    Has this 30 day MPM reveal event been confirmed? Or are we just going off previous reveal dates?

    Sweet, thanks for the offer. I’ll PM you once I get Bee to do this. Have to check if I have a drill bit small enough to drill out a space for it to fit. Pretty sure I do

    Not confirmed afaik.


    Also, jet mode on Shatter is beautiful. I need it

    Thinking about creating an Instagram pictorial review page for Studio series figures. Would anyone be willing to support?

    Wow Shatter is a work of art. Hopefully the guns can also mount on the sides of her arms this time too, since I'd prefer them that way.

    I can't tell if Jeep Bee's gun is supposed to be hand held or integrated, as it sticks way too far off his hand in this render. Curious if he'll come with other accessories. Mold looks great, but I'd have to agree with this:
    Jeep Bee is smoother and blockier than most movieverse designs, but I think the main issue is the color. The movieverse style (and its following toys) tends to use a lot of gray and silver to represent metal. From the render Jeep Bee uses plain black where there'd be gray, putting it more on the toyetic side. It looks inaccurate and also makes the head (the only silver so far) stand out a lot. Colors have changed between the first renders and the final product before, so hopefully it does here too.

    Not sure why the designers want to swap out gray parts with black like this. They did it with the previous SS Bees to lesser degrees, and based on the insta images, Roadbuster might get hit with this as well.

    was not expecting this to end up with a little rant whoops.

    I feel bee’s “toy” look is cause the wheels, that yellow peg in there makes it look cheap.. a little paint goes a long way there.
    It is the same with the green on WW2 Bee, same issue

    ID Toys, but they only ship to the UK. So if you're somewhere else in the world, they won't be able to ship to you.

    Wow, he got them fast! I'm slightly worried about Roadbuster's backpack, but he still looks awesome! I love Shatter's jet mode, it really looks nice and clean.

    Heads up at the Dortmund panel they just showed the wave 9 deluxes that leaked yesterday. They confirmed though we would have to wait to see the last 2 constructicons until next year (NYTF reveals most likely).

    Serious question. Would they ever do any of the following characters. Breakaway, Devcon, Driller, Stratosphere, protoforms? Also what about the Fallen?

    The Fallen will definitely happen. He was the name of the second movie so he'll definitely get a figure.

    The other ones you mentioned I'm less sure about. Those are mostly non screen characters which I feel like would show up in Studio Series after they hit the major cast of robots.

    It seems like, at the pace we are going we will have studio series well into 2021 but we aren't totally sure when a new movie will come out so much assumption right now is to say that, once studio series finishes the main cast, and if there are no new movies to make new toys from, then they will hit non screen figures like Breakaway and Stratosphere.

    That's because there's actually something wrong with the remold, like @JohnnyGundam said on his video the whole chest and abs are supposed to sit at a lower position. The chest windows are a whole other issue... Hopefully there's a way to mod it to bring it closer without moving the chest too much up

    First impressions: I love the triplets. They're really fun and they have no loose joints or anything. The paint is great as well as the detail. Instructions are terrible as always and I couldn't transform them using the instructions so I just used some YouTube vids.

    Robot mode pics soon!
