    Didn't that guy just say it was confirmed High Tide part of the cast?

    I mean come on 3 seasons and no new additions on the show?

    I would assume pictures were not allowed at TF UK.

    You were warned on like the very first page of this thread to expect little to nothing to be revealed from this Investors only, NDA signatures required event.

    Luckily for you, there was another event held in Hong Kong where lips were a little looser.

    How is it Masterpiece if its G2 Megatron repainted as G1 Megatron? Sideswipe at least kept the same mold for G2.

    I'm aware of that. But it doesn't really give us any details on Devastator. But it did show some hints for MP.

    MP hints seemed out of left field. Hasbro is at the event, not Takara right?

    Well, sorry about that. Guess you'll just have to be patient and wait for more news like the rest of us.

    Ignorance is bliss in these cases.

    I'd much rather have the OMG moments like when Metroplex came out of nowhere etc.

    Regarding the much rumored Devastator we need to relinquish words like: simple, simplified, simplification etc or at least re-calibrate our understanding in Transformers terms.

    For example, Combiner Wars Silverbolt isn't a simple toy. The Transformation is intuitive, it can be completed quickly but it isn't simple.

    Hasbro does often know what TakaraTomy is working on when it comes to TF, even if they aren't participating.

    I think the right term is "balanced".

    With Silverbolt, Hasbro really struck the right balance between fun, intuitive and complexity.

    True, but I wouldn't expect the specific Hasbro reps at a Toy Fair to both know what TakaraTomy have in the plans and reveal said plans. Besides, while it was a part of the same article on Seibertron, the stuff about possible future Masterpieces had nothing to do with the news coming from Toy Fair.
