    with the siege data base up I was able to discover siege greenlights code. The code is “Lancer”
    With the info shown something interesting pops up and I’m sure it will make some people very happy!
    It Looks like we're getting a 4th female combiner limb (probably Lancer)
    The new combiner name is "Orthia"

    Curious that it says "Combiner: Orthia". Did Elita Infinite get a new name?

    Most likely I asked the mods to change the thread title.

    Might pick up Greenlight/Seasick Novastar if there is indeed a 4th leg. :eek:

    I wonder... would that mean that we will get the last member as a nother Deluxe/Battlemaster two-pack deal?

    And are we going to get redecoes/rereleases of Elita-1 along with Moonracer and Novastar?

    Doubt it, since PotP just happened.
    And now we have an official combiner for Elita-1 and her team of ladies.
    Now I just need Novastar.

    Interestingly, when I searched Orthia up on Google(thinking it to be a Greek name), I discovered that it is the name for a genus of moths. :lol 

    Looking it up a bit more though, I discovered that there is a Greek temple called the “Sanctuary of Artemis Orthia”

    Artemis was a Greek Goddess, commonly associated with women, in terms of protecting and childbirth, as well as hunting. Interestingly enough though, if I understand wikipedia correctly, the Sanctuary was actually built by a group called the Cult of Orthia, which comprised of four cities, and was Pre-Olympian. Meaning that it predated the rise of Greek religion. During that time, the Goddess was simply mentioned as Orthia, but it was later mended into Artemis Orthia. There were also apperently other accompanying Goddesses, so it looks like our ladies are pretty special.

    Does anyone know what that first clue is? Is there a hidden message?

    Most likely another situation along the lines of Ultra Prime/Optimus Maximus and Betatron/Computron, where the torso and a random set of limb bots is one, and a specific set of limbs is the other.

    I'm going to leave it as it is, Elita Infinite is more recognisable to the fandom at large. Orthia sounds like a 3P name.

    If it were Jazz, or even Stepper, why label it as classified? We know that toy exists. To me, classified means "we've not shown you this yet, so we're going to tease that it is coming"

    While this is cool and all for people who are really into the female Autobots, I can't say that I find it exciting or visually interesting to have a combiner whose limbs are four copies of basically the same mold with the same transformation.

    Putting my money on it being Lancer.

    Orthia is a pretty sweet name for the combiner, a lot better than Elita Infinite.

    Okay. Good combiner name. Glad this is gonna be done. I never got any of the fembots but it seemed cool. There’s still like 30 total voyagers of hun-gurrrs and elita at one of my stores. I doubt I’ll find moonracer or novastar though.

    This is cool. I have Novastar and planned to get Greenlight. I want to build this now.
    Now, I feel this combiner needs some special feet, maybe remold of the Victorion feet, instead of those bear paws that came with Elita.

    I thought love was only true in fairy taaaales 
    then I saw her toy now I\'m a believer....


    Now all they need to do is rerelease the others so I can have a chance to catch up or release a gift set then my life will be complete.

    I personally think that Orthia is a terrible name. It sounds too 3P
