    F*ck this. I'm tired of them redoing characters that already received good toys in Siege.

    Barricade barely counts as obscure anymore! Not to mention there's a possibility we get one out of the Earthrise mold too.

    I'm less inclined for those other three, since Hound and Mirage's older Classics figures still hold up, and slapping roof stickers on Sideswipe and Red Alert make them basically perfect Earth cars for me (I still use the FOC toy as my "Cybertronian" Swipe). But yes, collecting is indeed a sickness. Excuse me while I try to buy the eighth version of that damn tetrajet in the middle of a pandemic.

    What I want at this point is a cybertronian Sunstreaker!

    I wonder if Ironhide will be a new mold while Prowl is a extensive retool of Earthrise Smokescreen?

    Why would they repack the Battle Squad? I don't think we've seen a re-pack of any Micromasters yet and I certainly wouldn't care for a re-pack unless it was the two that form the Stealth Jet, I'd like more Combiners since I used to own the originals.

    I think I knkw what to do repaint siege ironhide into the diaclone black one and then get the reprolabels for autotrooper for siege prowl. Then I can justify getting the two pack

    Hmm, three two backs already, and another one indicated, I\'m wandering if any were meant to be exclusive for cancelled events?

    After WFC has concluded, we might not get much G1 for a while that isn't G1 reissues. They might acyually be pushed the Beast Era in a year ir two, so they're going hard G1 now. They might still release the odd new G1 figure, but just stick with whatever's new.

    So basically were also getting an Earthrise Bluestreak and Ratchet is what theyre indirectly saying. Basically the whole Seige line was a waste of time. The only thing we got out of it that was cartoon accurate was Reflector, some tetra jets, and a lamp post. Can we get an Earthrise Soundwave at least ?

    probably not. Cons have been for different decos not different characters in the recent past. Amazon itself had 3 for siege and target had 2 for multipacks so the trend is pretty close.

    yeah they really need to think of characters not from 1984 and make ones like Snapdragon, Runamuck, Arcee, doubledealer maybe some quintessons and their minions and who knows maybe bring back micromaster bases but as modular robots similar to the weaponizers from siege and maybe finish the titans and finally do scorponok. Yeah they need to get on the ball and think outside 1984

    Oh god yes because they’ve never done something like this before with releasing the same characters in the same continuity one after another before. It certainly didn’t happen with the Unicron trilogy where Hotshot, Megatron, Starscream, Optimus, Jetfire and others had a different toy for every part of that multipart story and line. Certainly didn’t do it for the movies or for Prime/RID
