Info from the United States Patent and Trademark Office tells us that Hasbro has recently renewed the trademark titles Tankor and Buzzsaw. From what Shadow told us few days ago, we are to see a Buzzsaw figure based on Transformers: Dark of the Moon Deluxe Laserbeak. Now, the question of the hour is… Are we to see a Tankor figure soon as well? Perhaps based on the recent Generations Warpath?
You can take a look at the Trademark Documents by visiting the links below:
Only time can tell… We are here, We are waiting!

Buzzwave
Yay Tankor, what an interesting name, now get jetor and coptor along with planor and jeepor and you have the Orcons that combine into a giant killer whale hell yeah
Please ignore ^^

He is also Rumble as what Overlord Balder said. That's what I call him until Hasbro says or does any different

^ It showed up a lot in the Chicago battle, but mostly at a distance. We get the best look at it when the Wreckers finally put it down in the background as Sam is rushing the pillar. Some wag dubbed him "Cloverjolt," because its posture mirrors the monster from "Cloverfield" and it shows up as much as, well, Jolt.

Hmmm…a Brawl redeco would be very likely, but wouldn't interest me at all. We already know a retool of Megatron is on the way (non-injured head), but that's more than likely going to stay as Megatron. This "monstrous four-legged Decepticon" could be interesting, though I have no idea what it looks like, or whether or not it's something Hasbro would make a toy of.

hmmmm interesting, i will more tan likely buy both is those are hasbro's plans
Destron23
Doesn't matter to me what his alt mode looks like as long as the toy would look very close to the BM model.
Anguirus
Hopefully not the one that made me go "ick."
seekerblackout
Oh I hope it's the clovercon!

I wont say which of the three you may have pegged or at least got close to but you are onto something my friend

If it's not a new Character for Transformers Prime that said reissuing Octane/Tankor in Military colours might be nice and something like a Movie Deluxe Brawn (deep desert mould revision version) as Tankor might be OK for the 2012 follow up to the Movie line (The 2012 version of HFTD/NEST) as I quite liked the blue legends Tankor and wouldn't mind a deluxe blue version.

though I saw a custom that was a sort of concrete blue grey colour but still had the stripes and I though that looked cool (and a bit like Universe Galvatron). Blue's nice but concrete colour / Urban deco might be a nicer general repaint. either a plain grey or like the Combaticons/Ruination boxed set's colours.
But a Warpath or Guzzle Redeco seems like a nice idea too.

*Brown.

Tankor was not renewed, there was a Tankor Legends toy in 2009 already…
My guess is, as a blue Brawl was in DOTM, this is for a planned deluxe repaint of the 2007 movie toy.

Judging by your signature and avatar, you want him to be a tanker truck?
Destron23
YESSS!!!! PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE Give us a generations Tankor!!!!!

Tankor could just be Octane
Lazerwave
So now I have a Tankor and a Thrust. Now I just need a Jetstorm. Unless I could just use Prime Soundwave.

I guess I am the only one that wants a Tankor repaint out of DOTM Shockwave. IMO the repaints so far for that mold are disappointing.
A repaint of DOTM Megatron would be cool. Or of leader Brawl. A new mold would be awesome. In any way it should be a Voyager or bigger.

If Tankors not the Warpath repaint then – I can see some worth in a Tank General leading a squad of Vehicon Tank warriors in Transformers Prime it might even make sense them renaming them from Eradicons too if Tankor was a vehicon General in Prime.
It does make you wonder how a character like Stryka, Obsidian or Jetstorm would fit into Prime though.
Obsidian was only a bad guy as Megatron reprogrammed him so he could be on either side really and he's certainly be a unique answer to the question of an Autobot flyer of which there's a fair few choices for.

The fact that they're just now trademarking it, makes me expect it to be a season 2 Prime character. You know how they love their bigass Decepeticons.
