I totally caught that and I am surprised so few fans don't. This line takes a lot of cues from G1, which was a toyline for kids. It has the same characters as G1, along with the same basic articulation and simple enough transformations. Plus it has gimicks for kids, which the G1 line did do as well in the later years. It very much is an old school kids line and I find that fun in itself.

Also, while I did not intend this at all, my house became like a pop up christmas store for Transformers, since i was selling a small chunk of my collection. Most of the customers were parents looking for simpler toys for 4-6 year olds. I had almost nothing for them, but this Cyberverse line would be perfectly up their alley. All to say there is definitely a market out there and this line answers a big need. It's these toys that can make new young fans that will one day support the brand when they are older.

Well, where you have toys for 4-6yo you might not have for older children like 9-12. Hasbro needs a Siege lite type of line. But I definetely agree that Cyberverse can get very appealing like that.

Siege is perfect for kids aged 9-12.

True, but Hasbro markets it for 16+ they said.

Bottom line is, Hasbro needs to improve their marketing. Then, the prices should be lower too

I don't think I've seen these things show up in any store

While it will maybe be another 3 months or more before we get to finish Maccadam, half of his pieces have already come out and most actually connect together already so it gives us a pretty good idea of what to expect when we have him complete. So I wanted to write this article since many were interested by this figure, and to some this is the most interesting figure of the entire series so far since it's a character we never got. Well now that I have (some of) him in hand, I would highly recommend that no one invest in these toys solely for the Build a Figure component.

For those unaware, in the Marvel Legends line the Build a Figure component has slowly turned from a mere bonus item or something that could not be released individually to the main reason to buy a line. Hasbro released their Marvel Legends toys for Infinity War and the Build a Figure was Thanos, the movie's main character. And when it came time for them to make a line for Endgame, the Build a Figure was once again Thanos. So movie fans had to buy Marvel's Living Laser figure if they wanted to complete the big bad of the biggest movie of all time.

This is just to show where people accustomed to Build a Figure lines may be coming from. Be it good news or bad news, Hasbro has not elected that approach for Maccadam. Unlike Marvel Legends, the figure you build here is not at all on the same level of quality, articulation or even proportion as the rest of the line. It really is just a bonus and not something that could be released on it's own commanding a similar or greater price point as the rest. It's almost like a middle ground between the Marvel Legends approach and their mindset for their previous Build a Figure energon animals from the RID line, which no one felt compelled to complete.

We knew he didn't transform but in terms of articulation, Maccadam will also be lacking compared to the rest of the line. Maccadam's entire lower leg is 1 grey plastic piece with a little amount of paint on it. So the feet are not seperate pieces from the leg and the forearm that came out in the first wave does not have wrist articulation. These pieces are also very light. You can see images below of how tall he is going to be compared to other deluxes and he does seem small.

None of this detracts from him being a fun bonus and a welcome surprise to a line of toys that were long overdue and that I'd recommend to any fan of previous cartoon based lines. However, a bonus is all he is and if you expect more, there is a strong chance you'll be disappointed. What's great is that for those who just planned on buying a few deluxe figures out of the 8 in this set, then you can rest assured that the price you are paying is going (almost) entirely to the figure you bought rather than a good portion of it going to a piece that you will never use.

Are they are using the BAF option as a feeler for more BAFs or a full release of Maccadam? And will the strength/quality of the actual bots give a false positive?

I'm now considering getting at least one of the deluxes, but I have no interest in the BAF or any future BAFs, unless they transform.

As someone who grew up with the UK comics, seeing Maccadam appear in the cartoon was a pleasant surprise, so I don't give a flying hoot how unarticulated he is, we're finally getting a representation of him. And I'm sure I'm not the only one who feels that way.
Provided they get released here.

Woah! What's with the living ;aser hate, he was the only one from that wave that I wanted

On an unrelated note, I think our fandom could acclimate to this a little better, I feel that we're more used to buying, swapping, parting out figure's we do/don't want, unlike marvel legends where most people are gong to want most of the main line and all of the b.a.f. parts too; I think the forums here will get everyone sorted out for the most part on the figures that they want, be it only macadam or just the deluxes

I actually was ok with the Maccadam parts, and it's really cool to be taking part in this. Sure, he will be a bit small and not Transform, but he's still pretty cool and actually just as articulated as the other figures when you get down to it. He may not have ankles, but he still has wrists, and he has the torso movement/ball joints to make up for the ankles.

I'm excited to finish him, it's gonna be torture to wait out the other wave of figures.

Also, it was nice that 3 of the 4 parts in the wave could attach to each other. Makes it easier to wait, but still very impatient

I like him too and really like this BAF approach as rrally just an extra. Its just that I wanted people to know what they are in for if maccadam is all they cared about.

Except for Bee so far, I am mainly in this to complete a Maccadam. But the other 3 deluxes were still good enough to be enjoyed despite being bought for the Maccadam pieces

the new CYBERVERSE DELUXE FIGURES.

Are they good?
Or are they only good in comparison to the Warrior scrap?

I picked up Bumble Bee on a whim, and I gotta say, He's GOOD! Like shockingly good! Both modes look great, transformation is engaging and mildly complicated for the demographic they are aimed at. The designers put some thought into these Deluxes, for sure!

Also, has anyone seen the first wave of Cyberverse tiny turbo changers? It has been a while and I haven't seen any

They are pretty darn good. Bee is the best and shockwave is the weakest, but they are all still solid deluxe figures

My opinions have actually changed and I think it's the best of the first wave.

Serious question; do you subscribe to the best deluxe Bee opinion? I'm not sure if that is across all lines or just in the Aligned continuity. Either way, where to do rank him against other deluxe class Bee's?

Cyberverse isn't Aligned.

Really? Goes to show what I know. I thought it was a follow up to RiD2015. So it's the David S. Pumpkins of Transformers?

The question still remains; how does deluxe Cyberverse Bee compare to other deluxe Bees based on whatever criteria is chosen to measure with. I already know how WJ88 and DMax feel.

That makes no sense.

Assumptions, like hairsplitting, rarely do. I haven't paid Cyberverse any attention until someone said "hey this toy is really good, you should check it out".

Think of Cyberverse as, Transformers: The Greatest Hits.



But seriously, I feel like they are just cherry picking from every incarnation that came before it.
And, that is not a criticism.

I picked up my first Cyberverse figure today, Gnaw. He'll just be hanging with the TR sharkticon school though.

Much like Tina Turner, I don't need another hero (Bee).

carytheone wrote:Serious question; do you subscribe to the best deluxe Bee opinion?

He is very good, but I do not quite think he is the best deluxe Bee ever. He is really good and a strong figure no doubt, but I think the new SS Deluxe at least is a contender for that role, same with the TLK deluxe, Battleblades Bumblebee (hearsay, I don't own it), and RiD Deluxe.

The full decision will come down to personal taste, but he is very high up there as best deluxe ever

Thanks, all I wanted was opinions anyway I noticed a lack of Prime Bees mentioned I had the RiD Bee and he was solid, but I sold him once I fell out of love with RiD15. I've made up my mind to stop at Gnaw... well and maybe a Quintesson (Earthrise pending)

The BH Bee is pretty cool, but his proportions are a bit wack, the only reason he is a little lower on the list. I got the Bee Supreme from RiD and it was pretty dang sweet. I might take him to work this week since he's on the mind.

I've heard the FE Bee is pretty good, but I haven't handled it. Was thinking about messaging you about yours

You should get ultimate Grimlock, that is a great figure. works on many levels. I too am debating that Quintesson pending Earthrise

FE Bee has the same proportions as BH Bee so the same criticism can apply.

You mean PRID Bee. FE Bee had a wider torso and a lower-situated head.

No, I meant FE Bee. Slightly different but still some major proportion issues. Same shit different day. Plus they both suffer from lack of screen accuracy especially with the lower legs.

The Prime Bees are a little broad in the chesticles. Unlike the SS line and the Cyberverse deluxe Bee, they suffer from real parts syndrome

Screen accuracy (like scale) is nice, but I judge toys by how fun they are. That includes, transformation, articulation, feels - you know, that unquantifiable stuff. I'm open to buying one-offs, if the figure hits those notes. That's why I have a few movie figures.

So Gnaw is really cool and ultimately I feel is a better toy than the TR version.

The first wave of Transformers Cyberverse Ultra Class figures for 2020 is available to order now on Amazon.com, with this wave featuring femme fatale Clobber, Autobot cavalier Hot Rod and of course, another Bumblebee to add to your swarm. While these toys have been sighted as US retail stores, they are in-stock for immediate Prime shipping on Amazon so this may prove to be a faster and easier method for many collectors to get their hands on these figures.

Superbly tempted on Clobber

It'd be nice if they would stock Ratbat and Rumble already, since I cannot find them anywhere!

Me thinks you're confusing some releases. Cyberverse has no toys for Ratbat or Rumble, however, Siege does.

I read Cobbler and now I'm hungry. Not a bad option to fill that overpriced Lugnut sized hole on shelves.

I picked up Clobber, and she's totally worth it. Good articulation fun transformation, and the gimmick is totally ignoreable if you don't like it.

Sounds great man, thanks for letting us know! I am really intrigued by the fun transformation you describe.

If you're interested in the baby sharkticons

Good Bumblebee?

Very good Bumblebee

So Optimus then. He's a pretty decent figure. Not perfect, not a standout, but he's still pretty good. He moves and looks good, and I like the matrix blasting effect. The colors are also pretty sweet. the mix of black and blue on the legs is pretty sweet

Those Pat Lee toes, though...

Greetings Seibertronians! Thanks to an Eagle eyed twitter user, @Waspshot23, we have our first sighting of the new Ultimate Class Optimus Prime figure for the Transformers Cyberverse line in the UK! This toy features flip out Energon Armour like his wave mates, speaking of...

The user also spotted Ultra Class Clobber on the shelf next to Prime! She features the same gimmick as Optimus. Check out the image below!



This is what the twitter user had to say about the sighting:

@Waspshot23 wrote:Sad to report Clobber is tiny but that brick Optimus? Weighs a ton. Could club someone with it.

It's hard to tell which store this sighting was made at.

Will you be hunting either of these down? Do you want a Clobber to go with your Lugnut? Let us know in the Energon Pub and stay tuned to Seibertron for all the latest news and reviews!

Those toys look nice,the package is simple yet effective.

Day 23 of waiting for Transformers Armada Masterpiece toy news.

today was a Megatron type day.

This figure is OK. not fantastic, but still good. His joints are a smidge loose, and he feels a bit thin compared to how I would like him to be, but he can pose pretty good, the tank mode is enjoyable, and the transformation is interesting, if a bit of a pain with the legs

Shockwave seems to have hollowed out Optimus Primes Chest and wearing him as armor... Ultimate figure at the Entertainer

https://www.thetoyshop.com/action-toys- ... 4603_shock

Cyberverse Shockwave went to work last Friday. He's ok, has some nice paint work, but the mold is pretty weak, easily my least favorite of the 4 new deluxes. He was improved greatly when i discovered I could remove his hose from the gun, but he's still kinda just eh

How does he compare to the Warrior, which was a very decent figure?
