    We still have waves 4 and 5 of kingdom that need to be revealed, so probably not until winter

    If we are getting Nightbeat, I hope that we get Minerva.

    Minerva is pretty much the only logical direct choice for a redeco/retool for Nightbeat, so I'd be surprised if we didn't get her.

    I'm still surprised we didn't get a repaint of Kingdom Warpath.

    (not related to quote)
    I have some simple wants in the toy department that is left some g2 characters like boss, trottlebots the last two target masters maybe even redo crosshairs, as for all the other series i completed them when they came out and i see them as a product of there era, but i was to young to buy up g1 and g2 toys and ive loved the updated versions of them

    The Earthrise version is alright, availability and the roof shield were the only issues I found with it. I know people were miffed about the feet but I didn't think it was a huge deal and there are kits to fix it if you don't like it.

    I hope Pulse gets the Ironhide and the Ratchet pack in soon so people can get their hands on it. I missed out on Ratchet and am kicking myself over it.

    Wouldn't Siren and Goshooter make for sense as mold shares?

    Do you guys think we will ever get an updated 2001 RID Optimus Prime Fire engine? I never had the original and it would be so cool to see him down in the new siege scale.

    Pretty much, yeah.

    Siren transforms backwards from Nightbeat. While I don’t doubt that they’d do it, it would take a feat of engineering to use the same figure.

    Hoping for Selects Treds at some point. Bugbite started it. Ranger is rumored. Let’s get a full set of those ehobby Gobits in modern toys.

    Yes. Mainline Siren. Selects Goshooter McGavin.

    Grain of salt of course, but when Wreckgar39 leaked those he said that Siren would be a Gen Selects release from the Nightbeat mold. So, if true, Hasbro is taking a step back impo.

    Feeling lucky today so here is my prediction for Legacy

    **WARNING THIS IS MY OWN SPECULATION FOR FUN, DO NOT TAKE THIS AS A RUMOR**

    Overall Story
    Follows on from war for Cybertron centred on the "legacy" left after the war. Hence the time. This is something Kingdom has foreshadowed with the Maximals time travelling back showing the impact of the war.

    Evolution
    • G1, BW and Prime
    • Set on earth with a time skip from kingdom a strange group of transformers arrive on the scene (prime). With a message about an impending evil and the beasts taking over (this leads into Prime Beast Hunters). More hints at a massive planet sized transformer.
    • Also goes more into the backstory of transformers and combines a story set on earth with more earth modes, such as Nightbeat, Nosehead, Siren and the Stunticons with older G1 bots from cybertron

    Legacy PT 2
    • G1 + JG1, BW, Prime and Armada
    • Introduces a mix of Pretender and Beast Hunters as the gimmick. The story being that pretender shells are used to combat the beasts in robot mode, similar to the APEX armor from Beast Hunters
    • Unicorn is revealed properly as the big bad of the trilogy, series ends with Unicorn destroying something big, maybe another planet or even Cybertron, with the last remaining transformers heading to earth

    Legacy PT 3 - Unicorn
    • G1 + Euro G1, BW, Armada, Cybertron
    • Introduces Unicorn Trilogy and Armada fully, similar to how the last part of WFC was the BW bomb. The story is the Unicorn Triology bots are both new Transformers from throughout the universe and re-evolved G1 bots to combat the threat of Unicorn

    Agreed. There's several repaints possible, including Treds, Treadshot, and Strika if they copy what they did with the previous Generations deluxe WP. I thought about buying a Kingdom WP and repainting it into a M.O.B.A.T.
    I gotta tell ya, if all the Warpaths and Arcees clogging up the Wal-Marts in my area go to clearance, I might custom a small force of "G1" Strika/Tankors and drones.

    I was talking about this with a few of my friends last night and I honestly wouldn't be surprised if Goshooter never happened and Siren's deco was either matching one or the other, leaving it up to Toyhax to create labels so you can have either character. OR they go the crazy route of splitting the difference and combining both decos. (ex. Red accents with a police badge)

    I'd honestly be surprised if this wasn't how Legacy would turn out, while I don't know too far into the future, this sort of makes sense so far.

    I hope that if Siren is selects, maybe Goshooter is the regular release version.
