    True. But we know what Hasbro AREN’T using. Flywheels and Crosshairs are shown as Voyager height on that scale, while both toys are Deluxes. I feel it’s safe to rule this chart out as being useful in informing speculation.

    Following this process of elimination through we can infer that Hasbro are using the scale charts for seasons 1-3 of the US cartoon.

    The forthcoming announcements of Titan and Commander class figures will, hopefully, provide further clarity on what scale chart is being adhered to.

    But Victory Saber is Star Saber and Victory Leo combined.

    What if the leader class figure is elita one?

    I know but it would make sense to have Star Saber and Victory Leo as both leader classes and have them combine into Victory Saber as a Commander Class.

    I’m excited, yet hesitant, for them to start dabbling into SGMF and zone. My shelf’s only have only so much room!

    Plus Ultra Magnus was shrunk down for the cartoon, making the toy obscenely huge next to his contemporaries when viewed through that lens, which is what Hasbro is doing. There is no logical reason to make PMOP leader class. That would force the cab to be Deluxe at best and that just sounds wrong too. I’m hoping for commander class God Ginrai, with a Super Ginrai that’s larger than a leader.

    Wouldn't PM Prime just be repainted Magnus cab with a new trailer? I would love one and think he should be Magnus' size since it scales perfectly. I love my Takara Ginrai, but he's huge and doesn't have the transforming cab.

    Can't wait to see what's in store!!! Really hoping the leader armored car rumor is true and it's my man Roadbuster.

    I would think that would be too anachronistic. Powermaster Optimus Prime only happens after Optimus gets an Earth mode, so that might not work, considering the shift toward screen accuracy for WFC. They might wait on another attempt at him till they're ready to give us proper Powermasters.

    Here's to hoping for Roadbuster though! \o/

    I agree,since Powermaster Optimus Prime/God Ginrai as a commander class would happen later probably in another trilogy since WFC is basically we all know it's a prequel to trilogy to the cartoon.

    I'd rather have Scorponok be a Commander Class so he can still have his Titan master functionality and not look like a frickken dork.

    Besides I prefer comic height.

    I love Hound! Maybe cause I got him first, but is just a great toy.

    Funny as I was just thinking that.....Do Commander Class Prime with a trailer base? Save PM for the final chapter like how PM Prime was the sendoff for the cartoon in the States. The only glitch in that logic was Ultra Magnus was not a season 1 Autobot, but I guess the way it was presented as an "old friend" does indeed put him in that timeline albeit off screen.

    Believe me, even if don't technically need another Prime I am dying for one with a trailer that converts to a base with roller. That will be pre ordered on site.

    I don't think they'd go to Earth modes just yet. It's still early on in the Generations reset and they haven't touched on Earth modes too much. I think that when they do get around to accurate representations of Earth modes, it'll have to be a big deal. Possibly the start of the second trilogy in the Generations reboot.

    No. The MPs aren't toys, they're just display pieces, are too expensive for parents to buy, have a completely different aesthetic, and have absolutely no gimmickry or play pattern ecosystem compatibility. They shouldn't be allowed anywhere near Generations.

    A lot of repaints and new head sculpts, I just picked up one Refraktor, so the three pack sounds interesting, having four different versions of the same toy sounds so bad it's good; at least better than the exact same one 3 times.
