03 - Preorder66 Ruined It for the Children - Friday April 27

04 - Saturday April 28

The official Transformers Facebook page has uploaded some nice clear official images of the next two assortments of Transformers Prime Deluxe toys. First up is Wave 4 with the Wheeljack remold Dead End, which features a new head and new mold Airachnid. Shadow Strike Bumblebee, a redeco of wave 1 Deluxe Bumblebee, rounds out the assortment. Word is Airachnid will be shortpacked in this assortment so be sure to get in early when you see her!

Then to follow that chunk of awesome up the Transformers Facebook page is also sharing pictures of the Wave 5 Deluxes, Sergeant Kup and Decepticon Rumble. Both are all new molds - Sergeant Kup is a straight-up redeco of Ironhide, but since Ironhide's not been slated for a release in Deluxe class yet, Kup will actually hit retail first. Amazingly the head sculpt does great double duty as both of the gruff older Autobots, in this fan's humble opinion.

Check out all of the images, then click the discuss link below to share your thoughts on our 2005 Boards!

Shown previously to those in attendance at Botcon 2012 at the Hasbro brand panel, we now have official images of both Generations Voyager Soundwave with Laserbeak and his repaint, Voyager Soundblaster with Buzzsaw. These new figures, based on the new video game designs, will feature a chest that can be opened to eject "data discs". These data disks can be pushed out of the figures chest and will automatically Transform (ala Bakugan style) when they hit the ground.

TFW2005 member uranusdd has taken the time to share some of his photographs of two of Dr. Wu's upcoming products.

The first set, DW-PT-03 Prime Guns, has a pair of silver blasters for your Transformers: Prime Optimus Prime. These blasters appear to be identical to the official one that comes with First Edition Voyager Optimus Prime, so be wary if you're looking for official weapons.

The second set is a prototype of DW-PT02a Dark Force, which is styled after a shard of dark energon. It appears pink in the photos, but we are being told it is not the final color.

Staff Note: This is an unofficial product not produced or endorsed by Hasbro or Takara/Tomy.
