We have news that Transformers Studio Series 2022 Wave 3, or wave 17 as it is referenced by certain retailers, has been found at US retail. ApocalypseThruster found them at a Target in California. This wave has no repacks and of the 3 new toys, it is Bumblebee who ends up shortpacked. Here are the full contents:
2x Dark of the Moon Bumblebee
3x Revenge of the Fallen Sideways
3x Arcee
We also have reviews for Arcee and Sideways if you want to get to know more about those toys before picking them up.
chuckdawg1999 wrote:Sideways is a bot of many hats. Herald of Unicron, glorified movie cameo, and Master Yogi to name a few. As far as I can tell this isn't a licensed car, which is ok as it allows for more wiggle room with the design and it shows. This is one of the few car transformers I didn't struggle with getting panels lined up and pegged into place. Robot mode is squat and lanky but once you have the legs bent properly they hold Sideways up well and it's pretty posable. If you've been looking for some of the more obscure characters from the live-action movies to get a figure, Sideways is a solid purchase.
chuckdawg1999 wrote:When Studio Series 86 Arcee was originally announced, many fans thought it would be a slight repaint of the current Earthrise mold that has been re-released in the Kingdom line. Well SS86 Arcee is a heavy retool of the older 30th-anniversary mold that results in the best G1 Arcee we've gotten to date, it's by no means perfect though. Transformation is a bit more involved than you would think, especially when you realize that having enough clearance in vehicle mode is a difference of millimeters. Car mode is the closest to the G1 animation I've seen, I'm very impressed with how the designers were able to pull it off. Unfortunately, there is still a sizable backpack to deal with in robot mode, but the joints are tight enough for now to handle it. There are plenty of better Arcee toys, but if you're looking for a pure G1 experience this is the best you can do.
We thank EvasionModeBumblebee for sending more news regarding The Fallen our way. It seems quite a few fans got their hands on him already since we have content from China, Korea and now the UK. Below are photos from a blog post on a Korean website along with images from PrimevsPrime review. Those show The Fallen next to ROTF Megatron, the Jetfire/Prime combo and more. We also have in hand images of the alt mode, for those who find it important. Let us know what you think!
While not all fans like the Bayverse designs, it seemed pretty unanimous that the Hot Rod toy presented on tuesday's stream was a very impressive toy and one of the highlights of the reveals. It was also cool to know about Lamborghini having quite an input on the toy's looks. Sam Smith (not the singer) posted images of both that toy and the other 2022 wave 4 deluxe, Crosshairs, on his Instagram. For Crosshairs, he demonstrates how dynamic the figure can be with how they handled the trench coat, and how it not connecting at the sides increases poseability. Enjoy!
We have out first look at the Transformers Studio Series leader class Fallen figure and while it does not give us a great look at the figure due to a big watermark, we do get a pretty important piece of news: it will have a removable face gimmick. We can see in the image the face/mask along with the head underneath it. We do not know if what is shown in the figure is the complete figure and we still do not know what the alt mode will look like. We should know more soon though so keep your eye out on our site.
Thanks to Hasbro Pulse, we have word that live action movie fans are about to get a very special treat in honor of 2022 being the 15th Anniversary of the Live Action film franchise. That treat is a 5-pack of the original Autobot team from the 2007 movie!
The new multi-pack consists of the original 5 on-screen Autobots: Optimus Prime, Ironhide, Ratchet, Bumblebee, and Jazz. Optimus utilizes the 2nd version of the voyager mold with the more screen accurate chest, Ratchet comes with his original release saw, Bumblebee uses the later movie 1 tooling, while Ironhide and Jazz use their only mold releases to date. The figures have also been repainted with some additional paint apps, most noticeably some extra silver on Ironhide and Ratchet as well as gold highlights on Jazz.
As is typical for Studio Series, the set also comes with a backdrop, or in this case, 2 backdrops, one showing the alley where the 5 Autobots originally united, and a 2nd showing the Witwicky household where they tried to hide to hilarious effect from Sam's parents.
The preorder is stated on Pulse to be an Amazon exclusive, and retails for $141.99, a fair price given current deluxe and voyager prices. The preorder is currently open for Pulse premium members and should be open around 2 for non-Premium members. We are awaiting Amazon preorders.

Please take this with a grain of salt, but Daniel Richtman, who tends to leak upcoming TV and Movie news has reported on his Patreon that a live action Transformers series is in the works for Paramount+. Not much more is known but if this is true, it would be major news so we wanted to share that with you. The source itself is behind a paywall.
Thanks to our standard source of early images, PrimevsPrime, we have new in hand images of the upcoming Transformers Movie Masterpiece MPM-13 Blackout. Blackout is a brand new mold which captures the look of the very first Transformer ever seen in live action on the big screen, and transforms into his helicopter mode complete with Scorponok mini-figure. This figure also includes blast effects for his guns, as well as the detachable section of the rotor to finally give him a movie accurate weapon while maintaining his back rotors.
This figure should be available for preorder soon, presumably from Target.
Check out the images below, and let us know what you think in the comments section below.
Takara has many new preorders on their end but they are all of toys that have already been revealed. however, that does give us some new images of figures we have not seen too much of yet, like Studio Series voyagers Galvatron and Thundercracker. Takara is usually pretty good at toy photography but according to many fans, these photos are not giving that Galvatron and favours.
We also have more photos of Metroplex, who luckily for Japanese fans is not a TTMall exclusive. In fact none of these are.
Lots of Rise of the Beasts (ROTB) news today when it comes to toys. We had new listings earlier today and we have another one: Studio Series leader class Optimus Primal. this is our very first listing for a Rise of the Beast toy not made just for kids. However, this is a leader class toy, and Optimus Primal is usually voyager sized, so expect the similar type of release where the main bot is voyager sized and comes with accessories or more parts, bumping him up a class.
This comes from fellow Seibertronian Gotbot who posts on youtube. He had another listing, Transformers Generations Holiday Prime, though that is not a movie listing.
As for more ROTB news, we have a new product to show you. it is part of the mainline for kids, a transforming mask. It is a mask of Optimus Primal's beast mode which turns into Optimus Primal's robot mode. We again see the new Maximal symbol used for the upcoming movie and we know this is a real product since we have the instructions next to it. There will be similar masks for other characters like Bumblebee, here is the vendor listing for them:
2-In-1 Mask – $34.99 USD
These toys are out there and we are bound to get more and more news regarding them one way or another.
We've seen sales on Pulse before and they tend to be a little underwhelming on the Transformers front with a small selection of sales items and not particularly great deals. Well not this time! Hasbro Pulse's new Power Days sales event where spending $75 or more in select figures will save you 40% off instantly! No coupons and no memberships required! And the selection for Transformers fans is nothing to scoff at. How does Selects Titan Black Zarak $107 sound? Or how about Masterpiece Skywarp 2.0 for $143? Or maybe Jurassic Park Collaborative set for what some would call the right price of $63? And it's not just the big stuff! The first wave of Legacy and Studio Series Core Class are only $7 each. There's also several Selects figures, a few left over Shattered Glass figures, even a few left from the Premium Finish line. I personally picked up SS Grindor, Premium Finish Megatron and Legacy Bulkhead for a combined total of only $86 before tax and shipping saving nearly $60. It's definitely a sale worth checking out even if you aren't looking for Transformers.
Sale runs until June 6, but you'll want to get in early for the best deals as stuff is already selling out in the first hours!
