'Beast Wars' Figures Return for Final 'Transformers: War for Cybertron: Kingdom' Installment
“Maximals, maximize!”
After being officially revealed at the virtual Hascon event, Hasbro has now opened up pre-orders for the final installment of the Transformers: War for Cybertron figure series. Dubbed “Kingdom,” the third line fittingly returns to the animal kingdom with a look back at the late ’90s spin-off Beast Wars: Transformers.
Despite being a polarizing series when it first released, the CG-animated series was ultimately regarded for its prehistoric Earth theme which saw the Autobots become the Maximals and Decepticons become the Predacons. Set to officially arrive January 2021, the Kingdom line marks the 25th-anniversary of Beast Wars with re-editions of the core class of characters. Leading the set is Optimus Primal and his mortal enemy Megatron who are brought back as accurate representations of the original ’90s releases but with updated packaging. Accompanying the leaders are Cheetor, Rattrap and Blackarachnia who also arrive in amazing bestial forms that continue to express the standout beast to robot creations of the Transformers series.
Head over to Hasbro Pulse to pre-order the Transformers: War for Cybertron: Kingdom figure series now.
In case you missed it, Marvel and Epic Games develop a line of original artwork for their Fortnite merch collaboration.
