    After that blue dragon and Magnus, they haven't announced the next one yet. Still many left to put out from last year's wave

    How sucky are those shapeshift inc figures? They certainly go perfect with IF considering those designs are in the comics.

    Yeah I can’t find these old bots for sale anywhere either. Might be a moot point whether they’re good bots.

    oh dang...i didnt know you were looking for a set. there have been a few that have popped up on the bookface since october.

    i always just look past them personally. i think the ironhides might be interesting or at least his guns. but nothing has ever made me want to jump on them.

    Really? You saw them in the legends bst group or somewhere else?

    Edit: I passed them over too til I read Robots in Disguise last month and saw them. I hadn’t realized that those weren’t only video game designs.

    They're pretty nice overall. Heavily painted, but the paint is not that durable.
    Heightwise, their Starscream is slightly shorter than an IF Starscream.
    I think Shapeshift would've gotten better if he continued.

    Sad we didn't get the other Seekers, the Combaticons, or Optimus that they teased/designed.

    My bet's on either Galvatron or Soundwave.

    The core cast is sorely needed from Iron Factory. I really hope that’s the next line-up we get from them. The Ratchets, Hot Rods, Blasters, Chromedomes, and Rewinds...

    A new Prime would be welcome. Wouldn’t mind one with a trailer from them.

    Toss in Ravage and Ratbat with some alternate modes to match whatever they have planned for Rumble and Frenzy.

    Also, we need an Autobot combiner team. Technobots would be out of this world with their design.

    Well with the planned 2021-2022 wave I'm forced to take an IF breather. I don't have room for those cool samurai

    I can't say I would for the fembots, but im personally crossing fingers for a Fort max. Especially if it encourages them to do a redo of overlord, or a repaint of acorponok as the energon to get the mold out again

    Well ultra magnus wasn't bad, but his redo was pretty damn good. Granted, its his maximus body, but my point is a overlord redone by modern if might be a lot better or just good

    also considering how hard or expensive it can be to get old if figures, id take a redo or rerelease of almost any of their figures just to be able to get them at a reasonable price
