We have some nice new reveals today for the Cyberverse line. Entertainment Earth has put up listing for waves 8 and 9 of the warrior class figures. Most are repacks, as has been the norm with the warrior class ever since it started 5 years ago, but it does include one new mold: Mega Axe Attack Optimus Prime. This new Optimus Prime seems to be sporting a Cybertronian alt mode, which works well with the other toys in the waves which also sport Cybertronian alt modes. He will be in both wave 8 and 9 accompanied by various repacked figures, including Hammerstrike which some are saying is the best warrior yet.
Here are the breakdowns for these 2 upcoming waves:
Wave 8
TRA CYBERVERSE WARRIOR SHOCKWAVE
TRA CYBERVERSE WARRIOR CYBERTRONIAN BUMBLEBEE
TRA CYBERVERSE WARRIOR HAMMERBYTE
TRA CYBERVERSE WARRIOR "new" OPTIMUS PRIME
Wave 9
TRA CYBERVERSE WARRIOR GNAW
TRA CYBERVERSE WARRIOR CYBERTRONIAN BUMBLEBEE
TRA CYBERVERSE WARRIOR CYBERTRONIAN MEGATRON
TRA CYBERVERSE WARRIOR "new" OPTIMUS PRIME
All toys are packaged equally, nothing is shortpacked even though that term doesn't have the same resonance when it comes to repacks.
We have another brand new toy revealed with NDA toys showing us pictures of Ultra Class Thunderhowl. While his look is similar to the deluxe, there are some big differences such as the red cape and the wolf head being smaller in proprtion to the rest of the body compared to the deluxe. This makes for a much sleeker torso. He has two weapons and the wold head is removable for a different robot mode look. He does have the Energon battle armor gimmick on top of all this, making for lots of play options for kids.

Even though I never watched a single Cyberverse episode, I'm with you on this one. The TF main line need fresh blood. But don't milk it to death like Windblade. We need MANY more new and original characters and Cyberverse is sure a fertile ground!

And especially if they keep Thunderhowl's Cyberverse personality as a chivalrous "Knight of the Primes". He is wonderful!

You can pretty much just skip season 1 since it's like a completely different show. Though, Season 1 does have some decent-to-great episodes, it's just that it's beginning is very meh and the gimmick of Bumblebee's radio clips does get old very fast. But once it gets going, it's good and only gets better. Season 2 is pretty solid all around while Season 3 is phenomenal.-Kanrabat- wrote:Sabrblade wrote:And especially if they keep Thunderhowl's Cyberverse personality as a chivalrous "Knight of the Primes".

No, Hammerbyte is a brand new character.
I too hope characters from Cyberverse get absorbed into the broader fandom. Iaconus and Croaton definitely need to join the Titan ranks. And Thunderhowl, Hammerbyte, Wild wheel, Meteorfire, Clobber, and Shadow Striker deserve to keep going. And we need Whirl, Rack n' Ruin, Dead End, Astrotrain etc. need to keep these personalities and prominence. This totally was the show that put Dead End on the map (just look at my profile pic!).
I like the looks of Thunderhowl's toy. Both of his toys look great, I think i will get both of them.
Funny how the Ultra's of characters like Clobber, RnR, and Thunderhowl are much better than the rest. Same with Grimlock and what looks like Iaconus in the Ultimate class.
Shame though, I was looking forward to seeing ultra Skullsmasher, but still no reveal for them. Smasher and Iaconus are the only 2 that still need official images

And Rescue Bots Academy is even introducing a third (fourth if you count the Dweller as the third) new Titan: Citadel Secondus (spoiler tags since the episode hasn't aired in the U.S. yet). So now is a mighty fine time for all-new Titans.D-Maximal_Primal wrote:Iaconus and Croaton definitely need to join the Titan ranks.

I am so jealous. I can only watch part of S2, and that’s because I cheat and go on Dailymotion. Netflix only has S1 so far. But yeah, amazing time for new Titans! I feel like if Cyberverse got a fourth season, the mystery of the Dweller, I think he’s Vigilem, personally,, would have been a gold mine of a story arc that the writing team would’ve knocked out of the park.

That was fast. We just learnt that this pretty cool looking figure exists and now it can be yours. Transformers fan T-Hybrid spotted it at an Apple Valley Target in Minnesota. They took some extra images to show that the cape might be purposefully detachable, which could make for a less goofy wolf mode.
This voyager sized toy is just shy of $20.
The images were originally posted on the TFW2005 boards. You can click here to see some official images of this figure.

Odd color choices if he's blue in the show. Having said that he looks like he's the offspring of skullcruncher and carnivac - and as disturbing as that is, it makes him cooler.

I plan to as well. They both look good so far, and I want to support the characters I like, the new characters that I liked, and the fact that it looks to be a good and enjoyable toy.
Hopefully I can fit them onto my Cyberverse shelf. They only have the 1 shelf! And I still gotta get Iaconus, Thunderhowl, Arcee, and Maccadam up there. And maybe Skullsmasher if they actually ends up coming out

I got to play around with my Cheetor and I gotta admit, I'm impressed. It must be the cleanest Cheetor toy in bot mode ever made. Yes, even beating the MP. Sure, in cheetah mode he wear boots, but it make him look like an upgrade to the classic Puss-n-Boots.
As for the armor gimmick, it's pretty silly that this cat is wearing a whole DESTROYER as armor, but it's very cool despite the limited articulation points.
Maybe worth full price, but it's a must if found on sale!

I got it once but really disliked it so I put it back. Not sure what it was exactly, I just know I wasn't a fan.
Several of these figures have actually been disappointing me lately. I just got Rack N Ruin and I really dislike it. The extra articulation does not help the figure much. The the shoulder articulation being obstructed by that big wheel on his arms, creating a clearance issue and resulting in the arm popping off. Plus that alt mode looks unfinished. Will be returning him.
The other one that dissapointed me was Deluxe Hot Rod (Grimlock was fine though, I have no issues with him). Hot Rod is also hindered in his articulation with the way he is done in robot mode. I do like the alt mode though. I did make fun of its rather boxy shape but this toy is a good realization of that change.

You mean you still haven't tried Cheetor yet? Or did you bought it then return it?
Anyway, I'm very selective in my Cyberverse purchases. I've yet to buy any deluxes. The only ones that I'm looking forward to right now are Arcee and that wolf guy. I'll buy them both full price when they come out.

Several fans have been buying the newly found Transformers Cyberverse Ultra Thunderhowl and now we have images and first impressions. For one, we have confirmation that you can remove the cape (though there are no images of the Wolf mode without it) and we also see that the tail is not the sword but the sheath instead.
Here are quick descriptions of the toy from Dirge121 and einhazard who shared their thoughts on the TFW2005 boards along with the images you see below.

Dirge121 wrote:Ball joints in the shoulders and hips
Swivels at the biceps and thighs
Hinge knees and elbows
Ball jointed wrists and Universal ankles
Wolf head can open its mouth and pivot up and down at the base of the neck and the base of the skull.
He’s really only missing a neck swivel in robot mode.
einhazard wrote:Pros:
Cool design; I like that the tail is a sheath rather than a sword
The energon armor isn't super obtrusive (you can just straight-up ignore its existence if you want)
Transformation that's a little more complex than I thought. (but it's still basically the same as the armor-up cheetor)
crazy articulation for an Ultra
Cons:
The cape MUST BE REMOVED to do the armor but they don't make it easily removable (this is the worst part, and would not be a hassle if you didn't have to apply a stupid amount of force to get it to clip in. Ironically, you can transform him just fine with the cape on)
You have to pull the wolf head off the chest to make the armor work
Floppy hips

This! For sure!
Please remind me friends, we are getting a Deluxe of this guy too right?
Because this version looks pretty dang cool. I might like to have this biggon over the deluxe.

Yes, there is a Deluxe too. But the wolf head doesn't appear to detach from that version.Cobotron wrote:ZeldaTheSwordsman wrote:I think having to take the wolf head off for the armor can be forgiven in light of what a cool sword hilt it makes

Shame that we're getting two nice Thunderhowl molds and neither of them are the right colors. The prototype on the back of the Ultra box is pretty close, but then they go and make him green. I don't get it, how could that happen? Usually it's the other way around and the prototype is funny colored while the final figure is more accurate, but this is strange. It's like Hasbro came up with the black scheme for the prototype, but the animation went green and then both swapped not realizing the other was swapping and ended up with still the wrong colors.

Wouldn't be the first time something like that happened. A recent example being Bumblebee from the latest Movie. It's one thing for a normal retail toy. But even the freaking MPM is wrong.

One way or the other, it's always a matter of miscommunication.

Basically ZeldaTheSwordsman doesn't think the animators should have ceded to the directors request that Bee lose his signature door wings in a bid to make bee look smaller.

The whole color situation with Thunderhowl's toys vs. his cartoon model feels like Armada Tidal Wave all over again.

I was thinking the same thing, although that at least had a reason given. This, we don't know yet.Sabrblade wrote:The whole color situation with Thunderhowl's toys vs. his cartoon model feels like Armada Tidal Wave all over again.

It is a shame neither toy is particularly accurate. But both seem pretty good, so it can be excused!

I really like the play between the sword, wolf head, and tail. Definitely recommended if you are looking for something different
