JTPrime recently uncovered multiple “bundles” for figures in Studio Series and Legacy! Here’s the Studio Series ones:
TRA GEN STUDIO SERIES DLX TF6 BUNDLE 1
Product Number: D3411
TRA GEN STUDIO DLX 86 AND TF6 BUNDLE 1
Product Number: D3412
TRA GEN STUDIO SERIES DLX 86 BUNDLE
Product Number: D3413
TRA GEN STUDIO SERIES DLX TF2 BUNDLE
Product Number: D3414
TRA GEN STUDIO SERIES DLX TF6 BUNDLE 2
Product Number: D3415
TRA GEN STUDIO DLX 86 AND TF6 BUNDLE 2
Product Number: D3416
TRA GEN STUDIO SERIES DLX TF5 BUNDLE
Product Number: D3417
These items are apparently meant for Walmart, and we have info on one of the packs (the TF2 one)
So it looks like Deluxe 2-packs! If I had to guess, the TLK one is likely the WWII Autobots

If my guess is right, this could be a way to get the netflix Bee mold out again in a pack with B-127, movie VW or jeep bee. The other SS86/TF6 pack would probbaly be either Cliffjumper, Brawn or Arcee as the only ones I camn think of with deluxe figures from TF6 and SS86. I suppose a redecoed ER Wheeljack could be released under the SS86 name and fit as well.
I'm very curious to see what this might end up being.
Edit: On second thought I think versus type packs might be a bit too tough mainly because of the lack of deluxe cons to choose from, which makes me realize this might be a very autobot heavy assortment, even more than normal.

-TF6 Bundle 1: Shatter & Dropkick
-86 & TF6 Bundle 1: Arcee Evolution
-86 Bundle 1: Kup & Blurr
-TF6 Bundle 2: Two Random Autobots from Cybertron
-86 & TF6 Bundle 2: Bumblebee Evolution
-TF5 Bundle: either WWII Bee & Hot Rod or some character who'd probably get a repackaged toy like Barricade a la High Octane Bee.

Also, it would be nice if one of the SS86 & TF6 bundles does in fact include VW Bumblebee.
Just hoping we get official word sooner than later.

Hound in the proper Earth Jeep mode and Suntreaker with no clear plastic for better yellow paint/plastic matching.
Hope that we can get a proper Bumblebee turns into a VW Bug. We've waiting long enough.

Agreed on all points.
Next question; these seem like they’d be exclusives.
But exclusives for which company, & when will these be released?

These were found in the Walmart computer system, rumor is that they're for Black Friday.

Thanks for the heads-up... Now, will getting any of these be next to impossible?

If the Black Friday rumor is true, then these would have to be repacks of some sort. I can't see any actual new figures make it this close to on shelves without being leaked.
This has me wondering, remember back in the Power Core Combiner days, Walmart literally shrink wrapped a larger set of the Scout Class bot and 4 drone limbs to a smaller Scout Class bot with armor/weapon mini-con? Those had their own bottom and unique barcode covering up the bar codes for the 2 individual packages.
I wonder if this will be something similar with 2 deluxe packages pretty much taped together with their own package back/bottom and unique barcode. Oddly enough, aside from TF2 Arcee who shelf warmed pretty bad in her day, all the other spots could be easily filled by bots that came out on 2022. It was weird checking the wiki, other than TF3 Bee, every other 2022 release could be in one of those bundles. SS86 Perceptor and Arcee probably aren't enough to fill out all the SS86 spots so likely some Kups and Blurrs will be mixed in, but I can see these being heavily slanted to 2022 when distribution was screwed up and previous shelf warmers if they are hitting stores for Black Friday.

There is no chance these include the target exclusive SS86 Hound

So this could be black friday two packs from last year which did not happen where Hasbro would have provided Walmart with a bunch of extra stock, like SS86 Arcee and Sideways, taped together with a new UPC sticker and sold at less than the retail of two toys.
This might be why not all TF fan sites have posted this news, as it might simply be old news that never came to be.

The big takeaway from fans so far has been the rubber-like cockpit. While some dislike the idea, others point out that it means it won't break like it would were it clear plastic. You'll let us know how you feel about the toy.
Posted by william-james88 on October 31st, 2023 @ 9:09am CDT
This is pretty big news on its own, since it seems Amazon Japan is reverting to its stance from years ago about disabling some foreign customers from ordering toys off their site. Right now it seems people in Europe and Australia can order SS 122 Optimus Prime (that's the code number for their release of ROTB Prime) but Americans see it as "not available" and the same can be said for MP Rhinox.
Back to Optimus Prime, if you do want to order it, the Japanese retailer Amiami still accepts preorders, and the toy is only $28 USD before shipping. Here is the link: https://www.amiami.com/eng/detail/?scod ... 0510&rank=
That link above is one of your last chances to get this toy at a reasonable price, and once it sells out all that will be left is him on e-bay for $80-$100

Also that rubber cockpit isn't going to make things any better. Outside of it sounding wrong to say I doubt it'd be any more durable than clear plastic tends to be.
Posted by Sabrblade on October 31st, 2023 @ 10:16am CDT
It's not that the cockpit is made of rubber, it's that it's simply too large, making it look bulbous.
Posted by Grahf_ on October 31st, 2023 @ 12:00pm CDT
And great, the cockpit won't break...like all the other cockpits as it's been a long time since I seen one with translucent plastic actually break. But now it's likely to disintegrate instead. Or melt. Or crack due to getting dry. Snag on something and rip. There's actually more stuff that can happen to that cockpit now instead.

The original cockpit didn't open, this one does to store the head inside which makes it a possible breaking point. But softer plastic doesn't necessarily solve that problem, just look at Titans Return Weirdwolf. And since when did Hasbro care about clear plastic breaking with all the clear tabs they've been using in recent years. It's unfortunate that they didn't just sculpt the canopy to make the cockpit appear smaller and add paint to finish the illusion. In the old days the canopy would have been on a separate larger door and it would be two parts.

Transformers Studio Series 102 Optimus Prime is selling for double on e-bay due to Target not stocking him enough on shelves and online.
I had wanted a copy of this figure, but as scarce as Target has made them? He's not been worth the trouble to track him down. It seems a nice figure, but I have no intention of paying the scalper's ransom they're asking for on Ebay. Same with Buzzworthy Origin Jazz. Target seems to be having a general problem with all their 'exclusives' lately.
And now I hear that Studio Series 86 Hound is slated to be in the Target Buzzworthy line as well. That scares me, because it means he will also be impossible to find. Walmart has rightly been skewered over the lousy way they handled Velocitron Cosmos and other exclusive figures. But Target is equally guilty. And given how Hasbro is supposed to be working and coordinating with these retailers to make sure they have enough product for everyone who wants to buy? It's hard to know exactly who to blame. It's like that scene in Grapes of Wrath. "Well - who do we shoot?"

To put it simply, it's something I've said before, something is going on between toy makers and retailers and we'll never know what if we don't ask, ask often, and ask loudly.

Importing anything from Japan is VERY expensive.
Expect at the bare minimum 4K to 5K JPY in shipping alone from a standard deluxe to a standard leader.

Since his leak over a year ago, Hound was ALWAYS Buzzworthy.

Plus it's a laugh anyway. If Hasbro made that cockpit out of soft plastic because they were 'concerned that clear plastic might break'? What does that say about how they're using almost nothing BUT clear plastic on so many other figures? (We're looking at YOU, SS 86 Ironhide, Ratchet, B-127, WFC Prowl, and a host of others). Hasbro sure as heck doesn't seem concerned about THOSE breaking....

So far, I've been transforming SS86 Ratchet and Ironhide back and forth over and over and I really don't see how anything can break. The only way would be to force things the wrong way on purpose, or to throw the toy at a brick wall with full force.

If you're ginger with them, you can avoid fractures. It remains to be seen how well these will hold up over time once the plastic gets older and more brittle, as it invariably does. In any case, if clear plastic is durable (as long as you make it a little thicker), why didn't they use it for the Gamerverse Starscream?

The minds of the designers are unfathomable.

It’s not exact, but it is inspired by it! The overall color scheme was taken from that Night Ops Ratchet, the red springs on the shoulders were meant to evoke that figure’s big red shoulder Autobot logos.
Here’s a better look at him:

Unfortunately it seems there was some error in the naming, Sideways is packed with 86 Arcee and is labelled as 86 and TF6, whereas Bee and Jolt are the TF2 pack.
EDIT: No pics yet, but JTPrime is looking for pics for the TF5 pack and a second TF2 pack!

Why would they? These are repacks of existing mass retail product from two lines that are still ongoing. Cosmos was part of the Velocitron line, which was an exclusive line, has been dead since last year, and even had a completely different packaging style from these.Deathsanras wrote:They couldn't do Cosmos?

And most of them will be again, even at those prices. Many of those are action on the pegs as singles at Walmarts currently. Especially those Arcees...

Its funny, i own at least one figure out of pretty much every set here except for jazz and gnaw, and dead end and skullgrin. Definitely getting those 2.
Interestingly enough, I see no Breakdown thrown in, despite the other 3 Stunticons being there.
