SDCC 2015 - Hasbro's Official Transformers Products Images Photogallery

Some one really screwed up the victorion images.




Some images are repeated and not all the members are shown!

All three combiners look smashing.

Can't wait for Victorion, do we know if hasbro is charging the inflated price for the G2 combiners?

Comibiner War: Finish the fight 2016 Dun dun daaaaaaa.

Where are the rest of Victorion's images?


Were missing


Rust Dust's alt mode


Stormclash's robot mode


and both of Dustup's pictures.

You know, Victorion's deco is a little garish, but it fits in well with the G2 combiners. I like her special hands and feet, I hope that starts a trend and we see more of those.

Probably not, she is a special case, so she gets the new limb attachments, besides, I doubt that hasbro would change up the hands/feet in the middle of the year.

No official product images for "Betatron" as of yet. Interesting...

Also, I guess Scattorshot is a passenger spacejet?

Pete actually confirmed we were getting a g2 menasor in a podcast way back before this years botcon had began

How is it a mess? It is definitely some sort of prototype, it's chunky like the actual scattershot, and the first thing I thought when I saw the pic was 'Scattershot', so it pulls the job off

I'm OK with Scattershot being a remold of Silverbolt. He just needs an actual Computron head and not a recolored Superion head. I was bummed yesterday ... i really thought they were going to unveil a proper Computron/Technobots set.

I've mentioned a few times, that if he is wave 3, he wouldn't be revealed proper until NY toy fair of next year, like defensor was for this year. Last year we were given two combiners up front, like this year. Superion and Menasor then, and Bruticus and Skyreign now, so we really shouldn't be expecting any new reveals until some time next year

But yes, betathingy was a massive c*&k-tease, and yes, I think he should have a new head, I assume.

On another note, could you possibly ask the hasbro booth if the deco on victorion is final, or is it possible to add additional details that couldn't be hand painted?

I could have sworn that it was reported that Scattorshot was a Wave-mate with Onslaught.

He is, but I was referring to the reveal of the technobots not being for a while.

While I was talking to Hasbro yesterday, they teased that there might be more to "Betatron". I can't remember exactly what they said but they alluded to there being more by saying something along the lines of beta being the first, kind of like betamax back in the 80s. And they said it with a smile/grin and maybe a little wink. Whatever they said to me gave me hope that we'll get the rest of the Technobots. I'm most bummed about the head ... he needs Computron's head. Without it, it's just a Superion recolor.

I figured, by the look of the various parts, he was literally a work in progress, something they had been adding parts too in their spare time from a 3d printer, or something, but he does need a new head, probably wouldn't be too hard to just make a new front half and screw it on, I know the secret galvatronus head took a long time to be revealed, so there is precedent for it being kept a 'secret', here's hoping.

I'm guessing Betatron is a "beta test" of Scattorshot as a combiner torso. Also, I'm glad Hasbro admits even they thought "Betamax" when they made up this name. That's pretty funny. I think we do need to keep an eye on the ongoing fiction with IDW to see how this plays out.

Still missing Stormclash's Robot mode image but the rest are there.

Thanks for letting me know! Hasbro kept the file name the same but switched the image from the vehicle mode to the robot mode so I didn't catch it because I just went by filename comparisons. I've updated the picture.

I try!

Did you notice that the tailfin section on scattershot is different *colors* from robot to vehicle mode?

Looks the same to me.

Sorry, meant colors, white in robot mode and red in vehicle mode

Good news everyone!

I was sitting here, analyzing some of the shots of Scattorshot and Betatron, when I noticed some interesting details, specifically regarding the combined mode's "chest plate" and head.



First up is the Chest Plate. I've included pics of:
1. The CG Render of Scattorshot
2. The "Mock-up" SDCC Scattorshot
3. The "Mock-up" SDCC Betatron
4. Combiner Wars Silverbolt
5. Combiner Wars Superion

As you can see, the CG version of Scattorshot has different paint apps than what was shown at SDCC. There's a division in colors about midway down the piece that becomes Betatron's chest that isn't present on the SDCC Mock-ups. The "latch" that swings the chest pieces into place during transformation is also differently colored (circled yellow) while being all the same color on the Mock-ups. This color difference would result in the same type of pseudo-chestplate that Superion has, but cast in red and Maroon, which is Computron's colorscheme (Although G1 Computron's Chestplate is titanic, so you'll have to settle for a smaller one).



Next is the head. Due to how Superion's head is stored in Silverbolt, his antennae poke out of Silverbolt's stomach. The same seems to be true of Scattorshot and Betatron. What's interesting is that the CG version of Scattorshot has Maroon antennae for Betatron, which again, is what G1 Computron has. The antennae also seem to be cast in the same shade of Maroon as Scattorshot. The Mock-up, on the other hand, has literally the same color antennae (and combiner head) as Superion, and is a color found nowhere on Scattorshot. The same can be said of the red of Betatron's visor and the black of his helmet. That's a pretty different and cost-inefficient (This IS a retail Hasbro product we're talking about) use of paint just for a single part.

All of this makes me believe that Scattorshot was only recently finished, and they rushed to finish his robot and vehicle modes' detailing to make them presentable for SDCC, while not having a chance to touch Betatron. It seems they didn't even have a head ready, and just slapped a Superion head on.

So, at the very least, I'm confident that Betatron (and by extension, Computron), won't be the bland repaint he appeared as at SDCC, having better paint apps on his chest and head. I'd imagine that since the Superion head wasn't even painted, the Mock-up didn't even HAVE a Combiner head yet, and they quickly snagged a spare Superion head to use at the show (A headless combiner would be kind of pathetic). Maybe they're tooling a new head based off of Superion's for Betatron, as the antennae seem to be exactly the same. And really, you could just give CW Superion a mouth and nose and the right paint, and he'll look just like Computron.

Just wondering if anyone has created the thread yet for people who are waiting to buy stuff from SDCC on HTS. I need to know how many burgers and dogs to buy for the BBQ.

Thanks you're the best.

Well that's odd it was the correct Image when I checked earlier but it's turned into the vehicle mode Image again.

Traditionally Monday is a travel day for HTS so usually the wait begins on Tuesday. Of course those who wait for Tuesday find out things went up on Monday. Don't hate the player, hate the game
