    What makes you think that retools will be that easy to come by in a post-Siege Generations line?

    Metroshot would be cool.

    As would Brave Cog. The original was an all blue Lucky Draw so I’m picturing something more based on Brave Maximus. Strikes me as the kind of thing FunPub would do. Along with R.E.V./Eagle Killer from Siege Sideswipe. Maybe a Dark Scream from TR Mindwipe, Gas Skunk from Weird Wolf, Slapper from Repugnus.

    I think I\'m going to buy two Brunts so could I heavily arm up Megatron

    IP can easy be masked or hid. Just need the right software to do it. Trust me it can be done.

    BTW, This information was passed down and who knows how misconstrued this info was before I got it. I only heard he is in so series trouble and people are looking for him.

    Who says it has to be the FBI. Could be Interpol as well. Only telling what I was told.

    I can’t wait to see the conglomerations that come from combining Six-Gun, Cog and Brunt. And the even crazier fan mode gestalts to come.

    1 dude vs whomever these "people" are that are looking for him? The FBI or international equivalent, the / China / Taiwan / Vietnam government and Hasbro have millions of dollars at their disposal, many assets and many tech / cyber experts, cyber security, anti theft etc. Unless you are saying that Ton Ton is a real world super genius the likes of Lex Luthor or Ozymandius, all this is just made up heresay.

    That's not really true. It depends on whether they've been asked not to publish such material. For example, none of the main sites published full scans of comics that were part of Botcon related material (upon request), whereas most of the sites have published such scans of comics from Japan/Takara Tomy. One could argue that both are copyrighted works, yet the various sites only uphold them when asked to do so (or feel that they would be asked).

    Which, in turn, seems based upon Tankor, to me.

    I'm still thinking that Brunt may be able to replace Full Tilt on Trypticon from that underside shot.

    Less excited about this figure after seeing the review and pictures. The weaponized gimmick was never important to me with any of them.

    I just see them as the missing parts/figures that should've came their initially assigned Titans. And that's it.

    If Brunt looked better and was larger I would've bought 2. As for that Tankor remold talk, have fun with that. (Now if they make a DJD "Vos" out of Sixgun that would be different)

    Leader Galaxy Force Prime from Leader Ultra Magnus, Barricade from Prowl, all the Micromaster repaints, the seemingly confirmed CD Hot Shot from Hound judging by that box art. If nothing else, it wouldn't be hard to be thrown out as a Generations Selects like Hero Megatron

    Barricade from Prowl is a logical next step from the Guidi designs. Hasbro seems to be neglecting the Micro- and Battlemasters, keeping them from having the same level as the guzzlers. GUOp seems to be the only anomaly if you consider it the same individual as was in TF: Cybertron, but since the line takes place in a G1 continuity, it's better to consider him to be another form of a Primax-cluster Optimus Prime.

    Generations Selects seems to be the most likely place for such a random mold reuse. Or one of the WFC multi-packs? =p But definitely not in the main line IMHO.

    Multi-packs? Is that where the likes of Skywarp and Slamdance are in?

    Yep, those. And Slamdance is exactly the reason that I mentioned them here. That repaint is nonsensical, and the only way I can think of to justify it in a G1 story is that Slamdance was a Flywheels clone before he was reformatted into Blaster's tapes. Maybe it was before he met Blaster?

    Maybe I'm making it more interesting than it actually is lol

    Definitely the latter. This isn't a G1 story, it's a WFC story when the netflix show drops, but that's about as much as we're going to get. I won't count the IDW series since that was going to happen with or without the toyline (as the designs mean nothing in terms of the story and the arguable leads are characters who don't even have toys this year with Bumblebee and Windblade). If it were the G1 story, Jetfire wouldn't have the faction changing gimmick as he didn't do that until WELL after everyone came to Earth.

    It's just a clever repaint to bring an otherwise impossible release to the market of a character that hasn't seen the light of day officially since the 80's.

    Didn't watch the interviews in my sig, I take it...? Hasbro reps confirmed it as a G1 story. The Netflix shows, TCG expansions and combic story are in turn based on the toyline.

    Um, no, actually. Didn't notice them, usually ignore hyperlinks. My bad.

    Because there are already recolours and retooled figures in the current Seige line?
