    Other than Blast Off, you could get decent Wreckers as remolds of Combaticons.

    Onslaught -> Pyro
    Brawl -> Impactor
    Swindle -> jalopy-out the front of the jeep and you've got Kup
    Vortex -> Rotorstorm

    Maybe IronFist/Guzzle or Topspin/Twin Twist as mini-combiners for the fourth limb?

    Anything remotely more interesting than the last 2-3 years of TFCons.

    yes to FT Thomas colored version (fingers crossed), and actual test shot of MMC MP Ramhorn. If other cassettes too, why not, but Ramhorn is the one i want the most.

    MT aint gonna do nothing but to sloooowly release their coneheads 1 every year or two, and that is a big maybe. They are pretty stunted as it is, couldnt hope for much else from them...

    FT Chomp? Who knows. Maybe? I just want my FT triple changers though...

    Interesting they announce the figure now even though tickets for the custom class have been sold out for weeks. Oddly enough, if they sold the figure in the yellow or the lime green as straight up repaints, I’d probably get them both. I wonder if in the customizing class they’ll also cover how to adjust the ‘ratchet’ to allow the hips to have a mid-click so the A-stance won’t need to be only the original, very wide one. I recall a YouTube vid covering how to do this when one of voodoo’s figures game out.

    Baaahhh well, looks like Newage H8Y Tata it is for me. So, I guess I’m also going to be looking forward to whatever legends, legends+ (and legends-) figures are available for sale and revealed to be released in the near future, as those figures and repaints are pumped out at seemingly 10x’s the pace of MP-scaled counterparts, which is a bit understandable considering they’re approx. 1/10th the size (too bad the NA and IF stuff isn’t 1/10th the price).

    Nonetheless, I tip my hat to their nod to nostalgia.

    Still waiting to see what exclusives are announced that’d justify me getting the early access to the dealers’ room pass, rather than just getting the regular 11am entry one.

    I'd also like to see a thumb wrestling competition among the best and brightest 3P owners, reviewers, photogs, newsies, and collectors.

    Love how this figure looks. This is Galvatron on the Darklanda, now we just need his brother/sister Arcee.

    I know you are being sarcastic but I'd prefer the different companies would diversify more.

    Which version of the Wreckers?

    After the almost fail of the Hasbro Unicron I don't know if there is a real market for 1 m bots.

    Would like a IF Lockdown, Lugnut and Bulkhead.

    Hope MFT makes an Arcee, Blurr and Wreck-Gar to go with the rest of the G1 S3 cast I have at home.

    Prefer new molds than redesigns.

    Like the DJD or the Dinobots the Wreckers are cool enough on their own they don't need to combine.

    Is there any lore about this bot or did Newage create a new fan favorite?

    I'd like to see anything new from Fans Project.

    Or even an update on some of their long pending projects...

    Probably not, unless they have some back stock previously held for replacement parts. I can't think of any time they repeated an exclusive at successive TFCons.

    Perhaps they might have the Azalea Alternative repaint.

    Oh boo, thanks for the heads up. Typical MMC delays across the board it seems, impacting Reformatted, Assaultus, and Azalea. Hope somehow the ReMix cassettes stay on course for 2020 delivery.
