    I hope they make her a headmaster AND a combiner, and an even distracting mix of G1 and IDW juuuuuusssst to piss of the most of you.

    Her head being on the top of the alt mode like that reminds me of Cybertron Override.


    Make Override pink and you pretty much have Elita-One. :lol

    They did that with SG Elita. Honestly, as long as her alt-mode is a car, I'm happy.

    SG Elita-1 was the Override GTS toy.

    Another G1 Female Autobot to go 30+ years without a single decent toy only to be introduced under one of those lines instead of Generations....?

    That would be brutal!

    I think they'll do generations and RiD and I must say that the windblade RiD figure is way better than the generations one so Elita getting one isn't necessarily a bad thing. Me, I want an MP! Prime needs his woman

    I've actually thought RiD Strongarm would make a great Firestar.

    Either way, we need Firestar and Moonracer, if we're getting Elita to go with Chromia.

    I'm so hype about this! After she showed up in idw I've been wanting a toy for get more and more. Personally I don't care what her alt mode is, as long as it isn't a motorcycle. She's a big character who needs a beefy alt mode to match. Relatedly, I really hope she is a voyager class.
    Hey, maybe they'll pretool one as the other and we'll get a new Override too! She would certainly fit into the whole "power of the primes" subline if they're basing it on characters who have primes/convoys/leaders since she's been all of the above in various continuities. It'd be one of the few situations where I'd definitely buy both versions of the mold just to have both characters.

    She's gonna be an extreme remold of Energon Ironhide! I'm calling it now! :lol 

    Yeah, I'm less concerned with a NEW Prime/Convoy and more concerned with getting updated toys for Nitro Convoy/Override, Flame Convoy/Scourge, Live Convoy/Evac, and Megalo Convoy/Metroplex.

    Firestar should be a retool of TR Kup...

    Yep, she pretty much should be a pre-tool of Override...

    "Prime needs his Woman" ? WTF for?

    Prime puts on some Barry White, lights a few plasma ion candles, prepares a romantic energon cube dinner, and then....Dammit we lack the proper equipment! That's why they are so intense in combat... frustration!

    I have Generations Arcee, Chromia, and Windblade + rid ver. and they are nice figures but introducing genders to robots has always seemed been a bit silly IMO. I do find the explanation of genders being a Jhiaxus science experiment to be quite interesting and acceptable. I digress though, atleast they aren't adding marriage to the equation....That would be beyond stupidity.

    Oh My God.

    Please do this Hasbro or Takara! This would be perfect.

    I'd laugh my butt off if her toy came out on the same date Search for Alpha Trion aired.

    They're doing something with her?! My wish is actually coming true?! I... I need to sit down for a sec. Holly crap I've been having crazy luck with the predictions this year concerning Transformers.

    No question about it, Elita will be a day one purchase for me. She'll make a great addition to the collection.

    You know with all my Transformers wishes coming true, I wonder if this means I might get that Starscream and Steeljaw team up I've been wanting.

    I just hope this opens the floodgates for some of the other original fembots to be made as well.
