    I would love Rack n' Ruin. They could be weaponizers (which already don't have much of a cohesive alt mode) and connect together with a simple peg.

    I hope KSI Boss is a new mold so then it can be a great Studio Series Nitro Zeus.

    what I'm hoping is that Studio Series will try and have a Megatron for each year (so there's no year where the main antagonist is excluded) so 2020 I'm hoping to finally get a new version of 2007 Megatron

    Rumors are that Hasbro hates the 2007 Megatron design soo much they don’t want to use it ever again.

    Easily my least favorite, with Galvatron not much higher (the lack of a real transformation hurt him a lot but the cool truck mode and better proportions save him). I wouldn't be too sad if we never get him but I'd also probably buy him if we do get him just for completion's sake.

    They said there'd be a ROTF MP and it's probably Megatron. Seeing how much love they've given ROTF Megatron as of late.

    People are saying...$50?...for the Firestormer set?

    Why not Deluxe Sideswipe ($20), Micromaster "Team" Slamdance ($10), and then that "Ai..." thing that we can't read all of as the $20 Deluxe? Like...oh..."Aileron" as a repaint of Sixgun?

    Because the Chinese text has "Aimless" spelled out completely, while the English in the spreadsheet just cuts off at "Ai-".

    Don't get me wrong, I'd be in for Aileron just because its a character that hasn't been done. I'd prefer to see other characters like Slammer was Weaponizers first too though.

    I'm hoping Aimless is a placeholder and they just use that name because its the base mold, though Flywheels and Skywarp being called out by name don't give me confidence. If Dazlestrike can get away with being barely different from Lionizer, they could at least give Firestormer Aimless a different name as well.

    Also I thought I saw someone on social media mention Siege Sideswipe has ports in his shoulders where Hasbro/Shapeways/Kitbashers could attach G2 looking shoulder wheel armor? Maybe its Deluxe Sideswipe ($20) + Micromaster Team Slamdance ($10) + Aimless Battlemaster ($6) + extra weapons/accessories/blasty effects ($14??? seems steep). Probably not with that math, but I'll take any chance at a Generations G2 Sideswipe I can get after the club went and made the Botcon one a customizer class figure that nobody ever bothered to KO.

    Not sure how much Takara would bother if Hasbro wasn't pushing for more MPM's.
