    Ah didn’t account for the rest of ss lineup. It just feels like, if Jazz and Slag can get ‘86 releases surely Blaster will get released as well.

    I doubt that. You’d want the cassette repaints to be exclusives. What is possible though is that he will debut in the Netflix line.

    edit: unless you’re thinking he’ll be a SW retool. Uh, I hope not; similarities notwithstanding, that would be lame.

    Well I sincerely trust/hope they aren't going to do just do two of the Dinobots so there must be more planned.

    That mould was definitely designed for Blaster. I’m surprised they got it to work for Soundwave too at all.

    I'm sure the other three are queued up for next year, then. If we had to wait for the SS Constructicons spread over two years, we can do the same for the Dinobots.

    I had initially thought that Wheelie and Daniel would be fully functional figures, included with Grimlock and Slag to boost them up to Leader Class, while the other three could be slotted as Voyagers. But with the latest rumours that the extras are non-transforming static figures, that seems less possible. So we probably have to wait until the following year to complete them, probably with Snarl and Sludge as Leader, and Swoop as Voyager.

    I'm all over that Kup. I was only planning on getting Kup and Hotrod / Rodimus out of the movie bots, but if Blur looks this good I might be persuaded.

    The difference between G1 and BW also lies in the size of the cast. For BW/BM, you had a small cast, and most of the ones who were in need of remakes have already been remade.

    G1 had an absolutely massive cast (that is still expanding through WFC and the comics), and I still don't even have my first version of Monstructor, DinoKing, Road Caesar, or Deathsaurus.

    With BW, do we really need a new version of BW Scourge, Buzzsaw, Polar Claw, or other non-show characters? For me, I'd love to get a new version of Obsidian, one of my favorite characters on the show who had a tiny toy. And Botanica! She's waaay overdue for a figure.

    Yes, the non-show designs are criminally under-rated. A new Polar Claw would be badass, as well as a new Cybershark.

    so the exhaust pipes folded out to the side of the leg fold in somehow? Or do they hang out to the side like in the photo?
    (Apologies if you answered this already)

    The first movie in the franchise introduced Hot Rod, Kup and others. It released in 1986 ;)

    I'll admit, Survive definitely looks better, but I've never put together a Survive from two broken figures from my grandma. ;)
