    I hope we get a selects Primal and Megatron from Apeface and whatever future Snapdragon we get. I think it’d be cool to base them off the TM1 forms.

    After looking over the figures a few times, I'm really appreciating them more than at first.
    Astrotrain was always a day-one pre-order. I fixed my TR version and was satisfied with it until these pics came out. No Headmaster, actual accurate alt modes... Yeah, exactly what I was hoping for.
    As for the other three, I have absolutely no connection to them whatsoever, though I'm not opposed to a good figure. For that reason, Spinnester and Apeface will be on the list. I know nothing of the characters and generally don't really care about post movie characters, but they both look cool and would be nice to add to the Decepticon ranks.

    At the very least, generations selects should be able to provide that much.

    In Titans Return they did show a preference for toy heads. But I suppose this was when Hasbro and Takara he separate lines. Would love to know how they decide between them now. I reckon some sort of email chain of votes between Johnny Hasbros and Hiro Takaras.

    Cerebros had his toon head as well.
    His Takara and SDCC counterparts had the toy based head.

    Hopefully it’s wrong or there’s a revision wave with more Crosshairs.

    I want to see Siege Spinister as Vortex and Blades.

    I think Sureshot will be a heavy retool of Siege Mirage.

    If the render is accurate I am intrigued to see how they hide Spinister\'s second cockpit leg.

    Not everyone can get a unique mold, though. Their budget allows for only so many unique figures a year, and even then, it's still not quite as bad as CW was with retools and recolors. I mean, they figured out a way to get us to spend $60 on one mold (Reflector) and $100 on the Seeker mold thus far. I'm wondering how people would react if Fun Pub still did TFCC and Crosshairs wound up as one of their figures (with the caveat being that, yes, FP was only able to afford head retools if they retooled at all).

    Along with most of the Armada Cybertronians/ Generics (Most of them being based on G1 Designs. They could make great companion pieces for Demolishor.)

    I totally forgot that Cosshairs targetmaster was released in the Japanese legends series, so if you have that your Crosshairs will be complete. It either came with one of the jumpstarters or Doublecross.

    Out of curiousity, Did Needlenose win the vote thing, because I just realized how great it would be for them to be together again!

    I believe that was 11 minutes into the list.
    But seriously, I thinking getting g2 shuttle blast off will be less likely than getting an accurate Rack'n'Ruin AND Xaaron at this point.... I'd love to be proven wrong, though.
    The demolishcons would be pretty neat.
