    We never saw the robot mode of Movie Trypticon, he's just a city.

    Agreed! I loved the invasion scene in DotM!
    I hope it keeps going until every movie character is represented as an MPM. Actually, I hope they go beyond that and create MPM toys of characters that didn't even appear in the movies. I probably won't buy them all, but it would be fun to have the options and even just admire the toys from afar the way I do the G1 MPs.

    Well in the movie inferno is was made up of six guys, so you could just make the torso be made out of two deluxe sized ones. They could all look the same in robot mode and turn into different parts of the body.

    Not sure if I'm late but I'm really in hopes Studio Series makes the Wreckers, Dino/Mirage, Constructicons, Sideways and Sideswipe. PLEASE!!! :(

    I don’t think Hasbro will have enough budget to fit 2 combiners into one toyline. In that case they’ll have to choose between Devastator or Infernocus

    No news on Sideways, the Wreckers, and the Constructicons, but there were leaked Amazon listings for Díno and Sideswipe just before SDCC. I wouldn't hope for them until 2019, but they might be saving their reveal for NYCC. :) 

    They could make one Infernocon mold with a beast mode and make it capable of turning into an arm, a leg, and either half of the torso and have three per case, meaning if you ordered two cases of the wave it's in you'd have exactly enough Infernocons to form Infernocus. Of course it'd take genius engineering to be possible, but it could definitely happen if a Hasbro exec demands it loud enough.

    My budget-fit plan for Infernocus would go something like this:
    - make 4 Deluxe Infernocons that are identical in robot mode but turn into different Infernocus components, think of reverse-Dreads.
    - Infernocon #1 transforms into the head with no accessories, the engineering for the head alone justifies the price imo.
    - Infernocon #2 turn into the arms and comes with Infernocus’s guns. You need two of them.
    - Infernocon #3 turn into the legs and comes with a generic Infernocon weapon. You’ll also need two to complete Infernocus.
    - Infernocon #4 turns into the torso and comes with a mini-Quintessa for bonus value.

    I've noticed Starscream shelfwarming to an extent in two separate states in Australia too. Every store I go into has at least one Starscream and Crowbar remaining.

    Which is a shame because I think you could mount an argument for Screamer being the best figure in wave 1, and Crowbar is a nifty little toy too.

    In the two Smyths stores local to me in Wales, UK, the shelves are crammed with Starscreams and the odd Optimus. The deluxes have fared better but you can still find most of wave 1 easily. So I'm not buying Starscream until he's reduced but it also means I'm nervous about whether we're getting Ironhide...

    So they basically took the engineering upgrades Black Apple made and translated them to Tax Evasion Prime again like with SS Prime, but more streamlined this time? Neat. Wonder how he/she feels about that.

    EDIT: Looks like the feet are gray plastic painted blue again in an arbitrary attempt to homage G1 Prime even though the figure looks worse for it. :lol

    Maybe its Leader class? I think it is bigger than Voyager evasion.

    Leftside figure is Masterpiece Cheetor or something right? I heard its about voyager size.

    I actually hope it same size with evasion mode....

    Just recieved my Studio Series Optimus (WHAT A FIGURE!!) and while I was transforming him, for the one-hundred-and-something time, I realized how much better he would have looked like without the faux chest-piece and with his actual windshield instead.

    What do you think?

    (sorry for the bad pic btw)

    Okay, that's almost definitely Leader Class. Basically the size Wei Jiang should've made Commander. Hopefully he's 25cm, that's MPM Prime's height, right? I still don't want to switch from the ROTF Leader, but I hear he's like... a millimeter shorter than the MPM, so I hope they're going for MPM height.

    Now let's hope the UFO or Mr Bucket hands aren't too hard to jerry-rig onto this guy...
