    We've barely seen anything of Lugnut, certainly not any good pictures.

    Strafe we've heard before, but I believe Solar Storm is new.

    REALLY!? That soon!? I'm betting Solar Storm's a repaint of Mindwipe to go with Sun Spot.

    At first, with no comma, Solar Storm Grapple sounded like it was a prefix... though a very odd one... I think reissue Grapple was called "Autobot Grapple" so a prefix shouldn't be surprising. However the notion of Solar Storm as a repaint of Mindwipe to go along with Sunspot sounds more likely.

    Strafe.... I thought we had heard that name rumored before. Seems likely a repaint of a voyager aircraft, so either ROTF voyager Starscream or Stratosphere in mostly white?

    Grapple is remolded with a crane arm in place of the water cannon and new feet and I think a new head and maybe a few other new parts... probably whatever was on the same sprue as the water cannon, so any black plastic part on Inferno might have new tooling.

    Yes it is.

    And I also would like to know if Solar Storm is supposed to be separate or attached to Grapple's name as a prefix. Because there was no mention of a new prefix on his card at CyberCon
