    I don't think Voyager Megs has been confirmed, but I think it's pretty much a given.

    Thanks!

    BTW, I screwed my last question. When I said "what about Bulkhead & Megatron?", I meant to say Bulkhead & Ratchet. I'm guessing that if Prime, Megs & Bulkhead are only going to Voyagers, they'll probably just keep Ratchet as a Deluxe.

    Ratchet's a deluxe again.

    Voyager Megatron hasn't been announced but it's a dead cert, they'll probably do the same thing they're doing with starscream and have his arm cannon light up too.

    Toys previewed at Hasbro toy panel - some Legion-sized figures (Wheeljack was one), as well as Deluxe versions of Wheeljack and Ironhide.

    Voyager Bulkhead never made it to the display case. BUT HE WAS THERE.

    I thought the Ironhide was a Cyberverse Commader size figure?

    Well lots of people say the Cyberverse Prime toys were so well made it was hard to tell their class. But because he was with them, I'll be guessing Ironhide is a Commander.

    Deluxe Ironhide? I thought it was a Cyberverse? Still, I'm not complaining.

    Now that's disappointing. :(

    So the Drone is Laserbeak? I would've prefered Ratbat, but oh, well.

    So the releace date is July again? Has Botcon lied to us!? (Dramatic music plays)

    Just a lot more detail on the figure, much more involved transformation looking at the joints. I can't speak to size or the vehicle mode, since I don't recall seeing either.

    Ratchet is a deluxe, and also looks amazing. We got one shot of him in an action pose with his blades and all I can say is "WOWZA!"

    All this awesome reveals makes me wish i had a third kidney to donate! :lol 
    J/K. In all seriousness, looks like Hasbro and T.tomy ARE stepping up their game, in spite of all the 3rd Party ''efforts''. Bring. It. On. :ev:

    Laserbeak looked so awesome in the 3d render, cool how attaches to the chest and "ejects" from Soundwave. Also I thought it was pretty neat they mentioned he would be able to fit on other parts of Soundwave. I am assuming it's his UAV mode. I am really psyched for these figures, I am curious to see Takara's take on Prime.

    Is Bulkhead incredibly small, or a good size?

    Eh, it's just the first time he will be released. It won't matter in the long-run. The voyager Prime is a lot more impressive, come on December!

    Again, he looked decently sized, but we got no pictures with other figures for scale reference.

    Okay, so we don't have to worry about the Lugnut syndrome on him?

    They don't tend to show size comparison photos at these events, so there's really no way to tell. Though I would hope he wouldn't end-up too short. I just can't see him being big enough to be in-scale with say Deluxe Bumblebee, but I imagine that since Animated they've probably found ways to make the bulky characters better in-scale. We'll just have to wait and see. The wrecking ball sitting in the back of his alt-mode sounds interesting. I just hope it is an external weapon, rather than something that's permanently attached to one of his arms.
