OFFICIAL TRANSFORMERS TOYS NEWS
Yeah, I don't see much need for that myself. The deco isn't very different, and I don't see too many people buying it just for the mutant head.
Kind of an odd choice, when there's at least a couple other decos they could have gone with that would have been much more distinctive (Burning Convoy, like you say, or Universe Primal). But I'm sure it'll find a market somewhere.

What's a BAPE?
I also whan to know what makes this Convoy Supreme Commander. Which is presumably higher up than the previous release. Does the mutant face have a more commanding presence?

I'm surprised they didn't just include a big white cannon and some alternate decals for him so you could've turned your G1 Inferno into a G2 Inferno if you were so inclined. They're otherwise pretty much the same, aren't they?Brendocon 2.0 wrote:Especially as I'm not sure even Takara would be cheeky enough to do G2 Inferno in the Masterpiece line...

Sky Shadow, Brawn, and red Bumblebee (can't remember the actual name) pictures: http://www.toy-people.com/?p=35396
I know Sky Shadow is obviously going to be Overlord, but I really like him as-is.

Yeah, they really did a great job of capturing a lot of his unique design flairs. The only place where it really looks like Overlord is the base mode. I mean, the split alt-modes makes it pretty obvious, but the jet itself looks so much like the 80s Thunderwing mold that I don't really think "Overlord" at all when I look at it.

Pretty cool. There's a fan bash of Omega based on this already as well...

Granted this is for the ap but as you know we'll prob eventually get toys of these...even though we've had Galvatronus(of which this one is mostly made up of vehicons) before as part of Combiner Wars, and Shocknado? almost sounds like Sharknado

some unsubstantiated info from 4Chan, btw WHY are they making the Targetmasters SMALLER than TM's? the dinobots thing we kinda sorta knew about already...or at least suspected, i mean it's entirely possible that we could be getting Scorponk next after Trypticon! but we do know that we're getting one....eventually

Details confirmed at Toy Fair this weekend. Death's Head II is part of the second GotG 2017 Legends wave, and it's NOT the Build-a-Figure because that honour's gone to the movie version of Mantis.Brendocon 2.0 wrote: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.

Quickswitch looks pretty darn neat but I don't think I want him enough to pay for the other figures in his set. Same goes for Metalhawk and Pounce.
Twin Twist looks great. I'm super excited to get new versions of him and Topspin!
Overlord is glorious! I'm so glad he's got the toy head and not the IDW one, but I know I'm probably in the minority. I'm also amazed by how thorough the retooling is. Practically the whole jet/upper body is different!
Octane and Blitzwing look really good, and a ton different to Prime and Megatron!
Seaspray's nifty.
Cosmos...is he 100% identical to the one from a couple years ago? I've got mine right here and I can't see any deco changes at all.
