Transformers Siege Leaked Stock Photos For Optimus Prime & Megatron, Plus Battle Master Scans

Apparently it was too early to observe that the flow of leaks via Weibo had seemed to subside, as usual-suspect "tf-factory" has put out a few minor items in the last little while. We've got copies of the final stock images for Voyager wave 1, showing the packaging and robot and vehicle images for Optimus Prime and Megatron. This is not our first time seeing the Voyager packaging, as it had been displayed at Summer Wonderfest in Japan immediately after SDCC. We also have images of the covers for the Hasbro Asia variants of the instructions for wave 1 Battle Masters, which brought an interesting detail to light, especially when taken together with the Voyager packaging.

Adjacent to the nameplates for each individual toy is a new kind of insignia. It's hard to make out what exactly they might be representing, especially at this low resolution; whether they're stylized representations of weapons, or something even more abstract, we simply can't say. But the Battle Masters have a shared insignia for both Autobot-affiliated characters, while Blowpipe has one that's unique. Going even further, Optimus Prime and Megatron each sport such emblems, but ones that are fully distinct from the Battle Masters. So far we haven't noticed this subtle detail pop up in any of the promotional art assets, but if it is part of the overall design style and theme of this series, we should expect to find it more prominent as we come closer to the toys hitting retail - an event which is likely just a few weeks away at this point!
