One of 2024's leaders in the Legacy line is known to be Soundwave. Now people were wondering if that meant a new mold, a larger figure, or a rerelease of the previous mold with cassettes. Well, it's the latter and we know that from JTPrime17 who confirmed it. It is said to be a repaint of the Walmart's exclusive Soundwave from the Netflix line and for it to be at the leader class price point, it will come with extra figures/cassettes, though we don't know exactly what those will be yet.

Here is the listing for those curious:

TRA GEN LEGACY UNI LEADER SOUNDWAVE
Product Number: F9188

While we know all the Legacy and Studio Series coming out this year, we still didn't know all exclusives. JTPrime17 is sharing some listings with us regarding non general release items:

TRA GEN SELECTS DLX 3 PACK TREDS, PATHFINDER, & SMALLFOOT
Product Number: F9650

This is not an exclusive but it won't be found in stores either, so preorder it from whichever online retailer you feel most comfortable with when it is made available. These are redecos of recent figures to represent Go Bot characters. Pathfinder, for instance, will be a redeco of Cosmos. It might be grey to match the original Go Bots toy or blue to match the Transformers homage figure.


TRA BB GEN SS 2 PACK VOY 86 RATCHET, & DLX 86 BRAWN (battle damaged)
Product Number: F9878

TRA OPTIMUS PRIME AND AUTOBOT BULLSEYE
Product Number: F9652

Those two are Target exclusives. The 86 two pack will be battle damaged, same as the Ironhide/Prowl pack. The Optimus toy will be a redeco of the G2 laser Optimus cab (again) with the standard Earthrise trailer in a Target themed deco. Bullseye is a repaint of the micro-master Ravage mold.


TRA GEN RETRO OPTIMUS PRIME
Product Number: G0153

TRA GEN RETRO BOMBSHELL & RAMHORN
Product Number: G0237

TRA GEN LEGACY STARSEEKERS DLX ROADPIG
Product Number: G0232

Those three are all Walmart exclusives. The retros are G1 toys in cartoon deco, and Optimus will come with a trailer. We knew of the upcoming Walmart exclusive Starseeker line. Roadpig is a retool of Crashbar, letting us finally complete the Junkasaurus combiner.


TRA GEN MAYHEM VOY BLUDGEON & DLX RUCKUS
Product Number: G0182

Amazon’s exclusive this year are the Mayhem Attack Squad, which will be 3 multipacks, with a total of 7 figures.

We thank Sowndwave76 for letting us know of an image that popped up online as a leak. It is an image of Earthrise Trailbreaker in toon colours with no more use of clear plastic. This would be from the upcoming Autobot 5 pack within the Generations Selects line, the same 5 pack which includes Hound. That means that the other figures in the pack, like Sunstreaker and Wheeljack, would also be in toon colours. Let us know if this news helps lessen the blow of buying the 5 pack for Hound.

"Leak" Suggesting that Upcoming Legacy Chromia will be an Animated Prowl Redeco with New Head

Some fans want to be kept up to date on the latest rumours within the Transformers community while others just want to wait for the cold hard facts. And while both are fine, today we will indulge the more rumour oriented side. We've recently learnt from one of the self defined "leakers" that Legacy United deluxe Cyberverse Chromia will have barely nothing new in terms of molding. This is based on an image seen but not shared. The upcoming figure is said to just be a blue redeco of Animated Prowl with a head resembling previous Chromia heads.

Of course, this is to be taken with a grain of salt as there is no solid proof of this aside from the leaker's record which is 50/50. Of course, this will give us an idea of how reliable leaks are.

Upcoming Transformers Collaborative Projects Found with One Possibly Hinting at Ninja Turtles

JTPRime17 found some new collaborative project listings. These are the crossovers the Transformers team does like with the films Frankenstein and Top Gun. We got three listings:

TRA GEN COLLAB PROJECT KNIGHT
Product Number: F9653


TRA GEN COLLAB PROJECT RENNAISSANCE
Product Number: F9656


TRA GEN COLLAB PROJECT TAILS
Product Number: G0050

Unlike with codenames in movie lines, the code names for collaborative projects are hints at the projects themselves. KNIGHT could be hinting at K.I.T.T. from Knight Rider, which Hasbro already previously tried doing while Renaissance points towards Ninja Turtles (which have a history of transforming products in their own toylines). Tails doesn't have as direct a hint, it could be anything from Tailspin to Sonic. As we have seen in the past, these collaborative projects could be anything and licenses are acquired purely for the project so another company having toy rights doesn't disqualify a project from happening necessarily. Nothing is confirmed beyond the code names and the fact that these toys are in the works, everything beyond that is speculation on our behalf.

Let us know what you think these may be.

Some 2024 Transformers Toys May be Cancelled or Pushed Back

While we want to give you as much info as possible, it is always important to note that, as we have seen with many toys now, anything can happen until Hasbro officially reveals an upcoming product. And that includes cancellation. We had previously published lists of upcoming toys based on listings provided by JTPrime17. This Seibertron member has access to case assortment solicitation from Hasbro to retailers which is how they let us know of new listings.
However, some listings are now no longer present on these solicitations from Hasbro. Those include SS Drift from TLK, SS Lifeline from the upcoming video game, Legacy core BW Dinobot and Legacy Sureshot.

Now these being removed from solicitations does not mean that are definitely cancelled (and it could also just be a mistake). As we saw with Buzzworthy Hound, while that release was cancelled, the toy will still be released in another way. However, there are previous listings that were no longer available and did not come out in their listed lines like T30 Brawn, T30 Sharkticon, Titan Master Optimus Prime, Titan Master Toraizer and SS Breakaway.

Here is the quote from JTPrime17:

Interesting note, updated case assortment Solicitations from hasbro to retailers have some changes. The changes actually remove some figures from the line up. Not sure if this is a mistake or if these figures were delayed or cancelled.

But these are the following figures that have seemingly disappeared.

F8762 Tra Gen studio series dlx TF5 Drift
F8761 Tra Gen Studio series dlx RISE Lifeline
F8519 Tra Gen Legacy UNI Core BW Dinobot
F8531 Tra Gen Legacy UNI Dlx G1 Sureshot

Previously Leaked Hound Might be Coming in a Gen Selects Multipack

Hasbro has lots of toys being simultaneously designed and release plans are never set in stone unless revealed officially. This is why even though we got leaked renders for a Earth mode Hound figure a while back, it's release could not be certain until Hasbro officially revealed it (or it was found in stores). While we still don't have an official reveal, we do have a new listing featuring Hound. It comes to us from JTprime17 and you can see it below with its product code.

The listing is for an autobot Multipack made to coincide with the 40th anniversary of G1 featuring Hound, Jazz, Wheeljack, Sunstreaker and Trailbreaker.

TRA GEN SELECTS AUTOBOT MULTIPACK; DlX Hound, Jazz, Wheeljack, Sunstreaker, Trailbreaker
Product code: G0206
