    Nah it’s time for Rhinox now. They’re giving us a small break with three cheaper to mid price figures in a row after MP-44 and the next BW MP is gonna be a heavy hitter high dollar one and Rhinox fits the bill. If they stick close to current scales his Rhino mode will be close to 12” from horn to tail (obviously a big ball park guess based on the show and MP Dinobots size). Which will be epic as heck but also probably be at least $300...

    The size of that hole in Armada Prime's fist has me convinced that he won't be a Voyager sized bot. Maybe Siege Shockwave size, but definitely not Siege Voyager Prime size.

    Careful pal, them's fighting words.
    Some people don't take kindly to the implication that Sunbow's designers weren't always 100% right about everything.

    Okay, so from how these figures are explained, Siege Prime is supposed to start as an homage to Cybertron Prime, then changes to the current Voyager. Why do I get the feeling that he'll upgrade to the Armada form, before finishing as Star Convoy?

    I guess everyone wins, since it's Armada Prime as the smaller robot with a trailer that makes him Star Convoy. Though I wonder what his US name will be? Star Prime doesn't sound nearly as cool as Star Convoy.

    I've wanted a new Star Convoy for years, so this is a huge plus.

    Well Star Convoy there is a retooling of POTP Leader Optimus, so there's your size comparison.
    That Armada Prime isn't going inside Star Convoy.

    They're separate figures.

    Anybody thinks they are saving Star Saber for the main War for Cybertron toy line as it is popular enough to be release internationally, this is why they are skipping forward to Armada Optimus Prime. It makes sense as Hasbro obviously has the design for Star Saber already from the 2017 Fan Vote.

    MP Black Arachnia? I\'m sold. Now I need to track down the other MP Beast Wars figures when I actually have money to spend. <.< Man, this fucking year.

    Why would they show toys for a line that is still a year out?
    Dude, if these are indeed Siege figures, they will be getting a US release.

    Star convoy might be in the Legends EX line? Thinking it might not see a mainstream world release.

    They are? So does that mean Optimus is a trailer-less Voyager?

    I don't think he'd be a totally new mold then, because Hasbro and TT have made an effort to unify the brand for non-MP lines like Generations and Studio Series. I also suspect MP-45 will get a US release considering the popularity of Bumblebee.
