Notes from the live stream:
SS86 Core Steeljaw - Confirms the speaker does attach to Blaster.
SS Gamer Edition Deluxe Decepticon Trooper - Very heavily retooled from Barricade. Evan claims the green is game accurate despite how dark he looked in the game.
SS Bumblebee Movie Voyager Skywarp - Exactly what you would expect for a a repaint of Starscream, does feature a new head similar to Blitzwing's.
SS86 Leader Springer - New chest, head, shoulders and opening hands plus new accessories including the catapult missile from the beginning of the movie, his sword from his fight with Wreck-Gar and a Wrecker's hammer just because they had more room in the molds. Hidden blaster in his wrist.
SS86 Deluxe Bumblebee - A Level confirmed, showing up in July along with Transformers One Optimus Prime. Not a parts former. Gray windows because the hinges are unpaintable PA plastic, don't expect a blue window repaint later. Autobot symbol on the hood accurately "disappears" in bot mode thanks to the transformation.
Also Leader class Straxus for Comic Edition shown, heavily retooled from Kingdom Galvatron. Canon barrel can be pegged to his back or held. Teasing new character as fourth figure (we can see perhaps a pointed shoulder and yellow hand on the spine of the box).
Bayblades crossover shown, just tops with Transformers stickers on them. Two 2 packs: Optimus Prime and Megatron, Starscream and Optimus Primal.
Talked about upcoming album, pre-order on Pulse today, digital version September 17. Followed by a quick greeting from Stan Bush.
Another promotion for Robosen Megatron. Now comes with a collector coin, also announced that 40 random figures around the world will be signed by Frank Welker for orders placed before May 26.

Lots of news for the Rise of the Beasts toyline. While the line is supposed to be released internationally on April 10th, many stores are stocking them earlier. And that gives us a look at toys we didn't even know were coming out.
So we have rereleases of toys from the Bumblebee line, which you can see below. One of the more interesting ones is an Energon Igniters Ironhide redeco which is labelled as Battletrap. It does have a render of Bayverse Ironhide though. We also see Bayverse Megatron on the rerelease of the ROTF Megatron toy from the Bumblebee line.
In similar news, we have our first look at the deluxes in individual packaging with Airazor. The box art is pretty cool since the image takes up two sides creating for a fun effect when stocking boxes, as you can see below.
And lastly, we have more shots of voyager Optimus Primal in bot mode. Two of the shots below are from a private event/exhibition in Australia and we thank
Ozformers for the images.
