When is the Hasbro Transformers panel at NYCC 2026?
It is Thursday, October 8, from 7:15 to 8:00 PM ET in North-Room 406.1, and the show lists it as the Hasbro Toy Panel, Action Brands. That makes it the only Hasbro panel at the show that covers Transformers. The listing is a single line, saying the panel will bring the latest from Transformers alongside new additions to the G.I. Joe Classified Series, and it names no one on stage. A fan-site listing from late summer put a Hasbro action brands panel on Sunday at 11:00 AM; on the official schedule that slot belongs to the Hasbro Star Wars and Marvel panel, so Thursday night is the Transformers date.
What will Hasbro reveal at NYCC 2026?
Hasbro has published no reveal list for the panel. Two lines are on shelves now: Age of the Primes, the current Generations run, and Studio Series, where Awakening Bumblebee pre-orders opened in September. Anything from fan listing threads stays unconfirmed until Hasbro shows it in the room. Each reveal goes into the log at the bottom of this page with its source.
When are the Transformers comics panels at NYCC 2026?
There are two, both from Skybound: Skybound Comics: Vision for the Future on Friday, October 9, from 4:00 to 4:45 PM ET in North-Room 406.3, and Transformers & G.I. Joe: What’s Next for the Energon Universe? on Saturday, October 10, from 11:15 AM to 12:15 PM ET in North-Room 406.2. The Friday listing names Transformers, Invincible and Universal Monsters and promises a new slate, with Stephen Graham Jones, Leandro Fernandez and Tate Brombal among the guests. The Saturday session is the Energon Universe one, where Robert Kirkman and Jason Howard speak for Transformers and the creators of Void Rivals, M.A.S.K. and G.I. Joe share the stage. Our latest report on the book is the fifteenth printing of Transformers No. 1.
Is there a Transformers panel on Sunday at NYCC 2026?
No Transformers session is scheduled for Sunday. The Hasbro panel on Sunday, October 11, at 11:00 AM in North-Room 406.3 covers Star Wars and Marvel, specifically the Black Series, the Vintage Collection and Marvel Legends, and the last Transformers session ends at 12:15 PM on Saturday. Reveals from the Thursday to Saturday panels will be posted here.
