Hasbro's Studio Series is getting a shot of 80s adrenaline with the two newest additions to the impressive toyline, and fans of Transformers: The Movie are about to lose their minds. That's because the Studio Series line is expanding to include two fan favorites from the iconic animated film, and we can exclusively reveal those new additions to be Jazz and Hot Rod. Not only that, but you can get your first look at the Autobots starting on the next slide, and as you can see with just one glance, the designers are clearly fans of the film.
This is the first time the characters from Transformers: The Movie are making their way to the Studio Series line, and it's perfectly timed to the film's 35th anniversary. Each figure features accessories to recreate scenes from the film, including Hot Rod holding the Matrix above his head, and each figure will also feature unique 86 numbering so that you can collect just the movie characters and have a complete collection if you so choose.
Transformers fans have even more to look forward to later this week during Hasbro Pulse Fan First Friday, but in the meantime, you can check out all the details on both figures below. UPDATE: Pre-orders for all of the new Fan First Friday Studio Series figures can be found here.
