	:Next they discussed the ''[[Transformers: Robots in Disguise (2015 toyline)\|Robots in Disguise]]'' combiners, which were designed from the get-go to ensure kids got a complete combiner with every single purchase. The design process actually started with sketching the combined robot modes, melding the components' design cues and blending them together, then refining those looks with the show production crew. There were multiple mechanical issues to work out: they wanted an emphasis on "big action" and interchangeability. They had to design a new universal joint to make that work (forgiving of course some toys only changing into certain combiner parts), as well as where one holds the toy when combining, to avoid auto-transforming parts pinching unwary fingers. Sean, the Senior Designer for ''Robots in Disguise'', elaborated on his love of jet-robots and his desire to add to their ranks with the all-new character [[Stormshot]], even if he wasn't a combiner.		:Next they discussed the ''[[Transformers: Robots in Disguise (2015 toyline)\|Robots in Disguise]]'' combiners, which were designed from the get-go to ensure kids got a complete combiner with every single purchase.

	:Then it was ''[[Power of the Primes (toyline)\|Power of the Primes]]'', which was largely a new product reveal, focusing primarily on the new [[Dinobot (G1)#Power of the Primes\|Dinobots]]. A number of small but important details got revealed here, including Slash being a female Dinobot, and the group's use of clear plastic with gold-painted inner walls to simulate the original toys' distinct clear-plastic-over-vac-metal look. The Dinobots were also revealed as combiners, forming [[Volcanicus (POTP)#Toys\|Volcanicus]]. They noted some improvements over the ''[[Combiner Wars (toyline)\|Combiner Wars]]'' combiners, with a big priority of hiding the combiner joints in robot mode, plus the new combiner foot-parts would include rocker-ankle joints of the kind found on [[Victorion#Toys\|Victorion]].		:Then it was ''[[Power of the Primes (toyline)\|Power of the Primes]]'', which was largely a new product reveal, focusing primarily on the new [[Dinobot (G1)#Power of the Primes\|Dinobots]].

	:Next came the Leader-class figures, with the reveal of the new [[Optimus Prime (G1)/toys#Power of the Primes\|Leader-class Orion Pax/Optimus Prime]] toy! The truck cab becomes the first Orion Pax toy sculpted to resemble the original [[Floro Dery]] animation model, and forms the core of the larger Optimus Prime toy, whose very ''[[The Transformers: Masterpiece\|Masterpiece]]''-like body is made up from the trailer unit. These designs required some trickery to get the weight balances and silhouettes right, which results in Optimus having an "outer" window-chest that opens to reveal an "inner" window-chest which opens to reveal a socket for the [[Matrix of Leadership\|Matrix]] accessory. Speaking of silhouettes, the section ended with a silhouette "teaser" for [[Predaking (G1)#Power of the Primes\|Predaking]], to be "properly" revealed at [[Toy Fair]].		:Next came the Leader-class figures, with the reveal of the new [[Optimus Prime (G1)/toys#Power of the Primes\|Leader-class Orion Pax/Optimus Prime]] toy!

	:Isabela ~~Moner~~ was brought out, and talked about her experiences on the set. She sent in her audition tape somewhat late in casting, and was almost immediately picked over the production team's then-current top contender out of a field of over 50 actresses. She really wanted the role and felt that her being so physically small but playing such a tough, determined character would be inspirational to kids. And there was plenty of gushing over [[Anthony Hopkins]].

	:And then Wahlberg came out and the crowd went ''ballistic''.

	:Hasbro and [[TakaraTomy]] employees discussed their work on the various ''Transformers'' toylines of 2016, with a look into 2017. Began with talking about the technical issues of designing two ''[[Transformers: The Last Knight (toyline)\|The Last Knight]]'' sublines; the [[AllSpark Tech]] series and Knight Armor [[Turbo ~~Changer~~]]s. With AllSpark Tech, the physical space needs of the activation cube had to be accounted for, plus ''every'' phrase and sound effect for ''every'' toy had to be plotted out for each motion, as the whole point of the line was that a single cube will work with every figure. The Knight Armor helmets needed to be impressive reveals, with the helmets matching the characters' aesthetics; [[Megatron (Movie)\|Megatron]]'s was meant to evoke a necromancer, while [[Hound (Movie)\|Hound]]'s blended the medieval with military.		:Hasbro and [[TakaraTomy]] employees discussed their work on the various ''Transformers'' toylines of 2016, with a look into 2017.
