    After a good night's sleep I have to my senses and realized - with this being a BBTS 'reveal' (similar to the Burning Convoy one) - that of course it cannot be a new mold. So I'll join the 'good news for my wallet' posters.

    It's 99.99% certain that it's a repaint and not a new mould... I'm only really interested in it to see whether it comes with a trailer/all the accessories and how much of a price reduction that results in. That would set a precedent for any future trailer-less release that 'might' feature a deco I'd be more interested in.

    I'm hoping it will be a repaint but cheaper because of less accessories and simpler paint scheme. More around the 250~300 range. I couldn't justify spending on the original and I'm glad as I ended up getting more pieces that I wanted, but if they could get this one under 300 I'll bite.

    The only thing certain about this is it will show up in next year's Black Friday.

    Yeah, I have a feeling it’ll be G1 Nemesis Prime.

    I’m right there with you. I’ll get this if the price is right. For me, that means less than $200. If not, it will be the first official MP in the main numbering sequence since Grimlock that I won’t be getting. And it will bug me to death that I’ll have all of them except 50.

    Underrated post.

    No, don’t do this. The tone and meaning of the above post is crystal clear on its face.

    BW-50 is probably another Optimus. Still plenty of OPs left.

    Galvatron? Who dat?

    In the MP line black convoy 10-b was a Herald of Unicron, actually makes sense with Unicron in 2021......maybe 50 is Galvatron or Rodimus

    We already got a Hot Rod that turned into Rodimus and a Hot Rod that stayed Hot Rod.

    If MP-50 is another Hot Rod, it might be one that turns into Rodimus, minus the hiccups MP-09 had. If it’s Galvatron, then I don’t know. :p

    With all due respect, point me to one single time that any two releases related to each other in that way

    I'm going to say never, but then again Unicron is going to be a pretty big event. Why not capitalize on it with some movie MPs. Galvatron is long due and Rodimus has been long due for a remake

    Imagine if MP-50 was Energon Ironhide.
