In hand images of Studio Series Mixmaster have also surfaced, but the source of said photos is currently unknown. These photos confirm how Devastator's head will look and work, and it is a nice touch to have it be revealed by opening up the cab and hood in a movie-accurate way.
Both figures are expected to be released January 2020, and can be preordered here.
So, what are your thoughts on these 'Cons? Is Devastator looking a little too hot under his blushing? Or does Shockwave look a little too Megatron-y for you? Tell us in the discussion below, and as always, keep your receptors tuned for more Seibertron news!

Mixmaster's looking good too, I'm glad they added the red to Devastator's face.

AS much as I despised the characters as annoying, we absolutely need Skids and Mudflap now in the SS...

That's deep. And now of course as soon as I have Mixmaster, I'll have to see how SS Devy's head looks sitting on top of Grand Max...

2) mixmaster is looking good, and i am stoked for Devy to be coming together! The transformation matches the movie too, splendid!
3) Megatron looks better in that review, but still, why the wrong chest?

Also, very sad it seems we won't be getting Frenzy.
At least Shockwave and Mixmaster continue the awesomeness most of the line has us used to at this point.

You're supposed to use the stand to reinforce his foot and the shield just stays on the arm as part of the finger

According to the instructions, neither of those things is true. In fact, the way the instructions say to make the foot actively prevents putting the stand back in. (You can make it work, but you have to rearrange a bunch of stuff.)
Also, does anyone else's Rampage have a loose right shoulder joint? I'll live with it since I'm not really likely to pose him much anyway (particularly due to the lack of elbows), but it's kind of annoying.

I've done it multiple times, never had a problem with it, but whatever

That one is Sentinel Prime.
He is apparently voyager sized as going by his price in yen which matches Scrapper and Movie 1 Megatron. Of course there's no images at the moment but with a lot of conventions coming up, it's just a matter of time.
What do you think of this news? Are you excited to recreate the three way fight at the end of the movie? Are you still bitter about Ironhide's death? Let us know in the Energon Pub and stay tuned to Seibertron for all the latest news and reviews!

Yes to both!
Sentinel was really the last character from my main Studio Series wish list that was missing, so I’m super glad it’s finally happening! (Not that there still aren’t SS figures I’m hoping for, there definitely are). It’s crazy how most of the figures I was wanting are all happening in a pretty short time: new Camaro Bumblebee, Shockwave, Soundwave, and Sentinel. Sentinel will be kept far away from my SS Ironhide, though.
I’m glad they went with a voyager, he was barely taller than Optimus in the movie so this size class should work for him.
So, with all that said;
“Get down here, Sentinel!”
Man, the articulation on SS Prime is amazing

Okay, so maybe "actively prevents" was an exaggeration and I was just annoyed, but you do have to fiddle with things and move them out of the places the instructions say to put them.
...And as for leaving the shield on the finger... Am I seriously wrong for wanting something better?

I don't think it'll be all of them. Reedman, for example, seems rather un-toyetic. And if nothing else, I think it's safe to say Hasbro isn't going to make a toy of this guy:

I really am willing to get we get a Skids/Mudflap duo in a deluxe box to go with Devy at some point.

That should be the 2007 Megatron, yes. After him, we still have AoE Galvatron and TLK Megatron. I didn't think the BB Movie had Megatron tho...

He wasn't. He was cut because in continuity he was frozen during the entirety of the Bee movie.
I think he showed up in 1 piece of art, but that was it, and it was in his frozen state. We will not get a Bee movie Megatron.
And I also doubt we will get a new TLK Megatron, but I do believe that we will eventually get a Galvatron

For me, it bugged me because he was killed off before we barely got to know him (and that's even counting the fact that it was his third movie appearance) beyond the broad strokes of "likes weapons" and "is slightly psychopathic" (which ultimately became a trait of most Autobots in the first five movies, but I digress).ZeroWolf wrote:Are you still bitter about Ironhide's death?
It wasn't until reading the Classified novels that I got to know something more personal about Ironhide that was actually kinda neat: He's closet football fanatic, and is slightly embarrassed by it, claiming that he only watches it because it makes for good study of human strategy, even though he'll sometimes get just as riled up and excited over the game as any human fan would.

If Studio Series lasts a few more years, I wouldn't be surprised if they eventually did a new TLK Megs, or at least put out a retool/redeco of the TLK voyager, once the pool of "hey, we need to do a Studio Series version of this" starts to dwindle.

It is slightly mistransformed in the video, however. There are two side supports for the top wheel that are meant to plug in on either side, you can see them folded up on Scavenger's back in the video.
It's pretty cool to see it combined with Scrapmetal and Hightower! Hopefully soon we'll see the full combined mode.

If it wasn't for the lack of development, (which was a problem with every character and not just Ironhide) and if he was actually mourn for afterwards I think there is a great scene potential under Ironhide's death.
He was given a chance to shine the scene prior in a bad ass fight scene (whether you like it or not it's about the intent of the scene) which was all about keeping Sentinel safe from the Decepticons.
The betrayal itself from Sentinel was pretty strong and killing off the second strongest Autobot is a good way for the film to show that.
The main problem of the scene was that he was forgotten about afterwards like the gun wasn't a rust gun but a reality retcon gun.
They could of used Ironhide's death (alongside what happens with Chicago with all those human casualties) as a convincing motivation for killing Sentinel which is another controversial scene, I prefer the adaptions take where he gets shot from his rust gun in the middle of battle and he has a final conversation with Prime and Megatron before he dies, it would of been a good way to get rid of a character who probably did deserve to die after what he does in the film and it would of also been less brutal on Optimus Prime's part.
It's a shame, there are plenty of scenes that could be really good in the films but the rest of the film's make those scenes just wasted potential.

Edit: Also interesting that Overload appears to go from the knees to the noggin. So instead of Scavenger and Overload being an upper/lower torso combination, they are more like a front/back torso combination. Hmmm, I wonder if that kind of combo could work for the generations line and 6 team combiners...

Both London and Paris comic con are happening the same day and hasbro is attending both so we are bound to see something.
