    Hey, Beast Wars is cool (even though I haven't even watched any episodes of it). Beast Wars was a milestone in animal animation AND Transformers animation. Your opinion is valid.

    As for Transmutate being from Paleotrex, it might be capable. as the way that the mold works, Hasbro could easily do something to fanagle the mold. Looking at the fact you can move the T-Rex Head to the front of the torso and that you can swap the torso and the Hips, it might work. Meanwhile, the proportions are correct. All they need is a new hand for Transmutate and a new head.

    I'd be up for a creative re-imagining of Tigerhawk in Kingdom, where the deluxe Airazor and voyager Tigatron combine to form a Leader-sized Tigerhawk. I doubt we'll get such a thing, but it would be fun.

    That would result in a either a compromised Tigatron and Airazor, or a compromised Tigerhawk.

    Though personally, I think 1 thing. I think that Hasbro is likely to release the remaining characters (Inferno, Terrorsaur, and, err, I don't remember) in the Netflix Series.

    Tigerhawk isn't in the Netflix series so far and probably won't be.

    I highly doubt we're gonna see Tigerhawk, as much as I'd like a new figure it seems the primary focus for Kingdom (at least at the moment) is the first season. It'd be strange if they suddenly jump to a season three character while we're missing several from the first.

    Though if we did get a new Tigerhawk, selects Razorclaw pls.

    Clarification: I mean the Netflix Toyline. Though I still don't remember who was the final character. Anyone remember that character.
    As for Terrorsaur, I think he would be a Deluxe Class remold of Airazor.
    Who are the characters missing from Season 1? I remember BW Inferno and Terrorsaur. Who was that final character?

    Guessing here, I think, err, is that Tarantulas? So the remaining characters from Season 1 that are needed are Inferno, Terrorsaur, and Tarantulas?

    Yay. So now, let's stop and think. "Who could Hasbro remold into Terrorsaur, BW Inferno, and Tarantulas?" I think Tarantulas could be from Blackarachnia. Terrorsaur, if he isn't too big, from Airazor. However, BW Inferno might be a bit hard to make. Maybe be a large Deluxe Class figure?

    Honestly, I'm probably insanely biased but I really don't think a retool of BA would work for Tarantulas and I feel he should be given the 'Tigatron treatment' as it were. His beast mode is too big and not remotely similar to a black widow. I can't say for Airazor until I see her figure, but even then ...

    I'd rather a Tarantulas that was a bit large with a new mold (with some shared engineering perhaps) than a heavily compromised one trying to turn BA into him.

    Or maybe they could all be new molds and not retools? Not every character has to be a retool, especially characters that are deserving of their own molds.

    The reason why is that I am assuming that they would be released in the Netflix Toyline because maybe they couldn't fit those 3 into the main WFC Trilogy toyline. So I was wondering whether or not there were any molds that they could reuse/remold. I look into the previous waves (Wave 1 and Wave 2) and I have noticed a pattern. That there are 2 whole new decos/new molds in the Deluxe Class (Decepticon Mirage and Scrapface for Wave 1, Bumblebee and Elita-1 for Wave 2) and 1 New deco/new mold in the Voyager Class (Hotlink in Wave 1, Soundwave in Wave 2) along with the 3 slight redecos in the Deluxe Class and the 1 Slight redeco for the Voyager Class. Now assuming that Terrorsaur and Tarantulus are going to be Deluxe Class figures and that BW Inferno will be a Voyager Class figure, I was assuming that if they decided to base the Terrorsaur Mold off of Airazor and the Tarantulas mold off of Blackarachnia.

    they could use blackarachnia legs and arms on tarantulas maybe even rescaled but not neceserally they would just need a new torso and head, for the other 2 i dont know, i can see tarantulas released as an exclusive of the Netflix line if it continues , the other 2 definetelly would need new molds or greater amount of retooling

    I almost think that we need a scale for "How remolded is this figure?" It would be used to show how much remolding from a certain toy into a new character is/was required. It goes from "Just a new head" to "Shared Engineering Only". Most of the Bumblebee to Cliffjumper remolds are closer to "Just a new head". The Earthrise Cliffjumper to Netflix Bumblebee is closer to "Shared Engineering Only". The Combiner Wars Hot Spot/Onslaught to Ectotron is closer to "Shared Engineering Only."

    And also, Tarantulas coming from Blackarachnia would be reverse of their original toys, where Blackarachnia was a direct redeco of Tarantulas. It would only make sense for Tarantulas to come from Blackarachnia. Meanwhile, when it comes to Terrorsaur or BW Inferno, if Airazor's mold allows for it, I think that Terrorsaur will come from Airazor. BW Inferno is a total question mark for me.

    Ah, so "Shared Engineering" with only a couple of shared parts.
