I am very excited for the G2 dinobots, especially if we are going to get a G2 Volcanicus. Star Convoy is an interesting pick, ideally, I'd want a massive box set of Star Convoy and some other micromaster bases.
I think Titan Class STAR CONVOY will be a Commander Class with steroids accessories. Kinda like how Leader Class is basically Voyagers with extra accessories. I think HASBRO’s dubbing their larger figures according to what’s included, not so much the height of the figure and the complexity of the transformation/parts count etc.
Hmm...for that Star Convoy, here's hoping they didn't take the wrong idea from Star Saber and Deathsaurus from the Haslabs, since they were Commander Class-ish in scale, but their prices were approaching Titan Class price points
@eventprogenitor1873 Smaller but more complexe. Jetfire is huge but he's not more complicated than a voyager or leader Magmatron is second shortest commander but he's very complexe.
No, the whole reason they’re doing SS Devastator the way the way they are is because combiners at Titan class do not work. Nexus will likely be 2027s commander class and his components will all be released that same year. As he needs Superion and Bruticus parts to be recolored for his whole combiner team.
If the star convoy comes with grandes and they just have it say star convoy to get the general audience interested because like you said who actually knows what grand this is besides a few hard-core fans
But we already have the Core Class Hot Rod for it. I reckon he's the perfect size for Star Optimus. It may be an odd choice for a Hot Rod of a class now discontinued, but it's the closest.
Me too! That would be amazing. Sadly since we're getting the MPG versions next year probably means that won't happen for like another 5 or so years. I just hope I'm wrong about thatt, and it comes sooner.
I guess a Titan is too big for Apex Prime, but I think a Commander would be just enough. Have the base PM Optimus as a Voyager figure, then make him a Leader size if we make him SPM.
Maybe the titan class prime is a 2 pack with Super Megatron. Kinda match what they said about haslab 2001 prime/ultra Magnus. About not wanting to take up 2 years for one set of commanders. Leaves about commander class budget for both figures.
I have the Star Convoy that they remolded from the POTP Optimus. While he is far from perfect, I still enjoy that iteration…plus he has the perfect counter balance in the form of his fellow Gen Selects Super Megatron. So I don’t know if I would be personally down to replace them, but that’s just a personal choice.
to celebrate the 40th, i would have Star Prime kind of be something like an evolution figure, like we have a small Orion pax that becomes and optimus prime, that becomes a Power Master Optimus Prime and Finally the final form, Star Convoy, similar to the POTP Optimus but more advance. i do like a small retool of the POTP optimus have the small cab be something like Optimus/Ginrai, then have the bigger armor be Super ginrai/PMOP and finally all that fit into a suit of armor aka star convoy
Star convoy is a odd choice indeed. We have older titan classes in need of trademark renewals. Such as Trypticon or Predaking. Or other characters like Broadside that should get a titan class treatment. Who wants to bet that Omega Prime was originally planned as a titan class, and their choice to move it to haslab had them scrambling to find another Optimus to fill the hole? God Gin-Rye would have been a fantastic choice if it wasn't for the MPG one dropping next year too. That wouldn't be a wise move. Having a updated Cybertron Primus as the titan makes the most sense in a line about Primes if you ask me. Sigh...maybe the next one in 2026 perhaps.
@@frenchfriedbagel7035 How so? It's 2 commander classes with a smaller figure and it's sword. We'd lose only the display bases and maybe have to have the character that becomes his gun be a seperate figure sold seperately. That's about it. Haslab projects always way over charges for it's projects. Protoman mentions it every single project including for Omega Prime. If I remember correctly he said this could have easily been a titan class on it's own in his past videos descussing it. He deffinetly said this guy was barely a change from the original figures. So I'd hardly say it would "seriously" compramise it
@@ZedMazaus480 no chromed pieces, smaller scale, Reduced articulation, cheaper plastic usage to compensate for the added level of engineering required. And most importantly. No giant sword. Also, they 100% reworked Ultra Magnus. His legs clearly transform differently and his thighs no longer make up Omegas stomach. Those are actually some pretty notable changes outside of all the smaller stuff they added.
@@frenchfriedbagel7035 Even then they're still only 2 commander classes by themselves. WITH NO ACCESSORIES mind you. That alone cuts back their costs, from being the $90US price tag each. It's based off total parts count as well as engineering and plastic used. So even changing certain things like the legs from the original is completely meaningless to the anything p increasing the normal developing cost. Protoman broke down the value cost of each figure and accessory in the project, and guess what if you'd remove the bases you'd have a slightly higher priced titan class. That's it The bases use way more plastic than the sword since they need to hold both vehicles and is 2 seperate parts on top of that. If you don't agree that's fine, but I'm not going to discuss this any further since we're both getting to heated on this, and can't see eye to eye on it.
My guess is that Silverbolt will be similar to Motormaster, with the combiner parts turning into either the G1 runway or a tiny aircraft carrier. A titan class Star Convoy does sound excessive unless some madman on the design team managed to convince Hasbro to make him scale with SS86 Hot Rod instead of a Micromaster.....
I've seen a fan design somewhere before on Reddit for a Titan Class Star Convoy, (I personally prefer to call him Super Optimus Prime) Grandus, and Sky Garry (name was probably mistranslated and is supposed to be Sky Carry) so people definitely want to see the trio done in Titan scale.
I hope this star convoy is a 2-pack with super megatron, and maybe comes with that velocitron hot rod we never got too. And then a shit ton of accessories.
Maybe star convoy is a titan class in engineering but a commander class in size. We do have ss86 optimus prime as a commander class but in a voyager size robot.
And with Star Convoy I feel like titan class will be now commander class but for 200$, I feel like they upscaled Fire Convoy so they could make titan Gigatron (if he won't be a haslab next year).
Having missed out on the last version of star convoy... I'll be upset if this is true and theyre reworking him into some weird giant titan class toy. Would very much rather have something commander or voyager classed instead.
@@cilffjumper290x5 Damn that sucks for me. I really wanted Bruticus next year. I mean I already have a ton of Decepticons for my G1 collection so I guess it's not that bad.
I'm always a big sucker for anything Optimus Prime, but even I am getting Optimus fatigue. I think SS 86 Prime will be the last one I get for a while. I'm super excited for Superion though ! I love some combiners 😊
Titan Star Convoy is awesome, hopefully he comes with a little Hotrod. Could see the G1 retro figures being G1 carded style figures, can't wait to see Seaspray.
After hearing you, Protoman, talk about the Age of Primes Titan Class Star Convoy, I looked through my Transformers The Manga vol 3. What if this Titan Class Star Convoy is actually...the three Combiner Battlestar attack? That would mean that this Titan Class release would have Star Convoy, Grandus, and Skygarry. This Titan Class release is probably called "Star Convoy", because that's the Transformers that U.S. folks know from the previous Transformers release. While the Japanese know about Grandus and Skygarry, U.S. folks don't know who Grandus and Skygarry are.
The one thing I’m wondering is how long until they decide to release the two superLink combiners to make Nexus prime, let’s phase it you know they wouldn’t pass up a chance to do that toy, and then recolor it into the combiners originally was
@@randallxcain9935 or they make Nexus prime first and then make the super link combiners at least Brutus because they already have the three molds to make it. They just need to make doubles of the same mold
@@ajerjavec4723 three molds for Superlink bruticus, what? Nexus Prime is either gonna be a G1 combiner rehash or not happen at all, they're not gonna gamble with the superlink combiners, modern hasbro isn't that brave
@@randallxcain9935 super link combiners are made of three molds the torso and two basic limbs and two different colors and the original Nexus prime was just Brutus with a new head two limbs from superion and do you really think Hasbro will turn down one of the easiest recolors and retool opportunities plus I don’t think that G1 Picus or superior even look like the components to make Nexus prime
@@ajerjavec4723 I think they would turn them down as they would have to make brand new molds for them, and would definitely be forced to sell each component as an individual character, or as full Titan class figures, both are risky gambles for characters from the most hated show, it'd be far easier, cheaper, and safer to do Nexus from the g1 combiners, they're not doing the superlink ones for a long, long ass time
I've got a bad feeling about that Titan Star Convoy. Methinks we're gonna get retooled 86 Commander Optimus with a bunch of "parts". Aka, the smallest Titan figure yet.
But silverbolt didn't have any frame pieces, it just had connectors. I seen how both it and menasor combines, and menasor had the frames. The aerialbots literally connected to each other directly without any extra pieces, so I'm not expecting any skeleton parts, just a big sized silverbolt
This is just me but since "deluxe" for Seaspray and Brawn is spelt out and lowercase instead of "Dlx" I think deluxe in this case means a deluxe paint scheme on a G1 reissue like the recent Prime and Insecticons and Blaster etc. from Walmart

I think they may have chose Star Convoy because 2025 is Japans 40th Anniversary of transformers.
Still a weird choice.

I think HASBRO’s dubbing their larger figures according to what’s included, not so much the height of the figure and the complexity of the transformation/parts count etc.
I’m okay with that, but as far as size goes, they give a decent attempt to keep them in scale with each other.

he better be huge
@@masterfarr8265commanders have been getting smaller it's likely a modified ultra magnus.
I think we’re about to see smaller titans.
The original Star Convoy was a mobile base, so it might be an actual one, but who knows.
@eventprogenitor1873 Smaller but more complexe.
Jetfire is huge but he's not more complicated than a voyager or leader
Magmatron is second shortest commander but he's very complexe.
Im hoping star convoy is smaller than a regular titan but bigger than commander jetfire. that way they can REALLY put the budget to use
The titan should’ve been nexus prime in my opinion but star convoy is also a good choice
No, the whole reason they’re doing SS Devastator the way the way they are is because combiners at Titan class do not work.

Maybe a deluxe hotrod that combines into it. Probably be like the Haslab treatment smaller but titan price
But we already have the Core Class Hot Rod for it. I reckon he's the perfect size for Star Optimus. It may be an odd choice for a Hot Rod of a class now discontinued, but it's the closest.
Sense they're doing a Titan class Convoy, I hope they'll do Titan Class Powermaster Optimus Prime with Apex Bomber.
Me too! That would be amazing. Sadly since we're getting the MPG versions next year probably means that won't happen for like another 5 or so years. I just hope I'm wrong about thatt, and it comes sooner.

man i’m so hyped for 2025. so glad i got back into collecting in 2022, now we are getting devastator superion potentially bruticus and star convoy!

Star Convoy is from the Japanese continuity, so I’d skip the powermaster step.
Star Convoy is 45 meters tall. Canonically, hes taller than g1 omega supreme. Its a fair choice for the size.

You just deflated your own argument.
Hasbro really needs to show us why that star convoy is at that scale. Otherwise, it will feel like they are just price gouging the collectors.

Titan class Star Convoy with Sky Garry, and micromaster Hot Rod would work.
