Dark of the Moon Cyberverse Evolutions Set Released

Posted on 05-23-2011 at 01:43 AM by Sol Fury under Transformers Movie Toys & Products (All Transformers Movie News)

Another new Dark of the Moon toy has been released - this time out it is the Dark of the Moon Cyberverse Evolutions four pack. This set is a Toys R Us exclusive, and is a part of their broader "Mission Earth" exclusive campaign. It features two versions of Bumblebee and two versions of Starscream - one of each in their "pre-movie" form, represented by recolors of Universe Legends Bumblebee and Legends of Cybertron Starscream, and one of each in their Movie forms. The Movie versions are partially transparent, like the Toys R Us exclusive Scan Series - perhaps this is a trend? 2005 Boards member Silvershot purchased these at the Covina, CA Toys R Us.

cool looking figs

General Tekno

Not a bad set. Surprised they went with the Cybertron Starscream over the recent G1 Legends version, though.

Silvershot

The neat thing is that the movie style Bumblebee and Starscream have both been retooled - they each have a new hand that can hold the included guns.

I don't understand the colors on that BB

NCStarscream

Awesome! I'll be keeping an eye out for it.

I saw the pix on another (Japanese) web site, but not in person. Nice find!!

Isn't there an Ironhide with the same type of paint mix??

The colours on the Movie figures are similar to the trans scanning dlx series that TRU also have.

Might Gaine

Very creative set on Hasbro's part. I'm digging G1 Bumblebee with movie stripes.

Waverider

I want that Cybertron Starscream repaint.

^Yup, this!

Im digging that BB as well.

Autobot Burnout

Damn. That Classics BB legends figure looks ace, and the movie BB actually doesn't do so bad as a "The Scan" figure as well. Also like the Cybertron Screamer, while the deco is the only thing saving the Legends Movie Starscream for me.

However, I REALLY like that classics BB figure, so if I ever see this at a resonable price I might have to think about biting.

JamesBenjamin

What was the price?

Yaujta

Too bad they didn't use the newest Cyberverse SS and BB, though.
As for the Cybertron SS, well, that thing kicks the RtS version to the curb. That figure alone makes me want this set very badly.

BlueAngel_Bolt

Muussssst havvvveeee cyberverssssssseee goodnessssssssss.

Grimwing

Wicked set. At least the movie legions have some guns. Got to have the cybertron starscream redeco. Its the oldest legend in this pack. Good thing it had the best articulation for its time.

FatalT 71

I've been waiting for this set! That Cybertron Starscream is the main attraction for me.

Hopefully my TRU will see it soon.

Omnius

Awesome, I'll be looking out for this when I'm in the States next week.

Nevermore

Legends of Cybertron Starscream is one of the best Legends sculpts ever, and a benchmark to compare all other Legends toys to.

Universe Legends Bumblebee, on the other hand, is a very lackluster sculpt.

robowarrior

ooo...G1 Moviverse Universe Classics Legends Bumblebee is a must have..

jestermon

Problem is, if I found the set, I don't want the movie figures and it would be impossible to unload, still setting on Straightaway Shoot out set leftovers and Target 2 pack leftovers as well.

The reason is they don't want people to have that G1 mold that's why it had the horrible distrubution I prefer the Cybetrtron but won't be able to get it.

Just like the Rodimus set.

Jason Blue Boost

This legends pack is way cool!

Nevermore

I want 2 of the classics BB, but none of the others (though I may want to keep one trans-warp movie bee). So if anyone wants 2 sets of 2 starscreams and 1 trans-warp bee, let me know

Awesome logic there!

Yeah, "We don't want people to have this toy, at all. But let's spend tens of thousands of dollars creating a mold for it, and then spend tens of thousands of dollars more producing it, anyway."

NO NO!!!! I must save them...... I will take them off of your hands to help offset the cost of the set just let me know by PM if you buy the set?????

Thanks

Nerdicon

Anyone have a toys r us near them that wants to pick this up for trade or sale?

GunBusterX

I picked this set up last saturday. Mainly picked it up for g1 bumblebee and cybertron starscream. The paint apps on the movie figures are pretty sweet though. What's cool about them is that the arms have been remolded so they can hold weapons now. Sadly, the classic figures cannot.

Dinobot Nuva

Can't wait to snag one of these. You got the product number off the receipt by chance?

SAF7

Man, I was hoping that the Cyb. Starscream was going to use the color scheme that was used for the WfC release.

However, seeing as the set has three molds that I don't have, as well as one mold that's so good that I have no problem with owning multiples of it, I'll probably be getting this at some point.

barrelks

And time to spend $15 for one figure. Hopefully I can get $3 each back for the rest, but not counting on it. I like the BB deco (atleast the big bright Autobot symbol on his chest).

Maetel

just bought a set at my TRU, the gun next to starscream is actually from robot masters r-blade. and bee's weapon from machine wars jets. funny how bee and starscream actually looked closer to human back on home planet and then proceed to get shit faced once they get on earth. does that movie starscream always have that hole in the chest? never noticed it before

MagnusPrimal

I think I'll get this. I want that G1 BB, and Cybertron SS looks interesting. Depending on what I think of the other two figures, my daughters may end up with some new TF toys as well!

LogicalLuke

It's a way for people to get that G1 Legends Bee that was near impossible to get at least. I found two then but never saw them again. Pretty cool I guess.

I saw one and passed on it. I'm not very smart.

sh002

i bought all 10 sets that TRU had. then i proceeded to run over all 10 crapmovie bees and screams. the G1 and WFC are nice though!

moreprimeland

^^^^^^ Wut??

Maybe some children or other collectors somewhere could have enjoyed those sets..why buy them and destroy 50% of the set?? Please say you're j/k.

influence82

The Classic Legends Bumblebee is supposed to represent WFC Cybertronian Bumblebee and Cybertron Legends Starscream is likewise (I think it is the same deco as the bonus Cybertron Legends Starscream given out to those who pre-ordered the WFC game in the UK). The Movie versions represent trans-scanning into new vehicle mode, which is why it is half of each color.
Also don't feed the trolls, especially those named after a poor selling Chevy vehicle.
