Optimus Prime - 2014 Megatron - 2015 Grimlock - 2016 I honestly never expected Transformers to get ornaments from Hallmark, heck after Optimus Prime came out I never thought we'd get more than that! But now that Christmas is on the horizon we have our THIRD new Transformer ornament out there to add to our tree it was a surprise for me! We got Grimlock! I thought for sure they'd go with Bumblebee. Anyway, this gives me hope... Maybe we will be getting a Transformer ornament every year for a few years (at least till we get a core set of five for both sides perhaps). As a Starscream fan I am hopeful that next year we get a Starscream ornament and I just know that with Bumblebee getting his own solo film in 2018 that he will get the Hallmark Ornament Treatment that year while also still doing the Autobot, Decepticon, Autobot, routine. But who do you guys want to see get the Hallmark Ornament treatment? I'm hopefully we at least get Starscream, Soundwave, and Jazz.
I would love to see some Beast Wars to Animated ornaments. I was hoping 2016 would had a BW Optimus Primal ornament for the 20th anniversary, but that didn't happen.
Devastator for 2017, Bumblebee for 2018, Starscream for 2019, Jazz for 2020, Soundwave for 2021, Prowl for 2022, Skywarp for 2023, Bluestreak for 2024, Thundercracker for 2025, Hot Rod for 2026, Shockwave for 2027, Smokescreen for 2028, etc.
i think they could call it quits with soundwave. that takes care of the four 'guys that everybody remembers' and balances the factions.
Sideswipe and Sunstreaker Jazz Prowl Blaster Bluestreak Ratchet Wheeljack Mirage Ironhide (in a santa hat)
I'd be happy with this release schedule: 2017 - Starscream, Thundercracker and Skywarp (since they would be recolors) 2018 - Bumblebee 2019 - Soundwave 2020 - Jazz 2021 - Shockwave 2022 - Prowl 2023 - Devastator 2024 - Sideswipe Ironhide and Ratchet's G1 toy modes are just too ugly to be considered
I got the Grimlock one and that's all I'd really need but.... You bet your ass I'd buy this in a heartbeat.
Wait, are you serious? ::searches ebay:: Wow, you are completely serious. I'm in shock that this thing is now almost 50 bucks.
Soundwave at least. Unicron would be superb. What I wouldn't give for Bot and Con symbol Xmas lights.
Right?! Like, imagine him curled up in the remnants of a gift-wrapped box he's obviously just ripped to shreds. How about an Animated Blazing Lockdown with his chainsaw hand carrying a freshly-cut Christmas tree over his shoulder? How about city-mode Metroplex, towers capped with snow, with a chimney and a sleigh and reindeer parked next to it? How about Unicron in a Santa suit with Megatron sitting on his lap? I mean, forgive a little Yuletide irreverence, but these are f*cking Christmas ornaments. I want something f*cking whimsical, dammit!
I'm hoping next year's is Soundwave with Laserbeak over one shoulder and Ravage popping out of his chest. Beyond that, I'd like to see them branch out by doing the rest of the cassettes, as well as the minibots, in those little mini-ornament sets they always put out every year, then just keep alternating between the G1 toy 'Bots and G1 toy 'Cons for the "big" ornament every year; Jazz for 2018, Starscream 2019, etc., etc.
