Hey, so I picked up the Bumblebee's greatest hits Soundwave figure up, and I was wondering something. A while back, it was said that the figure didn't come with his weapons. Has anyone reported them coming with weapons? I'm asking because mine actually did come with his grey blaster and shoulder cannon battery.

You took the guns out of the box? Because the way they are placed is kinda "hidden" for someone who is in too much of a hurry to take the figures out. And the guy may have dumped the box, along the weapons still in it, in the garbages.
That's what (may have) happen previously.

Yeah, I took them out of the box. I just got Soundwave and Doombox out as well. I do see how someone could not find the 2 pieces depending on how they open the box and throw them away with the box.
Oh well, I hope the guy who doesn't have the weapons doesn't mind. (Which I assume he doesn't, as he already had the standard Soundwave.)

Mine came with the weapons as well, and they were a bit tucked away on the right side of the box. In all the boxes I saw actually... Except for the guy that was missing them. Not his fault at all, they simply weren't there and he even took pics of the opened box. Nothing...
Mind you, not having a dedicated space for accessories is a bad thing, things like that are bound to happen.

New role play items have been found at Toysrus Canada. These are two sets of converting costumes with deluxe masks. One is for Bumblebee and part of the Transformers Bumblebee movie line while the other is of Optimus Prime and sports labeling for the Transformers Studio Series line. Both are being sold concurrently though. As you can see from the images below, the big feature here is that the costumes have a vehicle and robot mode where the child can unfold panels to turn a vehicle front into robot detail across the body.
These were priced at $29.99 Canadian. Have you seen these in your local stores?

After having some awesome in-hand images and a video review for the Takara Tomy Bumblebee Movie BB-02 Optimus Prime, we have even more images of the new leader sized figure! This figure is based on the Age of Extinction Evasion Mode Optimus Prime, but upscaled and given some new transformation tricks and some new weapons. He also features improved posability.
The new images show us even more comparison images for the figure, all courtesy of Alfes2010 on Twitter, which include MP-10, Power of the Primes Leader Prime, Evasion Mode Prime, and the new Power Surge Bumblebee.
We also have a new video review courtesy of lichlute on Youtube, showing us the transformation sequence, which was left out of the previous video review due to a factory defect.
Check it all out below, and let us know what you think in the comments section below!

The Bumblebee movie is on our horizon, and the toyline can be found in your local toy store. But what is missing? That is right, the One Step Changers. A staple of... "culture" since Age of Extinction. As is tradition, we have reveals of new Bumblebee Movie inspired One Step Changers, by TakaraTomy. These are for the Turbo Change toyline, which was used after the The Last Knight for simple toys only.
Dengeki Hobby issued an article showcasing these new toys showing:
TC-14 Optimus Prime (reuses engineering from Age of Extinction Galvatron/first Cyberverse Optimus Prime)
TC-15 Barricade (redeco of The Last Knight Barricade)
TC-16 Bumblebee (reuses engineering from first Robots in Disguise Bumblebee)
These guys are clearly meant for the Bumblebee movie based on their designs... except Barricade, who was most likely thrown in due to his presence in the film.
These guys are gonna be up for grabs on December 27th, 2018 for ¥1,296 (around $11). TSo if you like what you see, be sure to snag them! And remember to tell us your thoughts in the Pub forums below!

Any shots of Legendary Optimus next to one of the MB Leader Primes or MPM Prime? I want to see how well they scale. He does look good with MPM VW Bee so I might get him just for that.

So is it a 50/50 chance with Soundwave having accessories or was that one incident just an outlier? Because I really want that Soundwave but I want to be sure I'm getting the accessories.

Posted by Emerje on November 2nd, 2018 @ 6:58am CDT
Hmm, shorter than I had hoped. I'm sure he's modern Leader sized, but where he's technically not part of a line with scale (and Japanese-only where they do occasional odd sizes) I had hoped he'd be a little bigger.

Yup, he is, I felt a little ripped off until I saw that he was indeed the same size.
I cant find it now, but another pic shows him to be exactly the same hieght as the AOE leader.

With Halloween come and gone, the holiday shopping season has started and Toysrus is kicking it off with a bang. They have released their holiday catalogue with two weeks of savings. Bumblebee (the character and the movie) is heavily featured both on the cover, with Transformers toys savings in the book and even a full page advertisement in the back for an upcoming event.
The event will feature the appearance of the Beetle car in two Toysrus stores where people can take images, you can see which stores and the times in the image below. As for savings, as can be imagined, they are centered around toylines featuring Bumblebee so Studio Series, the Bumblebee movie and Cyberverse. The savings are around 20-25% off and start today. We have also posted below an image from the catalogue of all the other November events which include Harry Potter workshops and Santa visits.
This is all of course a huge contrast to the quiet relaunch of Toysrus in the US which confirms that at the moment, Geoffrey's Toybox will only be pop up blocks in grocery stores selling only toys under the Toysrus IP (ie. Imaginarium, Journey Girls) and thus unafiliated with Hasbro.
Update: Images of the in store decorations and selection have been added.

That's like, 5 different toylines. I wouldn't be surprised if there was stuff from the Unicron Trilogy in that mess.

I know depression rates are up during the holidays, but damn, why does that Geoffrey look so sad? He should be super happy to be selling toys to kids, but he looks like he just wants to die!

Simba Dickie, a producer of die-cast replica toys and R/C cars, will have plenty of their own tie-ins for the new Bumblebee movie coming this December. One such item has been previewed and for us that is a Rusty-marking Bumblebee VW Beetle Die-Cast via the Majothèque de Majorev Facebook profile. The car is available in the 1:64 scale and features a die-cast design in a blister package with a rusty deco. The Bumblebee vehicle should be available this winter to retailers in plenty of time. Be sure to check out the images below and let us know what you think in our Energon Pub Forums!

I was in TK Maxx in the UK today, and I saw a 4 pack of TLK Bee's car and bot mode and the Bumblebee movie Beetle and Bee's bot mode. Sort of like an evolution pack, and it costed £12.99. Sorry I didn't get any pictures!

So were these die cast cars or proper transformers?

Thanks to Podcaster ScottyP, we have word that the new Bumblebee movie Power Plus figure Shatter has now been sighted at US retail! Shatter is a reuse of the Dropkick/Hot Rod skeleton, now in a new red muscle car look complete with Shatter's head. This figure uses one of the little energon igniter engines, which when activated powers the vehicle mode forward. This engine is compatible with all of the Energon Igniter classes of figures.
This is the first of 2 Shatter toys from the Igniters line, the second of which will feature her jet mode.
Shatter was found in Cary, North Carolina at a Target for $12.99, so head on out to your locals stores and let us know what you find and what you pick up!

OH, I bought that at the Northville Meijer a week and a half ago, but had no idea it was news.
My first time handling that mold, though I bought the other two a week later. The igniters themselves are clunky, obtrusive, and don't work as great as I'd like, but the supercharged modes for this mold and Bug Bumblebee are really growing on me for some reason.
