    Oh yeah! I was thinking the weird Last Knight character.
    (Although maybe in robot mode...)

    A weaponizer (or are they modulators now?) who turns into a bunch of curly ramps to simulate the planet's weird geography... I could see that happening.

    a brick with a head that rotates! crazy talk, that's soo much articulation!

    I would have expected just a hollow egg with faces glued and some bendy wire tentacles sticking out of it. To change the faces that you have to turn the entire figure. the cheapskates.

    Again I like sky-lynx, but really, Sky-lynx doesn’t really look like a dragon, he just looks like a spaceship with four legs.

    Star saber is definitely more of an appeal to kids. A dude who flies a red jet with a space trailer, that then fits inside said red jet to become a sword wielding robot who then combines with the trailer to become an even bigger sword wielding robot. What about that doesn’t have a wide appeal?

    I will be pre-ordering Scorponok as soon as those pre-orders are available, also really hope they come through with the Allicons one day! Always loved the design over the Sharkticons.

    Four legs, wings, long tail and neck, mouth full of teeth... may as well call him a dragon.

    Sky Lynx would be the first skippable figure in the new line for me. Never liked him, even as much as I liked space shuttles as a kid.

    If we are getting an official quintesson, can Kranix and Arblus be far behind? That would be good news for me.

    I'm pretty excited about this. Granted, rumors are rumors. I would have thought the TF:TM tie-ins would have come in Chapter 3 when Unicron comes out... I'm all for troop building. Heck, I have many Refraktors. I'm good with many Quintessons. I, like others, hope for more Sharkticons. The current Cyberverse release is too "kiddy" and doesn't quite fit (still a fun figure though).

    I'm really excited about Scorponok.

    Skylynx? Why can't we have a Decepticon commander class figure? I'm happy about Skylynx, but still... I would have preferred a baddie.

    Sky Lynx in Commander Class is pretty much as perfect as you can get.

    Quintessa is an interesting addition to fembots and, considering she's an obscure character, she will most likely be retooled into another one.

    Still don't know about Quintessons.

    Never was a huge Skylinx fan either, but would welcome a Commander class one without hesitation.
    After all, my PotP Predaking needs a punching bag.

    Yeah no.

    Quintessa isnt going to have a stand alone studio series by itself. If quintessa is ever revisited in SS it will be a mini figure packed in with either a new infernocus figure or figures.

    So its not likely a typo but more likely there bringing a movieverse character into a different line its not something hasbro hasnt done in the past with others

    I personally didn't say never. But does POST still make Alphabet's Cereal? I kinda miss it.
    Yeah, me neither. I'd prefer he was a Titan. And I really wanted Deathsaurus to be the next Commander and after that they can make any Commander class character they want...

    Besides the obvious exceptions(*), every figure in WFC has been near perfectly scaled, so do you think this rumored Commander Class Sky Lynx will be properly scaled to Hasbro Predaking just like they did with Omega Supreme and CW Devastator???

    A lot of people seem to forget the Earthrise Chapter takes place during the Voyage from Cybertron to Earth, and not on Earth at all; yes the Toy Line suggest otherwise, but Hasbro stated that they don't get Earth modes till the end of the Earthrise Chapter.

    Quintason and Quintessa are a total mystery. I hope Quintessa is a Weaponizer Base, and I hope the Quintesson actually transforms into something, and not just a partsformer with different face configurations, "Mr. Potato Head".

    Why is MPM Ratchet listed for double the price of MPM Starscream? I'd think it'd be the other way around.
