    Also Frenzy in Air Force One and as Mikaela's phone and Barricade, both to extract frenzy from air force one and interrogate sam. Really, these .movies tend to play up the disguise bit more than most media.

    And bumblebee a few times in his movie.

    I'm thinking if that made a Studio Series Hound, it will just be a rerelease of the Last Knight Voyager, plus Takara gave Hasbro permission to release their retooled Movie the Best version.

    I’m hoping for the AOE version of him. In a situation like ROTF and DOTM Megatron, he (SS Hound) would be the same height as the TLK but be entirely different molds and engineering.

    Might be unrealistic, but I'd like to see a (mostly) new mold made for Hound, based on the AOE form. I think he'd be worth the investment.
    Perhaps they could include the original AOE figure's weaponry, with the handles modified to be standard 5mm pegs?

    Great see that we finally got some reveals!

    Soundwave looks amazing! A definite improvement on his previous versions. Laserbeak needs to be a smidge darker, but I'm happy we got him in some form.

    Bee looks great! I can't believe I'm saying this (considering we usually get a ton Bumblebee toys in each toyline), but we really needed this figure. Hopefully I can swap out heads with the SS01.

    The Triplets look great for what they are. They look very detailed for their size as well as pretty darn accurate too. Very impressive.

    Hot Rod looks ok, as others have said, I would have preferred an upgraded Lambo version. He may be the only one I skip from this wave.

    Overall these reveals were pretty damn great. It's a relief to see they reset the wave number for 2020. This gives me hope that we'll get at least another four waves of toys. Keep em' coming Hasbro, I want every single character done justice.

    If A voyager class hound is made I wonder if it could be retooled into Daytrader

    They have Ironhide, Barricade, and VW Bumblebee. Ironhide is $100 and VW Bee and Barricade are both $80.

    I guess it could be a decent retool, though what I want to know is if Daytrader will be made, how will his junkpack work in terms of both robot mode and vehicle mode?

    My Long Haul came in the mail the other day and I have a question. Is the "bobbleness" above his waist normal? There appears to be a spring in his waist resulting in his upper body bobbling around like a bobble head toy.

    If I end up buying helo-Drift, I'm going to hold it against all of you who've posted such cool pics of him. :throw 

    Just kidding- he really looks great, but I was hoping to skip something from this wave.

    I might pick up Heli-Drift if I find him in store or there is a deal online after those pics!


    Also, can't take a photo as I'm not near the figure but if you want to make Shatter look a billion times better get some Testor's Silver paint and fill in the line above her googles. REALLY helps break up the face.

    would i be better off pre-ordering Hightower from Hasbro Pulse or from Amazon? Pulse has the date of release but Amazon is much cheaper.

    Also where the heck is Long Haul?

    My guess is everybody saw the new Bumblebee and knew they had to nab one of the old ones for the sake of a non-battle mask head.
