    MSRP is supposed to be $50 on these.

    These are about ultimate class size, the Roll and Combine figures from earlier are smaller then these and have a $24 MSRP.

    I was expecting Jumpstarter-sized figures that autotransformed. Didn’t consider that they might be huge.

    Hasbro should have included these new Cyberverse figures in today's reveals. I still can't believe they dedicated half an hour for just 4 reveals...

    I want that Optimus. It looks like the FINALLY got his maskless look on the show right with that face sculpt.

    BUT

    $50. That's pretty steep. I turned down that gorgeous SS86 Slag based on the price. May have to do the same with this Optimus, and wait for a sale.

    I mean, the legs don't even appear to have any articulation. Where's the $50 going? That auto-transform function had better be better than the Iaconus turtle transformation. I also wonder if the sounds are random and are any of them voice clips, or just pew-pew effects.

    That Optimus might be the best looking Cyberverse Prime of this variety that's going to come out. d698062d-e174-49ee-8bfe-ec088cf0afaa.jpg
    The Deluxe Prime was the perfect version of Optimus with the mask. Unfortunately, any unmasked versions up until this newest one, all looked wrong. This version though fixes that. But again... $50? That's steep.

    This Bumblebee mold doesn't do anything for me.

    The legs fused together is kinda lame, but other than that these look pretty cool. That said, I think the Battle Call Officer 'Bee and Optimus were a bit better for $50.

    Haven't seen this news frontpaged yet? I imagine more people still need to hear about these. I'm hoping more Cyberverse news is coming this next week with preorders.

    Cyberverse Iaconus had a version of this sword in the stone type transformation so it's neat to see them implement something similar to that again.

    Considering how this forum tends to view anything that isn't Generations, I'm certain the only thing that would have invoked even more entitled nerd rage than yesterday was if these had been the other reveals.

    $50 for these? FFS. Hasbro has gone without serious competition in the robot arena for too long. Like most of their kids' TF toys this decade, these are look lazy and cheap. If they paid someone to make a CG rendering that looks like a $10 Odd Lots toy, I can't imagine that the real thing will look better than the render. Hasbro needs someone to kick their teeth in for a few years so they realize they need to try.

    God, these things are going to shelfwarm like crazy. The two battle call figures at least were good, these look horrendous and extremely hollow. I can’t believe they’re charging the same price of 86 Grimlock of one of these.
