    Sky Lynx would have three alt modes, no? And four if it can be a base somehow.

    You do have point, so maybe it's Broadside after all

    But the previous hint was that the commander compliments Omega really well, I don't see how it can easily apply to Broadside.

    I don't want another Broadside, right now. Get Sky Lynx done properly, first, then we can revisit figures that don't really need it right now.

    Will the Commander scale with a preexisting Titan Class figure?

    What if they changed the jet mode for a shuttle mode (due to a more logical mode to be more in scale with the aircraft carrier) for an hypothetical commander class Broadside ? That could fit perfectly with Siege Omega Supreme

    So could be a great surprise if they do two commanders this time

    I doubt they'd change a large character like that considering that most of WFC so far has been true to each character. Maybe the carrier mode can "dock" with Omega's ramps via AIR lock system?

    Updated list of @catz clues.

    Everything catz said (so far):


    Summarized implications/clues from everything catz said ( [ ] = we don't know yet, [x] = confirmed/clarified, and if so it is noted next to the clue entry):

    Normal retail releases:

    • One '86 movie character deluxe that was already done in Titans Return which to catz feels somewhat redundant as a result. Not Hot Rod/Rodimus, but is an autobot.[ ]
    • Another deluxe, an Autobot, NOT an '86 movie character, that was already done in a recent line (not Titans Return) this year (2019) which catz feels is somewhat redundant as a result. And may be a pretool for another character.[ ]
    • A voyager that is "perfect" (not Grapple, yet to be revealed) and is white in color.[ ]
    • Another voyager that slightly disappointed catz but was understandable given the theme of the new line (revealed to be Earthrise Starscream) [x]
    • The title of the line having something to do with the aforementioned somewhat disappointing/redundant voyager, and helping to explain why it was done/justified (revealed to be Earthrise, with the title/theme justifying another Starscream happening so soon - this wasn't a figure clue, just the subtitle of the line, Earthrise.) [x]
    • A leader class that a third party (to catz' knowledge) has never tackled yet, has an "armored car" alt mode of some sort, was done in the past but never perfectly, and has blue coloration on it. (Confirmed to be excluded meaning it is NOT: Thunderclash, Ultra Magnus, and NOT a Micromaster base.)[ ]
    • A commander class that somehow compliments Omega Supreme nicely, and has a second alt mode. Its second alt mode is a base mode.[ ]
    • A much anticipated Titan (confirmed to be Scorpinok) [x]
    • New micromaster combiners (catz did not specify, so this could be anything from full on combiners, to micromaster duos, since the clue - that they wouldn't be alone soon - was said in response to duos.) [ ]
    • A "very famous" Decepticon character who will also be a micromaster base, assumed to also have a bot mode based on what catz saw. The color of this character is "very Decepticon-y." (Not Thunderwing, based on catz' response to someone suggesting that possibility.) [ ]
    • Another unspecified micromaster base, this time a character who was Japan-exclusive during G1 and who had a base mode then as well. The color of this character is "very Autobot-y." [ ]
    • Another unspecified micromaster base, this time apparently inspired by a character from the old RiD line, who also had a base mode back then as well. The color of this character is "very Autobot-y." [ ]

    Exclusive releases (may or may not be show-exclusive):
    • A voyager [ ]
    • A non-Autobot (Decepticon? Mercenary? Other?) faction boxed set featuring one figure from each class, with the largest being a Voyager [ ]
    As usual, using the spoiler tags to collapse the lengthy posts.

    I think Catz meant that what he said earlier about the 86 movie titans return character was a mistake and that it's actually a figure that was made this year in another line and NOT an 86 movje character after all.

    There were two deluxes for which catz previously offered clues. One he specifically said WAS an '86 movie character and an autobot already done in TR, but not Hot Rod/Rodimus. The other one, the second, was what he was responding to and clarifying was NOT an '86 movie character and not done in TR specifically, since that had previously been a tad ambiguous (that's why he was quoting me asking "also '86 movie? Also autobot?")

    Glad Catz has been on point and remains so. Im going to re quote myself on Scorps though, from another thread (winter wonderfest 19), as I was first to call this a long time ago.

    Also reminds me how brilliant this year has been from transformers and how fast & sizable the release schedule was, meaning earthrise will come thick and fast once 2020 hits.

    Now I'm wondering if both of those figures he was referring to were mistakenly placed as titans return figures instead of the more recent line Catz refers to in his recent post. It would make since if the line he was referring to from this year was siege since that would mean someone is gonna get the earth mode treatment and would explain why Catz feels it'd be reduntant for a figure to go from a siege cybertronian mode to a very similar robot but different alt-mode, earthrise figure.

    I can see Sky Lynx will be boxed in vehicle mode but when you transform them into robot mode, the size will be bigger than Skyfire in robot mode
