Banzai-Tron is intriguing, as is "Axor," who I presume will be an homage to Action Masters Axer, one of my old favorites as a kid. Voyager Strafe and Lugnut are also interesting, and I bet Voyager Grapple will be a Universe Inferno remold/redeco. I also hope very, very much that the Voyager Fallen is a new mold...one that is actually movie-accurate.


Edit: come to think of it, Banzai-Tron might be a Bludgeon repaint. I remember mentioning in a thread a while back that Banzai-Tron would be the only logical repaint of that mold.

 

Banzai-tron! Awesome!

 

I hope Banzai-tron is a repaint of Bludgeon...

 

Banzai-tron yes.

 

I really hope Grapple is an Inferno retool.

So based on past experience, when can we expect to see these?

 

I was hoping for a new mold but this sounds more likely.

 

Here's hoping for a new Fallen mold, however insanely unlikely that is.

 

looks like good stuff.

new lugnut? sign me the fuck up for that.

 

I SEE LUGNUT! 

 

Banzai-Tron certainly sounds interesting, but I'm actually more interested in Lugnut. Could it be we're getting a movieverse style Animated Lugnut?  

And the name Oil Pan was mentioned somewhere, it's in the TFW Resources, but I think this is the first we've heard anything about it in terms of class.

EDIT: Yeah, Oil Pan was mentioned on Scout Backfire's BIO. So we know he's a Scout now.

 

I think we are all ignoring the fact that Lugnut might get a movieverse mold!

 

there's four replies above you in this currently very small thread addressing lugnut.

 

LUGNUT. YES. YES. YES.

Will be buying him on-sight.

 

Really crossing my fingers for Grapple as an Inferno repaint.

 

I think we are ignoring his ignoring all but the first post!  

I do wanna see new Lugnut though. Expect a whole new wave of "Shoulda been leader class!" petitions.  

 

Hasbro said at Toy Fair that the Hunt for the Decepticons promotion wasn't going to start until fall, and since stuff like Breacher and Hailstorm are Wave 2 of the HftD line, I imagine the other new stuff is at least Wave 2...which puts it at mid-to-late fall.

 

LUGNUT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

And could Strafe be a repaint of Stratosphere?

edit: Or perhaps Lugnut is a purple Decepticon repaint of Stratosphere? The alt-mode could work for him and the mini-Optimus could easily be describe on the box text as being his prisoner.

I like seeing new TF names and Sunspot, Tomahawk, and Firetrap sound cool. Here's hoping they're a mix of new molds and nify repaints we haven't gotten yet.

I really want The Fallen listed not to be a repaint of the movie mold or a newer, movie-accurate representation, but a new mold that's the DW version in all its burning furnace glory.

 

Crap. After Toy Fair, I thought I had all of my purchases picked out... I'm happy with Botcon Banzai-Tron as my Classics version. If Grapple is Inferno's mold, he'll be mine. I wonder what mold they'll use for Axor if he's a G1 homage...

Are we even sure these are all ROTF?
