    T30 Skids did not come out in 2009

    I'm done with Homages and repaints. I'll only accept dedicated molds at this point. Especially when every major G1 Character has 2-3 molds.

    I'd take a couple repaints to fill out the CDF in the same aesthetic but other than that, yeah. Getting frustrating

    So you have a sense of 2022's theme?

    Unsure on timings - would normally be NYTF but that was shifted from Feb to May so who knows might be another large Pulse event?

    Not really, my source has become somewhat Catz like recently. Combo of him now working directly for Hasbro, and 2022 being a TF Movie year.

    Do we have any indication about whether the next subline will be one of a trilogy or not? I really hope it isn't, the trilogy format feels far more limiting and with too many expectations to be fresh year after year at the risk of cherrypicking who gets made when and with what gimmick or theme (Cybertronian Hound, Mirage, and Sideswipe come to mind. No they aren't Earthly enough for me to like them beside Wheeljack or Ironhide or Sunstreaker)

    I mean, the next line should be obvious to everyone.

    A whole year of nothing but Beast Wars mutants.

    I just really hope they don't abandon the style/aesthetic they've created for WFC and SS86. As long as they keep with it, and keep retooling and repainting old molds when appropriate, the next line(s) will hopefully fill in those missing gaps, but I'm worried that if they start over with a new style that won't be possible.

    I've heard rumors of a Leader Class Helicopter Megatron in 2022 but one rumor of a figure that might sorta maybe kind of be a reference to Animated does not a theme make.

    Silly question: Don't we already know the whole lineup for Kingdom? If so, what's the purpose of this thread? If not, what are we missing?

    we don't know the exclusives or selects

    heck, there could be Kingdom stuff retooled into Crossovers figures. Personally, I think a KITT and KARR from Tracks would be kickaft.

    I think there was a rumor of Kingdom Blackarachnia getting an Animated redeco somewhere? Could be a Selects release next year or pure guesswork.

    I could see a mixed release type with G1-ized Animated designs for the anniversary flanked by remaining G1 redoes WFC didn't get around to. Roadbuster and Whirl, Omnibots, Gears. Blitzwing fits both.

    The most we know is a handful of Selects releases thanks to the 4chan leak that Catz confirmed.
    Artfire, Transmutate, and toy Galvatron are the only ones that really stand out, I believe. To me, at least. We're in the dark about two packs or repaints like the seeker sets and prowl/Ironhide from ER

    On the subject of reputable rumors, I think one of the sites Hasbro sent Kingdom wave 1 to mentioned the Hasbro rep teasing Cyclonus with reversed purple and lavender getting released outside of the core retail assortment somewhere as Cyclonus' Armada?
