    I think the Constructions either want to come along, or want Prowl to stay.

    And I do need a Goldbug in my collection, so yay.

    The thought did occur to me that they want to stick with Prowl so that they can continue to combine... of course, I can't really see Prowl or the other Autobots going for that. Hmm.

    You know given how much emphasis on "METALHAWK IS DEAD" I'm betting that Shockwave will use ore-14 to somehow revive him so that he could expose Starscream to the Nails and have everything crush down so that he can take over Cybertron or something.

    Doesn't strike me as a Shockwave's style. I think whose in charge of a city full of space hobos is well beneath notice at this point. Just me, though. Could be wrong.

    The RI covers are making me think that the Generations Deluxes post Wave 2 for Thrilling 30 will continue to pack in IDW comics. Goldbug confirmed?

    Didn't BBTS list a Generations Goldbug or something?

    I'd say its pretty likely.

    Starscream's next act will obviously be Metalhawk's cremation. ;)

    Well, I'm skipping the IDW Bumblebee figure now.

    Don't have a Goldbug.

    Yeah, I think the Constructions my have bonded with Prowl over their hatred of Spike Witwicky.

    It would be neat to see the Constructicons join the Autobots, pehaps get into their individual characters if possible. Also, I find it strange that Bumblebee may turn out to become Goldbug when Goldbug already exists. Either the throttlebots will show up, or maybe Barber is making it so that Spotlight Metroplex will be set in the future.

    Kinda disappointed that Bumblebee is getting redecoed into Goldbug and not a new character, but I guess I can deal with it. Makes Bumblebee a very easy pass.

    "We share a special bond with you, Prowl!"
    "Hell no, I hate you guys. Get away from me."
    "But Prowl, don't you see? We're connected!"

    Seeing as how Prowl points out what horrible beings the Constructicons are and they show no regret over it whatsoever, I really can't see them actually joining the Autobots just like that. Maybe they'll still go along with them, depending on how this plays out, but I doubt they'll swap their Decepticon symbols for Autobot ones.

    And what makes you think Hasbro would have allowed that? They didn't let Costa do so.
