NEWS
00:07:15 reputed Weibo user TF-Factory seems to be providing evidence of a new evergreen cross generations line. Though the content of the packaging are edited out, this new reveal seems to feature Evergreen Autobot Bumblebee for what looks as though Deluxe and Voyager iterations.
It’s difficult to tell exactly what these are for, but the packaging is vastly different from Authentics Bravo Assortment and the blister carded 7 inch Project Storm Assortment.

00:16:46 we have a look at a possible test shot of Movie Studio Series Grimlock.
We have a single image of what seems to be the expected new Movie Studio Series Leader Class mold Grimlock. No official confirmation about it, so take it with a grain of salt.

Other news
00:26:01 Via 3P TFEVO Weibo account we have a look at the color prototype of TE-01 Hot Fire (Masterpiece Scaled TLK Hot Rod).
This a very impressive and movie-accurate TLK Hot Rod which, according to what we can see from the images, has got an excellent level of detail, and even the back of the figure looks very solid and with only a bit of kibble. It is made to be on scale with the new Masterpiece Movie figures like Bumblebee.

00:31:16 Via DX9 Weibo account we get some great images of the color prototype of DX9 x Uniquetoys K3 La Hire.
This is a DX9 Toys project that also get the collaboration of Unique Toys to bring us a highly detailed Masterpiece scaled TLK Hot Rod. This figure proves to be very nice molded and with a very accurate alt mode. We have a look at the extra accessories that it will include: 1 energy gun and 1 submachine gun. Additionally, they are offering 2 extra flame accessories for the guns and one Viviane Wembly mini-figure that can hold Merlin’s staff and can sit on the driver seat in the alt mode.
DX9 Facebook also gives us a description of other features and material of this new Hot Rod:
K3 LA HIRE is a royal guard knight.
Its size is matched with the MPM series. The door can be opened in the vehicle mode and put the action figure in.
The car spoilers can be adjusted up and down.It also contain many alloy parts. Its vehicle mode is perfectly matched with the real car whose back wheels are larger than the front ones.
The waist is made of rubber tube.
Coming in the middle of the 2018

00:38:34 FansToys FT-39 Jabber Prototype. This is Fans Toys take on a Masterpiece scaled G1 Blurr. The images show a very cartoon-accurate mold that looks great together with other G1 third season Masterpiece figures like Rodimus Prime or Fans Toys previous releases like Fans Toys FT-22 – Koot (Kup) and Fans Toys FT-24 Rouge (Arcee). The figure will include a rifle and Blurr’s Targetmaster partner Haywire.
