Cult Favorite Monsterbot Fangry Returns to Transformers: Age of the Primes – With a Catch
Hold up, Transformers fans: Hasbro is diving deep into the stranger corners of Cybertronian lore, unearthing a true cult-favorite. Fangry, the monstrous winged wolf Decepticon from the classic Headmasters era, is getting a Deluxe Class modern release in the Age of the Primes collection.
This isn't your standard G1 Autobot. Fangry stands out with a striking pink deco and transforms from robot to a savage, bat-like monster in 20 steps. Collectors know Monsterbots are a rare sight in Hasbro's current lineup, making Fangry's comeback significant. Plus, his Headmaster partner Brisko is along for the ride, transforming into Fangry's head.
The Age of the Primes line celebrates the epic legacy of The Thirteen Primes, connecting nearly every corner of Transformers lore. Fangry’s inclusion here highlights Hasbro’s commitment to deep cuts. Pre-orders are live on Hasbro Pulse for $27.99. But mark your calendars for a surprisingly distant December 2026 release date. That's a long wait for a monster this cool.

Catzye Take
That December 2026 release date is a real gut-punch for eager collectors! What's interesting is Hasbro's continued push into these deeper, more niche corners of Transformers lore. It signals a dedication to hardcore fans. Hopefully, this means we'll see more obscure bots from the Headmasters or even Masterforce era soon.
