    I deleted the post because I realized it was off topic. I had assumed this had turned into an anticipation thread, but I guess I was wrong.

    Fenrir you have him wrong Overlord has never been a duocon he is a Godmaster and his two vehicles are Transtectors totally different thing. I am in agreement that Overlord will get released but it is doubtful he will be Titan class.

    Yeah the jet and tank clearly don't have the same shape TR Megatron has going so this is a clear sign of us getting Overlord.

    on the other hand, the tank seems to be pointing at the jet. like they're locked in combat, even though they combine into one robot. maybe the image just represents the duality of man?

    It does raise a question: Do you think Hasbro will retool TR Megatron to make Overlord?

    There will be riots if that happens.

    I would love it if that happens. That would be a very good way to update Pretenders.

    That would be a pretty lame thing to riot about. The Megs mould looks pretty good, it has the required jet and tank modes, Blitzwing had a toy quite recently and doesn't need an update so badly...

    Seems like a good fit to me.

    The problem mostly stems from the fact that Overlord (Gigatron?) has always been, essentially, a plus sized Powermaster Duocon. Sure, it's an okay solution, but, just like making Flywheels and Battletrap triple changers, it's sort of a cop-out to the real gimmick of two separate vehicles becoming one robot.

    Also, he's a leader character that should have a leader class figure.

    I could see how it might seem like a lame thing to riot about, if someone knew or cared nothing about Overlord. For those of us who do know and care, that would be a pretty major disappointment.

    I could almost see Hasbro cluelessly thinking it was an acceptable idea, but there's no way I'd believe Takara would sign off on that.

    So Wave Three is pretty much locked down. Still waiting on an official reveal for Doublecross but we've seen everyone else.

    What do we think we're getting for Wave Four?

    For Titan Masters the leaked names are Shuffler, Repugnus and Thunderclap.

    Don't think we've had any hints about other Legends figures beyond rumours of Brawn and whichever Throttlebot Bumblebee will be redone as?

    A whole heap of Deluxes have been rumoured: Kup, Topspin, Krok and Quake feel like the front runners but Perceptor, Fastlane, Chromia seem close with Pounce, Wingspan, Cloudraker and Arcee more distantly. Be interesting to see how if the clones will be a regular Deluxe release or something more particular.

    Tidalwave has been rumoured as a Voyager and while it doesn't seem like anything has been leaked yet Blitzwing, Octane and Broadside seem inevitable. Who're the two frontrunners though?

    Can't recall seeing any other Leaders other than Quickswitch and Overlord being rumoured or hinted at.

    That's far too deep for this thread. Of course, that's apparently a pretty low bar . . .

    I guess this increases the chances of Fastlane being a remold of Topspin.
