    You and everyone else. Because it's the most logical choice, and the base mold has already been re-used very recently.

    As others have said, Tigatron is a Voyager. It was a late change, so presumably Shadow Panther was pulled in to be the Cheetor repaint at retail.

    Because I'm pretty sure that's what leakers have already said.

    It's the three TR Headmasters retooled as Dracula, the Wolfman, and the Creature from the Black Lagoon.

    I wonder if SS-77 could be the first of our Bumblebee Seeker repaints? If he wasn't listed on Amazon, it's probably an exclusive of somewhere else

    If the Draculus figure is a primarily black Mindwipe mold, I might finally get the fodder for the Convertors Robat custom I’ve wanted to do for a while now.

    Also, if they’re really doing an Amazon Optimus, I hope his matrix crystal is yellow like it’s filled with urine.

    Pipes? I mean I know they’ll milk the hell out of all possible repaints, but unless we’re getting an IDW-style Pipes it’s an odd decision. I’d imagine he’s going to be a peg warmer due to how obscure he is compared to other characters.

    Now bring me Wwwwwaspinator!

    Probably means it’ll be either a a re-used cheetor mold upscaled and tweaked, or a cheetor repaint/remold with something thrown into the box.

    GS Galvatron? Interesting! Didn’t take them long to get to repainting that mould. And man I’m really hoping the Sweep actually looks noticeably different from Scourge, I’d love to have a few if that’s the case.

    Can confirm it's a mindwipe retool. To be honest the grey-scale image I've seen makes it look pretty much like it's just a headswap. Although he does have newly tooled chest and forearms/hands.

    Looks like he's coming with a cape which might even be cloth rather than plastic.

    Not gonna lie. A Prime in Amazon orange and Prime blue with white and black will look great.

    A-Z Gundam is literally that...a Gundam in Amazon colors. I have one and it's a great looking color scheme. Having Optimus in this scheme would be great

    I'm still hoping we get a Knightrider collaboration someday. Where K.I.T.T. (1982 Trans Am) becomes a Transformer. That's something I've truly been waiting for all my life : )

    Looking forward to SG Jetfire and the Amazon Prime if its a cool color scheme. I think Galvatron will be a toy color version.
