The images of these Transformers: The Last Knight toys are blurry since this was a call on the computer but we can still make out some cool aspects like Cogman's open dashboard which seats two Titan Masters and Cogman's head on Nitro. There are also shots of Infernicus, Skullitron and Hot Rod.
Enjoy!

Nitro has a standard head, not a headmaster. But they did design his head to use the titan master port, so you can take his nontransforming head off and replace it with a titan master. Cogman is also titan master compatible, but his head is actually a titan master too

Also, the only thing to complete my being absolutely correct about Nitro is if his cockpit fits a titanmaster as well. I feel good about myself.

Cool he does match up quite a bit with the cgi model although kinda strange Nitro has a more unique toy head compared to the straight up Shockwave head he has in the movie.
I did not use the first picture for comparison it was just the first picture I could find on google images of just Nitro.

SillyMcGilly wrote:I don't get the mix of heads. My guess is that since the CGI design has Shockwave's head and the KSI drone has a different head, that they decided to design the toy as kinda a mix. Who knows though. His head might transform to look like that for all we know. Some kinda battle mode.
Or maybe that's the final head and the one we see in trailers is just an early placeholder or the original.
I think that one is unlikely but it's just another theory/guess.

I just figured it was simply because Nitro is currently the only Titan Master-compatible figure who is predominately light gray, has a robot mode design that doesn't resemble any of the more recognizable non-Thunderwing characters, and turns into a similarly-colored jet-like aircraft.Kurona wrote:Can someone point me to why Nitro apparently makes a decent Thunderwing?

Why not repaint some of the excellent DOTM Cyberverses I wonder?
Anyway, that Legion Hot-Rod is a must have for me.

Right? Honestly his color scheme and weird face make me really excited for the legion and even the deluxe.

Agreed. Not only that, but if they had to make up a jet mode for his toy, he probably doesn't transform in the movie.

btw is that the actual jet mode of the toy of Nitro
coz if it were....then that's pretty cool but i'd rather have Nitro as Leader Class or even wait til Wei Jiang does him(+ Megs)

Don't bother, it will probably suck.
I'm boycotting Transformers until the prices go down.
Anyone care to join me?

I didn't realise the Voyager and Leader versions were so different in transformation.
This is the back of my voyager Megs
No wings. Because they're wrapped around the lower legs so well you barely notice them at all. The nose cone of the jet is folded back at the top with the arm cannon being completely seperate from it and integrated into the back of the jet in alt mode. Also flight stand port!
Can store weapon when not in use.
Front view cos he's so nice.
Side view showing the backpack here barely sticks out either and he's overall a really tidy figure especially for a jet-former which are commonly very kibbly usually due to wings.

In regards to Optimus Prime, what versions are actually new molds in the TLK line?

Wave 1 Voyager.

When I bought my TLK Optimus Prime voyager, one of the leg joints was stuck. It wouldn't go sideways. I contemplated returning it before I got my hobby nippers and used it to poke around the joint, finally making it move again.
Anyone else got a similar case or I just had a isolated one?
Also, are they trying to pass off the red bits in Ravenspar as the eyes?

If you see any cool new figures are popping up at stores near you, use the sightings section to keep everyone posted!

The voyager is very worth owning IMO.
There is also the Turbo Changer with the mask gimmick. the toy is great but it have NO paint for the bot mode. I FIXED THAT.

.
Minor flaws aside (no wrists, and could use better knee articulation), yeah, i agree. It's a great toy, and also the first toy we have of this design in the voyager scale.

Only the Voyager Optimus mold is truly new for The last Knight when it comes to Optimus toys.

The one-step turbo changer is not a completely new mold, along that Bee and Grimlock?

So Walmart has "Autobots Unite" and Toys 'R Us has "Mission to Cybertron", correct? Kinda sad that Hot Rod is a retool of Lockdown in almost all incarnations and mostly exclusive to Walmart. He's the Stinger of TLK

Did you say mostly because there is that non exclusive Tiny Turbo changer?
And yeah, he is totally the Stinger (which was also a BB inspired bot) but at least we are getting a deluxe here. And plus, the legion is not lockdown but one of the good DOTM legion molds Kanrabat raves about.

I'll have to disagree, I checked it and no details match. The transformation is the same aside from the arms, but as far as I can see, it's all-new.

I think so too. It's not because the transformation is the same that it's the same mold.

I asked this back in page 119, but was not really satisfied with that answer.
Looking over both molds it looks like the transformation is very very similar, but everything else is different.
If it is a retool, its so extensive, it may as well just be a new mold.
