Back in 2013, Hasbro released the Transformers Generations Thrilling 30 line, which tied into the then upcoming 30th anniversary of the franchise and included a variety of cool and fun characters, including Orion Pax. What was not widely known was that many of these releases were designed with alternative heads – one of which was a Kup head for Orion Pax. Orion’s alternate mode already lent itself to Kup, and the alternate head – seen here via images released by Pete Sinclair, formerly of Fun Publications and Botcon – sealed the deal. What you can see in these images are

Hero-X is planning to release all issues of the classic series, and thanks to 2005 Boards member Gaokaiser for sharing the cover for the fist volume which surfaced via

Earlier this morning, Hasbro held their 2017 4th Quarter and Full Year Financial Results conference call to investors and press. TFW2005 staff attended live online to learn how the Transformers brand did last year and what lies ahead in the future. Hasbro CEO Brian Goldner was more than happy with how Transformers brand performed throughout the year; especially in November where other toy brand sales declined. Sales have been impacted by Brexit and the bankruptcy of Toys’R’Us last year. Hasbro is currently making contingency plans for a business without TRU. Based on the comments, it was clear that Star Wars toy sales

The most recent Transformers Vs. G.I. Joe comic from IDW had a unique look and story that many fans dig. Unfortunately it wouldn’t translate well into fully functioning figures as we know them. In comes Kidrobot with a collection of non-Transforming items to celebrate the series. They have blind-box Vinyl Mini Series figures which stand 3 inches tall, pins, 7 Inch Vinyls, and keychains. All feature Kidrobot’s art style that captures the look and feel of the book. We’ve run a case of the Vinyl Mini Series figures through the motions which shows off all of the unique molds. There

Reporting on the Transformers coverage in Hyper Hobby Volume 7, which mainly focuses on the June and July Power of the Primes releases for Japan, Snakas notes that: In that regard, with respect to the future of the TF Legends series, there is a description of a “plan to continue series centered around the Takara-Tomy mall”.

This rendition of the iconic Star Wars ship is a highly detailed rendition of the ship featured in the classic original movies as well as the new trilogy. It splits up into mechanized versions of its pilots, Han Solo and Chewbacca, in a style reminiscent of the original Hasbro Star Wars Transformers release, but realized in a very different way.

In a nice nod to the original G1 toy, the alt mode can also add a ramp to its configuration and carry other Zeta Toys figures like ZA-01 Take Off (Blast Off) and ZA-05 Racket (Swindle). You may consider the cannons too big for this mode. An interesting detail is that the Combiner mode Armageddon (Bruticus) will use several

Grass Hopper is a mini transforming G1 Cliffjumper figure standing about 4 inches tall, ideal for a Legends-sized collection. We have renders and images of the prototype showing a very nice robot mode which includes a blaster cannon and pistol. The alt mode is kind of a mix between the original toy and the cartoon design.

The first series of Transformers Authentics 5 inch (or “Bravo Series”) figures have arrived at US retail. These are the smaller of the Authentics releases, including the likes of Optimus Prime, Megatron, Starscream and Bumblebee, each using the so-named Evergreen designs we’ve seen on non-movie Transformers licensed products of late. These were spotted in a Dollar General in Wichita, Kansas by TFW2005 member sideswipe6520. Happy hunting, one and all!

Autobot Stripes uses the Ravage mold and Autobot Nightstalker uses the first release of the Steeljaw mold decked out in all black. (Come on baby Masterpiece Blaster please!). On the Decepticon side, Wing Thing uses the Ratbat mold, and “Enemy” uses the Rumble/Frenzy mold. For fans of the Tapebots and their minions, they are a welcome addition. Nightstalker is a super tease, hopefully leading to all the Autobot tapes and eventually MP Blaster. He is finicky
