I'll be more impressed if they release the Deluxe Metalhawk with the Primemaster suit + Titanmaster figure. Doubly so for the other Pretenders.

Now that I think about it Bludgeon was some remolded Hardhead in a recent Takara comic so this might happen and supposedly the American pretenders like Bludgeon/Octopunch are popular with the Jpn fandom. So maybe a bunch of Blurr remolds for the other pretenders with Hardhead for Skullgrin/Bludgeon and maybe Chromedome or Kup for Lander.

 

Takara will probably do that, unless Hasbro decided to make voyager-priced sets that include a remold/redeco of a TR toy packaged with a pretender shell decoy suit.

 

I think maybe I figured out the Protector armor foot slots.

Under Beast mode Abominus heads I see prongs and under Elitas Voyager Arms I see Prongs as well...possibly they can be underslung...

 

TBH, I'm totally fine with Elita being a Starscream remold, given that IDW Elita is pretty accurately represented (flatter chest, wider shoulders, slightly narrower hips.)

I'm just a bit worried about chunky arms tho, hoping the plates can be changed or painted over to slim the arms.

 

I'd forgotten about it.
We still haven't heard anything outside of the initial rumor, have we?

 

Not a rumor we've see the listing in Walgreen's computer system.

 

Technically it was an official listing. But yeah seems nothing so far.
Id expect a groove mold with a Wreckgar head. But I dunno if it stays as list only.

 

Everything I see pictured I'm shaking my head at and saying yes please. Then in my mind I'm going I'll take that and that and maybe a double on that lmao.

 

I heard about that he better be a good retool like Grotusque is like new everything like how they did Scourge , Highbrow and Windblade or Alpha Trion and Broadside in TR and not be just a crappy Reissue/Redeco like of the legends figure like TR Cosmos was or just a repaint of the 2010 figure with All his problems fixed. DARE TO BE STUPID!

"New to Junkion Planet is Sleek sexy import with turbo handling"

 

I would be fine with a new head, weapon and tiers.

 

I was thinking, what if he's a re-tool of the deluxe Groove mold, but I think it is just as likely to be the legends Wrek-Gar from Groove.

 

THIS IS NOT VECTOR PRIME!

 

its supposed to be a deluxe

 

Rumor: Walgreens Exclusive Deluxe Wreck-Gar? - Transformers News - TFW2005

 

Welcome to being a G1 fan from 1995 to 2005.

 

The minute I get my hands on this, I'll replace that Prime Master "Vector Prime" with Titan Master "Professor Go" to complete my Metalhawk package.  

 

Agree but I wonder will he be IDW version of vector prime? I have the original vector. He's still a great figure. The level of detail on him is great

 

It's his avatar. This Vector Prime


is still Vector Prime. The Primemaster is, essentially, a projection.

 

I always hoped for a sweep limb to combine 4 of those with Cyclonus. At least we got more then just hope when looking at him being listed. But since there is no big reveal I suspect we get just the bare minimum, a new head sculpt at best on a Groove body. But at least it is something. I am just wondering if we might get him with the new " hands?" or not.
And the same goes for the reused mold for Inferno. Do we get the new feet? That would make some difference. Also a reason to pick up Inferno. I don't want to combine him. But I have no inferno in my display. So I would use those Feet on maybe Defensor. While having Inferno in robot mode.

 

I actually want four Deluxe Cyclonus limbs.
