    The blue with the Autobot logo might suggest Twincast from Broadcast/Blaster -- wasn't the prior Twincast reissue an eHobby exclusive?

    I hope it is a minor repaint of a commonly available mold of a classics figure that vaguely represents a character so obscure even TFwiki only has a one sentence entry with no picture. Oh and I hope it costs at least $100 because that is what such a figure is worth to me.

    Hardhead with Optimus and Megatron titan masters? I'd probably get that.

    More likely the Megatron mold in blue with both Megatron and Optimus titanmasters.

    Hardhead has the shoulder gun, though.

    I'd love a Hauler from Classics Inferno most of all but like I said, that ship has sailed.

    Why do you think that is out of the question?

    Not to speak for flux convoy, but Hasbro and Takara tend to want to make exclusives with molds that are either currently in use or recently been used. FunPub talked a lot about that in terms of what the sub and botcon sets had in them. Add in that the two big gimmicks drawing in fans right now are TR and CW/UW, and using an old mold w/o compatibility w/either gimmick seems a bit unlikely.

    I do agree w/flux convoy, though, that Hauler would be great. He and Loudpedal (from RTS Tracks) are two of my bigger hopes for random exclusives (since they'd never hit retail)

    That's exactly it. They typically use molds that are in use. The Inferno mold is what, 6 or 7 years old by this point. It's unlikely.

    By these terms, I believe that Hauler out of MP Inferno is still a viable possibility. How would folks feel about that?

    AH! OK gotchya ;)  Yeah, good point if you want to be "logical" about it. (worth noting though, Deadlock was about the same age of mold)

    curious if hit ends up being something that compliments Convobat, something that honors e-Hobbey's lineage of Exclusives, or just something totally left field ala Convobat/Deadlock

    You've got a point about Deadlock. I forgot all about Shouki too. Hmm.
