This morning brought us previews via IGN for what we can expect to see from Transformers Earthrise during New York Toy Fair this weekend! The newest debuts are Deluxe Arcee, and Fasttrack, along with finally good looks at Commander class Sky Lynx, and Titan Scorponok.
As indicated by the Amazon listing recently, Arcee does indeed have a removable large-chunk-of-the-alt-mode, and while it's not entirely clear from the provided images, it's still my opinion partsforming will be optional. Fasttrack helps to complete Titan Scorponok, and Sky Lynx has the cat component confirmed to exist, even though everyone was already pretty sure that would be the case.
Things are looking pretty good with these first few early peeks, and we're sure to see even more this weekend. Stay tuned for ongoing coverage!
Some thoughts:
Megatron: missed opportunity! He is siege Megs with new parts, color placement, tooling, and head. I was hoping for a different alt mode at least; jet maybe or homage to Armada/Energon. Too bad. If his articulation was better than siege, I would upgrade.
Doubledealer: a little hollow on the legs but nice overall. I am glad they seem to be steering away from a blitzwing pre-mold; not sure if we'll get WFC blitzwing now.
All the base mode bots look swell and I dig the two headed battlemaster; the battlemasters are awesome for the effects parts alone.
Scorponok, I really wanted to pass on him because I don't have space for titans but he looks so good! Can't wait to see more pics of all of these.
I hope earthrise brings us forward in transformers; the decrease in articulation on some of these is a bit of a let-down
This morning we've got even more looks at upcoming Transformers reveals for Toy Fair 2020, straight from Hasbro's own media resources website. Seen here for the first time are the new Earthrise versions of Deluxe Smokescreen, Voyager Megatron, Modulator Airwave, Micromaster Astro Squad, Race Track Patrol, and Battlemaster Doublecrosser.

That Sky Lynx base mode is great!
Yeah that base mode looks real good. Super excited to get Scorponok and have him displayed next to Omega.
I'm in on all of these.
Sky Lynx looks AMAZING
