NAME: Optimus Prime ALLEGIANCE: Autobot ALTERNATE MODE: Western Star truck cab CLASS: Leader SERIES: M4: #001 CO-SELLS: Grimlock COMES WITH: Sword of Judgment, Vector Shield OPTIMUS PRIME has long believed that freedom is the right of all sentient beings. He has never wavered from his belief, no matter what has befallen him in battle. Once again ready to defend the people of his adopted planet, the unyielding AUTOBOT Commander prepares for the battle that will allow the AUTOBOTS to reclaim their role as Earth’s honored protectors. It wouldn’t be a Transformers movie without Optimus Prime leading the Autobots. Optimus gets another makeover in

NAME: Grimlock ALLEGIANCE: Autobot ALTERNATE MODE: T-Rex CLASS: Voyager SERIES: M4: #002 CO-SELLS: Optimus Prime (Evasion Mode) GRIMLOCK is the ultimate wildcard. The DINOBOT leader has the power to decide the fate of Earth almost singlehandedley. His ferocious strength makes him a devasating force in battle. If that strength can be focused and harnessed for good, it could be enough to turn the tide. If not, it could be what seals Earth’s doom. Fans have been calling for his inclusion ever since the first movie was announced. “We want Grimlock!” they shouted, loudly and repeatedly. Supposedly those same fans were told that

NAME: Dinobot Slug ALLEGIANCE: Autobot ALTERNATE MODE: Triceratops CLASS: Deluxe SERIES: M4: #003 CO-SELLS: Bumblebee, Crosshairs, Scorn This fiery warrior hates taking orders, unless it means he gets to destroy something. He’ll level anything in his path with a fit of white-hot dino rage. Ah, poor Slag — got caught in the vortex of Trademark Loss. But since this isn’t the Generation 1 character, having a new name isn’t such a bad thing. (Never mind the fact we’re getting a G1-decoed minicon Slug at some point….) The Dinobots in the new film are unlike the Dinobots of old. No longer

NAME: Autobot Drift ALLEGIANCE: Autobot ALTERNATE MODE: Bugatti Veyron Grand Vitesse CLASS: Deluxe SERIES: M4: #006 CO-SELLS: Strafe, Dinobot Slash AUTOBOT DRIFT used to fight for the DECEPTICONS. Now, he wields his swords against them, alongside the heroic AUTOBOTS! When I first saw Drift at Toy Fair 2014, I was unimpressed. Part of it was my lack of affinity for the Generation 1 new character that was introduced a few years ago. Part of it was his goofy head design. After getting the toy and playing around with it for a while, I admit it – my opinion’s changed. This
