Seibertron is on the field at New York Comic Con and while we already got the reveal of Both Titan Scorponok (with his headmaster) and Earthrise Starscream, a picture of Wheeljack has surfaced online. You can find it below. The vehicle is of an earthly nature, but then again, just as earthly as Siege Sideswipe was. What is interesting is the armor/weapon. We can see connection points which work with the modular nature of the base bots like Ironworks. So you can build you own mini city with lots of accessories. let us know what you think. We are sure to get more images soon, so stay tuned.

These too are from a removed ToyWiz listing.Nemesis Primal wrote:Found another new render on TFW but the site isn't letting me post it because it doesn't like the resolution: The Military Patrol is Bombshock and *looks at notes* Growl? The orange one, I don't collect Micromasters sorry. Both look like new molds, and Growl has a 5 mm post/handle visible above his head, so weapon modes are most likely still a thing. I'll keep trying to get it posted so people will actually believe me.

Bumping this as it was a penny short and a post late.
But a Space Bridge would play in nicely for the idea of Earthrise. To get to Earth you could fly an Ark, or take a Space Bridge. *shrug*

Upon further scrutiny, I fully agree. I was in a hurry when I made that post. I now think that this screamer is a mix of classics and masterpiece engineering.

I see a lot of differences. Looks like the actual alt mode nosecone is in his chest and does not form the shoulder stacks in bot. His hips and thigh swivels look completely different.

Live from the floors of New York Comic Con, we have new images of the newly revealed Transformers War for Cybertron Earthrise figures! Earthrise continues the War for Cybertron stories following Siege, and is the middle part of the War for Cybertron Trilogy. Earthwise features a return to more Earth based alternate modes, and drops the battle damage aesthetic that Siege utilized.
The new bots shown were Hoist, Grapple, Cliffjumper, Wheeljack, Ironworks, Soundbarrier, Starscream, Optimus Prime as well as some Micromasters.
Here is what we learnt from John Warden, concerning all these new toys.
The new gimmick is shields that can connect to base bots to make a bigger base.
While there will still be Battlemasters, there will also be armour based bots that will help build the bases with clear pieces. Soundbarrier, a new character, is who was on display to represent these new bots.
Earthrise Prime shares parts with Siege prime but has a different Transformation. The matrix is removeable and he has silver hands.
Cliffjumper comes with the giant cannon he had in the G1 show for one episode. He fits in Optimus' trailer. Cliffjumper is his own mold and not meant to be Bumblebee down the road. You can add modular elements to him (same with Hoist).
Hoist can tow characters or attach to your mini cities and his robot mode can become a bridge like he did in G1.
Astrotrain will be rereleased in Earthrise packaging since he (and Omega) work with the new base building system.
Deluxes like Ironworks are called Modular Battlestations and in earthrise we will be getting the classic bases from g1 turned into partsforming bots.
Check out our images below, and let us know what you think of these new figures in the comments section below! And stay tuned for more New York Comic Con coverage on Seibertron.com!

I'll be intrigued to see more product details. Wheeljack looks pretty nice, but I'll stick with the RTS version if the new one doesn't come with similar weapons/accessories. The shield does not do anything for me.

This is actually ONLY PARTIALLY CORRECT. There are still Battlemasters, but the only one they showed and talked about is Battlemaster Soundbarrier, who does what WJ said. That translucent blue shield piece comes with him, NOT Wheeljack. You can see him in the picture, he's the little white and blue guy standing in Prime's open trailer.

I have to admit that I am very disappointed that we didn't end up with Cybertron versions of Bumblebee and Wheeljack like we did with the seekers. I really wanted boxy Wheeljack and UFO Bee.

Why?
Saw more pix from the show of the new Optimus Prime, they dropped the ball with the deco this time. Grey hands, crotch, intake, biceps and inner lower legs. Missing yellow on the pelvis. And the face is painted like the MC model. The whole thing makes him look cheap IMO. Maybe I should hold off for an edition with a better deco? (I miss pre brand-unification Takara.)
And he does have wheels on his lower back like Studio OX!

EarthRise Cliffjumper has pipe biceps. Most likely because of Bumblebee. And the transformation seems very inspired by MP-21 Bumblebee.
Looks like Hasui is using a lot of his tricks here. Overall the designers have really stepped up the main line. Some of the figures even come with accessories that they had on the show, just like the MP line (like Prime's Matrix, Cliffumper's cannon, etc.)
I meant it as a straight up fact, really.
But I do think it's time they made at least one CHUG Prime and Starscream with the wheels and nosecone completely hidden.

Based off Cliffjumper's looks, it's entirely possible that Bumblebee will be his own mold. If not, then it'll be an extreme retool. A simple head swap and recolor won't work this time.
Might buy Hoist for nostalgia reasons. One of my best friends (who I haven't been in contact with for years...
) had a reissue of the G1 figure. It confused the hell out of me because I had grown up with the Unicron Trilogy, so seeing something made of die cast and removable hands was something completely alien to me. Took me several years to figure out that was Hoist's original toy, actually found out thanks to this very site. 
...I'm rambling again, aren't I?

Hoist looked Hoisty and great, then sees side view....Eeew. painted fake windows that are a throwback to classics Ironhide and mismatched wheels for whatever reason. Still buying him but once again another car figure that might as well not have a alt but big thumbs up for all his panels being the correct color.
Was really hoping cliffjumper came with a pretender shell. he does look like the new MP bee in some ways which must be the justification charging deluxe prices for legends sized figures (hey if they can get away with it for leaderclass why not).
Will wait for better pics of wheeljacks alt and if the whites match each other unlike redalert/artic megs. Edit* nope, looking like classics is the winner at the moment for car mode.
Primes hands will need repainting, might wait for a better paint version. Edit*the earlier photos looked better with the blue legs and no arm stripe. It's something that's going to take a bit more than just painting the hands for it to look right
Who is the white car hiding in the hangar?

The main line is getting an MP-like Hoist before the actual MP line.
This is basically the same toy except that it's a brand new mold, and likely has better articulation.
I suspect the arms/hands collapse in a similar fashion to MP-39 Sunstreaker before they're flipped into the torso like Henkei. And the feet fold down instead of up, it seems. Was hoping ten years of engineering would fix some of the things I didn't like about the old mold.

Looks like I will be retiring the Gdo Cliffjumper... Just not the Prime Hammer. Because what goes with a gun that makes things brittle as glass better than HAMMAH TIME
For being G1, I am glad we are getting some lesser used Guys. We dont have a lot of Grapple or Hoist Figures i will be getting both...
And possibly Screamer, depending on how many Seekers we get...
And Prime
And the Base Dudes
And the Micromasters
Would anyone like to buy a Kidney?

Im a little conflicted with starscream because if were getting the rest of the og3 seekers id rather hold off on getting the siege ones, but if not maybe they do the coneheads like in the classics line? Overall earth rise is looking really solid, but wheres the rest of the cons lol?

Well, hopefully we do get a Bumblebee from this line at some point. Cliff's new mold reminds me a lot of MP-21, I dig it.
Starscream's looking really good too, I might be picking him up.

Haven't all original 84 cons been done in Siege already?
How different would that be from Siege megs?

He would turn into a cigarette lighter in the shape of a gun, modern day size class restrictions
Choro Q kind of did it first o.O

Wheeljack, Cliffjumper, and Hoist are definitely awesome looking. Might get Grapple to go with Hoist. I'm glad the Battlemasters are continuing, and even coming with ramps for bases. Despite my initial dislike of going back to Earth modes so quickly, I do like that Cliffjumper's getting his own mold

So Astrotrain isn't coming out until Earthrise next year. I hate it.

Next year is going to be expensive, that's for sure. That Starscream looks literally perfect, so I'm definitely going to get every use of it I can. Also, I'm pretty sure Cliffjumper is going to be retooled into one of the battle chargers. Up to this point the only thing I don't like is the inconsistent windows on Hoist.

I'm wondering. Even though there's been no indication thus far, suppose that the reason they made all of the plastic for Prime's trailer and hands gray instead of blue is because of there being a yet-to-be revealed Roller that comes with the set, whose plastic is gang-molded with the trailer and hands, and that they wanted said Roller to be show-accurate gray instead of blue.

Sinxe this is all mimicking the pattern of Siege reveals (pure GEEWUN pandering+obscure things remade as weaponizers+targetmasters and micromasters, anyone want to take bets on which character from outside of GEEWUN will show up as a retool? Last time we got Galaxy Convoy. My guess is logically it would be a retool of the unseen second Leader mold as something else or a Voyager retool of some kind.
Any ideas?
