TFW member GenZhao has posted images of figures that can only be described as "prototypes of toys in development". So what the hell are these things? Who knows, could the red car be a Human Alliance prototype, and if so, what if it's not a Revenge of The Fallen release, but a G1 character, possibly in the Classics/Universe line? For that matter, what if it's not a Human Alliance figure but a deluxe Classics Jazz? Or Drift?
Could the grey ground based vehicle be a scout or legends figure? The styling is reminiscent of War Within...
