    I'd say the misses right now (taking for granted the leaks being true...) would be...

    The Omnibots (yeah, no media, but available and promoted all through G1...probably the longest any figures were available!)

    Decepticon HM Jrs...with the leak that Hosehead, Nightbeat and Siren are coming Id be surprised if Squeezeplay, Fangry, and HorriBull aren't coming soon as well, at least I hope so...along with a Selects GoShooter / Minerva 2 pack)

    Targetmasters...we got Crosshairs, the Decepticon trio as well as 2/3 of the Decepticon double TMs...I hate unfinished teams...leaving Needlenose, Pointblank, Sureshot, Quickmix and Landfill if they decide T30 Scoop is still good enough.

    The Throttlebots seem perfect to finish in core class...I'd add the Triggerbots / Cons here as good value priced troops as well

    Someone showed a pic of Allicon done up as the Firecons and it works as an easy retool surprisingly well...

    Give us those and I'd be totally fine with closing the door on US G1 for a long time.

    Will Buzzworthy Bumblebee (Core-Class) be used as molds for Cliffjumper/Bumper/Glyph/Tap-out?

    Pointblank and Sureshot are indeed the biggest hole in my US G1 collection (with Steeljaw and Eject but the latter is en route so hopefully SJ too). Will always be dissapointed they weren't in TR. The day they get leaked/announced may be top 3 or 4 best days of my collecting hobby.

    Me too...Sureshot and Pointblank were the last US G1 figures I ever got (skipped Pretenders, Micromastees and Action Masters) before getting back into actual collecting with the Turbomasters and Predators and on into G2

    Umm, I don't think Generations Select Soundblaster comes with any mini-cassettes, does he?:

    Unless you need Soundblaster, the Walmart-exclusive Netflix Soundwave does come with Ravage and Laserbeak (assuming you can find them locally).

    That's a relief. Sorry if I missed it, but was there any word if Misfire and Slugslinger would be re-released too?

    yeah but seeing as the entire description has TBD i think that it's just a placeholder for a future figure

    Yup, as in the TR ones being in a new Retro Headmaster wave. Also the Decepticon Targetmasters will be showing up there as well but I have no idea if they'll be coming with their Targetmaster guns specifically.

    Great news for the Decepticons targetmasters ! Here’s just to hope they’re not Walmart exclusive this time. The headmasters were impossible to find for me. It was expensive to get the ones I wanted.

    Okay give me all those Deluxes plus a commander star Saber and I think I'm officially out of shelf space afterwards.

    Man I have a lot of these still lingering around central MO. Im stoked to possible be able to get misfire now. I'd basically written him off. Does anyone else find they prefer the later deceptions?

    Who knows at this point. With them moving Blaster (and Eject) up to wave 5 of Kingdom they could make a Spy Patrol back with Rewind, Ramhorn, Steeljaw, and Buzzsaw to go with them.

    BTW what size was SS86 Perceptor again? Deluxe or Voyager?
