    I think we might also get some sword slash effects.

    That would absolutely suck for those of us who don't own the Legends heads if you're suggesting headless transtectors as a stretch goal.

    Not to mention prices for said Titanmaster heads would go through the roof.

    -SS (and highly unlikely given both the price and that several Juniors have already been leaked for Legacy)

    I mean I do own and was lowkey but I know that isn't possible and would be better just hitting retail instead with proper heads

    I preordered the whole SG line. Blurr just came today and I don't exactly have the cash to reallocate to Saber, even before Megs hits my wallet.

    Saber is fat chunky anyone who want to know articulation is on brainmaster here it is legs, elbow , shoulder, looking at picture and transformation video.,

    probably.

    Anyone really wondering what the other tiers are take a look at other haslab stuff and keep in mind that they’re just bonus perks and they’re stuff thats usually $20 and under items. Don’t expect deluxe class and up figures as a bonus. Already getting two full blown figures that are already on par with leader and/or commander class figures. You’re in it for victory saber. Not the tiers

    I think one will be holi and Jan, and the other will be either a stand or starsabers shield. Maybe both.

    I think Jan and holi should come first as they matter more

    Shield maybe for one? Other than that I don’t really know. I’d assume the 20 000 backer tier would be something important.

    If we don't get a to-scale skateboard to go with Star Saber from somewhere, I'll riot.

    Voyager Class Alpha Trion with Vector Sigma, Key, and 2 non-transforming green Centurion Drones at Commander Class price

    Commander Class Thunderwing

    Supreme Class Armada Tidal Wave (assuming it's not already in the works for the next trilogy, because it very well may be)

    Leader Class Bludgeon (A large, mostly hollow, fully-articulated, Leader-sized shell that a Deluxe-sized tank-bot can fit inside)

    a new combiner, done the way Menasor will be (with a Commander class leader and Deluxe limbs that will presumably be able to stand head-to-head with CW Devastator), sold as a Supreme class set... Let's say Defensor, since his CW version was so drastically different from his G1 figure. (Again, there's a chance this is already in the works for the next trilogy)

    Commander Class Nightbeat, Siren, and Hosehead 3-pack. Bonus points if they include Matrix Quest accessories. Alternatively, Commander Class Japanese version 3-pack to complement Super God Ginrai (Minerva, Gou Shuta, and whatever they call Hosehead over there)

    MP Kup

    MP Blurr

    Supreme Class Quintesson Pit set. Full-sized Kranix, prosecutor, bailiff, Quint scientist, and playset (sized to Deluxe toys) with jail cells and collapsing plank.

    Unicron's head Playset. A 2-foot tall (not including horns) head that splits and unfolds/transforms into a playset that Deluxe and Voyager figures can interact with, with a 'brain center' area, a smelting pit area, an 'immune system corridor' (with claws that come out the walls), and maybe a more techno-organic Armada homage part

    Supreme class Armada Unicron (for those who missed the OG Haslab or weren't down to pay $700, and also to bolster the oncoming Legacy UT figures)

    There. 11 things we actually don't have, but should, each of which is more high-profile than pretty much anything on your list, with no re-dos. (Technically Haslab Unicron isn't the same as the UT version, and the CW combiners aside from Devastator don't fit with the current aesthetic)

    Why Holi specifically, wasnt he on a team of Micros?

    I forsee the shield to round out his accessories for maybe Tier 2, tie it into the V-Lock Cannon from Tier 1, and for Tier 3, maybe extra effect parts and a small sword for Saber like the MP came with. I'd kill for a flight stand in there somewhere.

    Shield/flight stand would likely be pretty big for how hefty this would be.

    So have any photoshop mathematicians been able to work any voodoodoodoo on the images provided to determine an approximate height for Star Saber? I have Commander Class Jetfire and Deluxe Hound in front of me now and seems like Star Saber will be shorter than Jetfire, shorter than the MP. Its definitely NOT 5 inches or 8.5 inches tall though like some have been saying. I dont believe they've listed his ACTUAL height, most times those write ups use lingo like 5.5inch scale or 7.5in scale however that doesn't mean said figure is literally 5.5inch or 7.5in tall etc received_889853141915103.jpeg

    I'm not hating. Its still in the prototype stage so things could change. You guys know me, I like big bots and I can not lie.

    Plus there's the whole scale thing, they've done pretty well so far for the most part from WFC onward in toon based gen lines where scale is observed etc if you know what I mean(ie not exclusives, repaints, retools etx)
