Botcon.com has revealed the third figure in their exclusive set for this year’s convention, Cheetor. Cheetor appears as a repaint of Cybertron Clocker. He is sporting a brand new head sculpt and color scheme that matches the 10th anniversary figure currently available in stores.

  

First4Figures has revealed their work in progress prototype for Transformers Generation 1 Scourge, leader of the Sweeps. This is turning out to be quite a nice tribute to an otherwise underrated original character.

   

TNI has revealed the next 4 figures in the DC Superheroes line from Mattel.
After a huge leap in quality for the Superman wave, they’re going back to Batman. This time its Mr Freeze, Robin, Batman (modified wave 1 sculpt) and Azreal.
Here’s wave 1 and 2 if you missed them.

Action-Figure.com is reporting that the Onslaught Series of Marvel Legends figures (Wave 13) has hit store shelves and sightings have been reported. One of their readers has also submitted the case breakdown for the figures.

• Abomination x3
• Loki x3
• Deathstrike x3
• Blackheart x2
• Green Goblin x2
• Pyro x1

It appears as though Pyro will be foolishly shortpacked, while Abomination, Loki, and Deathstrike will become shelf-warmers.

On a side note, I noticed that Onslaught is only about 8 inches tall. So don’t be shocked when you put him together and he is half the size of the Sentinel. On the bright side, with this wave we return to the 6 piece build a figure, instead of the 10 piece that is nigh impossible to find a single piece of.

Good Hunting, Collectors!

HobbyLink Japan has posted a very clear picture of MP03 Starscream. It shows Starscream from the usual angles, a few new ones, and a picture of Starscream in robot using the base/stand from vehicle mode to look as though he is hovering in the air. Starscrean impresses with every new photo.

Botcon.com has revealed the next Beast Wars figure in the exclusive set to get a pre-beast form. Dinobot appears as a repainted Armada Hoist. The color scheme is based on the 10th Anniversary figure currently at retail now. The announcement made special note that there is no black on this figure and that colors may vary of different monitors.

 

Astrotrain’s train mode was seemingly absent when Hasbro released images last month of the first wave of the new upcoming Transformers Classics line. In the past week or so, they updated with a picture of the missing alt mode. I have attached it below for your viewing pleasure.
