The fourth release in the "Golden Disk" series has been revealed! This time out it is the Predacon Terrorsaur! This power hungry character was one of the few to stand up to Megatron in the Beast Wars series before his unceremonious death in the second season. This version of the character imagines a different fate where the lava did not kill him but instead enhances his power!
The fourth wave of Kingdom Deluxe Class figures has been a bit of an oddity. Unlike past waves which received some level of promotion (even if it was just from retailer listings and newsletters) this wave was first hinted at back in July but to date there has been no official announcement. However, retailers have begun listing the wave for pre-orders.
File this under "news catch up". This past summer it was revealed that the Cyberverse series would be releasing an Ultra Class version of the Dinobot Sludge! I'm posting the product info and pics of this figure mostly for posterity here (and for those who may have missed the official news). Enjoy!
Yesterday Hasbro Pulse and Amazon unleashed a new release in its "Golden Disk" Collection: Jackpot with Sights! Who you may ask? Jackpot was a G1 Action Master released at the end of that era. While the figure did not transform, it was clear form his design that he once could transform into a car. He was partnered with Sights, a bird-bot who transformed into his weapon. Now Jackpot has returned in a transformable body (a redeco/retool of Studio Series Jazz) with a redeco of Pteraxadon as Sights!
Cyberverse launched in 2018 and three years later it looks like the line is intent on rolling forward with new releases, and that's a good thing for younger fans who are into the Transformers franchise. Hasbro is fairly low key about announcing any Cyberverse based product, so products tend to just trickle out online or suddenly appear on shelves with little to no notice. The latest example is Action Attackers Snarl who is part of the Dinobot themed series being released this year.
As a follow up to their collectibles such as the Megatron helmet, Modern Icons has revealed its Soundwave helmet! Now fans can wear a helmet based on the popular Decepticon Communicator. This item is a Gamestop exclusive and runs $129.99 with an expected release date of February 2, 2022. Check out the official product information and images below:
Continuing the series of reveals and pre-orders started by the Road Ranger and Puffer two pack and Jackpot, Hasbro Pulse and Amazon have posted pre-orders for "Mutant Tigatron".
For weeks now fans have watched the HasLab campaign for Victory Saber slowly go up after an initial strong start. For those who were nervous the campaign would not fund, international orders have helped boost the numbers and as of this morning Victory Saber is funded! At the time of this writing there are now over 11,600 backers and hopefully more will come so we can reach the stretch goals! If you want to participate in this campaign, head over to HasLab now and throw your hat in the ring. Let's say GO!
In a surprise drop, Amazon and Hasbro Pulse have posted pre-orders for a two pack featuring the first chapter of the "Golden Disk Collection". This two pack features redecos and retools of the Huffer/Pipes sculpt from Kingdom as Road Ranger and Puffer! Road Ranger is based on the Go-Bot homage from the e-Hobby set released in 2004.
