    Pretty sure this is a Computron mockup. He was quoted as having new hands/feet, and I can see how they'd be testing the brawl mold with the drill, which is obviously a resin cast, and the new foot. That thigh looks like Superion/Scattershot's arms, too.

    It's a toss-up. The Decepticon symbol leans it a little more towards it being Liokaiser, but that's why there's a question mark. And the Silverbolt leg can also be Leozack, rather than the rumored Deathsaurus.

    I highly doubt Hasbro would go through the trouble of making a COMPLETELY different hand/feet mold. I mean, yeah, each figure has a slightly different hand/foot, but the foot in this picture clearly does not become a hand. It's a separate thing.

    I mean, yes, they DID make separate feet and hands for Victorion, but I imagine that's in the interest of making the character look more "feminine" (smaller, sleeker hands, making the feet look like heels, etc). Why would they do that for a regular combiner?

    That's the same drill accessory from the Botcon 2016 Ramhorn mock-up. I kinda assumed the same drill piece would be used for Nosecone, but man Liokaiser would be amazing.

    What the fuck? Liokasier? Really? A Japanese exclusive nobody to the Western world?

    This is so mind numbingly obviously a shot of the Computron box set rumored from that computer listing that seeing it called "Liokasier" hurts me, and that's assuming it's real.

    Of all the unrealistic asinine...

    I am betting it is Computron mockup and they just used a Brawl for it.

    Computron isn't a regular combiner though, he's a box set.

    Um...

    Chill dude. It's speculation at this point. We haven't confirmed anything. AGAIN, hence the question mark in the title.

    I think his point is that it's ridiculous to assume hasbro would release Liokaiser when we already have rumors of Computron, and Nosecone is undoubtedly going to use this exact same mold with the drill and everything.

    Basically he's saying the title should be "First Glimpse of Combiner Wars Computron?"

    I guess the fact that Liokaiser was already rumored doesn't really matter then.

    They've both been on Hasbro's minds for approximately the same amount of time. We only have about a month or so til Toy Fair, so we'll just have to wait and see.

    Sure this is just a mockup for Comuotron, but if those rumors about a CW "Liokaiser" with a remolded "Deathsaurus" as the torso turn out to be true I wouldn't be surprised if this limb gets reused for it.

    Looking at this more closely, I think it's a Computron mockup. That's a Superion upper leg there; I recognize the detailing.

    It's most likely both a shot of liokiaser and Computron sence 3 characters will be most likely sharing a drill tank alt mode nosecone drillhorn and killbision if the rumored figures are true and these combiners come to pass

    It's also possible that's Leozack up there. Or this is the Botcon set.
