Video Review of Transformers Cyberverse Warrior Class Soundwave

Sticking with Transformers Cyberverse for this news as we have word that Amazon now have the Action Attackers Ultimate Class Bumblebee in stock and ready to buy for $29.99! This toy converts fully from Robot to Car and has a spring loaded gimmick in its left arm to replicate Bee's stingers from the cartoon. The gimmick can also be used in vehicle mode.













What do you think about this version of Bumblebee? Will you be tracking him down for your personal bee hive? Let us know in the Energon Pub and stay tuned to Seibertron for all the latest news and reviews!

That first stock image with the kid... I can't wait for people to start making memes and hilarious comments. Go on, make my day

About Soundwave, he looks cool, might pick him up after I get Siege Megatron and SS38 Bumblebee Prime.

I got him already

here is my proof (Unboxing in German)


The Review will be up on Youtube tomorrow.

Hmm. Deciding whether I should order Slipstream from there or wait to find it in the stores. Shouldn't take too long for it to be available here.

Here is my review of cyberverse bumblebee in german

Just saw an Ultra Slipstream on eBay(listed as Chicago), so not too much longer.

EDIT: Whoops, that's Collection...

Fellow Seibertronian chuckdawg1999 has a review up for Transformers Cyberverse warrior Hot Rod. Here you will see what the articulation is, which has been a very detrimental factor for fans regarding this line. You will also see the gimmick in full display.

chuckdawg1999 wrote:Hot Rod is an ok figure but I think a lot of collectors and fans are going to find it lacking. The flame gimmick is ok but it really doesn't do much and doesn't look to have any offensive purpose. Transformation is fun but there isn't a stand out wow moment. I think only fans of the character will really want the toy.

I guess we'll have to wait for the WFC trilogy for another good Hot Rod.

Hot Rod was this close to being good. The action feature makes no sense, but the transformation is easy and fun. If the car mode's grille wasn't an empty hole it might have tipped it over the edge.

Poor Warrior Class, it was so great (most of the time) during RiD.

I think we have plenty of Hot Rods to hold us over for a good while, with the 2 MP releases, deluxe, and POTP rdimus, plus the recent G1 reissue and MP 09 Reissue. I think we are good.

This line is geared more towards children with how simplistic they are in transformation and paint application or lack of. I wouldn't expect greatness from this line. Best Hot Rod we've gotten IMO is MP and Titans Return and far as officially licensed goes. I do hope WFC siege gives us a really good one

Thanks to fellow collector Scottimus Prime, we have confirmation that Cyberverse Ultimate Class Bumblebee is starting to find its way into stores in the US! Found at a Walmart in Long Island, New York (Commack CDP), the figure was priced at the standard $28.84.

Bumblebee is the only Ultimate Class figure slated for this wave, there are still a sizable amount of figures to come in all other size classes (save One-Step Changers). If you are lucky enough to find any of these, or any other upcoming figures in other lines, let us know in your area’s sighting forum.

Best of luck, and happy hunting!

Thanks to fellow Seibertronian What’s Crackin’?, we now have a thorough video review of Cyberverse Warrior-Class Prowl. The review comes courtesy of Youtuber Long’s Toys, who goes into great detail regarding the figure’s features in both modes, transformation and articulation, of which he points out a potentially one-off minor issue regarding the figure’s shoulder. Long’s Toys also has a review for Prowl’s wavemate Soundwave, so be sure to check that out if you’re interested.

Check out the full review, and be sure to let us know what you think in the forums below. As always, be sure to let us know if you happen be lucky enough to find Prowl or any of his wavemates in your area's sighting forum.

they actually did prowl right without an imposing gimmick if only all the figures were like that i might get into this line but this one looks good

Funny story to share involving this figure...

Any collector that's been collecting awhile has no doubt seen the less than ethical practice of someone buying something, then they return the package with something else in it. There people obviously take advantage of those clerks that have little to no clue what they are taking back...

I have seen build a figure parts missing with the figure still there, I have seen a totally different toy stuck in the package (my fav was some pull back racers that were $1 in some Transformers Prime packages at TRU...ahhh, memories).

Anyways, I was at Wal-Mart doing my weekly toy hunt during lunch and low and behold, NEW Cyberverse stuff. With the exception of Acid Storm (not the greatest) I have pretty much overlooked the Cyberverse line... Nothing holds a candle to Prime (show or toys to me). Well I saw Prowl's package, but my brain stopped... Had to process what I was seeing... Cyberverse Prowl package, and Prowl was in it, but it was TFA Samurai Prowl!!

While I already have him, I just stood there and stared for a minute. Finally my hand just shot out and grabbed it... $15 for a figure that goes $40-100 online? WTH not.I got it home, opened it and whoever did it even threw the instructions in it. Who does that?

To this day I am stumped... Surely, the person that wanted Cyberverse Prowl and owned TFA Samurai Prowl knew what he was?? Were they being generous? Were they a total idiot?? Who knows... The moral of the story?

Cybeverse Prowl was spotted... Kinda... in the wild lol.

Seibertron's own chuckdawg1999 has provided us with a review of the new One-Step Action Attackers Megatron figure - featuring the transformation, the figure's 'firing' gimmick and the range of limited articulation. The review also compares the figure to the previous One-Step Megatron, citing the (relatively minor) differences in packaging to make sure viewers don't get caught out and purchase the wrong toy. The video is embedded below for ease of viewing.

chuckdawg1999 wrote:In what can be considered the natural evolution of One Step changers, Action Attackers feature the same simplified transformations but with the bonus of a weapon feature. Megatron features a firing Fusion cannon naturally and a robot mode that is closer to the show model than the previous One Step Megatron release. Ultimately there's nothing I can say that will steer most collectors towards this line but if you're looking to try something fun and simple, you can't go wrong with this line.

Has this review sparked an interest in the One-Step toys or are they still a miss step? Let us know in the Cyberverse discussion here on Seibertron.com.

One step? Now that's just lazy...

Am I the only one who can't stand 1 step Transformers?

They used to be much better. See BW Simple guys like the OG Rattrap

Wow this is entirely new one step Megatron I didnt expect that.

Thanks to Seibertron himself, we have the first sighting of the third wave of Transformers Cyberverse Action Attackers One Step Changers at US Retail! This wave consists of the previously reviewed Megatron, Optimus Prime, Prowl and Bumblebee. These differ from the previous releases as they follow on with the attack gimmick of the larger classes.

These were found at Target in Arlington Heights, Illinois.









What do you think of these? Do you think these are a step in the right direction for this size class? Let us know in the Energon Pub and stay tuned to Seibertron for all the latest news and reviews!

Shoot theres no pictures of the other side of the boxes to see the actual toys?

Prowl is doing something on his boxart that I never expected him to do;



He's smiling

Of course, he's punching somebody in the face.

Hopefully this means Ultra Slipstream isn't too far behind.

Actually, my money situation isn't too great right now. May have to postpone that purchase.

Yeah, I've seen Ultra Slipstream a small number of times at both Target and Walmart.

Good to know. Hadn't seen anything in the main page's sightings. Will keep an eye out.

They havent been reported well, I think its because so few fans care about this line.

There's a lovely review for you to enjoy in this thread.

Oh, be still, my beating heart.

Guys, Cyberverse is about to get cooler with all new Spark Armor toys!

https://kotaku.com/transformers-cyberverse-toys-get-armored-up-in-2019-1832513835

And look! They all have KNEES and ELBOWS!!

And SKY-BYTE!! Woohoo!!!

Who's the smartest shark around...

Don't forget there are cool toys coming out now.

Well, didn't see THAT coming. I do like Sky-Byte and it would be great if he was in the cartoon, but I haven't touched the Cyberverse toyline yet and I'm not sure if I'll get this new figure. Still, some non-G1 love is always appreciated!

There's always Season 2 for his appearance

My thoughts on this.

Thanks to a heads up from several Seibertronians, we have word that there is a new and seemingly revamped Cyberverse line coming to us this year! This new line, which seems to be dubbed the "Spark Armor" line, has a gimmick where you have a core character and then a secondary vehicle that then attaches to that character as armor, making a super mode of said character. Each figure is also notable in that the articulation seems to have drastically improved over other Cyberverse figures.

There are set to be 3 different size classes for these Spark Armor figures. The three classes include the $14.99 Battle Class of Jetfire, Prowl, Starscream, and right out of left field, Sky Byte(!!); the $24.99 Elite Class series, which includes Megatron, Bumblebee and Optimus Prime; and finally the $49.99 Ark Power Optimus Prime, which features a tiny reproduction of the Ark as armor for Optimus Prime. The news came from Kotaku.

Check out all the images below, and let us know what you think of these new figures below!

I gotts say, Battleship Bumblebee and Ark Prime have grabbed by attention

D-Maximal_Primal wrote:I gotts say, Battleship Bumblebee and Ark Prime have grabbed by attention

At first, I was like whoa, but now I'm curious about the sizes. The wave with Prowl and Jetfire seems to be Scout/Legends class like those RID armor figures.

I think everyone is gonna buy an Ark Prime just for the Ark. I really like these. Not enough to buy them but if I were younger, i would be all over these.

Also, some of the armors look like homages to stuff. For example, the jet armor on Prime reminds me of one of the G2 dudes.

Jetfire's armor is Armada Demolishor. Prowl has Triggerhappy, Megatron has Rotorstorm and (the smaller) Optimus is...uh...wearing the corpse of Leader-1?

these toys look superior to the warrior class we have been getting
better bot modes and better vehicles

This actually look pretty good. Might have to pick them up.

I love the dichotomy between the alt modes of the bulks and the drones. Terranean with aerial/aquatic, subaquatic with subterranean, aerial with terranean.

Good looking figures with a decent, non-intrusive, fun gimmick. More like this please!

I just wonder how cross compatible those body armor parts are between size classes. They almost look like they're tailor made for the bots they go with. Some would probably have to be. If so, it would limit some of the fun with them sadly.

Bumblebee's battleship reminds me of the arms of the SDF-1.

Hey, the Cyberverse toys are getting better!

Those armor thingy get my interest. Especially that new classic looking Jetfire that will be a sure buy for my shrine.

I think some of these are more clever and attractive than anything from Seige.
