 | | | Universe Superion in Transformers Revenge of the Fallen Packaging | | Posted on 11-22-2008 at 06:27 AM by Sol Fury | We have received official images of the upcoming Transformers Superion giftset. However, these pictures contrary to previous images that showed Superion in a 25th Anniversary Universe box show Superion in Movie-themed Transformers Revenge of the Fallen packaging. Therefore this is also our very first look at the packaging for Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen! Of particular interest, note the Egyptian theme to the packaging insert card, which fits together with previous reports of an Egyptian tie in the sequel (as well as the "Cyberglyphics" trademark application) and the mysterious set of four eyes in the middle of the top of the packaging. Update - the official images have now been added to our resources section! Superion Silverbolt Air Raid Airazor Fireflight Skydive | | Credit: General Tekno of the 2005 Boards! | Views: 13,806 |

Does this mean classics Bruticus Maximus and Construction Devastator will also have new packages?
I just buy 2 of each~~~~~ Kaijumaster:
Is this the Same Paintscheme that We've already seen on the Universe release?
megatronkicksas:
OK first off look what I found  second I have a cybergliphics to english translator wich I'll use to "decode" the packaging.
Sage o' G-fruit:
My eagle eyes (shia labeouf joke) hath spotted Autobot and Decpticon symbols with the rest of the cybertronix thingies. Could this be significant???
HMMMMM????
WELL??????

Methinks fake translator.  | Do you want to see it its straight from the first movies website also heres the box translated. I did the best I could, acouple of word were blurry, also it's pretty much gobobly gook so that was dissapointing. big hank:
Very nice packaging! At first i thought, "What a complex way of folding a box" then I saw it is merely cutouts over a clear package.
Transformers ROTF Packaging: More than meets the eye!
I have these guys, but I must admit with this packaging and repaint I am tempmted! BustaJesse:
I like the packaging a lot, Superion, not so much.

cheech and chong are the fallen?
Rhinox555:
I don't think most people realise this is called test-packaging and happened before Classics 1.0's release as well. Superion will not be released in that packaging. Ashstar: Quote:

thundrwaveprime:
i have to say the desision to put this figure in movie 2 pakaging is kinda bizzare. but i like this packaging beter than its classics 2.0 pakage. the fallen on the front is cool. can't wait for these figs to come out.

Hasbro would not officially release images of test packaging.
Additionally, Hasbro would not go to the trouble of making new artwork of test packaging. It's a waste of money. They had to pay someone to put together the layout of this package, pay an artist to draw the new headshot artwork, etc. Seems like a lot of money for something that is not going to be used at all.

Superion will not be released in that packaging. | I don't see how this is just test packaging. I remember seeing test packaging for the first Classics line, and it was basically what the actual classics toys came in, but had a Cybertron figure in it. The figure pictured on the packaging and even the name was for an actual Classics figure, and not for the one they were testing inside of it. It is a bit odd to release the set twice under two different lines, but it wouldn't be the strangest thing Hasbro has ever done. Maybe Target wanted to have their exclusive Gestalts released under both the Universe and the Movie line, just at different times. In the end it's too hard to tell what this really is. If it is just test packaging, I'm kinda curious what they'll be putting in it then. Quote:

I noticed that the Trans Logo has the color shift from blue to orange like the original show. My... What big Geewun you have!

Does this mean that the Superion (and maybe Bruticus) set(s) will be re-released in May when the movie toys come out?
Ripclaw:
O.O
that is all i can say
paco608:
i think the ancient egyptians thought the fallen was a god, in the movie, and they wrote the decepticon symbol everywhere, and he was burried in egypt, get wat im sayin?

OH GOD! THE SPOILERS! THE RAW SPOLIERS!
I'm making fun of the box, not you.
I enjoy making inanimate objects feel bad.
G1Wheeljack:
Interesting, can't wait to see where this goes.
Chaos Prime:
No hands and no feet make Homer go something, something...
NemesisBruticus:
Judeing by "gotcha" anyone think this is a joke from hasbro?
GenZhao:
damn
i should have taken pics of teh set when I was at wholesale today, they got cases of superion in. he was in the same packaging style as the bruticus, not what I see here
BB Shockwave:
Airrazor? Poor Slingshot.... he got shafted from the team (granted, he's a bigger jerk then Animated Sentinel Prime). I sort of hoped for a more G1-color repaint, but I'm glad I left it out - that way I can stay with my Energon toys, those are more G1-accurate.
And btw, what's the deal with the different shades of blue on the Energon weapons? They did that with Bruticus too... weird.
shocky the spy:
why have hasbro put airazor into superion? ,where's slingshot?

That Silverbolt though really tries hard to be his Gen.1 counterpart. Quote:

It does bother me a bit since Classics/Universe Devastator's Energon limbs were all 1 uniform color, so that he would look more like one single being when combined together.
Superquad7:
Universe toys in Movie packaging = FAIL
Non-Shattered Glass Decepticon toys with red faction symbols = EPIC FAIL (*hopes this doesn't happen again*)

Starscreamer95:
I think thier selling him so they have a Autobot combiner in toy line, because the Constructicons are in the movie

SilverDragon:
Damn that's some good packaging. Part of the reason I disliked the first movie's toys was that the packaging was, well, dark and not particularly interesting.
I hope the movie is as good as the packaging.

Nemesis Liger:
Wow, now there's a fancy schmancy box. I definitely want to grab these guys once they're out. ^^ Umm, the only thing that really confuses me is Superion doesn't look very... Movie-esque.. So why the movie packaging?
Railguard:
Ok, now I'm confused. Is this Universe or Movie?
