The "Transformers Studio Series", released by the internationally renowned toy manufacturer "Hasbro", has launched exciting new products once again! Widely beloved by Transformers fans and collectors, the Studio Series was originally created to commemorate the tenth anniversary of the live-action movies. Since its launch in 2018, it has accumulated hundreds of impressive products, boasting faithful recreation of the characters' appearances from the films, meticulously reproducing both vehicle and robot modes. The Studio Series is truly a highly popular and sought-after line. Not only that, but the series also encompasses iconic characters from the 1986 animated movie and even video games, including both Autobots and Decepticons. The diversity of characters is absolutely beyond imagination, and of course, it's "more than meets the eye"! Today, let our unboxing report give all toy enthusiasts a glimpse of the new products from the Studio Series!
▼The stars of this unboxing include two Deluxe Class figures, two Voyager Class figures, and two Leader Class figures.
▼The side of the outer box features character portraits and numbering, a thoughtful design for collectors who enjoy displaying them in a row.
▼No. 115 "Double Punch", a soldier of the Predacons army under Unicron. Their sheer numbers alone are enough to intimidate prey, and they can transform between robot and mechanical scorpion modes.
▼Includes a "Volcano Showdown" display backdrop.
▼This toy is a repaint of Series No. 107 Scorponok, with the color scheme changed to a more aggressive red as the base.
▼The head sculpt faithfully recreates the four-eyed design from the CG model, and the red markings on the body are applied via printing.
▼Articulation and balance are also quite good!
▼The scorpion tail can be removed and equipped on the arm as a weapon.
▼Regardless of whether it's Double Punch or Scorponok, even though their robot modes didn't appear in the movies, from a toy perspective, they are still incredibly fun to play with!
▼In mechanical scorpion mode, the combination of mechanical structure and arthropod texture is truly beautiful.
▼I really want to collect a few more to form a terrifying scorpion army!
▼No. 117 "Hatchet", from "Transformers: Dark of the Moon". Along with Crankcase and Crowbar, he is a member of the Decepticon Dreads, mimicking and disguising himself as a black SUV on Earth to hunt down the Autobots.
▼Includes a "High Speed Chase" display base.
▼A little fun fact: although Hatchet's outer box is numbered 117, the instructions reserve the previously vacant No. 94 spot for him in the Studio Series, making him the only product in the series with a dual number.
▼Unlike his two teammates, Hatchet possesses a more beast-like appearance.
▼The four-eyed design from the movie is also faithfully recreated, with an articulated temporomandibular joint that allows for free opening and closing.
▼The mission to hunt down and tear apart the Autobots is about to begin, awooo!
▼The joint design is remarkably close to that of a beast (wild wolf, canid), making it easy to display the characteristics of a mechanical beast.
▼Roar, pounce, fear me, Autobots!
▼Vehicle mode! Everyone can dig out Crankcase and Crowbar for a reunion!
▼The details of the vehicle's exterior are also meticulously crafted; this is the unwavering commitment of the Studio Series!
▼No. +11"Skywarp (Gamer Edition)", inspired by a member of the Decepticon Seekers squad featured in "Transformers: War For Cybertron", can transform into a Cybertronian jet and specializes in hyperspace jumps for instantaneous attacks on enemies.
▼Includes a background base for "Reactivate the Bridge".
▼A repaint of Starscream, No. 6 from the same series, and includes a Thermo Rocket Launcher and an Energon Hammer as weapons.
▼The head sculpt almost perfectly brings the in-game face to reality.
▼Like other characters in the same series, it retains the detachable right arm mechanism, allowing for free attachment of various weapons.
▼Following the above, the right arm can be detached and equipped with the rocket launcher.
▼The hammer can also be held freely.
▼The Thermo Rocket Launcher can also be held directly by hand, equip it however you like!
▼Vehicle mode, recreating the triangular Cybertronian jet form from the game, a homage to G1 animation!
▼Just one more blue guy to complete the classic Seeker trio; please release them all!
▼No. 102"Optimus Prime", inspired by "Transformers: Rise of the Beasts", the brave and wise leader of Cybertron, hiding on Earth with the Autobots, biding their time. This toy design recreates his truck cab form, concealed among humans in the movie, and can transform into robot mode.
▼Includes a background base for "Street Festival Stakeout".
▼Includes an axe and hand cannon as weapons, which can normally be stored on his back. This version of Optimus Prime is essentially a re-release with new packaging. For those who missed the initial yellow-packaged first edition, don't let this opportunity pass you by again!
▼The head sculpt faithfully recreates his appearance from the movie, with intricate details on the faceplate.
▼The articulation is also excellent; whether in dynamic or static poses, he exudes coolness.
▼After folding the fists into the forearms, both weapons can be attached!
▼The iconic jumping shot from the original big movie is easily mastered by this movie version of Optimus Prime!
▼Vehicle mode: The red truck cab, most familiar to Transformers fans, makes its reappearance! Both weapon parts can also be stored at the rear of the vehicle.
▼Optimus Prime's transformation process has always been a true test of designers' creativity. How to innovate upon the classic foundational mechanics to create something new – the true essence of this experience will likely need to be savored by toy enthusiasts themselves!
▼No. 116 "Apelinq", inspired by "Transformers: Rise of the Beasts", the former leader of the Maximals, who led members like Optimus Primal in guarding the artifact "Transwarp Key". To buy time for everyone, he single-handedly stayed behind to face the threat of Scourge, passing on the great responsibility of guardianship to Optimus Primal.
▼Included is a "Jungle Planet Fight" diorama base, recreating the site of Apelinq's heroic sacrifice.
▼Remolded from the series' No. 106 Optimus Primal, with some parts changed to recreate Apelinq's gorilla mode.
▼The beast mode also features an opening and closing mouth. The intricate sculpting, blending both fur and mechanical textures, is truly worth appreciating in detail.
▼Included is the movie's MacGuffin – the "Transwarp Key".
▼Utilizing the joints effectively, posing him in a gorilla chest-thump is absolutely no problem!
▼Apelinq's robot mode, which did not appear in the movie, is now completed by this toy!
▼The head sculpt has been changed to a fully masked mode, making him number one in epidemic prevention.
▼The arms feature an asymmetrical design, with both shoulder and arm armor having dry-brush-like battle damage patterns applied via printing.
▼The arm blades from gorilla mode can be removed and used as dual swords.
▼Once all the chain's joints are straightened, it can be used as a pair of bludgeons!
▼When all the armaments are integrated, it can be wielded as a kusarigama! This is truly awesome, worthy of our great Apelinq!
▼No. 86-31 "Galvatron", from the 1986 film "The Transformers: The Movie". After a decisive battle with his arch-nemesis Optimus Prime, a shattered Megatron was abandoned by the ambitious Starscream. Drifting through space, he was forced to accept Unicron's modifications, reborn as the new leader of the Decepticons.
▼Included is a "Bad Comedy" background cardboard, perfect for recreating the classic scene where Starscream is obliterated by the returning Galvatron's single blast!
▼For those who find the number 31 somewhat familiar, yes, you're not mistaken; the Optimus Prime we previously introduced was also No. 31. It seems this is yet another beautiful numbering error.
▼This 86th edition is a repaint of the Generations Kingdom version, featuring a color scheme closer to "The Transformers: The Movie", and of course, correcting the shoulder installation error of the initial release.
▼The head sculpt faithfully recreates Galvatron's appearance from the movie.
▼Includes the ultimate treasure of leadership, the "Matrix of Leadership", with a connectable necklace part that can be worn by Galvatron to recreate the movie scene.
▼In addition to his signature Fusion Cannon, it also includes two additional rifles inspired by Unicron's gift to Galvatron, the battleship "Revenge", which can be stored on his back or combined into a handheld weapon to enhance Galvatron's firepower.
▼"Coronation Starscream?... This is BAD COMEDY!"
▼In self-propelled cannon mode, all the aforementioned accessories can also be mounted!
▼Blasting the Autobots? That's a job best left to our professional Emperor of Destruction!
