    I've never seen anything from Siege in the wild. Honestly I'm hoping to see a Firestar.

    I’m wondering maybe that the new leader Optimus prime will be an update to RID’01
    Prime with maybe some repaints of the deluxe being used for the autobot brothers. I’d really love an x-brawn from either hound or ironhide

    I think Siege should hit stores soon, if it hasn't already. I haven't been to my local Walmart or Target in about two weeks, so I can't say speak for my area.
    If you're talking about the Novastar (renamed Firestar; read: copyright) figure from Power of the Primes, she's already hit retail. I've seen her in the wild at Walmart almost every week in my area.
    We're probably getting a blue one. If not, then it'll be in Sunbow colors for sure.

    I saw Siege Battlemasters at my Target a couple days ago.

    Hasbro's distribution in my area is beyond pathetic, I can't speak for the entire east coast, but I've heard that the west coast is the only place that receives decent distribution. I'm unlikely to ever see a Firestar/Novastar.

    I have no idea what your location is, but CT had plenty of Novastar at Walmart and Target.

    What I'm hoping for with Smashdown, apparently being a melee hammer weapon, is that it comes with an effects part that fits over most of the fists of the larger figures. Maybe it's a long shot, but so far, the effects parts can fit on the larger figures(and Micromasters) in some way. I mean, what else would an effects part for a hammer be compatible with?

    I live in Florida. I've never seen a Siege figure or a Novastar in this area, and I actually travel around the state a good deal.

    That's a good idea, I've been trying to think of what the effects part would look like for a hammer. Heck, I'm still trying to guess how a bot that turns into a hammer is going to look. I do hope he comes in red, white, and blue, to match Magnus.

    It's the same story in my bit of the West Coast. I outright haven't seen entire waves over the last few years.

    Even though there is a fan vote now for the next G1 Reissue. Do you think there should be another fan vote for the second part of War for Cybertron?

    I hope so, tbh i dont know why they even had the g1 vote in the first place when the 4 candidates could have just made up a whole wave on their own and then had a vote for wfc part 2

    I just thought Skywarp and Thundercracker were a bit of a waste. because they already got Starscream, plus that vote you are basically voting for the same figure.

    But I am hoping for something good for the Fan vote of part 2.

    One question,

    If they made a Omega Supreme, would you want it to hold any Deluxe or voyager figure or 2? Just like a figure and ship.

    That would be the only reason I would get it.

    I wonder if they're going to release a voyager sized Rodimus Prime.
    Not a Hot Rod-RP hybrid or mish mash.
