    The Legend Class line up is impressive! The duocons, if they each have individual robot mode for each parts while still being able to combine into a larger robot will have an awesome play value.

    So, we've pretty much seen all of POTP through leaks, right?

    Almost all that we know about.

    There's more to come, only 8 of the 12 Primes have been done as Primemasters. So two more waves there and you assume at least 2 more waves of everything else.

    We know there's Waverider retool of Cloudburst because that would have been the Grnd Pretender shell

    (not my image)

    Hasbro used the wrong name. There own computer lists Metalhawk as Finback!

    PotP Finback possibly discovered?

    Five deluxes in wave 2 versus three in wave 3? Seems unbalanced and doesn't make sense in waves of combiner limbs where four has almost always been the logical choice. Also a bit surprised they would toss Tailgate into wave 2 when Windcharger might still be hanging around, better to go ahead and get Outback out first (assuming he just has a new head), since it has been a while since Brawn was released (even though there are a few Brawns still hanging around).

    Any hope that Battle and Speedtrap Doucons are also combiner limbs for Starscream?

    Darkwing and Dreadwind are like reverse Duocons and they're limbs, sooo...

    Octopunch should be Quintas Prime (because of the tentacles) and Bludgeon should be Solus Prime (because of the sword).

    Jazz is repacked in Wave 3.

    Similarly two of the Wave 2 deluxe, presumably the short packed ones, come back in Wave 4. See my post above! New Power of the Primes waves listed at Toys"R"Us

    Other known repacks include Metalhawk & Skullgrin in Primemaster Wave 2, Grimlock in Voyager Wave 3, Optimus in Leader Wave 2 and Rodimus Prime in Leader Wave 3.

    We've seen all of 2018's POTP product via leaks, but the line will be continuing on for at least half of 2019.

    The trademark-friendly new name for Firestar, retooled from Moonracer.

    *sees Outback confirmed*

    *checks another minibot off of the list*

    So at this point, we’re just waiting for Hubcap to complete the G1 Minibots? (as well as hoping for a better Cliffjumper and Huffer/Pipes?)

    And it still is listed as such, according to my source. Hasbro bats around names, designs, stuff like that, and then will change them by fail to send the new info to stores. Its how we get the odd and weird names that in the end don't match the toy.

    I believe it's the G1 Female Autobot Firestar, who has been renamed. But If I am wrong, someone please correct me.

    Firestar. Renamed due to trademarks.
