    Well it would certainly make sense for them to put some distance between a hypothetical iGear Powerglide (Ultraslide!) release and the "winter of powerglide" where like three or four companies all released mostly crappy versions of the guy (Plus hasbro with two decos of the DOTM Cyberverse figure). It definitely makes sense to first put out the guys who haven't had figures recently to maximize their sales potential.

    Still we don't necessarily know that he's last, we just know he's no earlier than ninth. There's all kinds of minibots and redecos they could do.

    ^ Not sure iGear ever showed a silhouette for Warpath like they did with the other minibots. I love Generations Warpath and he's awesome, even if he is on the big side (full Deluxe figure) compared to iGear's MW line (got mine crouching down a bit holding a bazooka from the PP05 accessories). If iGear decided to make a new Warpath I wouldn't be against the idea.

    Yup. Give us Bee, Cliff and Windcharger. Maybe if iGear stops making MPs they could make minibots at a faster pace.

    The more I look at Beachcomber the more I like it...sort of. Those legs are a disaster, I doubt I'll ever warm up to that aspect...but it looks Scout sized overall and appears to have pretty good articulation so that's automatically better than the Legends version. I'd still like to see comparison pics of all these guys in robot mode next to each other.

    They stopped making the Seekers ages ago.

    Worth noting, for those wanting other figs not mentioned, that Gears wasn't on the original silhouette list IIRC so things can change with enough fan comments.

    Upsize Huffer.......please!!!!!

    Actually, it was stated a long time ago that the silhouttes were just a basic guideline and not all of them would be coming out. I think.

    I agree. I was interested in the Swerve remold, but I don't want him to be as tall as Classics Bumblebee. He should be tiny, like in MTMTE!!!!

    I feel that the production of the Van bros. slowed down the release of Brawn and Cosmos. It took about 8 months to get these in hand after seeing the prototypes.

    Another thing is... why does iGear insist on releasing these guys by twos or threes? Manufacturing Brawn and Outback at the same time I can understand because they have similar parts... but why 2 different molds at the same time? If iGear released them one at a time they could release them faster, especially since one of iGear's excuses was that the shipping staff was overwhelmed with orders.

    he's not that tiny in MTMTE, bout half of Red Alert's height. which works, as the Brawn mold is about half the size of the Sideswipe mold, so it'll come out about right. i think
