Update:  You can now order this figure on Entertainment Earth or BigBadToyStore.  Using either of these links helps support Ben's World of Transformers!

This evening Hasbro Pulse held its live 1027 Pulse Premium event featuring reveals of upcoming figures including Transformers.  Newly revealed is Lift Ticket!  This figure is a redeco of Earthrise Hoist based on one of the Diaclone decos never used in the Transformers toy line.  There was a Botcon exclusive of this character in 2015, but this represents a new iteration of the character (and the sticker on the side in vehicle mode hints as to his sub-group affiliation).  Official ph

At Pulse Con 2021 a new Generations Selects figure was revealed in the form of the "Behold, Galvatron! Unicron Companion Pack" which features a redeco of Kingdom Galvatron in a deco inspired by Unicron changing Megatron into Galvatron in the 1986 movie!  This set also features a bunch of new accessories meant to go with the HasLab Unicron including ships and mini-figures.  Check out the product info and images below:

The first day of Hasbro Pulse Con 2021 has passed and with it a reveal of the entire first wave of the next iteration of the Generations toy line: Legacy!  Pre-orders went up today for these figures (head over to BigBadToyStore or Entertainment Earth to order now!) but the figures are not due o

The folks over at IGN have revealed the very first official pics of two figures from the upcoming "Legacy" line of Transformers figures! This line is a follow up to the "War for Cybertron" trilogy in the "Generations" sub-line and appears to feature characters from different universes coming together. The two figures shown are Deluxe Class Autobot Skids and Voyager "Prime" Bulkhead!

As a follow up to last year's Hasbro Pulse virtual event, Pulsecon returns October 22nd and 23rd! This two day virtual event will cover Hasbro's major product lines including Power Rangers, Star Wars, Ghostbusters, NERF and of course, Transformers! The description of the Transformers panel has been posted on Hasbro Pulse and indicates that the next Generations line will be revealed! Check out the description below:

Back in April, Hasbro revealed the amazing Robosen Optimus Prime.  This electronic, auto-converting Optimus Prime can also walk, talk and battle Decepticons all via voice command!  These have begun to arrive for fans who pre-ordered months ago and mine just came in.  Check out some unboxing photos below showing the box contents.  I have also added a couple screen shots from the App you can use to control the figure (an alternative to using voice commands).  A review will come down the road but for now enjoy the pics!

Thanks to a new listing on Takara Tomy Mall we now have a better look at Titan Class Black Zarak. When this figure was first revealed it was clear the images were basically saturated Photoshops. This time out we have actual images of the figure itself (or at the very least a test shot). Here is the product description from Takara Tomy Mall:

The folks over at Tag Hobby we have our first look at a surprise release that is expected to be coming from Takara Tomy. This release features a redeco of the Kingdom Ultra Magnus' inner cab as Optimus Prime and an "anti-gravity base" display stand. So far none of my usual retailers have put this up for pre-order yet but once it's up I'll definitely post about it. For now, enjoy the images (mirrored from Tag Hobby).

Images have appeared online via several Facebook groups showing off what appears to be a Masterpiece version of Shouki - the leader of the Trainbots from the "Headmasters" cartoon series.  Along with his fellow Trainbots, he could form part of the Combiner, Raiden.  This group of G1 toys was only released in Japan and thus far the entire group has not yet been updated outside of a Million Publishing exclusive of Shouki as a Classics Astrotrain redeco.
