    Double plot twist, the Jumpstarter we get is not the one that leaked

    I'm wondering how much of the box size is being dictated by the figures and how much by the Wrecker hammer display piece. Maybe the first two boxes are just excessively big for the hammer. I don't think it's overly hard to cram Springer into a smaller box, and the Jumpstarters aren't huge or anything - I'm not giving up hope until we see all five.

    On another note, now that I'm committed to getting these, I'm really invested in Bulkhead not being too similar to the Legacy toy I already have.

    Leaker said the hammer is just a cardboard thing you put together

    If the Jumpstarters are in this set as individual releases, my guess is they'd be standing together in the middle row with either Springer or "Bulkhead" atop the pile.

    Nightprowler comes with an Autobot symbol. And they've repurposed Diaclone characters as needed.

    Turning the Diaclone Jumpstarters into a pair of Wreckers would fit with stuff like DK2 Guard.

    Hmmmmm, not feelin' this Fossilizor as much.

    I forget if the Bulkhead reuse for this line is confirmed as Bulkhead (in which case y tho?), but I'm clinging to hope that it's Pyro.

    Big deal. I said the leaker is just a cardboard thing you put together.

    Get out of that!

    I never knew Leadfoot had an original form before the new Wreckers comic got released. I always assumed that he was an OC from Dark Of The Moon. And while I despise the Target brand crotch armor he adorned himself with, I do think he\'s a more interesting looking character than the G2 one. So I may just look for a Studio Series Leadfoot and pass on this one.

    And I have no thoughts on the Mastodon guy. To me he\'s just Ractonite, but again. The Chitauri armor he wears in this instance isn\'t fooling anyone.

    I'm guessing he's not even Bulkhead. I think leaks only said "retool."

    Sooooo… leadfoot probably killed any chance for a Sureshot from the Siege Mirage mold … he looks nice though. Glad they went ham with his weird bloody stripes. He looks like a McDonald’s play place (remember those ? :cry )

    Why would they cancel a figure that is already produced?

    I doubt the jumpstarters will get released elsewhere considering Twintwist that leaked has the Wreckers symbol on him

    It'd be the other way around. They'd plan out the releases and then split the artwork.

    Similar to how Golden Disc had 3-4 different box sizes.

    My guess would be if you stack them up as shown and turn it around you'll have the hammer assembled and displayed similar to Mjolnir when it's set down.

    I mean they show it on the box. Most likely both of the legs, halves of the torso for the middle set and the head being the top
