Via Toyshome on Weibo we have an image of the next redeco of Toyworld’s Constructor: TW-C07H Dark Constructor.

This is a black and purple repaint of the original Constructor mold of G1 Devastator. A nice alternative to display in such dark evil colors. As and extra bonus, it includes some extra die-cast parts. This release is limited to 200 pieces worldwide and expected for release on April, 2019.

You look for a pre-order via our sponsors below. Check out the images on this news post and share your impressions on the 2005 Boards!

Via Mech Fans Toys Weibo we can share images of the gray prototype of the new Mech Fans Toys MS-19 Flame Commander (Legends Scaled Rodimus Prime).

 The Legends scaled market is sure very competitive and brings us impressive small figures, and this new release of Mech Fans Toys is no exception. Flame Commander stands only 12 cm. tall, but it can transform into a cartoon accurate Rodimus Prime with an opening chest with a Matrix, and the alt mode can split into the front car (Hot Rod style) and a trailer which can convert into a battle station for the figure. To top it all, it includes the following accessorizes: 2 guns (can combine into a bigger one), a buzzsaw, and even Hot Rod’s Targetmaster partner Firebolt.

No specific release date or price at the moment, but you can click on the bar to check out the images on this news post, and then sound off on the 2005 Boards!

Via a post on Zeta Toys Weibo to celebrate the Chinese New Year, they have also revealed the first sketch of their next project: G1 Predaking.

Zeta’s approach to the Predacon combiner seems to be based on the blocky G1 cartoon style of the characters. This may be good idea or not, depending on your preferences. We are yet to see proper renders or prototypes, but so far we have an imposing Predaking.

We still have no specific information on release date, or the individual modes of the Predacons, but stay tuned with TFW2005 for more updates. Click on the bar to see the images and join to the ongoing discussion on the 2005 Boards!

Via 十条大楠 on Weibo, we have images of the colored prototype of the upcoming Toyworld: TW-FS01, based on The Last Knight WWI Bulldog.

Toyworld brings us a representation of a character with a brief moment on The Last Knight film, but who got attention of fans for his original alt mode. This old robot was one of the veterans who was under the care of Sir Edmund Burton. He transformed into a 1917 Mark IV tank “Bulldog” from World War I.

Bulldog is made in scale with popular Studio Series line (seems like a Voyager class). As we can see from the images this mold is full of details in both modes, with great finishing and painting. You have several interchangeable display options for the head: regular face with military hat or helmet, and two different battle masks.

There’s no specific information on price or release date, but be sure to check our Boards for more information when it’s available. You can now check the images after the jump and then sound off on the 2005 Boards!

Weeks back designer Rick Akker showed off his design for an IDW Fortress Maximus. Weeks later, Mastermind Creations (via their site Planet Steel Express) announced that they have partnered with Rick to bring this design to life via a crowdfund campaign. This figure, should it reach it’s goal, will stand at 11 inches tall (to go toe to toe with MMC’s Overlord), have his signature patented leg-guns and will transform into a tank like his comic book inspiration. Crowdfunding is taking place now and Mastermind Creations’ intent is to release the figure in February of next year. You can check » Continue Reading.

Zeta Toys on Weibo have uploaded images of the gray prototype of their new Zeta Toys Zeta-V ZV-01 Pioneer (Bumblebee Movie VW Beetle Bumblebee).

This is a new line by Zeta Toys. Their first figure tries to recreate Bumblebee’s robot mode as seen in the movie, so he has no visible “door wings” on his back, they are folded over it now. This new toy includes several other accessories like a blaster, battle mask, battle hammer and 2 swords. 18 cm tall with die- cast parts. No alt mode images yet.

We still have no specific information on the price, but the announcement indicates it is due to release on summer this year. Be sure to stay tuned with TFW2005 for more information when it’s available. This is the first prototype, so changes may be done in the future.

The Studio Series SS-14 Ironhide is sure a very movie-accurate rendition of the Autobot Weapon specialist, but fans were not so happy with Ironhide’s front bumper being a single piece incapable of wrapping around his chest.

DNA Design has come to the rescue with their new DK-10 Studio Series Ironhide Upgrade Kit. This kit includes a new foldable bumper, and even more extra parts like new feet with ankle articulation, 2 extra rifles and 2 extra knives. The new weapons can be attached in robot or alt mode. The removal of the original front bumper requires you to take out a metal pin, but this kit also includes a practical pin-puncher to help you.

We are sure your optics will be pleased with the final result seen on the attached images. We still have no specific information about price or release date, but stay tuned with TFW2005 for more information. Click on the bat and share your impressions on the 2005 Boards!

This is an interesting alternative to improve your Decepticon Cityformer figure adding great light effects from Trypticon’s mouth and chest.

Shockwave Lab, via their Weibo account, have uploaded images of their next upgrade kit: SL-45 LED Matrix Unit for Siege Voyager Optimus Prime.

This is a very nice LED Matrix unit to the placed in the empty space inside Optimus Prime’s chest. It also integrates well in the alt mode. Small and as easy to install as just place it inside the figure.

This is the third LED kit upgrade by Shockwave Lab, following the SL-44 LED Upgrade Kit For Masterpiece Movie MPM-05 Barricade and the SL-43 LED Upgrade Kit For Titans Return Trypticon we reported before.

New 3P Company Civil Warrior on Weibo has just uploaded images of the gray prototype of their first project: Civil Warrior General Grant (War Within Optimus Prime).

This figure is based on the Dreamwave’s War Within Optimus Prime design, but with some changes to make him a bit more stylized. The mold looks very promising with a wide range of articulation and a solid vehicle mode. A nice alternative after the Spark Toys take on the same character. According to the information shared this new Optimus Prime mold will stand 25 cm tall, more than 30 articulation points (including fingers), die-cast and it will include a trailer (not shown). It’s expected for release in the third quarter of 2019.

Via Mechfans Toys Weibo we have our first look at their next figure: MS-25 Flywheel (Legends Scaled G1 Tracks).

This take on G1 Tracks (designed by Mechanic Studio) is a great sample of the competitive Legends scaled market. The robot mode is cartoon-accurate and with almost no hollow parts. The alt mode shines with a great metallic blue finishing, and to top it all it can transform into the iconic third flying mode. You may think this is a Deluxe figure or bigger, but don’t forget this is a Legends scaled toy.

Tasteful and subtle, our upgrades for Siege Shockwave look like the kind of details the toy was intended to have;

Last on the Siege docket, the Wave 1 Battlemasters get some love, too;

Sometimes, people are amazed at how fast we come up with sets after a toy is released. On a unrelated note check out our labels for Titans Return Alpha Trion;

Looking to get your kids involved in the hobby? These labels for Cyberbattalion Optimus and Megatron might do the trick;

Moving on to third party, we’re particularly proud of our set for Fans Toys Hydra;

Not to mention a reimagined G1-styled set for Fans Toys Hoodlum;

X-Transbots Weibo have shared images of their MX Gravestone (Masterpiece Scale G1 Motormaster) prototype for your viewing pleasure.

This is the last component of X-Transbots Monolith, their take on G1 Menasor. Gravestone looks fairly cartoon-accurate while taking some changes on the body. We think this could be due to the combiner mode. The images show it as a highly poseable figure and it will sure please fans who are collecting this Stunticon group. According to the comparisons images, Gravestone is a bit taller than MP-10 Optimus Prime and other X-Transbots Stunticons.

We are yet to see images of the full colored mold and the alt and combiner mode. Click on the bar to see the mirrored images on this news post and then join to the discussion on the 2005 Boards!

Via X-Transbots Weibo, we can share for you images of the colored prototype of their upcoming X-Transbots MX-15 Deathwish (Masterpiece Scale G1 Dead End).

MX-15 Deathwish features an excellent cartoon-accurate robot and alt mode with the perfect scale to fit any Masterpiece collection. The images let us see the great poseability of the figure and the respective comparison size with MP Bluestreak and X-Transbots MX-13 G2 Crackup (G2 Breakdown). As usual with these X-Transbots releases, this figure has got die-cast parts, rubber tires and a beautiful finishing. This mold is expected for release on April this year.

Don’t forget that the X-Transbots Stunticons can merge into Monolith/Menasor! Click on the bar to see the mirrored images on this news post, and don’t forget that you can still pre-order MX-15 Deathwish via our sponsors below.
