    So I wasn't the only one who thought that mold could double as Jazz! If that does end up being the case, it'd be neat if they could somehow retool the doors to somehow stow away in robot mode for folks who prefer wingless Jazz. Personally, I don't really have a preference, but it's nice to have options.

    Also, what are the chances of getting an Earth-mode Sideswipe? Sunstreaker's tempting, but I really don't want to get him without his brother. I passed on Siege, but even if I did get him, I'd kinda want the bros to match, and having one Cybertronian and one Earth would bother me...

    Pro tip: Carefully run a red Sharpie or other red felt tip marker of choice along the edges of the applied roof stickers to blend out the white of the cut edges

    Be extremely careful where and when you say this.

    My preference is for the Lambo bros to not have exactly the same car mode. The Cybertronian design can pass for an earth mode for me. I think I’ll be very happy pairing Sunstreaker with Siege Sideswipe in my display.

    Fair play, even without the faux roof he could pass a a fancy customised Lambo IMO.
    A very Automan-mobile vibe...

    I think this an unpopular choice but since we got Doubledealer and his powermasters.It has gotten me thinking,can we get a proper Powermasters Optimus Prime in this trilogy or in Earthrise.Not only they remake Prime but remake Darkwing and Dreadwind since those ones in POTP were ok but I think what they should do since Knok and Skar has pegs that can plug into Doubledealer and of course they turn into cassettes but my thoughts is they can remold them into powermasters engines.So pretty much if this is possible we could see Prime,Slapdash,Joyride,Getaway,Darkwing and Dreadwind.But if that the case Overlord as well could be remade since the TR one was pretty good.

    I agree. I want PM Prime to be Commander Class this time however. It's closer to Ginrai's relative scale to Wheeljack as well as PM Optimus in the commercial with the Pretenders and the Tommy Kennedy host segiments.

    If you look at past PM Primes, he usually has part of his cab covered up. This limits articulation. He also always lacks mass and parts count to fully disguise his trailer.

    For animation accuracy, the cab of the truck (a presumably Voyager Optimus/Ginrai) shouldn't form the full torso. Past PM Primes had a potbelly from using the truck as the whole torso. Whereas the animation model effectively has the bumper of the truck cab as the RIBCAGE of the combined mode with abs below that. This would allow for INSANELY MORE articulation.

    I was thinking where can micromasters go from here and I thought maybe the micromaster combiners as in Landcross from victory who also splits into 6 who in turn can form 3 other bots. That could cover a whole 2 waves in itself or warrent a boxset like the 10 piece repaints one siege got.

    Yeah!
    Jazz has a lot of repaint potential and I also would like it to be an independent mould. Add Ricochet to that too!
