Here’s a bit of potential*news for Robots In Disguise (2015) fans. Originating on*Photobucket, we have what appears to be a test shot of a*Decepticon Fracture*toy, possibly a new Warrior Class figure given the number of parts / engineering. The test shot here appears to be in the early stages, but we’ve already got a good look at both the alternate and robot modes. Since this originated on a*Photobucket user’s account, we’re not sure of the legitimacy of the figure or if it will see a retail release. For now, join in on the speculation by sharing » Continue Reading.

Time to get those earlier Warbotron Computron releases out and practice transforming them to combiner mode because we have in-package images of the combiner core courtesy of*weibo user monsterhoyizhi.

From the Facebook page of Unicron Nemesis comes our look at Mastermind Creations’ first dip into the world of Masterpiece-Inspired 3rd party figures – Ocular Max-01 Sphinx. This figure takes it’s cues from our beloved Generation 1 character, Mirage. Shown here is Sphinx in vehicle mode layed out with the included accessories. Also shown is Mastermind Creations’ packaging for the figure, which just like Masterminds’ previous packaging, is impressive looking on it’s own. You can check out both images after the break.

We have a very happy news for the South African Transformers Fans. Hasbro has officially entered the South African market to directly distribute their toys and eliminate the Third-Party Distributors and therefore making the toys affordable. The brands including Play-doh, My Little Pony, Monopoly and Transformers will be distributed and related programs will also be broadcasted. “The big difference between using a distributor and having direct control [over distribution] is that there will be a much bigger investment into Hasbro marketing, and obviously the product range selection will be a lot stronger as well,” explained Gavin Mansour, Hasbro’s business » Continue Reading.

Brawl will be joining Onslaught (a retool of Hot Spot), (Swindle (a*retool of Rook), Blast Off (a*redeco of Quickslinger), and Vortex (a redeco of Alpha Bravo) to form Bruticus!

Via our sponsors Robot Kingdom, we have a look at the latest offering from Movie-series accessory making group, Fans Want It. FWI-6 is a second Jetwing Upgrade Kit, this one for the Age of Extinction Evasion Mode Optimus Prime. Yes, it’s a set that gives the AoE Evasion Optimus the wings used by his Dark of the Moon incarnation. It’s fairly random, though the images showing the prototype shows it is nicely designed and does work pretty well with the design, so it seems that Fans Want It might well be on to something good with this design.
