Radio Free Cybertron - All of our Transformers podcasts! show

Summary: Studio Series may be looking quite different next year.<br> <br> Thanks to <a href="https://www.tfw2005.com/boards/threads/studio-series-leader-grindor-and-ravage-and-86-deluxe-gnaw-and-rotf-sideswipe.1194700/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Jtprime</a> and <a href="https://www.tfw2005.com/boards/threads/studio-series-rotf-bumblebee-w-sam-and-studio-series-jolt-listings.1194695/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">grayman</a> on TFW2005, we have some new product entries from the Walmart app that have stirred some confusion and debate this week.<br> <br> Starting Wednesday with a listing for <a href="https://www.tfw2005.com/boards/threads/new-listing-for-studio-series-leader-%E2%80%9C86-grimlck-whe%E2%80%9D.1194580/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Studio Series Leader Class "Grimlock 86"</a> there came to be two distinct leading schools of thought: That this referred to an updated rerelease of the existing Studio Series Grimlock, or that it was the jumping off point for a run of Studio Series based on the original 1986 Transformers The Movie.<br> <br> Today's discovery of a Studio Series Deluxe 86 Gnaw seems to support the latter, surprisingly enough!<br> <br> But if you think Studio Series should only be for live action Transformers movies, you still may not be entirely out of luck, since listings were also found for four figures representing Revenge of The Fallen: Deluxes Bumblebee with Sam, Sideswipe, and Jolt, and Leader class Grindor with Ravage. Three of those four seem pretty obvious as mainly mold reuses, but at least it's not Skids and Mudflap.
