Uhh when is that?
Some official reveals of Studio Series figures for ROTB happened while we were off - Scourge, Bumblebee and Battletrap were revealed and it’s been a while, so we’re assuming you’ve seen them but let’s take a look.
Bumblebee (Deluxe) & Battletrap (Voyager)
Voyager Class: Cheetor
Leader Class: Scourge
Core Class: Arcee & Freezer
There’s a deluxe Airazor in the mix as well but we’ve seen her before … twice, in fact.
We have a bit more info on Freezer this week, with information from Hasbro designer King Sam Lock on Instagram that Freezer actually works with Scourge!
Turret mode connecting to the back of Scourge in vehicle mode looks GREAT.
