Or a character that's just never had a toy before, like a prose only character probably because we've never "seen" them.
Death's Head immediately comes to mind, but there's very little chance they could get away with that, being owned by Marvel and all. We'll see, they've successfully made me excited for the reveal this week.
Devcon was actually my first thought but it seemed my newer understanding was a non transformer meaning i though character outside the series....but the prose only character makes about the same sense
Re-reading it, I think he could be talking about another Go-Bot. Or a Diaclone. Hmm... Taking this clue and putting it together with this clue really makes me start leaning toward another Go-Bot from the e-Hobby set. The 5th figure would therefore be either Bad Boy or Road Ranger (not Small Foot or Path Finder, since they were both females and the clue says "He's new") and the 7th incentive figure would be Treds, re-using the Warpath mold that Treadshot is already using. Prime RID Kup would probably work for Road Ranger.
Wasn't there news about a Death's Head figure coming to retail, anyway? Don't think this is one we even need the club to do....
Another Go-Bot Transformer seems the most logical. As for the other stuff, maybe we'll get some Arms Microns. That would be awesome.
That's what I thought too. And that would be awesome, But what would they use for him? And would he transform? (I kind of hope he wouldn't, but people would hate that.) I had to look him up. Cool pic on TFWiki and I could see him from either Blurr/Drift or Scourge (mainly due to the head). It says, "I hope people really dig all 6 figures and sign up for the full subscription because the bonus incentive 7th figure goes perfectly with another figure in the set!" and like almost everyone I agree that Eject "goes perfectly with" Rewind. Honestly, I'd prefer it wasn't Eject though… and upon re-reading your statement, yes, the 7th figure COULD go perfectly with a currently unknown reveal but it's hard to beat the perfectly of Rewind and Eject. I hope not, I hate those… but that's just me.
Yeah, he was supposed to show up in the 6" Marvel legends line, but there's been zero news on it. We'll see if it actually happens, I worry it could be cancelled. With the comments about the possibility of extra stuff coming with the unrevealed figure and "part of it" being established and popular, I kind of wonder if they're qualifying Power Core Combiners as deluxe class, maybe it's an established character that's also sort of a quasi "new combiner" with PPC limbs. It's probably not super likely, but PCCs are a big group of untouched molds that the club probably has access to. I for one would love to see Undertow get a G2 Manta Ray head and deco.
I could certainly think of a few GoBots that would be high enough on my want list that I might have to pull the trigger rather than cherry pick...but we'll see...
He was in the recent Iron Man book also. http://images3.wikia.nocookie.net/_...Head_(Earth-TRN234)_from_Iron_Man_Vol_5_9.jpg The Legends line would scale nicely with Deluxe/Voyager, especially if he was BAF (which admittedly would suck because we'd have to buy the whole series).
Odd that TFCC hasn't even updated their site with the Rewind reveal as yet… The Official Transformers Collectors' Club Guess Facebook has become the default, sadly.
Even if they could release Death's Head, he shouldn't transform. He's not a Transformer or even a Cybertronian. HOWEVER, because Death's Head is a Marvel character, I say that Detritus should be a stand-in - the same attitude, motivations and way of speaking as the Marvel character; only the name and appearance would be different.
Well, I don't know how the toy licensing works (I know Marvel has been being kind of prick to IDW on characters "they own"), but Hasbro does have Marvel AND TF toy rights and they've done the Marvel Crossovers TFs, so possibly no reason why Death's Head couldn't appear with (at least partial) TF branding. Doubt he will though. But if he shows up in the Marvel Legends line he will be bought and displayed with TFs by a lot of people I imagine, yes?
Seems you nailed it. I'll be selling mine most likely, not a fan of Arms Micron "figures". http://www.tfw2005.com/transformers-news/conventions-15/tfcc-tfss-20-micron-3-pack-reveal-178376/
no ones saying you can't have your viewpoint, but when you're telling others their opinion on their collection is wrong, thats where an issue starts. and some of your facts were just wrong, hence the correction. you monster... PCC is definitely a possibility, but considering how much of the fandom dislikes that line, i could see the club staying away. Maybe Rewind is the 7th figure after all? they never said they wouldn't reveal the 7th figure. I would.
What if.... The unproduced Marvel Death's Head figure is coming from the club? Not likely, but not impossible.
that'd be awesome! i wish we could get more TF human/alien characters in the MU or GIJoe line. I want everyone! Circuit Breaker, Spike, Daniel, Sparkplug, Carly! Hell, i'd even buy live action movie humans in that scale.
