EDIT: Nevermind. The fact that the bombs always go face makes this very reliable, and 8 face damage for 7 mana is nothing to sneeze at. I feel like this card will work out.
Already mentioned earlier in this thread but worth repeating: this is two card reveals in one since the "Goblin Bomb" token has a rarity gem and is shown being played from hand in the release video!
Love that the opponent will have to decide if they want to clear the tokens to prevent magnetic buffs or save themselves the face damage and leave them up. Cool card that I think will be solid in a midrange mech hunter build.
hunter is not the class for combo card especially late game! Change my mind!
in standard, i can't, i would run this as a fun card in a midrange deck (or as an highest cost card in agro) because of the 8 damage just for clear, in wild, this has a lot of potential with Feign Death and Baron Rivendare, that i would like to try too, if i had the Feign Death xd

This is a midrange pressure card, not a combo card.
All the tokens are either 1) free bodies for magnetic buffs OR 2) board clear protection. I'm not saying you wouldn't want to combo this guy, but I think that is a bit like calling Grommash a "combo card" when he is really just a finisher that can be procced for extra damage.
This is literally unplayable I don't understand the hype around this card at all.A 7 mana 5/5 is awful and the Goblin Bomb doesn't do anything on its own and just takes up board space but even with Void Ripper it's 10 mana 8/8 deal 8 damage to the opponent while you could play King Krush which 9 mana 8/8 most of the time deal 8 damage to the opponent and King Krush is not played at all and you need 2 cards for that combo while King Krush is only one card. Voted Dust it.

So pretty much a worse dr. boom then?

Seems like it would work well with magnetic and cyberteck chips.
Let's Play Minesweeper! Hunter edition!
Edit: the bombs are mechs, some magnetic shenanigans maybe, unlikely, but there is the option
Edit 2: wait a second those tokens have rarity!, the "Goblin Bomb" is another card by itself! (i guess xD)
Edit 3: Yes, looking the video i can see the Goblin Bomb in the hand as a Standalone Card. we had a Double card reveal apparently xd
Edit 4: We have a confirmation from the non-chiken Peter guys the Goblin Bomb it's a collectable card

Boom goes.... your face. This has Magnetic synergy written all over it.
Also you can combo this with Feign Death
Thinking of odd hunter with this and Stormwind Champion
magnetic shenanigans with this seeing as the bombs are mechs, I actually quite like this card.
Rumors are carried by haters, spread by fools, and accepted by idiots.
Seems alright... not bad for 7 mana... plenty of room for combo shenanigans. It could be better once we see the rest of the hunter cards.
I think this card needs a lot of support to make it really good.
So far, it is just not a good standalone legendary.
Fantastic entrance animation.
hey! the Auctionmaster Beardo's entry theme! that's cool!
hunter is not the class for combo card especially late game!
Change my mind!
I'm a realist!
omfg that's dope

One thing not being mentioned is the AoE protection this card provides when playing this as a followup to a solid board state.

Should the bomb have its own discussion since it is a stand alone card?

This card is going to need a lot to be viable. No, void ripper isn’t good.
