    Not unless they also make a Hook that turns into a leg.

    I'd get both the new Prowl torso and new Hook leg, but I think we are hoping that Hasbro does it. Will wait to see what the Combiner Wars Devastator looks like.

    Also wanted. But even if they only made Prowl, I'd be very happy.

    I'm wondering myself why they didn't get to that sooner.

    Because of the high hope that this dumb plot twist is over and forgotten soon

    Worse than Headmaster Sunstreaker

    It'd be a nice little easter egg if the Warbotron version incorporated a possible configuration for this

    Spoilers:


    In the recent IDW comics, Scrapper is killed, and Prowl becomes the new leader of the Constructicons. He takes Hook's place as the shoulders, and Hook becomes the new right leg.

    That skips a lot of relevant plot points, but it's the gist of it.

    Not going to lie I tried rubber-banding my Classic Prowl to Hercules with Hook as the leg.

    well prime is a torso in the new upcoming line. If they are retconning the stunticons into autobots to match maybe we'll see
    *mirage/dragstrip repaint
    *red alert or sideswipe/ breakdown
    *silverstreak/widrider
    *prowl/deadend

    While also supercool, I was looking for him to be part of Devastator, ala IDW Robots In Disguise

    I've been waiting for someone to do a Prowlish head for Giant since I read the comics. Been tempted to try my hand at making my own.

    I sense because the demand may not be there just yet, especially with Giant. You have to factor in that not everyone with Giant would want Prowl as the head of it, though I imagine some would. So the market share is not as strong as Giants was.

    I guarantee that idw doesn't even have a design that works. When prowl merges with devs he becomes a generic blob that doesn't look like anything close to a police car
