Upcoming Transformers Toys 2008

Today, Hasbro held a panel at Comic-Con to unveil its new product from their very successful Transformers toy line. Attendees were treated and teased with photos of the new toys about to hit shelves and when those toys would arrive. Attendees had to stop themselves from drooling over the new characters and toy molds.

Expect to see new product from the hit cartoon series Transformers Animated starting this September. The first toy revealed was Deluxe Class Sentinel Prime, the arrogant and condescending Prime ranked officer who hates the main hero Optimus Prime.

Sentinel's vehicle mode resembles a snow plow and features a shield and lance for his robot mode. Other Deluxe Class toys of the September wave are Swoop and Elite Guard Bumblebee.

Swoop is the third of the Dinobots and transforms into a pterodactyl. He carries a large chained mace in robot mode. Elite Guard Bumblebee is a repaint of the Deluxe Class Bumblebee currently on store shelves. But instead of a yellow mini car, Elite Guard Bumblebee is a black mini car.

And the most anticipated toy coming in September is Leader Class Ultra Magnus. As leader of the Elite Guard, Ultra Magnus is a large robot with electronic lights and sounds. His vehicle mode is some sort of an artillery truck.
