Transformers Cyberverse Slugtron and Bumbleswoop Combiners Revealed

Of all the possible imaginable outcomes when the listings for these leaked, this is the worst one. Nothing was learned with Crash Combiners.

They are some of my 3 year old's favourite toys and aftermarket prices for many crash combiners are nuts now. So I'm glad these are coming out. Plus he likes the dinobots, so it will be a double win for him.

It doesn't look like these can be mixed and matched very well, which is unfortunate. I would have liked for an all Dinobot robot to be possible without it having Bumblebee's head. Oh well.

These look fantastic

They finally figured a way to make the energon Dinobot Griml;ock/Swoop Combo look good...by making these awful things hahaha*

some of the other combinations might be better, strange that the amrs Slag has for feet dont get used in the megatron combination.

*who ever came up with Megaslag is kinda a genius though.

Yeah, even if you can combine Swoop and Slug you're still left with a combined form that looks vaguely like Bumblebee. Then again it also sort of looks like Slag's head in yellow thinks to the big eye lenses. I'm guessing on the show the combinations are a little more "scrambled" than simply one is on top and the other is on the bottom.

They aren't arms, it's the hinge used for his pants mode hips.

That's a better name than "Slugtron" by a mile.

"Slugtron" would roll off the tongue a lot better with an A in the middle: "Slugatron"

Emerje wrote:I'm guessing on the show the combinations are a little more "scrambled" than simply one is on top and the other is on the bottom.

And that's if they'll be in the show. There were a lot of gimmick toys in both RID 2015 and Cyberverse that never made it into either show.

For instance, the only Spark Armors that made it into the Cyberverse cartoon were the ones from Elite class Optimus and Megatron, and Battle class Jetfire, Starscream, and Sky-Byte. That left seven whole other Spark Armors that didn't appear onscreen, which belonged to Prowl, Shockwave, Ratchet, Bumblebee, Grimlock, Cheetor, and Optimus's second Ark-based armor.

The deluge of Cyberverse we all knew was coming (due to listings) is upon us. Yesterday we had the Roll and Combine figures and now we see the Roll and Change figures. These are similar to the Ultimate Class figures we got last year with an emphasis on an auto converting feature. They are the same size as well.

Oof that Prime alt mode is a bit hard on the eyes

ZeroWolf wrote:Oof that Prime alt mode is a bit hard on the eyes

It is weird, but if you look at it, it's very similar to the alt mode's cab for TF: Cybertron Optimus. Don't know if that was an intentional homage or no...

These new figures look great so far.

Megatron combining with a Dinobot? Can't wait to see what brings that on.

Wish I could watch the Cyberverse series but I live where my internet has to be by satellite and we have a passive aggressive unlimited cap of 100GB monthly. I need a third for school and my wife works from home. The downsides of living in the middle of nowhere. Upside? We've been mask free for two and a half months and currently have 3 active Scary Death Virus cases in the county.

Is there any word Cyberverse will be on Blu-ray or DVD?

Whoever sculpted Bumblebee misinterpreted the details on his feet as the bottom front of his car mode.

Nope. Prime was the last show to get complete season sets, while Rescue Bots and RID 2015 only got random episodes on DVD.

Seems complete series DVD sets for children's shows in general are getting killed by streaming services.

Aren't the toy's feet just the car mode bumper?

Sure, they’re a little crap. But I enjoyed it the first go round in RiD’15 with the purple Decepticon jet jerks whose names I’ve forgotten so I’ll probably get both sets to swap them around and have the Dinobots combined. Speaking of, can anyone skilled in the art of Photoshop swap them around so we can have a better idea how they look together?

The front of the leg flips open, the feet tuck in, and the leg folds back. The kneecap with the red dot is then under the vehicle, while the back of the leg is stylized as the vehicle's rear end.

These new Cyberverse toys are killing it. Probably the best Transformers I've seen in a long time.

As can be seen highlighted, I was asking about the actual toy that was just revealed. Not Bee's animation design (nor the deluxe).
It seems that on that toy, the feet are made of the car bumper, hence the detail. They arent trying to be show accurate, and it isnt fake parts or fake sculpted detail but an actual part of the car.

If they are then they left the black vent off the bot mode in the CG somehow.



Emerje

Eeeh, idk, feels like hasbro's repeating itself.

As someone who did get some fun from the RiD combiners, I kinda like this? Those combiners are weird and I might check them out

I'm getting flashbacks to the TR: Energon Swoop/Grimlock combiner. He was very meh.

While we had seen some of these official images before, we now have a whole bunch of them form Hasbro now that they are officially revealing the next phase of the Transformers Cyberverse line, the Dinobots Unite subline. The two figures revealed in this subline are Roll N’ Change Optimus Prime and Bumblebee. They will both be released at the end of summer in brick and mortar locations and are at the $50 USD price point. So basically big Transformers toys to be on shelves for the fall and holiday season.

That Roll-n-change Bee is a huge "meh". Nothing interesting going on.

But that Optimus, with limited articulation and a vehicle that look like a Minecraft construct that got an unfortunate encounter by a Creeper is so herpederp, so bad, so GARBAGE!............ I like it a lot! Especially because he mostly look like a Cybertronian Orion Pax who decided to hit the gym. Especially with that very "Animated" head sculpt.

I'll keep an eye open for that one.

If you have to roll the toys to convert, why do they have multiple steps?

chuckdawg1999 wrote:If you have to roll the toys to convert, why do they have multiple steps?

Bost likely only the first step of conversion. Like the Animated Activators. First, the automorph "explosion", then you ajust the bits.

But why no Dinobots?

Guess these new pictures prove once and for all that bee's feet are made up from the front of the car alt mode

Seeing Optimus with a FACE isn't any less jarring now than it was with Transformers Animated. The face plate is just too much a part of who he is. Any tampering is just wrong. It's like seeing a pile of doggy doo atop a birthday cake....

chuckdawg1999 wrote:If you have to roll the toys to convert, why do they have multiple steps?

It says in the description. It rolls to transform from car to robot, but you have to manually convert it back to the car in 8 steps.

The joke there was it wasn't even Transformers animated that gave him a proper face, you have the Cybertron cartoon to thank for that. Even then, it seems like an Optimus Primal design element that carried over, so perhaps you should just thank Beast Wars

Optimus having a face goes all the way back to the G2 Go-Bot toy, followed by the Machine Wars redeco of G1 Thunder Clash.

And there's this age-old animation cel from the G1 cartoon:

I know these are intended for younger kids, but these toys just look really bad. Like WTF is going on with that truck mode?! This is another example of a gimmick ruining what could have been some really fun toys.

Sssshhh! There's still time for them to do another release and include it

I hope we see the Warrior Dead end soon. I want to see my boi!

Hasbro finally revealed some ne Cyberverse toys the other day but there was an important part of the Dinobots Unite subline that was missing, the dinobots. Well, now we have Sludge to show you. He is an ultra class bot which means a slightly simplified toy with an action gimmick that is voyager sized and made with durability in mind for a younger audience. All standard limitations aside, he looks like a nice rendition of G1 Sludge, a dinobot which rarely gets much love, and a fun way to introduce him to kids. The gimmick on this toy is similar to previous ultra class figures where energon armour will pop out. For Sluge, it gives him a dino head in robot mode.
The images were found on the Walmart app by the fansite TFW2005.

Okay, ngl, the spear/tail thing is kinda unique. I'm sure someone will (please) correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't think we've had something like that (normally the tail is a whip or sword).

Seens solid.

Look like a pretty solid toy!
The Cyberverse dinos may be well worth collecting.

That looks decent, I've never touched the Cyberverse toyline, but if the others get toys as good as Sludge I may get them all instead of waiting for G1 Dinobots. If Grimlock doesn't get a new toy in Dinobots Unite (I don't see why he wouldn't), I may even try tracking down a Cyberverse Ultra or Ultimate Grimlock, because I like the T-Rex mode more than the Studio Series 1986 one.

Sludge looks great. Hopefully, the other Dinobots will look just as good.

6+? Pfft. My 5 year old will love it! (As will my inner 5 year old...)

Sludge reminds me of the Star Dino Team.

Wow...I am genuinely impressed. Considering the general quality of most Cyberverse toys, this new Cyberverse Sludge looks really good! His alt-mode actually looks like a more or less proper sauropod. Kudos to whoever designed this toy for finally not giving Sludge the ridiculous feet he (and G1 Grimlock) normally have in their respective dinosaur-modes.

We heard you wanted more Cyberverse news, so here you go. Hasbro just released a video showing the big automorph gimmick of the upcoming Transformers Bumblebee Cyberverse Adventures Dinobots Unite Roll N’ Change Bumblebee. This is a big Bumblebee toy that transforms as soon as you roll it and it has lights and sounds. Anything a 5 year old (or even younger) would want. The video was uploaded to youtube by Benson Yee. The autoconversion is one way, meaning that you then have to set him back into car mode manually. The full product description is below.
