Ok I was (half) joking about the core class thing but this actually a good idea

 

I've been thinking about how slow Studio series has been with releases this year. Mostly because the latest Deluxe waves only contain 2 new figures.

wave1
Bumblebee
Airazor

wave2
WFC Bumblebee
WFC Barricade

and soon wave 3 will only contain WFC Cliffjumper and Brawn.

If most of what we expect is not till wave 4, that seems just sucks.

 

Most of the stuff for ROTB and 86 Ratchet is wave 4. Wave 3's Brawn, Cliff, and a ROTB Bee pr, Voyager WFC Megs, ROTB Rhinox.

 

I was mostly referring to the deluxes. I did mention what's in wave 3. I w as just pointing that the current 3 waves of deluxes just seem slow because each containing 2 new Deluxes.

 

Speaking of which, we should see Brawn and WFC Cliff soon ? When is wave 3 releasing anyway, like end of summer ?

 

May.

 

I think he means released at retail.

 

He was asking both, but for release date who knows. Probably August-ish. But whatever they say subtract 3 months and your probably on point for the actual release.

 

If there really is a wave budget (there 99.99% is) it makes sense, since the past few waves for Studio Series have only had two deluxes, which (IMO) have been better quality, so I’m hoping SS86 Brawn is of similar quality to the likes of TLK Hotrod and Crosshairs, and ROTB Bumblebee and Airrazor.

 

There definitely is and true this can help also budget wise if you collect all of SS can help.

 

Buzzworthy really needs to pick up the slack imo.
I'll take an exclusive movieverse release if it means we don't have to wait a year for the same figure to squeeze into a spot between two cartoon characters. I mean I can see how it might benefit them to stretch out the line by adding video game characters and the rest of the 86 guys but by the time we get a SS Que or Aoe Hound they'll have to go through and update all the previous releases to match with engineering of future figures like what needs to be done with Lockdown, Bayverse Starscream and Bayverse Ratchet!
Yeah I know, hell hath no fury like a ranting fan xd.

Offscreen Studio Series Subline when Hasbro?  Please? 

 

So have they confirmed that Crescent is actually Freezer?

 

Crescent was Skullcruncher

 

wave 4 is rumored (according to leaks) to be Nightbird and Mirage....so yeah another 2 new deluxes

 

Wheeljack might be in that wave.

 

Well all of the leaks for 2023 have been correct so far. according to the leaks Wheeljack IS NOT in wave 4, at this point only @Jtprime17 would know

 

chances are wheeljack is coming in 2024, iirc we've only seen either the first and maybe second wave of 2024 SS listings so far

 

I wouldn’t be suprised at this point if he was 2024 now yeah.

 

it's Pablover
