The latest addition to the Seibertron.com toy photogalleries sees the recent Transformers Collectors' Club membership incentive for 2015 - the big bad who used to be good, Nova Prime! This is a retool and redeco of the Generations Deluxe Orion Pax figure, the figure sports white, black, gold and teal, an alberd, a gun, and will probably attempt to establish a Primacy or Dead Universe colony in your collection once displayed.

Check out the full gallery by clicking on any of the images below, which include comparisons with the rest of the Ark 1 crew from the IDWverse, and let us know what you think of this new version of the mold, before the arrival of the next one with Lio Convoy!

Only room for two figures in the box, I wonder if that means no figure for the mystery purple guy?

I really like this mold. It's really amazing what a little paint and a new head can do.

I didn't realize these pictures were from seibertron galleries at first. I've got what may be a dumb question. Are the galleries a team project or are the work of just Seibertron?

For me it's OK, not the sharpest, but could be worse.

The paint, however, is a disgrace for that price. This is the paint quality I find on $5 knockoffs from Family Dollar.

Mercifully, mine wasn't quite so lacking. Just a few white paint flecks; the rest of the 'horn' was painted black.

Hey Ryan, can you tell what color his Autobot symbol is inside the blue windshield? I'm trying to figure out if this guy is supposed to be SG or not.

Also, I love the final shot with some of the other Ark-1 crew members. Though, what about Scourge, Straxus, Tailpipe (the DOTM Human Alliance Basic could stand in), and Grindcore (United EX Tankmaster could stand in)?

I've read the comics and don't even remember those guys sharing time with Nova Prime so we'll pass on that shot. Not saying that they didn't ... just not major enough players to warrant my time trying to make that shot. I can either work on that shot or I can work on the gallery of Combiner Wars Cyclonus today. Cyclonus takes precedent.

Oh, you were going by interaction scenes they shared directly with Nova. Okay. That makes sense.

I guess it is true that not all of the Ark-1's crew were seen in the same room as Nova in the comics.

The following frame is the whole reason I ended up getting the HA Tailpipe figure, but he only features in the one comic, and you can barely see Scourge and Grindcore in the background.

Just need to track down that Tankmaster vs Marine Master pack (for Grindcore and Manta Ray stand ins) and I'll have the whole Ark 1 crew

My Nova Prime arrived in the mail today, and I admit, I'm a bit underwhelmed.

He's a bit loose all around, and the head, while OK, doesn't scream of the Nova Prime we wanted.

He'll look really good on the shelf, and I don't regret buying him. But if you're on the fence, I would wait for a sale or just skip this one.

As the registration deadline for BotCon 2015 approaches, Seibertron.com is swelling with pride (heh) at the new installment of our toy galleries: Transformers Collectors' Club Deluxe Lio Convoy! The figure is a redeco of the Deluxe Generations Orion Pax, using a lionesque pattern of white, red, grey and gold, plus a new headsculpt too.

Lio Convoy is but one of the Orion Pax repurposes, as we have already seen and featured a gallery for Nova Prime a while back, and a third purple iteration seems to be teased on the box for the latter. In the meantime, click on any image below to view the full gallery, which includes comparison shots with Nova Orion and previous versions of Lio Convoy too!

I know I'm really happy with it. I wasn't sure what to expect since I didn't get Orion Pax so this is my first real encounter with the mold. It's a very solid figure with great articulation. He is a little small, even smaller than RID Warrior Op. The paint (at least on mine) is very clean and the sculpt doesn't look "soft" like some people have complained about in photos. My favorite part is how the truck mode slightly resembles a lion head with the black nose and gold mane. It's a nice figure, easily one of the best sub figures they've come up with.

I love it. The headsculpt on mine looks really sharp with good paint apps, and a very striking shade of blue that no pics ever do any justice towards and which I actually find myself liking more than the blue used on the head of my Legend Commander Collection Lio Convoy.

It also helps that a good story can really help sell a figure, as Jim Sorenson really nailed the two prose stories this iteration of Lio Convoy starred in. I hope he (Jim) keeps going with more of the Uprising story.

My only, if any, issues I have with the figure are those that stem from it using the Orion Pax mold, of which I'm not that big a fan of. But between this and the Nova Prime version, both are the better versions of the mold compared the much more plain-looking Hasbro Orion Pax.

As far as this gallery is concerned, as I said before, no pics can do the head's vivid shade of blue proper justice, but you always give it your all and then some. :APPLAUSE:

I'm only a bit saddened to see no pics of TCC Lio Convoy with his (former) supervisor TCC Eject.

Turning the camera lens to the Transformers Collectors' Club subscription service 3.0 we get a very nice gallery of the 1st figure Carzap with Kreon G.B. Blackrock. Based on an unused concept that paired Transformers with Takara's Diablock building block line which was to be known as Blocktown in the post G2 era.

Carzap is a retool of the Generations Bumblebee mold which was also used for Generations Goldfire, Nightbeat as well as Goshooter which was a Million Publishing exclusive. To homage the building block aspect of Blocktown, Carzap comes with a Kre-O set that builds a gas pump which can be converted into a laser cannon. Click on any of the images to see the full gallery.

I wouldn't mind adding a few more humans to my TF collection such as GB Blackrock but certainly not Kreons. I was fond of the Human Alliance figures though so does anyone know of any other toylines that have similar figures in size and articulation that I can just buy the human figures from to customise into TF humans? Actual HA figures would be far too expensive since would have to buy the whole robot set and end up with a ton of unneeded robots.

I want Carzap. Alot. Which is odd cause I have no connection to the figure other than loving G2.

Yeah, I would say for 8 figures, it's worth it, but unless they swapped the stupid-cheap rubber for something that doesn't make me want to burn the mini-waspies, I will be saving my money for CW wave 3 (whenever HTS gets them instock :-x

I don't have much interest in chasing down Diaclones for the sake of doing comparisons for these guys. If I found some for a steal, maybe, but I'd really rather finish my Takara G1 collection first.

What I am interested in knowing is where I can find out if the Reflector pilot is actually called Spy-Eye (as in the Go-Bot, which I read elsewhere on our forums) and if the Diaclone pilot which it homages is a good guy or a Waruder and who the original pilot it homages is.

On the first page that Burn Out and Lift-Ticket appear in the comic, Lift-Ticket is holding the red Reflector in camera mode and refers to it as "Spy-Eye". I'd give the page number, but the comic lacks page numbers and I wouldn't know which page to consider "Page 1" (the cover, the inside cover, or the next page with the story's beginning).

Lift-Ticket's line of dialogue reads "Hrm, the signals that are being detected by Spy-Eye... without a doubt."

Sadly, the little guy doesn't seem to appear on any other page in the comic.

As for whether the name is a reference to the GoBot, or what the nature of the Diaclone toy it homages is, I know not, but can keep looking into it.

Posted by Sabrblade on June 28th, 2015 @ 11:55pm CDT

Well, looks like finding out what Diaclone toy Spy-Eye is based on was easier than I thought. It's the Powered Suit, a biosuit that the little (good guy) Diaclone pilot figures could be put into and wear.

Is the price really that bad ? Its 4 figures. Split the price in 4 and they come out to $42.50 each plus shipping. Pretty good for an exclusive compared to millions publishing or Tokyo toy fair exclusives prices.

So don't buy it. These are limited exclusives, and are priced accordingly. I sympathize with those who are priced out of instant gratification, but I don't see the point in constantly bellyaching about it.

These will most likely lower in price/value as time goes on. Patience.
