Greetings Seibertronians! Fellow Seibertron user Sabrblade has pointed us in the direction of twitter user @UNOYUKIN07153 who has tweeted what looks like excerpts from an upcoming issue of Figure King Magazine (Same source as these Rodimus Prime images and the red redco of Masterpiece Skids).
The last news to come out of these shared magazine scans is a small bit of text, that hints that, not only is Masterpiece Raiden still coming out, but that there's also a possible MP Skyfire to join the Masterpiece ranks. There's a mention of Unite Warrior size but it's unclear who it's referring to and if it's talking about the five member unite Warrior teams like Superion, or UW Devastator.
While Takara have given no official confirmation to a MP Skyfire, it could be am indication of big things to come for the Masterpiece line.
What do you think of this news? Will you be all in on an MP Skyfire?

Greetings Seibertronians! Fellow Seibertron user Sabrblade has pointed us in the direction of twitter user @UNOYUKIN07153 who has tweeted what looks like excerpts from an upcoming issue of Figure King Magazine (Masterpiecenews inbound).
These pictures concern the Commander Class release of Transformers Kingdom, Rodimus Prime, who has proven to be a divisive figure within the fandom. The pictures show a comparison with Studio Series 86 Voyager Class Hot Rod. We also get some new shots of the trailer that Rodimus comes with.
Check out the pictures below:
Do these new images sway you to one side of the debate? Are you still committed to owning Optimus Prime's successor? Will you be getting him to light the darkest hour against HasLab Unicron?

Greetings Seibertronians! A short while ago we reported that Nickelodeon and Hasbro’s eOne were teaming up to deliver a new Transformers cartoon. Well, we now know who'll be animating this project (special thanks to fellow Seibertron user Sabrblade for posting this news in the Energon Pub), as ICON Creative Studios have stepped forward.
The following Image has been found on their website amongst their other titles that they've worked on.
The studio has worked with Disney (Monsters at Work, Elena of Avalor, T.O.T.S) and streaming services like Netflix (Super Monsters, Kong: King of the Apes). We have no indication of what the series art style at the moment other than it being CG animated.
What do you think of this news? Does this Studio fill you with some hope about this forthcoming series?

Greetings Seibertronians! Fellow Seibertron user, futurevoiceactor, has dropped us a line to tell us about a special video he's uploaded to YouTube. In this video,he interviews Michael Bell, who Transformers fans will remember as the voices of Prowl and Sideswipe (and more!) in the original G1 Transformers cartoon! Outside of Transformers he's appeared in many other cartoons and video games (such as appearing as Raziel in the Legacy of Kain series).
The interviewer has already conducted interviews with the voice of Grimlock and Skyfire (from the G1 cartoon) and the colourist from IDW'S Regen One, John Paul Bove. Check out their YouTube Channel here
We have embedded the interviews below for your convenience:
Greetings Seibertronians! Following reports from Preternia on twitter, and fellow Seibertron user, Nemesis Primal, it looks like Walmart is hyping itself up to reveal some new exclusive Transformers! Which if history serves us well, may turn out to be the official reveals of Wave 3 of the Transformers War for Cybertron Netflix line!
Unfortunately, the fanbases experiences with Walmarts preorders isn't the best, with Gigawatt selling out within seconds due to unscrupulous scalpers and bots. That's not before we even get into pre-orders getting delayed then ultimately cancelled, which has been the experience of many a fan.
However one thing that could change this is the new section on Hasbro Pulse, where you can order Retailer exclusive items. How this will play into proceedings is unknown.
What do you think? You looking forward to seeing the official renders of toys that some have got their lucky mitts on?

Greetings Seibertronians! We've got some big news that kids entertainment provider Nickelodeon and Hasbro’s eOne are teaming up to deliver a new animated Transformers series!
This series will initially be 26 episodes long (each being half an hour in length).
BURBANK, Calif. - February 25, 2021 - Nickelodeon, the number-one network for kids, and Hasbro’s Entertainment One (eOne) have partnered to co-produce an original animated Transformers series (26 half-hour episodes), based on the iconic global property. In the action-comedy series, a new species of Transformers must find their place and purpose among Autobots, Decepticons, and the human family that adopts them. The series will premiere exclusively on Nickelodeon in the U.S. before rolling out internationally.
“As soon as I read the creative concept, which at its core is about family, I knew we absolutely had to tell this story with our good friends at eOne and Hasbro,” said Ramsey Naito, President, Nickelodeon Animation. “The series will tell a reimagined story featuring both original characters and fan-favorites for a whole new generation of kids and families. The creative team at Nick, overseen by Claudia Spinelli, SVP of Animation Development, can’t wait to get started on building this new world.”

The all-new animated Transformers series is executive produced by Ant Ward (Rise of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles), and Nicole Dubuc (Transformers: Rescue Bots) and developed and co-executive produced by Dale Malinowski (Rise of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles).

Date: Friday, February 5th 2021 5:11pm CST Categories:Cartoon News, Toy News Posted by:ZeroWolf | Credit(s): Autobase Aichi blog, Izaac Ryan from Facebook Group Transformers Botposting
Greetings Seibertronians! Thanks to the Autobot Aichi blog, we've learned that a Transformers fan from Singapore has gotten his hands on the Wave 2 Voyager Class Inferno! The user shared his images as seen below:
The user reports on the moulding changes between Inferno and Earthrise Voyager Grapple, who Inferno was retooled from. He also sadly reports that one of the most complained about errors with Grapple hasn't been fixed, the peg between the crane/ladder base and the legs. So handle Inferno with care if you are to pick him up when Wave 2 hits your area.
Inferno's wavemate is Dinobot, a figure whose Dino mode seems to be drawing all the criticism.
Will you be getting Inferno? Let us know in the Energon Pub and stay tuned to Seibertron for all the latest news and reviews!
Greetings Seibertronians! Well it's been a long and wild ride since it was revealed that the first HasLab Transformer project, the chaos bringer himself, Unicron, was successfully funded. Now though, the final update has been sent to the backers of this gargantuan Transformer, asking them to verify their addresses, and that Unicron will be shipping out in late March!
This is what backers received:
We are wrapping up the final production and packaging on your HasLab War For Cybertron Unicron and will begin shipping to you in late March. The packaging and shipping process is a multi-person undertaking, and of course, we want to ensure The Lord of Chaos arrives to you undamaged!
Since you placed your HasLab order back in 2019, and well, 2020 was a long year, we need you to confirm the address on file. To do so, please login to your Hasbro Pulse account, navigate to your orders, and locate your HasLab War For Cybertron Unicron order. When in the order, please confirm the address on file is valid. If you need to update your shipping information, please contact us.
Please note: your signature is required for the delivery, so please make sure you are home on the day of delivery to accept.
We are so excited for you to receive your very own Lord of Chaos!
So soon, the backers will be able to bask in the ultimate version of the iconic character, just in time to celebrate the films 35th anniversary (along side the Studio Series 86 figures)
Thats not all though, as over on HasbroPulse.com, they've posted the fifth installment of their own update about Unicron, in the form of a behind the scenes documentary. The documentary shows us how the parts are assembled and painted, all the way to being placed in the boxes big enough for Solid Snake to stealth in.
With Unicron inbound, it seems some have been lucky enough to have been given one as youtube toy reviewer, Hobbymizer, has posted a preview to their YouTube channel, promising the review to drop on February 8th. Check out the teaser below.
Special thanks to users Sabrblade, Regimus Prime, and Dominus Prime for sharing these bits of news with us.
Are you one of the lucky people getting Unicron? Share your pictures of this titanic event in the Energon Pub, as we all celebrate his arrival, and that of the the animated movies 35th anniversary!
