I'm gonna guess that for Liokaiser, the limbs are going to be the same base molds as they were for the Hasbro release, so 2 Air Raids/Skydives, and 2 Brawls. I assume the tanks will get some pretty heavy retooling in order to be more distinct from each other, and that the jets will both use Air Raid's wings in order to be swept up in combined mode, to be reminiscent of Liokaiser's silhouette. I mean, the heads already exist, and I have to assume Takara had a part in that.
Might wanna reread my post. Already covered that. Chromia can easily be done and I'm sure there are other femmes besides Arcee they can bring out and remold from an existing figure.
Also, I bet the Dinobot combiner is sold retail. Even though it's weird that they're a combiner, the Dinobots are just too important. And it's gonna be bad enough that the people that want blue Swoop will likely have to buy a giftset (glad I like red Swoop!)
If united warriors does make a come back i couldnt see them doing more then 5 sets. Predaking, abominus and something with the dinobots is pretty much guaranteed so that would leave 2 left. While Takara dosnt seam to mind making one new figure for a set or doing a few retools they dont seam committed to making there own combiners or investing too much on any one set. I wouldnt expect much help from Hasbro with new figures in future waves either. The leaks showed us 4 waves of deluxe figures and 3 waves of voyager figures. I would think that means there will only be one more wave of deluxe figures and two more waves of voyager figures. A total of 5 waves. Considering the amount of repacking going on, it would mean only 3-5 more deluxe figures and only 2-3 more voyagers in future waves and those could be retools of sfuff we have already seen. So, what i saying is not enough time/waves to see a proper seacons Liekizer or raiden and the last two set would be most likely based on some theme we have already seen with a Takara tweek.
They've revealed three Deluxes and they're all limbs. Starscream has CW ports. At least two of the additional leaked voyagers are also combiners (Hungurr and Inferno from CW Hot Spot). A fourth, Elita-1 is a Starscream retool. The Titan class figure is Predaking. At this point anything Deluxe or Voyager that *isn't* a Combiner would be the exception, not the rule.
We have yet to see the remaining G1 femmes. Lancer and Greenlight be made into POTP toys so really all we need is those two and Elita's team will be complete.
I really hope they don't do any seeker limbs sin e then you would have Screamer as Voyager and then the limb Seekers as delux. I am just OCD enough that that would drive me nuts. Seekers should all be the same class.
I'm hoping for the three main Seekers as voyagers (either from Hasbro or Takara) and then a collection of "lesser" Seekers as limbs
Yikes. That'd be overkill from Takara let alone Hasbro. We're more likely to see a King Starscream from Takara that uses the Thrust and Starscream limb molds. Kinda hoping Takara lets something out soonish because I may skip some of the US stuff if it all gets Takara boxed sets. Costs may be a bit higher, but i won't have to worry about tracking down limbs from Japan later while cursing Hasbro for their awful case assortments leading to huge markups online.
Just to be clear, I'm hoping for something like Starscream and Skywarp come out single packed, then Thundercracker comes out in a box set of four lesser seekers (e.g. Red Wing, Ion Storm, Nova Storm, Acid Storm). I don't think that'll happen, of course, but it'd be fun.
