So, in the same vein as Tricranius from Ractonite. That would be cool.

 

I mean it's still possible to retool and borrow some parts as well

 

Well considering I’ve already got Springer, Impactor, and Rotorstorm, I wouldn’t be down to get them. The question is who are they going to put in and how good do they look?  

 

I might be able to partner with you on that depending on what the Wreckers turn out to be

 

Will Rack'n'Ruin be coming in one of these packs?

 

Why, yes. Yes they are. But not just "one" of these packs... Rack will be an "armorizer" that comes in an exclusive 2-pack next year, and Ruin (an identical figure just with 'the other arm missing instead') available as the Deluxe entry in a Pulse exclusive box set of 4 figures somewhere down the line.

 

I suppose, though we'll have to wait and see.

 

Alright, now this is interesting. I really want a Pyro in my collection, so this could be a very good thing if that's what the Bulkhead repaint is. I also need an Ironfist, so here's hoping he happens as well.

 

I’m really surprised (assuming this is accurate) they’re going with older versions of the Wreckers and not the ones appearing right now. Granted, this could be a year or more away, but it’ll be more fresh in people’s minds. Don’t get me wrong, I’d love to see newer toy versions of some of the classics, but I also want the new ones too.

 

There's Squadron X featuring Ferak - a Cyclonus repaint - Macabre - an easy Scourge repaint - and a few others, then in LSOTW there's Overlord and a few Predators. We could definitely use a new Overlord down the line and the Predators haven't had new toys since G1.

I think Pyro from Bulkhead is a real no-brainer so I'm fully expecting that - the positioning of his shield fanned out on his back in the promo shots is pure G1 Pyro for a start - but I have to admit that I wouldn't want to see Clench from Laser Prime unless they retool his shoulders so the truck fronts are facing forwards rather than upwards.

 

Where did you get this news?

 

Note the blue text in the original post, which is usually used to denote sarcasm or jokiness.

 

If Hasbro needs some ideas to quickly fill the gap that will be left by them maybe having to push the ROTB lines back a year, I've got a list of piss-easy repaints I'd be happy to give 'em... ;O)

 

I figured that since Rack'n'Ruin wouldn’t be sold separately.

 

What if I told you last time I heard anything about this they weren't there at all.

 

Please no, Drift would work so much better as a Pointblank remold.

 

Huh, that actually works better than I thought, just have to swing the shoulders around, add some more detail and you're good.

 

Yeah, it could work as a blend of his original Cybertronian and Earth mode designs. The shape of the car mode will probably lend itself better to his Cybertronian mode, but he'd have the windshield on his chest homaging his Earth robot mode. Or, on the other hand, they could make him from the Armada Blurr version of the mold, which will probably have a chest that's closer to Drift's Cybertronian design, assuming the theory about the torso flipping around for Blurr is correct. Honestly, if Blurr gets enough remolding to look pretty accurate in both modes, I'd be alright with Drift getting minimal remolding just for his head, weapons, and a little bit on his shoulders and legs, because Blurr already has the same 'anime mecha' vibe and I think his car mode in particular would really suit Drift. But of course this is all depending on what Pointblank actually looks like and how much remolding he gets for Blurr.

 

Wouldn't be very surprising. But would you be able to tell us generally what era you saw the most for this line the last time you heard?

 

Has anybody heard anything new about the studio series 86 Swoop and studio series 86?Sludge hitting next year?
