    Do want Takara to finish up their 'Leader' toys. An MP-05 Megs remake would be cool.

    Did TCracker leave?

    's'too bad...I know a lot of people had fun with the guessing thing.

    I'm sure he's got other priorities right now, but I think we, as a community, lost something substantial 'cause a few jagoffs had to act like apes.

    So, for the rest of us to sit around and guess without anything to base it on....I don't see the point.

    I see him post in other threads (cool stuff). I think he's just sick of having a troll target painted on his back. Also, honestly, he gave us enough to guess what the next 3-5 MPs are going to be. We just don't know the order, but it's more than a year worth of stuff regardless.

    TC left due to a user in the old thread. I hope he sees enough love in here for him to make him ignore that hater and come back.

    From what I gather, we know what we are going to know for up until MP-15, now all that is left is figuring out the special pack ins/accessories.

    One hint pionts towards Galvatron coming with ashes and a smashed crown. I dunno if that is odd or the coolest accessory ever. Technically you can say that Galvatron comes with MP Starscream lol.

    I hope he comes back too! I did notice his new sig that leads me to believe that they are doing Ironhide in the future.

    If I am on the right track his Sig pic refers to something completely different which I believe will blow the fandom away.

    Let me ask TC if I can share the info in pm. I do not want to break his trust which is why I am only refering to somethign that was hinted at already by him.

    Outside of the same 3-5 upcoming Masterpiece figures "hints" over & over again, he also eluded to the Dinobots possibly seeing Encore releases and seemed to indicate there could be an all new G1 related sub-line being worked on. My impression was that this possible new sub-line will tackle smaller-than-Masterpiece characters but have as much 1980's cartoon accuracy as MP's do.

    All of this was clearly typed out in the old thread, so I don't see the need to be super secretive about it... especially since nothing has actually been confirmed and it's just guess work & speculation on our part.

    I knew about the possibility of the Encore Dinobots. Which I am personally excited for, if it does (when it) comes to fruition.


    That's why I said Ironhide.

    You guys all lose! (for those who said other than soundwave)

    It's Soundwave! That thing would sell faster than any other MP to date!
    $180.00/preorder (Ravage and Laserbeak $35. each (not included)

    Better not talk about the trainwreck that closed the previous threads, so they don't end up closing this one too. If he feels like returning, he will.

    Pretty much this. I didn't know it was right out in the open but seeing as you know I guess it is lol.

    I don't know the part about it being like mini MPs but I do know they are going back to pure G1 and not like Classics where even the looks got updated. My understanding is that we are getting the OG1 looks back.
    Now is this a new TT inspired series or just a line? That I do not know. But between the planned release date and the long term plans for Prime it does sound like the two lines will overlap.

    Who knows maybe Classicverse will be finished in the next couple of years and they will move on to Neo-G1 or whatever it is going to be called.

    :useless 
    and by pics I mean TCracker.



    The rumored "G1 subline" is probably the most interesting thing revealed in the old thread, IMO.

    Here is another hint.

    The TT hint thread that was locked this morning was locked prematurely.

    When it comes to insiders who knows more? The dude that works at a car dealership or the dude that designs the cars that are sold at said dealership?
