    Given that the limbs are interchangeable will you make your own combination ?you have 3 awsome voyagers and a ton of deluxes why not ?

    For shits and giggles when I'm bored, but for the most part they'll be staying as they are normally team wise.

    No, because I'm very intent on fictive accuracy, so it makes no sense to slap Autobots into Decepticons and vice versa, though admittedly for giggles it might be neato, I guess.

    If I ever get around to getting them, yes. I'll wait for the whole line then just pick and choose.

    absolutely not.. i have never ever been a fan of the scramble city bs.

    it just makes zero sense to me and sort sullies the whole idea of "combiner teams" and giving them their own group names.

    you have seriously got to be kidding me right?.. seriously.. you HAVE to be looking at the wrong figures or are just for some strange reason thrilled by a complete regression in articulation, detail, and overall aesthetic.

    these figures are okay looking, but by no means are they anywhere close to being the "best set of regular line figures ever revealed".. now that is just plain silly.

    I'm hoping the new guys use the same connectors as FOC Bruticus. Then we'd have even more combinations!

    They've stated that they will use a new port... they won't work with FOC. That said, I am sure a third party will create adapters.

    I think of the revealed sets, I'll have them displayed in their combined mode, that way I can keep my original "Classics" versions like SE Dragstrip and TFCCSS Breakdown as the solo robots.

    See the question here should be, if the mind of the Gestalt is a result of combining all the minds together, does this mean swapping out limbs Scramble City style results in a new personality?

    What happens if we combine Silverbolt (afraid of flying), Slingshot (insecure), Brawl (stupid), Dead End (suicidal), Breakdown (paranoid)? Do you get a Self loathing insecure and paranoid idiot robot who want's to top himself?

    Unless meant Hasbro meant 4 unique voyager molds, I doubt it. It would be the easiest thing to do given how easy it is to repaint Optimus, helicopter guy, and some of the stunticons before new molds have to be made, but it also means a lack of deceptions again.

    I don't plan on getting Breakdown, Dragstrip, Silverbolt, Powerglide or Optimus, because I don't want to double dip on characters.

    BUT, there's plenty from what I do plan on getting to make something!

    No, I never bother with swapping limbs between different teams.

    I'll probably just keep them with their original teams. Scramble City is a cool concept, but I've never had much of a use for it since I don't generally mix & match members of a team.
