    Classic Rodimus 3 times
    Classic grimlock 3 times
    Classic bee/cliff 3 times
    Classic mirage 5 times
    universe prowl/streak 6 times
    universe side/streaker (6 that we know of)Wheeljack will probably be this mold.


    Technically there are 2 molds for the seekers.Starscream has had 8-10 and Skywarp has had 4-5.
