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!
(You can click on any of the images below to view the full gallery of today's Transformers Fan First Friday Livestream event or just click here.)
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.

sharkticons looking like a box with teeth in shark mode. Kinda like it, kinda dont.
wont be likeing the price of shattered glass sstarscream but I only like the alt mode anyways so I'm out on him. Down the line Shattered Glass Soundwave and Blaster will be pricey but something I wont be able to say no to.

This event was a waste of time. The market guy was terrible and it is clear that he has never done something like this before. The jokes he tired making just fell flat and were not good at all. I like the designer, you can tell that he really is a fan and enjoys what he is doing. The hint at preceptor coming was also great. Spending over 10 mins on another reissue of the movie with fancy new art was just bad, it should have taken 2 mins at most.
They really dropped the ball on showing off some Bayverse figures. I am so sick of all this G1 taking over everything. Who ever is in charge of TF marketing and reveals at Hasbro needs to be let go, because they are doing a terrible job
For the figures, I'll be getting the SS86 guys but I'll skip on SG Starscream.

I’m ELATED that I can finally own a SG Screamer without spending a ridiculous amount of money on EBay.
This is a far fetched hope, but I’d be so up for the Selects line homaging/redoing many of the impossible to get BotCon/FunPubs/etc exclusives from ages past.

I don't have any interest in Shattered Glass, but I've picked up all the Siege tetrajets, and SG Starscream's deco is great. Probably the only SG figure I'll ever get, but I need this one.

So maybe I’m wrong, but I feel like we’re starting to see the difference of John Warden not being design manager here. I think it’s been long enough since his switch away from TFs that the takeover of complete G1 (even in studio series, not even sharing waves with bayverse but completely dominating it) is a result of a new manager. Warden liked his G1, but I always thought he was very well balanced in providing a wonderful amount of movie and g1 characters. Anyways, I miss the guy and I love all of his work. I was really holding tight for at least a Jolt reveal. It’s still SO odd to me how they insist on only revealing 3-4 figures at a time at these events. Praying for a change in pace with these events and reveals sometime soon.

Slag, Wreck-Gar, and Gnaw are all pre-ordered...through the Amazon listing a month or so ago.
I was surprised and disappointed they didn't reveal more. Given that we already know a good number of Kingdom figures through that same Amazon preorder listing, I figured on this being a somewhat longer presentation to show off the next wave of that line, too. Not to mention that we saw Artfire a few days ago, but they didn't even give it a mention on stream or put it up with the preorders.

Interesting to see that not only is Gnaw labeled a Quintesson for the first time, but they're sticking with the stylized, tribal style logo for the Quintesson faction.

I was on Pulse once I saw the announcement. I had "Slug" in the cart. But by the time I got to checkout, he was sold out and unavailable. Madness!
Those Sharkticon teeth had better NOT be soft rubber...

So me: Maybe with the price increase I should scale back my TF collecting.
Also me: Oh hey, Slag, SG Starscream, Gnaw and Wreck-gar *preordered all*. Even ordered 2 Wreck-gars for bike riding effect.
I might have a bit of an addiction issue...
And 4K TF The Movie. *sigh* Sure I'll buy the film for the 5th time. But the steelbook ain't going to make it 6.

I haven't bought any of the Shattered Glass stuff yet, but I must say I've liked the look of every figure they've revealed so far. The idea of buying SG Starscream and then re-purposing it as a Skyfire did briefly cross my mind (Siege Jetfire never really did it for me), plus I've never owned a version of the Siege Tetrajet mould but I've heard so many good things about it that I feel as if I should get at least one version.
Overall though, this wasn't a great livestream, it's a shame that only four new figures were announced and there was no mention of upcoming Bayverse toys that we've known about for a very long time at this point, plus it's clear that the people hosting these streams are waaaaaayyyyyy out of their element and are very uncomfortable doing them. It feels like the Transformers team at Hasbro doesn't really want to do things like Fans First Friday, but feel obligated to keep the wheel spinning until large conventions where they can have panels and slideshows start up again.

I hear ya.
I stopped buying BD years ago because too often, the picture quality is no better than the DVD and for some reasons, too many only have the French dub from FRANCE instead of the Canadian one. It's extremely important for the rest of my non-english speaking family and for childhood nostalgia.

I'm never a hard pass on SG figures until I see them... Although the majority, including this SS, just aren't for me, and I just don't see them being worth it.
The others from SS86 have been on preorder, and I'm glad. If I see any in-store early, they're bought on sight. I doubt I'll get any other Junkions, which means I may go ahead and get 3 Sharkticons.
I wish there would have been word about the other Dinobots, but I figure that's not too far off.
Nice to know Perceptor's on the way. Hope to hear more about Blaster soon, too.
*edit
The more I've looked at Wreck-gar's cycle mode, the more I like it, and could possibly see getting another Junkion just for Wreck-gar to "ride around" on.

two wreckgars will cost me more than my three shatterd glass botcons junkions, three selects shattered glass junkions down the line will cost me more than a titan class.
I'm not daring to be stupid anytime soon
I'll pick up Gnaw but just one of him.
slag -at a reduced price or if i get Grimlock at a reduced price to balance out the spending.

Must. Buy. SG Starscream. In all seriousness, he’s the only one of the lot that I’m going to get, maybe because I’m just not a hardcore G1 or ‘86 movie fan to get the others.

I always feel obligated to advise to people to be weary of putting off getting figures...
I too am willing to wait some time to see if figures I’m on the fence about will go on a good sale...
But man, if it’s a figure you think you want, or will want down the road, I say get it/them now...
Figures like the SS86 Dinobots will be soooo expensive once they’re unavailable from regular retailers.
And since it’s very likely we’re getting all 5 over the next year or two, the costs for these first couple isn’t ever going to go down. Sellers are going to be able to keep their asking prices super high because the demand isn’t going to decrease anytime soon, if ever.
I’m to the point where even if I can’t do a straight up return, store credit isn’t the end of the world.

It's the new Quintesson badge from the War for Cybertron trilogy. Welcome to Seibertron.com, by the way, megadino706!

So I like Gnaw. He looks pretty good in both modes. He's definitely bigger, which is something that I've wanted for quite a while. I'm excited to add him to my growing army of Sharkticons.
However, I'm a little concerned about the hollowness of him from the side of his robot mode. His belly isn't a true belly, it's like a flat shirt, which is kind of a bummer.
I also think he looks more like a War for Cybertron Trilogy Sharkticon / Gnaw instead of a G1 movie Gnaw. Something is really off about his face. It looks good for a Sharkticon, just not as G1 movie Sharkticon.
Torn about it. Might be one of those things that you like it more in person. Would like to read your thoughts!

I’m pretty sure what is throwing the look of the face off is how large the eyes are...
In the movie they were about half that size.
So it also makes the rest of his face look too small.
I also would’ve like if the sharkticon mode hands were bigger.
Which for me is more of an issue than the bot eye size.
But I still think he looks great overall. Especially for a troop-building type of figure.

I am very surprised by the excitement people have for Gnaw. But that's good, I want these toys to sell well. I just think he looks terrible. This is one of the few Transformers whose alt mode is the more memorable one and it does not look good. We still have the same visible head syndrome we always have with these but now we also have that clash in colours on the side with the exposed robot kibble.
And in robot mode, I really dislike how high the top half of the shark head is. That is not how he should look like.
As for Wreck- gar I like the robot mode but that bike mode looks like the robot doing some weird pose rather than a full fledged alt mode. I will get him though, fun to know other iterations can ride him.

Eh, not really impressed. If that SG Starscream had been the ER mold, I'd have gotten it. The colors are sharp, but I'm not into the mold. As it is, the only one I'll be picking up is SLAG. I don't remember a 'Slug' being in TF:TM.

Which mold? Or are you talking about Shattered Glass Screamer?

They usually (always?) save those for Transformers Tuesdays.
Why not? It's the closest thing to the original we have and it looks great!
ER mold would have looked weird just like the jet mold for the Subscription Service figure looked weird.

Yeah, I wish they had stuck with the older one. The new one is just too complex for my tastes.
As for SG Screamer's alt mode, I'd have preferred the F-15 more, but only because I like that alt. mode more overall. The Seige one was the right call. Although that color patters is really trying to make it look like the mold it isn't while not really taking advantage of the mold it is.
I'll get it because I'm a Seeker collector. But the deco has no style.

Yeah point I'm just not a fan of that mold. Hell with the 3 main seekers going from Cybertronian to Earth jets I'm still hoping for a Earth version of Red Wing somewhere down the road!

Little late to the party, but.. here are my thoughts.
No interest in *Slag*. I'll wait for Sludge and Swoop.
No attachment to the Sharkticon but he does look nice.
Wreckgar looks interesting, probably won't be pre-ordering him, and will only get him if he's discounted somewhere.
Starscream looks great, I might be inclined to get him if I ever seem him somewhere. Pulse exclusives are just a coin toss wether they show up down here somewhere or not.
Outside of that kind of a lame Fans First Friday. Was kind of hoping we'd get to see Tigatron and Waspinator. O well. Saves me some money.

That's your opinion but that Cybertronian jet is the BEST ever as far as G1 looks go. But as for the TOY itself, the Cybertron voyager is still unbeatable. The bot AND spaceship are just perfect plus it'S a joy to handle.
My main complaint with that SG Starscream is the paint and deco are waaaayyyyyy to plain and clean. It look unfinished.

SG Screamer looks cool, I preordered him.
The rest..... *sighs*
why they could not have shown off the other half of that wave with the bayverse guys is a mystery. Come on.

Marketing loves themes. In the stream they did a whole sequence on the artwork for the DVD, for crying out loud. I'm sure they'll announce a bunch of movieverse related stuff together sooner than later.
