vortex, we knew this was coming, wish they had made it so the missiles didn't look like a glob of bright yellow plastic on such a muted color scheme; really wouldn't have minded a departure from toy accuracy there.

DON'T USE SKY LYNX TO KEEP IN COMBINED MODE KEEP HIM SERPERATE WE ALL KNOW WHY THIS WILL BE THE ONLY SKY LYNX FIGURE IN A WHILE XD

D@mn! What are the odds that they're going to use this Skylynx mold for a Hun-garr retool??? Does that mean he'll be screwed out of a regular bot form?
