    My hope is that they'll release the normal eject later on, either in SS86 or Legacy Core class

    Yea, Leader would probably be best if anything. Deluxe figure in the Voyager/Leader-sized armor

    My issue with Eject isn’t the fact that it isn’t toon accurate, but the durability of the clear plastic. I don’t have any but how are the Power Core Combiner Minicons holding up?

    You are right, never owned either G1 toys and just going by the pics and I couldn't tell that about Twincast. Still doesn't make sense for Twincast to be a retool of Soundblaster rather than just giving the Blaster mold a bigger deck.

    I'm okay with no preorders for Kingdom Blaster, since he will be coming in Legacy. But does that mean Legacy won't have preorders either Also, does that mean no preorders for Pipes & Slammer? I'm not understanding the reasoning here.

    I'm talking less about size for titan and more about the possibility they decide a proper fully articulated Thunderwing, who also is a pretender who can have a separate little Thunderwing inside him is too complicated for Commander and have to pull a Rodimus and put him at the higher price point with additional accessories (including an obligatory green matrix)
    The height I'd personally want for him is around old leader/MP Optimus scaling about, since that's probably the size they'd make a potential Powermaster Optimus and I'd want them to be about the same size.

    It\'s cool to see Blaster is going to be packed with a minifigure that turns into a Shattered Glass figure

    That Blaster looks to be a remold of Silverbolt.

    Oh, that's really weird... I assume that they may just re-release Blaster in Legacy? It isn't uncanny for one figure to show up in the next line. Happened with Astrotraina and Optimus, plus Eject seems weirdly suited for the Energon gimmick Legacy is going for.

    Thanks but no thanks, I’d rather track down Titans Return Blaster

    Blasters blaster makes sense! :D 
    I read the Marvel comics a lot back in the day though and Blaster went on and on about his electro scrambler when he was in it so it stuck.

    Tbh my top choice for him would just be a largeish Leader figure with no Pretender/armor gimmick that's inspired by his Stormbringer design. But I know a lot of people would want to retain the gimmick so I'd be fine with him as a Commander as long as the emphasis is more on complexity and bulk so that he doesn't end up too huge.
