The Masterpiece Megatron Redux rumour continues to swirl...

That Megatron looks ace. Would be great if it is official, but even if it's another 3P one, it looks hands down the best attempt so far!

Blurry photo of wave 3 deluxes. All interesting but no actual Headmaster characters.

Doublecross and Triggerhappy actually pretty sexy, shame Hasbro have forgotten how to do a car mode that isn't utter shit rather than this vague cheapo Armada Hotshot thing they all seem to turn into now. Might keep an eye out for these things if they actually hit retail soemwhere at a half sensible price and depending on whether the actual finished product looks much like those.Denyer wrote:Blurry photo of wave 3 deluxes.

It's only tangentially related to Transformers, but it looks like we're getting a Death's Head II figure in the Hasbro's Marvel Legends 6" range next year.
Probably part of 2017's Guardians of the Galaxy wave. Rumour suggests as the Build-a-Figure, but I'm not convinced on that score.

Anyone seen the pics/vids of the Product Line stuff
https://youtu.be/pNho2w6wbgY
https://youtu.be/86B-5hETik8
Titans Return.....Perceptor looks ok, hopefully he'll retain his tank alt mode(from the look of the molded treads on the insides of his legs, it would appear so), Kickback looks fab...a deffo want, Broadside(heavy A3 retool) looks ok...although they didn't show off his jet mode...but we saw the jet kibble on him + we're supposed to be getting Tidal Wave outa that? i'm not liking the base mode for Overlord! looks too fan alt mode, dunno who that TM Swoop/Scattershot character is?
RID those Duocons/connectobots or whateveryoucallthem look interesting
dunno why they went with the Bayformer Stealth Mode gimmick yet again? with Bee, Sideswipe & Strongarm(granted this time they actually have bot modes).

Pics here for anyone who doesn't have time for videos.

The neatest thing about those pics is that Broadside seems to have very, very tiny versions of the CW Aerialbots sculpted onto him in carrier mode!
Picture quality is kinda bad so it's hard to see too many fine details, but Repgunus and Fangry both look ultra-cute. Broadside is neat-looking. Kickback seems a bit too spindly in some pics, but in the packaged shots he seems fine. I didn't even realize they were making Brawn, but he seems nice. Hot Rod does nothing for me. Getaway looks awful. Doublecross, Triggerhappy and Perceptor all look promising. Laser Prime seems kinda m'eh. Sixshot looks way worse than the early pics did, and I doubt he's going to leave too many Hexatrons homeless. And I can't even tell what's up with Black Shadow because the pics are so bad.
[EDIT] It looks like Death's Head II has single-jointed elbows, so I'd wager the BAF rumours are true. I can't remember the last time a single-packed male figure didn't have double elbows.

It will be nice to complete the Legends Insecticons with Kickback, however he turns out. Fingers crossed one day they do a set of three with consistent decos too.
I'm assuming Blackshadow will be retooled as Overlord? That would explain the odd setup.
Sixshot looks even more of a brick than he did in previous photos. The head suffers from the Titan Master gimmick as well. Sure he'll be a fun toy, but I'll stick with Hexatron.
I hope Takara paint those mini Aerialbots on Broadside. That may convince me to buy one, even though I still struggle with the G1 non-Headmaster Titan Master thing.
Getaway is even lazier than I expected - they've barely bothered to do anything, just slap different paint on Chromedome irrespective of sculpted detail.
Brawn is interesting, although I still love my CHUG Legends one.
Other stuff ranges from 'meh' (Doublecross) to awful (Octane Prime).
