    This is plausible actually. It's an off-the-wall fan design, so that could explain the 'K' designation, and the 'ancest' part could refer to something primal or prehistoric - much like his alt-mode.

    Which sub line is this meant to fit in with? Is this beast wars or a comic line? I like it but not for a standalone.

    It reminds of the anime Big O for some reason. So the K line's previous release was Overwatch?

    Hopefully someone can answer your question. All i know, is that many awesome linearts, where they change into beast, but mechanical looking, not like actual animals as was the case for Beast Wars. I had seen the Optimus Primal (i dont know if that was DX-9 or whom), and then Sunson Son was wondering / guessing if this could be the Rodimus, which i love even more. I remember the company (so probably dx-9?) showed 2 shadows, one being Rodimus, the other one Sideswipe. Their artline looks very awesome, so i am wondering how this will turn out in toy form. I am no expert in the matter, just liked what i saw a while back (cant remember which convention)

    Generation Toy showed those, so if this is based on the same design then that's two kitty Roddys to choose from! :D

    hmm, so now i wonder if the guess is wrong and this is not that nice kitty Roddys, but let's wait and see.

    I can't place it, but wasn't that mentioned also in the older Marvel comics as a reason for Hot Rod/Rodimus' leadership capabilities (or something of the kind)?

    Look at the head. It's a Transformer alright.
    I was wondering if perhaps they'd do another Overwatch character who turns into a Transformer but that seems to make very little sense unless he turns from robot to robot or robot to human or whatever. Then again, I've only seen the Overwatch characters; I've never actually played the game, so I dunno.
    It's definitely a Hot Rod head. Orion Pax is a fair bit different. I suppose the better question would be to ask if it's actually meant to be Hot Rod, or if it's just (heavily) inspired by Hot Rod.
    This seems plausible but I'm not sure I want both GCreations and DX9 doing this...
    It's a doujin art book called T-Beast. You can learn more about it in all three of the related GCreations threads (as well as links to buy the books, or you can find them for free if you're a sad bad panda).
    I haven't read the Marvel comics yet but there's an early episode of G1 season 3 where he basically goes into the matrix to learn from the Primes who came before him. So there's that.

    Good gracious would that be lovely. Like the car that combines with the rest of Goldran, though the faces don't really match.
    Still, the idea of more 3rd Party Brave toys makes me tingly.

    Maybe it's one of the ancestral Autobots that held the Matrix in that Five Faces of Darkness episode.

    It looks like Prime is molesting Hot Rod (is that hot rod?) in that pic.

    I will be sorely disappointed if it turns out to not be Mayor McCheese

    I like to believe it's going to be a non transformer, but if it is I'm thinking this.
