Via Ebay seller jet_tang_2000 we have our first look at another group of toys which we now know will carry over into the 2015 assortment of Transformers toys. They've posted some prototypes of Titan figures on the auction site from the upcoming Robots in Disguise series.
There are three prototypes. The first two we know to be Bumblebee and Optimus Prime. The third one is the "Wolfman" from the latest trailer, who is being called Galvatron by the seller, but we're not clear on if this truly is Galvatron or if he's just being called this because he happens to resemble the face of the Age of Extinction baddie. It's also been pointed out that Bumblebee and Optimus Prime's heads have been switched - these are mold tests so this will probably be fixed by the time these hit shelves. Of note is that the Optimus Prime and Bumblebee seem to be talking figures - there are battery compartments visible on the back, with what looks like buttons and speaker vents on the front. "Galvatron" does not sport these features - so we're probably seeing two different classes of Titan figures here. You can check out our mirror of the three Titan prototype images - these are clearly early versions, mold tests by the looks of it. We'll probably not see final versions of these until Toy Fair next year, but you never know - Hasbro might treat us at the New York Comic Con, which kicks off today! |

Fans of the Masterpiece Transformers line get another chance at one of the lines earlier offerings. Site sponsor, Bigbadtoystore.com has just put up preorders for MP-05 Masterpiece Megatron 30th Anniversary Edition. He will come with the blaze orange safety plug and will be “double-taped” by the Takara factory due to additional quality control inspections. This re-release is due this coming December and will set you back roughly $200.00. This is a great opportunity to lock one of these figures down, so don't slack on a preorder!

A two pack of the Age of Extinction Flip & Change Grimlock and Optimus Prime has been sighted at US retailer Kohls. This two pack bundles the previously single-pack releases of the Age of Extinction Flip & Change Grimlock and Optimus Prime into a single box. The price is a bit high, unfortunately - it retails for $59.99 (on sale for $49.99)
This set was spotted at the Kohls in Benton, Arkansas by TFW2005 member Autobot City Comics 2008! |

Hasbro Studios Shorts has uploaded the pair of preview clips which they showed at the New York Comic Con 2014 Robots in Disguise panel.
In the first clip, we see the Autobot team adopt their new alternate modes, and get a good look at the crew as well as the humor of the series: In this second clip, we see an action sequence, with the Autobots facing off against the lobster Decepticon, Bisk / Bisque. |
