    Would anyone else like to see an Earth mode Barricade Based on the Datsun or Runamuk molds? Besides Ultra Magnus and Skywarp, Barricade is probably my biggest want as far as not announced Earthrise bots.

    If they did do a ER Barricade, I'd image he'd likely be a repaint of the ER Smokescreen, much like the Siege variant.

    SILENCE! I have the power of Shrek and anime on my side! I am always right. The only thing they have to do with Tracks is rotate the legs, reshel the car mode and change the head.
    Also I agree on Overdrive being retooled from Smokey(or Jazz).
    Edit: Tracks also has an attack mode

    Smokescreen. Alt mode is spot on. Bot mode too except for the problem that the rear of the car wouldn't form the robot chest.

    We likely would've received info on if there was a wave 4 but with this God awful virus plaguing everything it's not likely we'll even receive an SDCC to promote it...

    I have not plans on buying that ER Megatron but a retooled Straxus would do that silly sword some justice by making it an ax.

    Dear Hasbro please give me these repaints to buy in the selects line. Maybe make it a two pack. Use the spectacular Cliffjumper mold for TapOut and whatever the future Bumblebee mold is for Glyph, maybe even give her the toy face. Pleaseeee....

    Wish we could get a Glyph and Tap-Out that actually looked like those Jack Laurence designs :l

    Regardless, they would be cool to get as Selects offerings or something.

    The gray ears on Tapout is a nice touch also if they molded the shins the same color as the feet that really bring it together...if they did a tapout repaint.


    They are

    [contraversal] it's nice to see a hetero couple in a Transformers comic.

    I came up with a top 5 wants for future Earthrise bots. Here goes...
    1.) Ultra Magnus
    2.) Skywarp/Thundercracker (although rumored to be an upcoming seeker 2 pack)
    3.) Tracks
    4.)Motormaster
    5.)Barricade

    Yes yes yes to this. Are there actually people who wanna go back disjointed collections that don't represent the character relationships and in some cases the characters themselves?

    Hey you, scale nut. isn't blaster taller than soundy mc wave in the cartoon meaning that blaster cannot be a retool from sounderwave because "no fit scale chart"?

    I’m pretty sure cartoon-wise they were the same height. Obviously they were different sizes in the original figures. We’re going by toon-scale so a Siege retool of SW into Blaster would be fine.

    I know repaints etc are inevitable etc but why when people do want lists have pretty much all the characters we got in siege just slightly retooled be be earth modes. Most of them ie Sideswipe and the datsun bros werent overly cybertronian anyway. I understand the seekers but do we need all of them again! The coneheads are a given and Starscream but the others??

    We need new blood damn it.

    as far as the datsuns and seekers (at least thundercracker and skywarp) go, yes they are needed. personally i wasnt much of a fan of the siege versions of either. the chest is too short on the siege datsuns and their proportions overall look kind of weird. vehicle mode i was ok with but the earthrise bot mode is a lot better, and siege starscream is damn near the perfect seeker. sure, he lacks some of the articulation that siege had, but its a trade off of not wearing his entire vehicle mode on his back. also with over 70 individual numbered figures released last year during siege and selects there is more than enough room for a couple of repaints
