Can't say for sure because the image is small and it's in a package.

Those Vehicons were based on cars in the movie akin to Longarm in 2007 and Rollbar in Aoe and they only had one original each mold anyways and it was not a deluxe.
As far as we know Berserker is not based on any particular vehicle in the movie and Berserker is also part of wave 1 with Bee and Barricade who are booth very important characters in the upcoming movie, yes Slash is in the same wave too but first it's a repaint not a new mold and secondly Slash or multiples of him were supposed to be in Aoe being in plenty of concept art so for all we know Slash is in TLK this time. most of these toy only characters come in later waves such as the Aoe Vehicon you mentioned who was an end of the line figure.
Also importantly Berserker has two new molds for him something Rollbar doesn't even have since his deluxe figure was just a repaint of a Generations figure as well as being in an exclusive box set I'm sure that Berserker is one of those hi and bye characters who won't be named in the movie but then again we also had no idea Nitro was a character until we saw him in a trailer then his toy and name being leaked for all we know Berserker never transforms in the movie.
I think Berserker is either one of the cons in the high security prison that was mentioned in early information or the junkyard with disposed cons who might or might not be dead which is for sure where Barricade comes from.

I did say that he did only get one mold.
Point is that Berserker has two new original molds to himself while Rollbar only had one along with most toy only characters Rollbar's deluxe was only a repaint of a Generations figure using the head that doesn't fit with the movie aesthetic seriously the boxart has the Crosscut head and his one step has a similar head which fits in much better.
Why invest money into two new molds for a toy only character instead of say Onslaught, Hooligan or Mohawk who are in the movie?
I don't think Berserker is important or anything heck I doubt he will transform but I still think he will appear he could always be fulfilling a role similar to Demolishor and Sideways from ROTF one of the behind scenes videos from awhile ago had a Crankcase head prop in a blink and you'll miss it shot.

i dont understand what the debate is about, Beserker is in the film. We see him in that same shot with megatron and onslought in the trailer.
He's right in the middle of this pic:
And if onslought gets a toy, it will just be a retool of rotf longhaul since they reused that model for him. Hell, hes even the same colour, so technically we already have a toy of him in the form of Longhaul. I have a junker with some sump truck parts missing, that will make a pefect Movie onslought.

A bomb just exploded into the quote box.
But yeah, since AoE, legions are absurdly expensive and come with no weapons at all.
If I buy any, it will only when on clearance when the TLK line phase out.

Since AoE, there's a great apathy going on in movie legions. The golden years for this size class was the DOTM's and Prime's Cyberverse times. Those were glorious toys! There was even some playsets. Unfortunately, the sales were surely lackluster for that concept to last for only DOTM and Prime.

Well Megatron comes with a weapon since his cannon is part of his alt mode, so at least there is that (kinda like Legion megatronus).
Posted by Underc3211 on March 31st, 2017 @ 4:18pm CDT
But dear god does prime need paint. At least they rereleased the good legion but it looks like a production sample not a finished product. Also this is the second time movie grimlock used that mold and they still haven't retooled or done anything to change it.

Uhh Will that's not Berserker that's Hooligan the two have different models Berserker is just Crankcase with according to the toy no new parts while Hooligan uses Crowbar but with new vehicle kibble.
I wouldn't be talking about Berserker like this if he actually was in some trailers.
Is the same as Crowbar
And a retool of Long Haul wouldn't even work with the two turning into completely different vehicles in different proportions Long Haul's dump truck toy is short while Onslaught's tow truck Truck is pretty darn long.
Onslaught also has a minigun on his left arm and a big claw thing on his right.

The very beginning?
Well if I remember right his name along with Mohawk who is confirmed by the way Ryan (Seibertron) can vouch for me came from the very same rumor which spoke of Squeeks (who was revealed and confirmed that day) Cogman, Mini Dinobots, Megatron's jet mode and I think the TRF as well.
This also came from the very same website that talked about rumors that came true back in AOE during the very early days including Hound, Drift, Lockdown, Dinobots and maybe Galvatron too.
Hooligan and Mohawk's names were confirmed by people on set and the times Bay invited the fans to two separate events I would not be making claims if I did not know they were true plus I know things plenty of little things but still things.
Edit: To clarify Hooligan is the rusty teal VW van.
Posted by BombshellDaBug on March 31st, 2017 @ 5:41pm CDT
Jokes aside, the only ones I really dig are Grimlock, Megatron, Crosshairs and Dragonstorm (not revealed in this post, but seen at Toy Fair). Grimlock at least has movie-accurate paint this time around, though if it's suffering from too much mold degradation I can fall back on the AoE Legion I already own.
Megatron looks really good for a Legion. That being said, all of these TLK Megatron toys look great. And it's nice to finally get a Legion Crosshairs. It's a shame that Dragonstorm now appears to be showing up in a later wave, though. He's the new character that I'm most curious about. Plus, you'd think Hasbro would want to promote a newer character with a new mold over repaints depicting established characters.

I am sorry but I just dont understand. Didnt you just say that Hooligan is the guy who looks like beserker? Thats exactly what you wrote above when you said I was wrong.
So here is my question, who is the dread character in that shot if it isnt beserker? And where was it confirmed that the dread is not beserker? I have looked through our news and there is 0 official confirmation that its not beserker we see in that pic. If you find the article, please let me know because I would like to be informed as much as possible.
As far as I know, that dread in the shot is Beserker. The toys dont always look exactly like the CG models, Barricade is a good example of that. A better example is leader Optimus whos toy looks nothing like the CG model. And yet that is a toy of Optimus, so this Beserker toy is a toy of that Dread in the image, simple as that.

Edit: I can't find it on Seibertron but Tfw2005 has the original "rumors" http://news.tfw2005.com/2016/12/06/transformers-last-knight-plot-roundup-329777
Hooligan is the dread in the trailer but Berserker is a different character is what I said the dread in the trailer has rusty Vw parts their hard to spot but they are there when Seibertron and all the other fans went to the first event somebody there confirmed that the Vw truck is a character named Hooligan who looks like a dread.
I don't just look at Seibertron stuff most of the things I know (besides the other things I know) come from people who talked to people who work on set and from the Tfw2005 movie board and there is info coming from there all the time.
Plus Berserker uses Crankcase's cgi model which is not who the character in the trialer looks like Hooligan is a Crowbar reuse so if Berserker is Hooligan not only do they get the names wrong but they have the entire character's robot and vehicle wrong.
Edit: The face is not the same either
These faces
Are not this face
It's this face (Crowbar from DOTM)

Not saying that can't be the case (I'm a terrible unfocused explainer I could of told you this much better in a real face to face conversation I'm just horrible with a keyboard)
In fact I do have a feeling that Berserker could just be a replacement for Hooligan in the toyline since Volkswagen is a little stingy when it comes to "war" media but Takara was able to get the licences for the VW beetle so who knows the Crankcase head was seen as a prop in a behind the scenes video but for like 2 seconds I'm pretty sure most people would of missed it.
But if Berserker is a replacement then why did Hasbro go with a remake of the Crankcase body when they already had a mold which they just used in that AOE boxset that came with Rollbar who was just a repaint and not his own mold instead of making a toy of Crowbar who never got the deluxe treatment and would be much more accurate.
I'm thinking Berserker is just a minor character going to be killed off like Sideways in ROTF but I'm not saying Berserker is in the film I'm just saying he most likely is and if not then well that would be weird considering Hasbro's current thinking of keeping toy only characters with new molds to a minimum that sort of started with Dotm and then kept going in Aoe.

A decently engineered Commander Class Longhaul for example would look terrific and with some tweaks they might even be able to get several remoulds out of it too.
Then they can use the Legion class for small characters who make sense in that size - like we still are lacking a Transformable Brains toy for example.
I think the DX-9 people or someone like that should consider making that sort of thing too.
Hopefully more original moulds will show up in later waves. The number of repaints and mild remoulds in the 1st wave or two of various sizes is a bit concerning.
Especially when they have a whole movie worth of stuff to catch up on.
I was expecting to get some small Dinobots - not the same Grimlock again that isn't even Grimlock. The Terrorcons are a proof of concept that they can work at that size.
I mean how can they not make the dinobabies in legion class ? or perhaps a deluxe class 3 pack ?

Yeah, the last actual time it happened was... 2005, I recall? Which was an isolated case and until that point there hadn't been a GPS incident for some time. Again, this is just from memory, so I could be totally wrong.
If I am right though, quick note is that 2005 was 12 years ago. Let that sink in. I'm 20, I'm not supposed to feel old this quickly dammit.
