    I think that it is inevitable that Brut and Sup get redone, eventually. But there are so much more bigger and better projects that need to be addressed by the 3rd parties first!

    As for this poll, is it what we are hoping is the next TFC offering? Or what we think TFC is actually going to drop next, after hearing their vague, blanket statement, clues?

    I think it will be SG Herc, but I hope to god it is Predaking... and even more I wish it to be Omega Supreme, even though it is beyond unlikely.

    I voted for Computron, though I think Superion could fit as well. Both characters have an odd man/men out, but I think Computron has more red/white on it than Superion, which has has Skydive and Air Raid who, well, mess things up. Nosecone, if I'm not mistaken, is the only member that messes things up for Computron, but would it be much of a stretch to change his brown to burgundy?

    Didn't TFC pass word to this board and others about wanting fan feedback on the Autobot combiner we as fans would like to see? Seems they mentioned that about the time the last figures from Herc began arriving to us. Not saying they are or are not planning on a SG Hercules at some point, but it seems more likely that we will see an Autobot combiner from a design standpoint over the next 6 months or so.

    Wish they would clarify their Facebook comments on their page. Oh well, in any event, my wallet can fully recover before the next big project becomes available for purchase. Especially after preordering Giant :D

    i was wondering that too...i voted thinking it was which would you prefer, then realized after that it might be, what do you THINK it is...hmmm

    i'm betting you cracked the code...seriously...

    they might as well have said, "all members have knee joints"

    Cos they said they meant all have red not all have white, white may not be on any of them.

    Superion I agree with. He's honestly about the only Autobot combiner I care about anyway and the current version is.. not good. Bruticus I don't need a "ground up" re-imagining of.. Crossfire Onslaught/Brawl/Vortex would be just fine.

    Not saying these would be my first choices for a soon-to-come project, but I certainly wouldn't throw a shitfit like some people seem to want to. In fact, if they were good, I'd buy them and go "neato!"

    llooks liek theyre going from set of autobot or decepticon sub team to the next based on the 80's cartoon time line

    think about it for a second

    the dinobots and then the constructicons came out as sub group teams in season 1 followed by the insectiocns over time as well then the airealbots and the stunticons then after them the protectobots and combaticons side per side over time

    wouldnbt be surprised if their next current one for this year isa shattered glass herculese set as it would make sense repaint wise.

    odds are the next all new combiner set will be the airealbots though

    The more I think about it and now that the new color is red not white, I KNOW what team/combinder they are hinting at.



















    Wait for it....





























































































    THE DINOBOTS.

    We have seen the prototypes already.

    I'm not impressed, give me Omega Supreme.

    In other words, they're complete idiots that don't know the difference between red and white? I don't get why some people actually think that was a mistake...

    Oh I see it now.

    I hope it's Computron with cartoon colors then. Or Predaking, since he actually works as a big combiner compared to the FP/Maketoy ones.

    Cos english isn't there first language, I know I speak some french but I'm honestly not sure I could remember the correct translation for every color and english is really not an easy language so yeah i totally by it was a mistake until they say other wise.

    Actually I'll quote there face book page here:

    Oh dude I got mistaked :-/
    Next project isn't all members in white,

    It should be all have RED colour.

    Sorry change it :) 


    So maybe lets just forget about the whole white thing then.

    A lot of wishful thinkers here thinking the white to red thing was a real mistake.

    Optibotimus confirmed that it is SG Devi. Dream all you want but that is their next release.
