    If that Alpha Trion remolded Broadside is real. I wonder if they'll redo Springer or Sandstorm. Still's it's strange that there is no remold of Galvatron in sight.

    Wave 1 - Sentinel, Galvatron
    Wave 2 - Alpha Trion, Astrotrain
    Wave 3 - Optimus, Megatron

    I wouldn't be too surprised to see another Springer/Sandstorm, since they could share a base mold again and would be the only triple changer unrepresented in TR so far (assuming Blitzwing and Octane do come from the voyager TR Megs & OP molds). Not counting the Horrorcons, but they weren't under the Triple Changer category in G1 catalogs.

    Well if Fenrir talked to a designer who used, Titans Unite, I also talked to a purchasing/marketing guy who also used the term "Titans Unite" to describe part three of the prime wars trilogy. So there's two people who threw out that that term at SDCC.

    Now my question is, are there any other sources that back the possibility of a Apeface and Snapdragon getting legit bodies? I'd prefer not to triple up on Apeface since, right now, i'm looking at getting both the TT and Hasbro versions.

    Agree. At least they should have given us the original headmasters before sabotaging the other non-headmaster characters.

    Will we see more reveals at NYCC?

    Really eager to see Kup and Perceptor?

    Also crossing my fingers a CJ is coming from the new Legends Bumblebee mold.

    If I had to guess I'd bet on breakaway and double-cross and voyager op and leader sixshot I just don't think we will get to much from 2017 wave 2 if anything at all

    Optimus and Sixshot have already been officially revealed, at Cybertron Con.

    But yeah, Doublecross, Getaway and Triggerhappy are sure bets to get revealed at Hasbro's next convention appearance.

    Sandstorm and Springer won't share molds. If anything it'll be Rodimus and Springer, then Sandstorm and *shrug* ... They'll come up with someone.

    All the small headmasters could be done pretty easily on Hasbro's part, with only two new molds.

    Siren - Retool of Hot Rod
    Nightbeat - Chromedome retool
    Hosehead - New mold
    Horri-bull - Retool of Skullcruncher
    Fangry - retool of Doublecross
    Squeezeplay - new mold

    They even have the heads for all of them except Hosehead already made, and they definitely could do a Repugnus from Squeezeplay.

    I thought Fangry was a Titan Master. Plus With the other monsterbot Grotusque as yet unconfirmed I think he may show up next year.

    All the bots listed above are currently titanmasters. He's saying they need deluxe or voyager bodies.

    Ah I agree with that Maybe Takara might do something for that. I mean they did parts for the Combiners Bruticus, Computron and Defensor.

    She. Not to be that guy or anything.
    I don't see any reason why we wouldn't get them here in America as well. It's not like Combiner Wars where there were only a certain number of base molds to use and Hasbro tried to make the most of them. They can't really substitute these guys for anybody else.

    I'm just saying that, with the amount of parts reuse we've seen so far, I don't doubt that Hasbro could pull them all off.

    Mark my words:

    Doublecross is a deluxe. Grotusque will be a retool of Fangry as a Titan Master, and Repugnus will be a new mold Titan Master.

    Toraizer will be a retool of Sawback, Shuffler will be retooled into Ramhorn.

    I'm 84,7% sure.

    The jet mode for Galvatron seems similar(cockpit/nose section) to Apeface. Apeface could be retooled as Optimal Optimus with Snapdragon retooled as Transmetal 2 Megatron.

    For Galvatron I think it's possible we will either see it retooled as Apeface or repainted in G1 toy colors as an exclusive with the crown seen in the initial renders.
