Transformers Panel Recap ? Hasbro Pulse Fan Fest 2021

[Whisky Tango Foxtrot]

When it comes to stupidly expensive Optimus Primes that auto-transforming one seems to be more worth the price than MP-44, but I think I'll stick with my Earthrise version for now.


Soundwave looks great. That's an insta-buy.


Rhinox looks decent, but I don't know how he compares to the Generations version. Maybe his release will put more Generations Rhinoxes on the secondary market, at least.


I think we can take this as official confirmation that Rodimus just doesn't fit together properly with his trailer and that there's no hidden transformation step that the stock photographers missed.


Tracks looks decent. The chest is fake but I think that's a necessity if you want to maintain his cartoon model's slim proportions. I'm not going to go out of my way to get one but I might pick one up if it's on sale or if I need to fill out an online order to make it worth the shipping cost.

Saw the soundwave at first though the netflix was being rereleased! But no. Still mini soundwave is cool and even ejects! Tracks is good with very g1 accurate 80's corvette. My reveal the shield was great too but likely I'll pick it up. The Ark yup as long as I can afford. Rhinox maybe. The rest is pass.

[delrue]

Yeah, that Soundwave looks to be an almost identical transformation to the Voyager.


Glad to finally see Tracks, was one of the figures I was most looking forward to from this line. Looks good apart from those arms sticking out in the flying mode. Hopefully that's just a mistransformation.


Rhinox looks nice, don't have the T30 versions so will likely get this. Kind of wish they didn't try to badass up the Rhino mode so much. I've liked how the animal modes for this line have had a more natural look to them.


Wingfinger has a cool look to like, has an almost Evangelion-esque mecha design to it.

LOL. I just put in my pre-order for Robosen Prime. I've never spent this much money so quickly with so little hesitation. He's just too cool not to have and I'd buy another one if they made it a Gundam.

$699 USD base price
$29.99 USD Fedex shipping

Congrats.

I was so tempted earlier, but made myself wait. Now I'm glad I did. With the Marvel Legends reveals (that sweet Iron Man wave), and the Haslab Galactus tease, I'm putting the funds aside for those.

Maybe I'll change my mind again, but for now I will live vicariously through you guys who buy him.

Rodimus looks much better wow, still will wait till he is on sale
Galvatron must buy! Kreemzeek and ton tin have reviews up
Tracks is a must and looks fantastic
Scorponok looks great love the scorpion mode
Windfinger love it best of the fossilizers
Rhinox I'm torn, I love my thrilling 30 one, he scales perfectly to the kingdom figures, would need a review before committing to this one
Mini Soundwave looks awesome

They asked question if we would get rest of the Dinobots in leader size in studio series line, they said keep an eye out in May for reveal

[theoneyouknowleast]

Amazon.ca pre-orders are up

[TriBlurr]

Nabbed preorders on pulse for SG Blurr and Tricranius. Buddy of mine went haves on shipping for his own blast effects pack.

I'll get the rest off of EBGames when they go up.

I applaud you on the purchase!

Pondering it myself...pondering quite a bit.

Definitely the coolest toy ever, folks need to spend the 8 minutes to watch when Jay & Silent Bob introduced it.

Robosen's own robots sell for around $400 USD, so this being Optimus Prime with Hasbro + Peter Cullen's voice justifies what the asking price is.

It's a very technically advanced product, I would expect Robosen to put in maximum effort into quality control for their first major launch and many of the components like the chips used might have a shortage due to the demand from so many industries.

Doubles as the best toy ever and potentially an investment!

I wildly prefer to transform my transformers myself.
