    There could still be some surprises for the 35th anniversary.

    Is the Soundwave repainted from Drift still a possibility? Seems like it'd be a slap in the face to fans who've been waiting for a DOTM Soundwave, even if he does come with Soundwave and Ravage like it was potentially rumored

    For studio series I feel like we'll pretty much just see what has been leaked out
    KSI BOSS
    New Drift
    Bumblebee movie Optimus Prime
    Car mode Dropkick
    My boi Hightower
    Leader class DOTM Optimus

    Possibly another exclusive figure

    Anything more than that and they'd be showing off 2020 products, which are far and away a full year at least.
    Some more information about the Constructicons could be cool, and a way for Hasbro to stoke more information for the combiner. (possibly confirmation of size classes for the remaining four figures?)

    I'd like to see more of the Studio Series Constructicons. Really curious how Mixmaster or Scavenger will turn out.

    Still, any new Bots or Cons for the series will be fine with me.

    One of the reasons I think Dropkick will be a retool of shatter is because changing dino's product code seemed like a last minute thing.

    After those images came out it got me thinking-I'd be most excited for Generations Evergreen, more than the other stuff I mentioned previously. Probably just setting myself up for disappointment (again) but I love the idea of it. If they kept they design quality/consistent scaling of Siege and Studio Series, I could myself going completionist for a line like that.

    Is Siege going to be as short as PotP was?

    If so, I bet there's only one wave officially revealed, which everyone else has already listed out.

    I think we may see the second commander class being a decepticon.

    I bet it's either thunderwing or TidalWave.

    It also would be nice to see the hot shot repaint from hound.

    Not that short.

    So after yesterday’s reveals I’m glad I guessed well but it was all low hanging fruit. So I’m hoping we get to see the following Siege items at Toy Fair along with the reveals from yesterday.

    Leader
    Optimus Prime (Official reveal)

    Voyager
    Springer
    Thundercracker

    Deluxe
    Red Alert (Official reveal)
    Barricade

    The wave 3 Micromasters and Battle masters

    The Greenlight pack (official reveal)

    I think the other two multipacks will get shown at SDCC

    I think there is a chance (however small) that we could get some news at NYTF about the upcoming next line in the WFC Trilogy. With there being no Hascon in September and SDCC still 5-6 months away there aren't that many opportunities for Hasbro to reveal/share information about the next line before it's eventual release later this year.

    I think we get the name of the next line at the least. Possibly some basic information about the theme of the line and it's figures. Perhaps some silhouettes on a presentation slide with a very slim chance of a preview of 1-2 figures from that line...?

    I doubt we'll see anything of the next line until SDCC. That's where Hasbro has revealed the next line for the past two years (Siege, PotP), and I don't see why they'd change the schedule now.

    Toy Fair is in less than a week away. I've very excited to see what they have for Studio Series. But I shouldn't be too excited because even if there is proof or rumors of upcoming characters, things can change.

    I haven't had a good night sleep for almost 2 weeks. IS it because I am excited about toy fair whether it will reveal wave 7 of Studio Series, or is it too much sugar?

    No doubt wave 7 will be revealed at Toy Fair this Saturday. I'm just more torn to whether wave 7 will contain 3 or 4 new specific Deluxe figures. One we do know will be Dropkick.

    Takara kind of stole their thunder with a "clean" Jetfire and the convoys.
