They've released up to the mid 20s. There's numbers into the 40s but that's not inclusive - we don't know who 31 is for example.

Now that's a nice looking figure. I'm glad I've not yet gone in on Siege Prime, since this one looks like a much more interesting G1-esque update. Different aesthetic, I know, but this just seems a lot more interesting. Especially since the truck doesn't have a pizza box on top of the cab.

Hasbro needs to start feeding its designers better.

Its funny, because while I totally get the complaints that Hasbro are leaning waaay too much on G1 Prime and not mixing things up more, I really want this, and his Seige counterpart. It helps that he leans more into the movie aesthetic while Seige looks much more "toy-like".

Toy designers are damned if they do and damned if they don't. If they bring out too much in the G1 aesthetic they get slaughtered for not trying something different but if they try something different they get slaughtered for it not being G1 enough so doesn't look like the character.
Not on this board per se, but just a general observation of the wider fandom. It's not unique to Transformers either.

I'm of the opinion that the Movie designs are far to far removed from the traditional Transformers designs. If they'd have started off with an Op like that, instead of a robot skeleton with bits of vehicle hanging off, I'd have been much more interested!
Almost certainly buying this!

The movie designs, almost every single one, were horrendous. Like theyd gone out their way to make them look as bad as possible.

Is the last picture in that set still one of the Constructicons, or is that a Studio Series Shockwave?

Looks like Shockwave. Web Page has what looks like Nitro Zeus on it

Wow. So we're going to have to wait until next year to complete movie Devastator? That's definitely a long game. Which I'll certainly be playing. But it is a very long time...

Makes it more affordable though. I usually ignore Studio Series (not my cup of tea) but a combiner...that comes out slowly...I could be tempted... -Ralph

That's a valid point - if all the components did come out at once, this one'll set you back nearly £200. So yeah, a slow release is better. Now we just hope either Hasbro or Takara (and preferably both) stick to the plan...
