Chuckdawg did Quick Draw Hound, Baltmatrix did the Voyager one

You are absolutely correct. I am officially exhausted.

Just sitting at my desk, posing my Evasion Mode Prime, and had a thought: Will maybe someone release a custom head for this guy? Perhaps with his faceplate? I would totally get that.

I really like the evasion mode prime. Its one of my favorite movie primes, but I'd love to be able to swap out a faceplate head. Heck. If I found out that one was coming out I'd get a third one! (I got an extra for painting)

Anyone else like this idea or are happy with the EM Prime?

which ones are the Evolutions 2packs? the deluxe Dinos with the wee minicons? or the BW repaints?

pretty flippin' obvious which one of them two got the better side of that deal.

The Dinos with the Mini-Cons, Legends or Energon Grimlock, where applicable. The BW and E-Cruellock repaints are from Walmart.

I also did Constructbots Grimlock with Dino Rider Optimus Prime

Forgive the audio towards the end as I start cracking myself up, which is what good toys should do!

Thanks Craggy but Spada did well too.

I'm totally with you on that, bro. Let me add another upgrade. A replacement panel countaining the second smokestack. EM OP is not screen accurate because of it's deco and he took the G1 paintjob. So, I WANT my second smokestack first. A faceplate movie head would also be welcome. So, why not an upgrade kit that countain both? Let's add a G1/movie gun hybrid to sweeten the deal.

If this should only be in toy sightings, let me know and I will delete this post:

Here is the run down for the Canadian release of the Age of Extinction Toylineas per my experience today.

Target and Walmart are not selling them yet but Toysrus has the 4 wave one deluxe figures as well as the titan figures and the 3 Dino Sparker figures. The leader and voyager class figures are not yet available.

The Kreo Age of Extinction sets are also available at Toysrus.

The toysrus I went to is in Montreal at the corner of Namur and Decarie Boulevard.

Are you in Eire or Northern Ireland? TRU UK has stores in Londonderry, Belfast and Sprucefield, and offer home delivery to the south! http://www.toysrus.co.uk/info/trubw-ire ... ick-up.jsf

I'm in the Republic (no-one calls in Eire unless you are speaking Irish), still thanks for the info

That's a good way of putting it, thanks! I was never sure how to address it until now.

Best of luck with tracking down figures!

Daim Choc, a member of the message boards here, shared a few pictures of the upcoming Deluxe Class Lockdown, courtesy of a friend of his by the name of SiuGui Mok on Facebook.

Daim Choc states that pictures came from promotional materials given at the Singapore release event.

Lockdown will be released in wave 2, revision 1 some time in July. Until then, check out the pictures and tell us what you think! We've mirrored the images below:

Singapore had its AOE Toylaunch yesterday and we had all the figures up till Wave 2:

Lockdown looks pretty good.

i will wait for a review to make a an opinion.

Looking good, but he'd better have a gunface face or no deal!

The gun looks like it can be attached to his chest to cover his face. Promising.

Yeah, the gun he's holding is his face gun from the trailers, so it's possible that it could attach to his head over his face.

he looks really wicked and the gun probably attaches to his face. I am curious for to see BUmblebee in his camaro 2014 concept mode.

Think he'd make a good Rodimus re-tool? The Lambo mode looks nice.

He looks like he has the same build and transformation as Generations FOC Sideswipe and Jazz to me.

No hook hand?

Who needs hook hand when you can have facegun? I've already got ROTF Lockdown, but I'll get this one if he can pull off the facegun.

He's too fat. He better be mistransformed in that picture.

Nope it most definitely did not come from Singapore.
The booklet here did not even show wave 2

Came from Taiwan or Hong Kong or china's booklet.

I like Lockdown better then I thought I would.

SlyTF1 wrote:He's too fat. He better be mistransformed in that picture.

That was my 1st thought as well. I doubt he's mistransformed, though, as that is the official promo shot from the package of another figure (it looks like).

And yes, he would make an awesome Rodimus repaint.

I must be seeing a different figure to everyone else 'cos I'm just seeing a thug-faced, gorilla-armed mess of a thing.

yoboy wrote:No hook hand?

That is exactly what I was going to ask He looks decent, gun attaching to his face would be sweet and help the figure out.

He looks awfully generic and totally uninteresting. Yawn.....he's a big fat pass. Emphasis on fat. I like Animated Lockdown way better.

Ha, Animated Lockdown is one of the best transformer toys out there, I doubt any toy from this line will beat it.

And I was just saying in the staff emails that if Lockdown were any good, I'd get him. And what do I see when I first log in? This guy.

He looks... okay. His torso looks a little too muscular, but other than that, I'm sure he'll turn out alright. Though, if there's one thing he must have, it's this: weapon-face or bust! [-(

I'm sure some third party company (I'm looking at you, UFO and Fans Want It!) will make a hook accessory for Lockdown. It's almost precedence that it must happen.

Yeah... no. He's certainly not one of the best. There are much better figures out there. >:oP

Meanwhile a friend of mine has spotted AoE in his ToysXL store in the Netherlands! Great, if it wasn't for the fact Generations are not stocked at all. Yawn.

It's a shame they didn't just use the movie-verse Lockdown design we already have.

The car is cool looking at least.

In terms of design at that price point? If you dont mind sharing with me who those better figures are, I am all ears.

Went today on the 17th my local Wal-mart and Target had NOTHING but walked into TRU and they had boxes of AoE merchandise.

Thats the same thing that happened with me.

I think ROTF Lockdown beats Animated Lockdown, personally.

For comparison:





Discuss.

I do see where the toy is getting its inspiration but the result is a much wider figure. However, I will say that Human Alliance Jazz always looked wider in his photos and actually resulted to be sleeker in the end with a result similar to the one found in the first film.

Staff? I wasn't part of that discussion.

News staff, o glorious admin.

Well Junior should be more specific then.

Burn wrote:Well Junior should be more specific then.

I like being ambiguous.

Bought me some Scorn, Slug, and Crosshairs.

Scorn is nice. Good figure, fun transformation. I'm fearful that paint on his tail will get gooey at some point.

Slug is pretty good too. He's all the better when you finally get those dino arms to lock into place in robot mode.

Crosshairs is one half of a future Boondocks Saints Transformers edition duo. TBH, I think he's my Classics G2 Drench. Now where are my G2 Autobot stickers...

I also got Leader Gridlock. He's better than you say he is, so shut it.

That's my story morning glory.

good call, Deluge it is!

that actually doesnt look half bad, no way in hell id call it lockdown but looks like a pretty good transformer figure. I will wait til theres pictures of the back though cause a giant backpack or to much kibble can kill it.

Glad I grabbed the figures online, because none of the stores around me did much stocking. Even the region's Targets are bone dry empty. It's ridiculous.

I agree with all of the above, I might add.

I'm not sure why anyone would call this figure anything other than what it is: Lockdown. This is what he looks like in the film, he's most likely mistransformed here, plus what other TF line could he fit in and have a name? Seriously.

It's Lockdown. That's all there is to it. Rather than all of these complaints, I'd rather you guys and gals just didn't buy him and get over it.

More for people like me. People who appreciate these figures for being the awesomesauce that they are. And oh, are they ever.
