    YES, THIS! That's what they should've done with all the Bumblebee movie characters to begin with!

    Has anyone noticed that almost all the voyagers and leaders of 2020 are Decepticons?

    If you count Sentinel as a bad guy, I'd say it's close.

    What? Nitro Zeus' mold looks nothing like Blitzwing's CGI model.

    Yet Hasbro only intended to make mostly Autobot toys back then.

    well now there not many autobots that would be voyager or leader and a whole lot of decepticon that fit the bill, though some are just repaints

    Imma go on a limb here and say Skipjack is probably code word for Overload. Even if it's a repaint I'd still get it for sure. Oh and as for the other listings I'm definitely turned up for that too!

    Overload is a Leader, not a voyager.

    What? Look at his legs they could easily remold that . Look at his wings they could easily retool that. And what????? Look at his chest that could easliy be retooled.

    Overload is confirmed Leader class, and Skipjack is an actual character. They typically don’t use existing TF names in product listings. (Especially when no one else has a code name in these listings)


    ...

    What?

    The legs look nothing alike, nor does the chest. Yeah the wings are in the same place, but the transformation is totally different. The cockpit ends up on the right arm on NZ, not the chest. The two designs have nothing in common.

    Considering that not a single Shatter figure is actually a Harrier, I refuse to get excited at all for the possibility of an F-4 Blitzwing until we see pics.

    He’ll most likely be a “close enough” jet of similar shape.

    If you retool the legs, wings and chest, and let’s assume a new head, aren’t you basically at the point where it’s a new figure?


    yes, absolutely. Honestly him and Skipjack are the only repaints I would care about.

    Not only that, you would have to retool the entire transformation so that his cockpit shows up on his chest and not his arm.
