Good ideas maybe in Earthrise or the part 3.

 

Multiforce with the POTP Duocon connection port is a great idea.

 

Now that I think about the overload of Bumblebee figures that Hasbro has put out, I really hope they don't put him in there 

 

I agree on giving Getaway a new figure but less Chromedome, and a Battle Master for an engine block ala Apeface's Headmaster.

I totally blame the 5mm ports for that. And yeah, I think giving them a close to G1 aesthetic can help improve their designs.

What more can I say? We've been wishing for it to happen since that Chinese leak back in 2017.

There might be a narrow chance of getting Bee in WFC, and I believe we've seen so many yellow in ages. Maybe Hot Shot for a change?

 

Wait what leaks?

 

We just got a Selects Hot Shot, but unless you're thinking of the....ARMADA Hot Shot, probably a whole new version of him

 

Yeah, not enough buzz, he'll never get a Marvel legends release just like Spymaster, White Rabbit, Boom-Boom, Strong Guy, and Typhoid Mary.

He also just had a mini-series. I could see a Marvel Legends Death head and an Earthrise Lockdown. It would be funny to see them on the toy shelf together.

 

Before Power of the Primes was announced, we got some leaked list of upcoming figures. Deathsaurus, some of the beast pretenders, and yes, Landcross was mentioned, but after 2 years we never seen them coming.

Either the Armada and Energon version will do. The former can have a Micromaster playing as a Minicon, while the latter can be a pretool of Multiforce Dash.

 

Now i understand. Thanks. 

 

My pleasure.

 

So an idea I had yesterday... given the oddness of the three Autobots we saw with Cybertronian modes not having had toys yet based on those modes, I'm now speculating that perhaps at the end of the trilogy they'll do some box sets like they did with Prime Wars calling back to each part of the trilogy and that perhaps they'll do a 'More Than Meets the Eye' pack with Cybertronian Bumblebee with his saucer mode as a new mold and then a retooling of ER Wheeljack (or other suitable mold) as Cybertronian Wheeljack and then a Cybertronian retool of a hypothetical ER Jazz toy as the 40k Landspeederish mode he had.

Granted I would like not to have to wait so long to get them, but I do wonder if that might be how they'll do it... for bonus points it could come with a stack of Energon Cubes which can be stowed in Wheeljack  

 

That's actually a great idea!

 

Thanks  

 

They were at least ready to do Wheeljack in Siege but I don’t think it’s fundamentally unreasonable to think PERHAPS that a part of the CHUG lineup after WFC will be essentially “Cartoon Studio Series” and that Cybertronian modes from the cartoon would be used there (and would help offset licensing costs for waves).

Look at the output they had in 2019. I think the only way to sustain or grow that is probably something like SS with retools of fairly recent figures.

That could also be a decent hedge move if the trilogy after WFC is Beast Wars based. Wouldn’t shock me to see them do that at 3 waves a year as the main line and cycle out smaller, pricier waves (20% higher or so) of G1 retools of WFC figs with licensed vehicle and Cybertronian modes.

 

I loved the Prime Wars boxed sets. If they're even a fraction as awesome, I say bring them on. \o/

 

Now that we got a new Wheeljack I hope we'll get Slicer in Generations Selects. It's an easy way to get at least one Action Master already.

 

Speaking of Action Masters, I guess for those, we can expect these as small figures that interact with others in the system. They would have high range of articulations as they were marketed back then to compare with Transformers.

 

A Cartoon Studio Series line would be cool, especially if they would draw from potentially ALL Transformer cartoons. For example I'd love to see figures with modern engineering and Transformers Prime Aesthetics. Both because finding TFP figures now is quite hard/expensive but also some characters never got particularly show accurate toys.

 

I think it be great to see some of the recent new bots from the modern animated shows turn up in war for cybertron. Kind of like generations being an anthology brand but retelling g1 with new transformers. They've already done it with the likes of Barricade, Impactor and Rung. So would be great to see the likes of Shadow Striker, Slipstream and Strongarm show up. Would also help pad out the male / female bot ratio.

*i know technically some of those bots share names with g1 bots but they are basically new characters.

 

actionmasters is one gimmick i dont see hasbro revisiting. modern transformers proves they can do high articulation without sacrificing the transforming and hasbro isnt in the business of releasing transformers branded figures that dont transform
