Crap hasbro doesn't know how to use common sense.

Well there's already a WFC design for Motormaster(from the DS version). Wildrider I believe would be the only one that don't have an Aligned design yet. It's more than possible.

As much as I like what I see from the FoC line so far, if this is all there is, I'll be sorely disappointed. Stunticons AND Aerialbots make sense IMO. Though of course, one Aerialbot is already made for wave 2, and he unfortunately don't have combining ability. Maybe it'll turn out like RoTF Dead End where there's 2 guys that have the name, but only one of them is a true member of his sub-group? It's definitely a far fetched idea, but not impossible.

Eh, who am I kidding... with all the fan backlash from Bruticus, I'll be surprised if we ever get another combiner.

In all fairness, the "backlash" was them selling out very very quickly. So if anything, Hasbro knows the interest is there. But any future combiner had better be much MUCH better than this Bruticus.

So I got the latest TFCC magazine today. In the interview with Director of the Transformers brand team Jerry Jivoin, JJ says that he hopes that the rest of the Dinobots makes it to the Voyager scale. I'm not sure if his word carries that much weight to it, but I haven't been as optimistic about anything before in my life.

If the Director is willing to put it into a written statement, then at least there are drawings and 3D models of these mythical Voyager Dinobots within Hasbro's design departments. Whether they'll make it past that stage... we shall see.

Well TCC only asked what figures he'd like to personally see made. But it still gives me hope. Lots and lots of delicious hope.

If some posts are to be believed, I hear Hasbro feeds on hope.

I'll hold onto some hope for larger Dinobot release. Never owned them all as a kid.

I'd like figures being presented in the same brand line (Generations) to have some consistency in size with other figures offered in the same class (deluxe).

What, this hasn't been beaten to death yet?
