We knew that the Cyberverse toys had code names derived from Seinfeld characters. What we did not know is that we would have to search for these toys under those names to find them once they were released. But don't worry, in case you didn't know that Acid Storm was Uncle Leo, we have the links below for you to find these toys, and purchase them if you feel so inclined. While they are on the simpler side, some of the sculpting is downright gorgeous. Check out some shots of Megatron's noggin below as an example. Each are around the $19 mark and are ship and sold through Amazon, and thus Prime eligible.
Big thanks to Scotty P for finding these for us.

Or that Newman couldn't be a Dinobot.
Oh well, I just hope this amusing practice continues.

Yeah, some miscommunication there. The Hasbro.com bio used male pronouns while the episode that first featured Acid Storm had the character voiced by a woman using an unambiguously female voice.Nemesis Primal wrote:Bounti76 wrote:Be reminded that this is a kiddie show, and the toys match that, quality wise.

'Course, none of the dialogue was anything character-specific. Just some grunting and a single line of "Yes, captain," spoken to Slipstream. If not for the end credits specifically identifying this Seeker as Acid Storm, it could have just been any generic female green Seeker, as she also didn't have Acid Storm's exact color layout seen in the Hasbro character art. Nor did her partner really resemble Thrust that much despite the end credits likewise labeling him as such.

Keep in mind that Transformers has a history of spitting in the face of science. Remember Starscream having that massive drill in his arm in that one G1 episode? And how Galvatron can be any size he wants? (I know that part was a dream sequence, but it was still fun.)

Megatron's gun mode can be any size he wants.

Neil Degrasse Tyson has had to repeatedly disillusion Star Wars fans asking if lightsabers could actually work; is there any record of Transfans asking him if personal subspace pockets are just baseless magic or something technology could actually pull off in 3 or 4 centuries?

She has an excellent face sculpt and deco. Seems to have a pretty decent transformation as well. What's the gimmick here? Push the wings down and the fans spin?
Looks very similar to the RID2015 version.

I think it's like Starscream's, only without the spinning waist. Just the wings open up to reveal details or something. Personally, I really want to get her.

That's when you look for reviews
Windblade's gimmick is a bit less obvious, but when you push the cockpit on the back down, the bottom of the wings (ending up on the front in robot mode) swing up, making the turbines spin.

Sounds fun and I saw she has knees! I have all the other Windblades...JelZe GoldRabbit wrote:Decepticon Stryker wrote:carytheone wrote:What's the gimmick here? Push the wings down and the fans spin?

after the disappoint of Starscream
and
the surprise of Shockwave
i am leaning towards her and Acid.

Also of interest, is that Meijer is having a 20% off sale on Transformers toys till November 10th, making now a good time to start looking for deals on Transformers you want.
Will these make it to your collection? Let us know in the Energon Pub and stay tuned to Seibertron for all the latest news and reviews.

I don't think so: Warrior Class Optimus Prime has no hitch, it looks like the trailer relies on the stick-out feet for the connection.

Still not used to the fact that my nearest store closed down and has now been replaced by a kitchen showroom store. There are no Transformer figures in that building now.

Still after what happened with TRU, you would think Hasbro would stop giving them exclusives

Irrelevant. Because those TrU exclusives will be distributed by other means in the USA anyway.

Even more relevant when we don't have the equivalent of Target and such here in the UK. Added to even more, when instead of stepping up too fill the void, the toy "specialists" we have, have actually gotten worse since TRU closed doors here.

Yeesh... One would assume that someone, somewhere would pick up the slack. Even if it's only online stores.
By the way, even if we have Toys R Us in Quebec, many exclusives don't get distributed here because of random language laws.
RIP every single MPM Transformers after MPM Optimus.

Why? It is a thriving and profitable entreprise in the places that still have it, like Asia and Canada. Hasbro will still give it exclusives, and Entertainment Earth or Amazon could handle those exclusives for the US (if they care to).

I don't know, I would be cagey about giving Exclusive to a company that nearly went bankrupt

Canadian and Asian Toys R Us were never really in trouble. That's why they are the only ones that remain.

I dont think you understand what happened. It WENT bankupt. Toysrus as we know it is gone. Over. Those how owned it and managed it no longer have it in their possession. The company is instead now independently owned by different people in different countries.
It is now under Farfax capital in Canada, the company headed by Canada's version fo Warren Buffet. So yeah, its a new company and better than it was financially for the past 25 years.
Its a better option than Walmart (at least for me). Walmart treats their exclusives like pure garbage. Either going online only or just outright never bothering to list them and selling them away to market six stores.

Don't count on it. Lately, only the Optimuses for little kids deserves a trailer.
I have that "deluxe" Rescue Bots one. It's sweet for what it is.
The only way I'll ever buy a Siege Optimus is if there's some special edition at the leader price point. It would have a proper Cybertronian trailer that have a geewunesque battle station mode. Complete with a non-transforming Cybertronian Roller who also work as gun storage. I'd be down for that.

Below you will find images of:
One Steps: Bumblebee, Prowl, Megatron, Optimus Prime
Warrior: Soundwave, Prowl and Hotrod. All of these have action features, such as Hotrod's flip out flames and Lazerbeak coming out of Soundwave's chest.
Ultra: Optimus Prime and Slipstream. These are voyager sized.
Ultimate: Bumblebee. This is leader sized. He has a great looking alt mode.
