Bets in now: who's the last figure in the box set and the attendee figure?

We have three Autobots and one Decepticon, so more than likely the next one(s) will be Decepticon-allied. Going with either Starscream, Soundwave, or Megatron/Megaplex. Anyone concur?

Don't ever recall Obsidian being confirmed as an Autobot. For all we know, Strika and Obsidian could be rivals in Machine Wars.

We can't even see an Autobot insignia on his BotCon reveal.

That's right, forgot they haven't said anything about his allegiance. But, I have to agree with JelZe by calling out his post in Strika's thread: the pair's main objective was to protect Cybertron, and it appears siding with the Autobots was the choice that appealed to them.

As it currently stands, we have 3 Deluxes and a Voyager. Looking at past sets we still have room for another Voyager or maybe we could even squeeze in a Universe Ultra:

2012: 5 Deluxes, 1 Voyager
2011: 4 Deluxes, 1 Voyager
2010: 3 Deluxes, 1 Voyager, 1 Ultra
2009: 3 Deluxes, 1 Voyager, 1 Ultra
2008: 1 Mini-Con, 3 Deluxes, 2 Voyagers

I wouldn't exclude the possibility of another Deluxe though, but anything goes.

Once again, here are mine:

- Universe Silverbolt as Starscream because of the overall profile
- DotM Skyhammer as Whirl, even if chances to that are slim
- RotF Brawn as Fisitron/Ironfist

Look at the trend, though: each year, more Deluxes and fewer larger figures. I think it's optimistic to expect a second Voyager.

True, but when was the last time we've seen an Ultra in retail? For that matter, weren't Voyager line-ups a tad larger in past lines? I'm just saying it's possible due to total size, nothing more.

Well... we still have the attendee figure to speculate about... right?

Not to mention the Souvenir Sets. FunPub, if you make a Troop Builder set of Thundercracker clones, that's the one time I'm gonna say RUINED FOREVER!!! Make him the Attendee figure instead.

I believe Pete said that Classicverse collectors would love the troopbuilder set, so we shall see.

Hm, we already had Sweeps and Junkions... Paradron Medics? With Arcee as a retool of Blurr? G1 Arcee did look like G1 Blurr with wheels...
