Love that Hot Zone! And since we aren't likely to get the actual RiD Prime in Hot Spot/Defensor deco, then the Titanium should do.

All three of the ones were ARE getting are repaints, and they never got around to even making molds (as I understand it) on those you mention here.
Johnator:
I'll get Thrust. Also add me to the "Glad it is some non-movie news" camp.
primal-convoy:
Why are people going gaga over these? They are TERRIBLE. The paint is usually all over the place, the designs are compromised in some way (ie: the seeker jet mold has a huge hole in the rear where you can clearly see the bot mode head etc) and the metal parts are not tight and hang loosely, making even OP look lie a puppet without strings.
And they haven't even included the name stand this time around?\
They've seen you lot comin', so they have.
The only thing they need to do is just re-release these things in all plastic, with tighter joints, better paint-apps and a lower price under the "Universe" name. Problem sorted.
Sharktibolt:
I WILL be getting Thrust. It would be my first figure of the mould and I like the looks of it.
And with all these pics of these guys getting put out, why haven't we heard a release date for them yet? DX I want to know if I need to save my money now or later on like July.
Dran0n:
Ugggg...........more Titanium figures Railguard:
I hope they bring back Soundwave and Jetfire.

Problem sorted. | I'm not QUITE so hostile to Titaniums, but I, too, wonder what the appeal is (I've already said I'd get Hot Spot/Zone pretty much only because of the 3H exclusive reference, if I get it at all). VERY expensive for the size. TERRIBLE transformations. Generally just not worth the fuss.
REDLINE:
ooooo I LOVE how dark Thrust is! I want him so bad. Shame we only get 5 out of the 7 characters as WW models.
Pimpimus Prime:
wtf? no stand? Target better not be charging a premium for these.
Lord Prime S.:
I saw Thrust and Hot Zone in package the other day at some store. Hot Zone looks really really good with the blue color.
Dont like Thrust...

They're just doing a few repaints that we've known about for a few months already.
And, in any event, even if they did, it's not all that positive a sign that those other mold designs would be pulled out again. Hasbro's moved on....

To do any new molds for this line would almost be cost prohibitive at this point.
