    I don't think Megatron knows Dealer is a merc. His whole schtick is being a double-agent.

    I am waiting for the images of the leaked Generations Selects toys. I hope that we get them soon. I really want to see what part they remolded to turn the Airwave airport into the Hot House Firehouse. They replaced the hook for Ironworks with some gas pumps to make Greasepit. I have a feeling that the Air Traffic Control tower will be remolded into the tower seen at the back of this image.
    G1-toy_FireStation.jpg TF-WFC-E-Deluxe-Airwave.jpg
    I can see it.
    Meanwhile for Bug Bite, I have no idea who this is. I looked at the wiki and the only "Bug Bite" reference is to the Renegade GoBot. I guess considering the fact that he got 2 toys while the rest of the GoBots that got released in the G1 GoBots only got 1, I guess he could be the one getting a new toy. Personally, I think in the WFC Trilogy, they should release truly updated versions of Warpath, not Thrilling 30s Legends Megatron in cosplay, and Huffer, not CW Optimus Prime in cosplay. From there, they can release Pipes.
    I hope the rest of the G1 GoBots should get new toys. Perhaps a set of the rest of them. The new Warpath could be turned into Treds, the Combiner Wars Powerglide could become Bad Boy. Titans Return Cosmos into Path Finder. The new Huffer into Road Ranger. And Generations Gears/Thrilling 30s Swerve into Small Foot. This is just my idea.
    Heck, CHUG-scaled GoBots would really work well. That way, we can have an official Transformers X GoBots crossover. Imagine G1 Optimus Prime and Leader-1 versus G1 Megatron and Cykill. Imagine the discussions between the Autobots and the Guardians AND the discussions the Decepticons and the Renegades. I can imagine that either the Guardians would mistake Bumblebee for Bug Bite or the Decepticons would do vice versa. All that is needed is a business deal between the owner of the original molds BandaiNamco and Hasbro and TakaraTomy. The 3 businesses could trade toy building techniques to make Transformers toys that work around their gimmicks without sacrificing looks and Super Sentai toys getting more pose-ability. Then, they could update the original Machine Robo/GoBots toys, rerelease the GoBots original toys, and creating new GoBots comics. Considering that Hasbro is so large in the Western Market, it would allow for the Power Ranger toys to be better overall. Think about the fact that the creators of Super Sentai, Toei, first went to Marvel Comics with a business deal, who, after that deal went south, had their next business deal be with Hasbro for GI Joe. If Toei, the Super Sentai creators, BandaiNamco, the creators of the Super Sentai toys and the toys which would become the GoBots, TakaraTomy, the creators of the Transformers toys, and Hasbro, the Gateway to the West, all working together in a business deal web, a Transformers X Super Sentai crossover would be a MAJOR possibility.
    Ah, heck. This probably won't happen as the deal between Toei and Hasbro is starting to go/went south. But a man can dream, right?

    Surely this Runamuck design is ripe for a remould into a bunch of the Throttlebots?

    Sadly, i'm feeling down at the moment and thinking that with Warden moved on, we won't get any Throttlebots... or Sureshot, or Slapdash, or Firecons, or triggerbots/cons, or.... or... or.... :(

    In the numbering of the Earthrise Transformers, the currently missing IDs are WFC-E28 and WFC-E32. I can assume that WFC-E32 is most likely Earthrise Ratchet, due to the Siege Ratchet being numbered WFC-S34 and Siege Ironhide being WFC-S21. However, WFC-E28 is unknown to me. Most likely one of the other leaked figures.

    Ratchet is selects and most likely doesn't have an Earthrise #

    Bluestreak is likely e28 or e32

    The other remains unknown

    Can we talk how bizarre wave 4 is? My factory man knows nothing about it, and the leakers on this board has provided more information about next years offerings than this toyline.

    The other is probably that Autobot Clones 2-pack that was soft-confirmed.

    That's highly probable, but the lack of Walmart/ [insert store name] listings is just surreal too.

    The problem with that is, we also have significantly fewer exclusives for Earthrise than we did for Siege, so unless Earthrise had almost no exclusives until Wave 4 was "exclusived out", there's still a lot of releases unaccounted for.

    Gotta admit I wasn't expecting him to have "G3084" on his face as part of the deco, but bold choice, HasTak.

    Considering that we’re getting Thrust, Runabout, and most likely Bluestreak, that means 2 more slots for deluxes based on what is actually known. Who could they be, and what are the chances of seeing one more voyager next to Thrust?

    Well Bluestreak at least is pretty explicitly confirmed to be exclusive in some capacity and the other 2 have been mentioned as exclusives as well

    words really can barely describe how bad I find that Sunstreaker. Compared to so many of the characters in this series that just nail the look and/or feel of the character, he is just all around wrong in nearly every way. He looks so clunky compared to Sideswipe... Sunstreaker should never look clunky...
