    LioKaiser for certain. Defensor or Computron would be nice as well.

    If they made everyone the limbs deluxes and Razorclaw a leader that would be $25x4+$55 = $155. Not really any cheaper than the original set.

    As many others have said. the next mainline Combiner is Dinoking. But after that? I feel like Liokaiser is a strong titan contender in 2024-onward. Star Saber and Deathsaurus were wildly successful, and Liokaiser's CW release was just a box set of exclusive repaints. It's an alright stand-in but it hardly feels like the definitive version of the character.

    Hasbro's gonna go where the money is. And surprisingly, that seems to be where the money is.

    A) no and B) it's "soft-confirmed" by both Mark and Evan as reusing Legacy Volcanicus' tooling.

    it's a toss up between devastator, bruticus and liokaiser.

    bruticus devastator for obvious reasons, they are the most popular of the G1 combiners, and devastator can be in SS86.
    liokaiser mainly because iirc more than a few members of the TF team have expressed their desire to design him, though they're unsure of here he could fit, in mainline or haslab

    Yeah, I’m hoping that the Constructicons come into SS86 to replace the dinobots. But I hope we don’t have to wait 4 years from them.

    I'd actually like to see a new Rail Racer as much as anybody else.

    Any combiner that isn't the following:

    Superion
    G1 Bruticus (FOC I will allow)
    Defensor
    Devastator
    Computron
    Abominus
    Predaking
    God Neptune
    Piranhacon

    These all can take a backseat for now.
    Let's instead get:

    Bruticus Max
    Constructicon Max
    Landcross
    Landfill
    Nexus Prime!
    Omega Prime bros
    Raiden
    Rail Racer
    Road Caesar
    Superion Max

    You know what would be nice?

    A completely new combiner team instead of remaking old toys. Show us what we can get when we're not slaves to nostalgia.

    And I'd like to see the numbers on them change up some. 3 bot teams, 6 bot teams where the 6th isn't ornamental. 4 bot. Just something different than 4 deluxes with a larger bot for the torso.
