    Got this guy in today and he’s gorgeous. Didn’t think we’d ever get the djd in the mainline but here we are. Hope we can get the rest of the team but that might be pushing it sadly.

    Got Leo Prime in today and he's great, I just kinda wish they had done something more like Perfect Effect or Iron Factory with his front beast legs or at least let them compress better against the back of his forearms, and I wish there was some sort of anchor point on his back for the lion back rather than it just kind of floating there.

    think about it like people going to look at art, even though they can't have it, doesn't mean they cant express their opinions, including their appreciation about it.

    also we can get our hands on it, just not at the moment, as these figures are, in fact, gonna be making their way to store shelves and into collections within due time.

    ? you can appreciate things without having them. I appreciate the 99% of toys in this brand that I don’t have.

    Further more I have Needlenose and he’s great. How is he not in my hands? Right now it appears to be very region based who has it.

    Helex and Tesaurus I don't think would have to be changed, could just call them Cybertronian construction/demolition vehicles. They're biggest hurdle is they'd probably need to be leaders.

    Vos I think they could get away with as a core/small deluxe. Essentially a taller Targetmaster.

    Kaon would definitely have to be changed, lol.

    If they do another core class Megatron, they should consider making him a gun.

    The design team has repeatedly stated that Megatron will never be a gun again (for the foreseeable future), at least from Hasbro.

    Perhaps something from Takara's end? At least on their end it seems a little less unlikely. They were able to produce that nifty water pistol with seemingly no issue.

    Definitely possible, they've also done the 2 MP Megatron figures, but I wouldn't expect anything in Generations scale since Takara hasn't done their own thing (aside from occasional "premium" repaints) for Generations in awhile.

    That will never happen. But I hope they give him a BETTER tank mode, or at least they give him a different altmode like a helicopter or plane for example.
