    I feel like Mudflap and Skids aren't going to be made, entirely because they're honestly just so reviled. And so many of the TLK guys could either be rereleases of their original toys, like Hound or Crosshairs. And as much as we want it, we probably won't get another Crankcase.

    I also don't think Unicron will be made, either, because he was just... some horns.

    Other than what we know, I'd like to see Hatchet, Que and Hot Rod get made.

    But MP-44 is a third figure in a line that's spanned over 10 years.

    Guys... If characters who didn't have a lot of screen time get made characters like Shadow Raider, Crowbar, etc then I guarantee you that the twins will be made. I honestly don't think the twins are racist they are more stereotypical. What about the twins makes them racist? The way they look? The way they talk? I honestly don't get it is there anyone who takes serious offense to their portrayal in RoTF?

    Also, I'd like to see new molds for the TLK bots TLK voyager Hound isn't scaled properly if you put him next to SS Optimus and I honestly think they can do better on Crosshairs. SS is the line that tries to stay away from simply repainting and rereleasing old molds (aside from a few exceptions).

    Yeah, Unicron is definitely not happening.

    I think I have good news regarding SS Hatchet, I predict he will be a late 2021 release because he's directly mentioned in Mirage's product description on Hasbro Pulse.

    Good point, I missed that on my SS16 Ratchet. But at least it confirms that we are getting a SS Hatchet though I didn't doubt that Hasbro wouldn't make him I just find it interesting that it's taking them so long.

    Stereotypes in themselves are racist. They are stereotypes, which makes them racist. Like, in terms of 'black' Transformers, and just black characters in general, we need more characters like Jazz, who aren't offensive.

    Like, there's the line that always stuck with me in RotF, where they're shown the Cybertronian, and one of the Twins says "we don't know how to read". Like, friggin' really????!

    So only black people can't read? Isn't that in itself racist?

    How do we know that they're not meant to mirror some white hillbilly from the boonies??

    Besides, they said "we don't do much reading, not really". So in other words, they read, but choose not to.

    Why can't the twins just be fun characters for us to enjoy and laugh at?

    Doing the "doesn't that make YOU the racist" is such a poor comeback.

    And no, they're meant to be black stereotypes. One of them has a gold teeth for god's sake.

    Because black people aren't clowns meant to do things for our amusement.

    Tell me where in my response did I call you a racist my good sir.

    My point was that saying they're making fun of black of people just bcs they didn't read much is racist, bcs that's saying that only black people can't read.
    Bro.. I'm from Dominican Republic, and we have a bunch of people running around with gold and silver teeth... and I've seen white people here in the US with gold teeth. Soooo maybe diversify your horizons a little???
    And again where did I say any of this??

    Funny how you had no reaction to my statement about a white hillbilly from the boonies.... makes one wonder :rolleyes:

    Honestly I don't get why the Twins get called racist, but not Drift who's a literal yellow faced samurai.

    Just sayin, both should be just as outrageous but it seems like no one goes after the other ;)
