Official Images of Transformers Studio Series Blackout, Grimlock, Lockdown, Stinger, More #HasbroToyFair #NYTF

These things will be available in stores soon. What kind of desperate idiot is just going to jump online and buy some?


*goes and jumps online and buys some*

Will Hasbro toy shop ship these to the UK just I really want that bee.

Theses look so gorgeous, cannot believe these are gonna be no more after the bee movie

Lockdown and megs are day 1 buys for me, stinger looks weird, and not at all like his art... Think I might swing for brawl and jazz too

Ooooooh, nice! I think I want most of the line! But c'mon, that's not Voyager Starscream, that's the DOTM Deluxe upscaled! He's almost identical, the only diference being better articulated arms and a less hollow chest!

This line has got me well and truly interested in movie toys again, the only thing here I don't like is Voyager Optimus. It's a shame Ratchet is only a Deluxe, I would have liked a Voyager, but I'll still get it. I'm also picking up Blackout, Brawl, and possibly 76 Camaro Bumblebee if I can't find the TLK version of the mould for a good price.

Seriously though, why did Bumblebee get painted rims and nobody else?

Maybe he's going to look like that at some point in the bb movie, so they gave him a larger budget on the premise that he'll be used across two movie lines? Or maybe they gave him special treatment as the figure-head for this line? Or maybe he had budget left over due to not getting as many updated parts as everyone else?

Our Toy Fair 2018 coverage continues with the gallery for Transformers Studio series. You can find more information about the Studio series here from the official reveals, some shots from on the floor, and details on it from Hasbro's Panel Presentation about the upcoming line from their panel earlier in the day on Saturday February 17th, 2018. The gallery is home to the offerings we hope to see this April ranging from Leader classes Blackout, and Grimlock; Voyagers Brawl, Revenge of the Fallen Megatron, Revenge of the Fallen Optimus Prime, and TF1 Starscream; Deluxe class Bumblebee, Crowbar, Ratchet, Lockdown, Jazz and Stinger

Hot dang I'm all about these figures!! With the exception of Grimlock and Crowbar. And maybe Stinger.

*follows Ironhidensh to find figures online*

that bumblebee is my most definite buy from this line, mostly because the classic camaro bumblebee was my first movie figure. unfortunately it broke because of the stupid automorph gimmick that was on a hair trigger.

SO MANY AWESOME FIGURES!
The only ones I'm not liking of these is the voyager Prime and Stinger, all the others look superb. Crowbar's even growing on me, seeing him in that hunched-over pose that he had in DOTM makes a world of difference. Lockdown and Jazz look just about perfect, especially with the paint & new head sculpts. ROTF Megatron looks spot-on (hopefully he keeps the paint from his tank mode figure on display, though), they just look so good! Going to try and order that new Bumblebee tonight; if not it's no big deal, they come out pretty soon anyways.

Sort of off topic but I can't find the thread it came from, do we have any more intel on when the Movie the Best wave 2 figures get released? Anyone who ordered Jazz or Lockdown might want to cancel right about now xD

Um, stupid question. The Bumblebee in the Studio Series line is the same mold that we just got in The Last Knight?

chuckdawg1999 wrote:Um, stupid question. The Bumblebee in the Studio Series line is the same mold that we just got in The Last Knight?

He's indeed based on the TLK mold, with a lot of parts changed. For that matter:

- Crowbar is a retool of TLK Berserker
- Ratchet is a heavy retool of DotM Ratchet

Stinger is the only new mold in the Deluxe range, but I can't help but feel Starscream is an upscaled DotM version.

That leader Grimlock look like a new mold. And FAR superior than the lackluster AoE one. I'm unimpressed by Blackout though. That voyager Starscream look amazing and Megatron too.

Speaking of Megatron, I am the only one who wish for a MPM Megatron in his 2007 mode?

Would have been stoked if they made Ratchet a Voyager class. But he's probably not as popular as the others in that size class so I get why Hasbro made the choice they did. People would rather have a big dinobot so I can't blame them.

Brand Unification is at an all time high, not only are Hasbro and Takara releasing the exact same figures for the Studio Series line but they are revealing them on the very same day. You can catch up on the Hasbro side of things for Transformers Studio Series with the official reveals, some shots from on the Toy Fair floor, and details on it from Hasbro's Panel Presentation about the upcoming line from their panel earlier in the day on Saturday February 17th, 2018.

And now, at the other end of the world, Japan is seeing these same figures as well. Fellow Seibertronian Primalxconvoy attended Wonderfest 2018 and snapped images of Grimlock and Optimus prime who we can see in their packaging as well. there was even a whole dioroma made especially to showcase this new leader Grimlock in his mighty scale.

Crowbar, Stinger, Bumblebee and Blackout were also there.

My lord these look amazing. Jazz and Lockdown look gorgeous. Megatron and Starscream look fantastic. Blackout looks great. And that Grimlock is just an absolute monster.

I’m starting to regret not buying more TLK figures...

Shouldnt be too late, they are still in stores.

A very very far cry from what he looks like, especially around the arms, wtf is going on there?!




And while i am here, that optimus look like crap. A fake chest, REALLY!!???! At least they could make it look good, but no, instead we have black tabs right at the center

Grimlock is AMAZING. He's huge and I recommend him to everyone.

Be very surprised if you see me post about getting any of these figures.

I've already scaled down my movie collection because frankly, they got crappier and crappier. For the first few years I was able to ignore how ugly they were, but time took it's toll and now looking at these ... meh.

OK that Grimlock looks frickin' incredible. In both modes. Trying to figure out his shoulders though... is there two dino heads? :O

I'm saving up for these. May pass on Prime cos I have my AoE Evasion and TLK knight versions already taking up two places for him. But yeah I'm buying so many of those other ones. Yay for a Transformers line I wanna buy.

EDIT: just went back a page and saw the ones i hadnt seen. Lockdown, Megatron and such all look great. Jazz though is prob my fave deluxe there. Awesome.

Starscream. Someone mentioned it's just the deluxe scaled up with a few improvements. I love the Deluxe other than the fact it's small. I nearly bought a scaled up KO but couldn't find it available to buy anymore. This mold suits me just fine then. Though I would prefer it in RotF tattoo deco.

I'm not really a film fan, but that Grimlock, even in green, is fantastic. Obviously, the transformation could be awful and it could be made from razorblades and asbestos, but the look of the thing... Oh MYYYYY!

Anyone able to help a big fan out?

I live in the U.K. but really want to buy Stinger and Bee. Anyone able to help me purchase and get these figures shipped to me? (sadly delivery on the site is restricted to the U.S. and Canada) pleaseeeee

Only thing I really want from this line is the 70’s Bumblebee.

Not really a fan of movie Grimlock, as good as this version looks, and Prime is just a Mess, with all the movie Primes we saw last year, this is just sad.

I’ll stick with my Movie the Best MB-11

Is Ratchet bigger than previous Deluxe Ratchets? He appears a fair bit taller than 77 Bee and Jazz.

TLK Bee and red redeco of DotM Ratchet. Same height


Screencap from PrimeVsPrime's video of recent pics.


Can see the new lower legs add a bit extra height. Which suits me fine as I like Prime and Megatron to be Voyager size and Bee/Jazz Deluxe and Ratchet and Ironhide to be in the middle.

Yep, ok I probably not even gonna wait for a hopeful RotF version, that Starscream is gorgeous. Where's his saw?

DotM Thundercracker stole it, so Starscream grew bigger

But he had it in one of the earlier preview pics.


Also I think I actually like that Optimus Prime mold but the colour layout isn't doing it favours..

Blackout looks great.

He did? I thought I was just making a jab at how Studio Series Starscream is an upscaled DotM design...

Oh daaaaaaaamn Blackout looks incredible. Hands are a bit of a bummer but he still looks properly awesome.

JelZe GoldRabbit wrote:He did? I thought I was just making a jab at how Studio Series Starscream is an upscaled DotM design...

Yeah I looove that deluxe figure except for the small size and it spent a lot of time on my desk so a more detailed larger version is like made for me.

Just looking at some of the noticable improvements particularly the sides of the torso.


I love it.



But yeah there should be a large buzzsaw that he was holding back in the earlier blurrier pics. I can't find it.

edit:

You can see the saw on his left arm here.

Hes holding a saw type weapon on his left arm in that picture with the white background

I'm going to get that Starscream for sure. As for Optimus, I have WAY too many and Battle Blades Optimus do the job aplenty. Blackout, I may get on sale because I'm unimpressed. Looking forward for HD pictures of Megatron and Grimlock. Both will be SURE BUY. Grimlock will be acquired as soon as I see it in store. As for Megatron, it will replace the ROTF "green burger" in my Movie Voyager Megatron display.

A Grimlock figure...that actually looks...like GRIMLOCK???!!! I'm about to get emotional over these pics!!!

My god...they're trying to make everyone to scale...





It's...so beautiful...

But... Jazz is supposed to be littler than Bumblebee.

I am blown away that Hasbro could make a near perfect TLK optimus toy, who's design barley showed any truck parts, and yet they can't make a movie accurate optimus from the first three movies. I can't believe that 9 years ago, they could top that design, and yet today they make something that looks worse than the 2007 leader. Pretty excited for most of the other figures though. I never really liked Blackout or Jazz, but these new figures will be must haves on my wishlist.

Sabrblade wrote:But... Jazz is supposed to be littler than Bumblebee.

It's a 1 foot difference according to the chart, I can live with it. Stand 'Bee up straight and/or bend Jazz's knees a little and we're good.

The important thing is they're actually trying. No leader Optimus towering over a deluxe Bonecrusher, no voyager Constructicons being the same height as Ironhide, etc. Everyone is approximately where they should be in relation to the other characters. That's remarkable for a movie line.

Why does Blackout look as tall as grimlock in the scale chart above and yet he is at least a head shorter in the pic below ?

Probably cuz his knees are bent, he is always seen that way, and is proly super back/top heavy, one is a cg mock up, and the other is a display, big difference...

Anxious to see the Nitro redeco.

I hope they do a Cogman too.

The new Transformers Studio Series line was revealed at both Toyfair and Wonderfest this year just hours apart from one another and we have extensive galleries showing you what was on display along with Hasbro's 3d renders. If you want more, and why wouldn't you, Notrab on Weibo has unloaded what appears to be official product shots for these upcoming toys. These resemble the high quality photos that accompany retail listings like Walmart or Toysrus, showcasing these toys in the best light possible, along with their features and poseability.

We get a great shot of how each product scales with one another, which really showcases John Warden's comments on how scale was a big component of this line. It is fascinating to see the tools Hasbro used for this accomplishment, like the use of using toys we had already gotten and upscaling them in a way that works best (such as Starscream and Ratchet) along with other changes to existing tooling. There are new molds as well, of course, like Optimus, which is not as well received as the rest of the line. It is probably because Hasbro showed us years ago how a voyager scaled toy of the Revenge of the Fallen model was possible at a voyager scale without resorting to fake discolored chest windows and an inaccurate backpack. These images do show him in his best light so far, so you will let us know what you think.

You will also find many images of Leader Blackout, a very long awaited figure. Is he as great as you would have hoped? Is he your most anticipated leader class figure of this line?

Let us know!

Only thing I would change is Optimus's chest, and have Bee slightly taller than Jazz. Still excited for the line!
