    I'm betting that any new G1 updates will mostly consist of the later years of G1 like the Victory and Euro cast, along with revisiting G2 characters that need them like for example us getting a new G2 Laser Optimus Prime that's more definitive to the original toy then the last few attempts. I doubt we'd see the 84-87 characters being revisited anytime soon since well we've see them be giving the most definitive updates in the WFC right now. When you think about it,Kingdom looks to be a turning point for Generations if not the entire brand as a whole.

    Pixelmaster said the next titan is somewhere on the box, another who I forget but mentioned the ratchet lifeline 2 pack ahead of time said their source claimed the robot in background is the titan. They probably didn't want to reveal who it is but instead what'd to give a clue, so Airwave's design and the next titan probably have something in common

    Didn't Apollux say the titan would be "hard to pass on for G1 fans" or something? that would kick Tidal Wave out easily.

    I was looking at old post and Pixelmaster claims their leaker insisted that the character wasn't Airwave

    Well, it's Airwave on the box in robot mode.
    Probably because they share similar DNA, Airwave being a modulator and Fasttrack being a weaponizer.

    That would be awesome. I would adore that. But as non-SS Generations is presented right now, it seems like the opposite of this(particularly, "Alternate Universe Optimus Prime" and the SGs suggesting that the rest share a universe)

    That's what I loved about Alternity.

    Shockwaves jumping universes? Cause we do know shockwave g1 is acting as sg longarm in the sg universe. And since you're referencing optimus together, I assuming you're referencing transtech? Cause that was pretty cool

    im not disagreeinng that the design they used is airwave's( although we could also say its equally likely to be hothouse). the 2 examples i can think of that are similar is hounds boxart head teasing hotshot despite being hound or trailbeaker on the side of each box of er teasing he was coming despite just being art of an older trailbreaker figure

    In previous years Hasbro showed some hints for the next titan in the previous shows before the New York Toy Fair, but the toy fair was delayed

    Who knows, perhaps they do a full reveal (or at least unpainted prototype) this time

    Maybe transtech could find its way in, but mostly a focus on lines that got more physical representation. Hell, trying to avoid most of the bayverse, because well... yeah. But did have a concept of G1 Starscreams ghost finding it's way to Movie Starscream's corpse and reformatting it to his new body.

    I think the fallen fits in. Especially since he seemed to have hopped into sg. And nexus prime whom also jumps universes, alongside aquarius. And classics dephcharge cause he jumped into the sg universe. And alpha Trion sg, who also jumps universes. Wow, a lot of universe jumping involves sg

    Well Shattered Glass was originally envisioned as a Star Trek type mirror universe with Classics Cliffjumper crossing dimensions into their universe, so universe jumping is kind of an integral part of the idea from the start

    So question: how far are the waves spread apart? How many months exactly till we get the next wave?

    Yeah, I’d hope/expect baring more unforeseen circumstances next year gets back to a more standard release schedule.

    Yh, thanks to Hot Rod everyone's hanging out there while this place goes to sleep mode until next Weekend.

    Might be a good chance to pop in my thoughts about Cheetor again, since no one replied:

    Why is the crotch plate articulated? It doesn't make room for articulation (apparently?) And it's not involved in transformation

    Is the cheetah head articulated or not? Looks like a swivel at the neck but he's always just looking straight ahead and no one mentioned so far

    So we have 6 days left till the TF half of the Hasbro Pulse Con on the 26th. Will anything else be leaked before then?

    I'm just going to guess will get a clear image of Paleotrex's robot mode and that'll be it. I have mixed feelings about getting any more leaks this close to an official release. I don't want to spoil the hype/excitement you know? But at the same time I want to know. I want to see the Fossilizers and the new Beast Wars figures.

    A lot of what I want to see are either Core (Fossilizers) or Deluxes (Scorponok, Waspinator, Airazor, Ractonite, Wingfinger). However it appears we got all the Wave 1 Deluxes. Which only leaves Core and I want a new Predacon to add to my platoon.

    btw where do I go if I want to sell some transformers? Is there a place to post that? There on craigslist not eBay
