It does add up to the previous leaks with new content most of which I'm sure we all saw coming.

 

Voyager class Quintesson? I hope it's a 2 or 3 pack.

 

I don’t think it could be real mainly because of the cone head 3 pack, it would be more costly to produce due to the three figures having to have different tooling for the wings and stuff, also I’m pretty sure they lost the trademark on runabout, I’m pretty sure they haven’t got that back, also didn’t warden say there wasn’t no bumblebee in earth rise? (Also I’m a weirdo who would rather buy all the cone heads separately instead of having to mentally justify buying three of the same guy, when it’s 80 bucks or more,)

 

I'm in for Shrapnel, Bumblebee, Trailbreaker, Sunstreaker, Blaster, Quintesson x3, maybe Skylynx, maybe Coneheads, maybe Quintessa.

I'm a bit relieved there are some I don't want because those Quints are gonna hurt.

Still need Gears, Huffer, Bombshell, Kickback, and Frenzy. (Not gonna re-buy every minibot unless they floor me.)

I'm leaning towards the Quintessons being the rumored non-Autobot faction set now.

I feel like Quintessa could be a mix of TLK and this.



I'm leaning towards an Arcee pretool.

 

That would be disappointing to me. I want them 5 faced and tentacled.

 

I assume the QUINTESSONS will be. Quintessa is a separate character, an import of the TLK character.

Oh!

And since I'm making the rounds:

We have a scale reference for Cliffjumper.



He looks to be a bit less bulky than Legends Bumblebee or rather his bulk is all shifted into his depth. Bumblebee is a little weird there as his right hand is outstretched but I quadruple checked relative height.

Cliffjumper's tiny. So we're not abandoning scale but this is very complex Legends sized figure at a premium.

Think of it this way: You may pay an extra $10 for Cliffjumper but you won't need to re-buy every minibot.

 

Cybercookies always posts fake lists

 

I was going with it was reference to the planet so it would be another playset character like Ironworks.

 

well there ya go

 

While I’ll admit I was surprised to see that Sky Lynx is the next Commander Class figure, I was really wanting to see someone like Deathsaurus or Overlord take that spot as it already seems this line is again much more Autobot focused.

 

Sunbow's robot chart is useless for actual scale discussions. It's just the height that the robots were drawn in the cartoon, and the cartoon wasn't even consistent at that. It has absolutely zero bearing on the idea of "what size would this Transformer character be if this particular toy was its actual form in real life?" -- The only way to do that is to compare its vehicle form to known earth vehicles (or approximate based on assuming a similar size to an earth vehicle) and measure and do the math. Either every Transformer is a mass-former (which is a dumb idea) or the Sunbow chart is off for nearly every character. I choose the latter.

 

That all being your opinion is fine but by matter of fact its false, the official scale chart is correct, how can you deny that? An animation error, inconsistent frames etc do not negate the master scale, ALL cartoons have a master scale which stands rather or not every single frame adheres to it 100%, as for your suggestion to scale using vehicle mode, that's nonsensical, the cartoon vehicles are not 100% exact to their real world counterparts and even if they were, there is no formula to extrapolate Robot mode from that, real world vehicle mass would be vastly different than an actual transformers mass, mass shifting, alien technology, all of that is in play and its nonsensical to try to strictly apply a formula based on real world vehicles to fictional aliens with vehicle alt modes etc

 

It also misses the point of mass shifting which is to allow the robots to have human like interactions with one another within a camera frame by shoring up their height and also allowing some to have more direct contact with humans. Bumblebee is 10 feet tall so that he can engage in more normal human activities, walk into buildings, and be friends with humans.

The cars are irrelevant (and generally unlicensed) but the relationships and banter is key.

 

The War For Cybertron line has thus far been 100% accurate to Sunbow scale charts. This was predicted based on information extrapolated from Hasbro interviews and panels and has been consistently demonstrated by the toys themselves. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

 

You know they could easily make all those mini-spies that were packed with minibots into micormasters once they run out of ones to do or ones they skipped over

 

So the almost certainly inevitable Earthrise Tracks- which face is he likely to have, cartoon or toy?

 

It'd be grand if they used his hoodiness to give him a reversible head with both, though I suspect 'Toon for him and Toy for her with the Roadrage repaint getting the G1 look.

 

My bet is on cartoon since that's what they've been doing recently (e.g. Crosshairs).

 

I would rather pay 20 for a perfect Cliffjumper than one that's needlessly large
