Ooh a Oil Slick would be dope.

 

I would say the odds of either Axelgrease or Strongarm being a Scraphook redeco are pretty much zero. While modulators do end up getting plenty of redecos, the redecos never end up is the mass retail line up. They are always Gen Selects or a store exclusive.

 

No.

 

If it's IDW version (where he gets killed by Megatron) I agree. Then he should be SS86 Wreck-Gar retool.
If it's more classic-based he should be a Deluxe since he was same height of Crasher.

I'm hoping Axelgrease is a Scraphook retool. Scraphook mold needs to be utilised more, if I'm being honest here. Instead of another bike I'd like another offroad vehicle, I don't see why Junkions must be restricted to bikes. If not he probably shares parts with Scraphook.

Alternately some have suggested it's Shadow Striker retooled from the Legacy Knockout mold. Which I wouldn't really mind.

 

Yes.

Eh, I don't expect them to follow the classic Gobots scale considering that they're very different from how they appeared in the show already.

And Cy-Kill needs to be able to fight Megatron face to face.

 

Yet he couldn't even stand a chance against Megatron.

But I do agree if he's based on IDW design definitely needs to be Voyager.

 

Cy-Kill as a modulator would be perfect because you can simulate Megatron tearing him apart.

 

Some have speculated that the Voyager Junkion is a new mold bike Junkion done in the style of SS86 Junkions but also a modulator.
Which would be cool, but that would sadly mean Lockdown might be compromised since that speculation means the Lockdown pretool will be a Deluxe.

 

That comic was awful in a lot of ways and that panel perfectly exemplifies that. Is pretty much: "lol Gobots are lame and totally not cool as Transformers, wouldn't it be funny if Megatron humilliated and killed Cy-Kill?".

 

It’s tradition.

 

I find it funny how Starscream was created from the mix of Leader-1 and Cy-Kill's corpses. In fact the comic implies that the GoBots were the ancestor of Transformers.

Also I like how Leader-1 has a skeleton in him.

 

Eh, most of them were cameos and jokes.

Megatron Origin just went too heavyhanded about it and is not much of a surprise considering how awful the writing was.

 

Honestly If it wasn’t for that appearance I probably wouldn’t have know who Cy-Kill was.

 

Bad introduction then.

 

Why haven't we gotten a redeco of Treds from Warpath and Pathfinder from Cosmos?

We had Bug Bite, Road Ranger already so where's Treds and Pathfinder?? I can understand the absence of Small Foot and Bad Boy since they don't have molds for them yet.

 

Ahh, is Shadow Striker Wave 3? I thought it was Beachcomber, Axelgrease & Devcon, but then again Pipeline reveals don’t necessarily have to show the whole of Wave 3. Yes that’s definitely a possibility then, though I also think Shadow Striker could be an extensive remold of the Elita-One / Nightbeat mold

 

Yup, Shadow Striker's part of Wave 3. The pipeline reveals are meant to be mixes of stuff in future waves, Beachcomber and Devcon are part of Wave 4 while Axelgrease is Wave 3.

 

Ahh, that’s it thanks! I’m not familiar with Pipeline reveals from other Hasbro lines, and while I know who’s in Waves 3-4 I hadn’t seen the Wave Breakdowns yet, pretty pleased as that increases the chances of Axelgrease being a new mold now!

 

Well if you wish to see the breakdown for waves 3 & 4, here ya go:

I left out Commander & Titan, they be revealed in April likely alongside Wave 3 don't worry.
