    It would be logical. Starscream has dreadwind and Darkwing , Elita has Moonracer and nova Star, and inferno only has jazz for now...

    Now that it is easier to get, I really am tempted to get that Nemesis Prime, even if it is more expensive. I prefer sure things.

    That Wreck Gar really isn't doing anything for me. The new head is definitely nice.. but it completes Elita-1 if you go all autobots.

    Mmm nemesis prime

    now if only sideways could be a redeco of this wreckgar or nautica with the two masks for titans return

    we need 100% more sideways he\'s been afk since the unicron trilogy 

    also why did he have a different voice in cybertron when his armada va was like 3 characters in cybertron except for sideways?

    I'm passing on both of these.

    I'd have preferred a couple more Fembots instead of that Wreck-Garr repaint. There's barely anything consistant about this line, so why make an Inferno a combiner torso of a already tired mold for that matter? And I'm still content with the Nemesis Prime repaint of Classics OP.

    Now a remold/repaint of TR Galvatron would've been nice. The Character being Straxus/Darkmount since we never got anything else out of the mold and Straxus would be perfect as long as there's no more stupid pop up mask like Galvatron's (which I had to mode to make presentable).

    More fem-bots and a Voyager class Straxus at retail would sell better than both of these figures in question, plus who needed another remold of Hotspot?

    So You want a retool of a voyager from titans return in power of the primes where gimmick for voyager class is being the torso to combiners.

    Some people will never be happy or apply logic to things they want. As for who needed/wanted another hot spot redeco/retool? I did to complete my autobot headmaster jrs and turning Asia kids day hot spot into a proper inferno

    Other than the Terrorcons and Dinobots, none of the other combiner deluxes belong to anybody in PotP.

    Again, if they never retool this Optimus mold into a new PMOP (yes I know we just had one) I'll eat my Gnaw figure.

    Don\'t pay 35 for something that will be at Walgreens for 17. This is the potp equivalent to brainstorm.

    True, but I think he was put here just like drag strip was part of ultra prime or silverbolt/ superion art in combiner wars, it was not released in the same wave.
    Wreck gar is not part of Elita as she seems to have a second « jazz « limb on the artwork.

    With wreck gar and probably punch, we can at least complete an Autobot combiner....
    Or the decepticon combiner with counterpunch and blastoff, maybe that is why we don t see limbs on starscream artwork, but that is another story.

    Would be great by hasbro to acknowledge the limbs with each combiners...

    While both Drag Strip and Airraid were released in separate waves from their teammates, their packaging still identified them as a component of the correct combiner.

    [​IMG][​IMG]

    This is the same as how the Dinobots and Terrorcons were split across waves but still correctly identified as components of Abominus on their side-art.

    As it stands:
    - Dreadwind and Blackwing use Starscream's.
    - Jazz and Moonracer feature Elita-1's combiner art.
    - We haven't seen Nova Star and Wreck-Gar's side-art.
    - No one at this time uses Inferno's combiner art.
    - Blast-Off references the Combaticons.
    - We haven't seen P/CP's packaging.

    With stuff like Betatron, Galvatronus, and Ultra Prime we had both the back of the box but also the side-art to show us who the combined mode was. Meanwhile there wasn't a single deluxe that included their art, with Viper being the only figure to reference Galvatronus. These voyagers don't have that.

    So as far as we know, based on the info we've got, Elita-1 has two confirmed components and possibly a third while Inferno doesn't have any.

    Just preordered unicron of light from BBTS
    thanks to the lovely autobro that mentioned unicron\'s there, 200 is steap but it\'s a remake of a rare prize and homage to armada which is my 2nd favorite Series ( 1st for sideways and the story)

    prime wins out in characters and everything else ( sucks sideways didn\'t get a prime version)

    The only good one I can think of is the onslaught/hotspot mold. If you want to break the land vehicle team I think that scattershot would actually be pretty good.
