Because of this crap, we probably won't ever get an official slipstream any better than this. Hopefully a 3rd party company pulls it off.
Hasbro/Takara should have a fembot toyline where its just a bunch of female robots who still transform. Not only might it help with the female market, but it would round out our collections

The original slipstream (animated) had a cockpit on her mid-section like all seekers, not breasts. This will be my first TF Prime mold and works great for classics.

Honestly, there's a great deal of similarity between WFC Slipstream (where the asthetics were more in line with Classics than TF: Prime) and this figure.

For me I see it as a classics figure. There is no Slipstream in TF Prime. She is from the Animated continuity. Didnt know she was in WFC/FOC since Im not into video games. I think Funpub is known for repainting molds from other continuities into classics figures.
Examples:
R.I.D. Skybyte from Energon Sharkticon
G1 Circuit from ROTF Lockdown
G1 Spinister from HFTD Tomohawk
Classics Nightbeat from Energon Hot Shot
I dont see anybody sticking these figures on their Energon or Bayverse shelves, they are using them as stand ins for their classic collection. So I just cant see why people insist this figure was meant for the TF Prime line knowing Funpub's general history. Why would someone want a TF Prime Slipstream, when there is no TF Prime Thundercracker, Thrust, Dirge, or Ramjet ? I think Funpub listened to all the rants about how feminine the Prime SS mold looked, so they used it as a female seeker variant instead of giving us the same old classics seeker mold. If we only used "classics" molds for a classics collection, it would have no variety. It would be a shelf of repaints.

I wouldn't necessarily say that wouldn't get it at all or that this is the official release. It just means that Hasbro has no current plans for the character. There are lots of characters that funpub put out as club or BotCon exclusives that Hasbro years down the line decided to do officially.
There were a lot of people who thought the same thing back in 2007 when Funpub put Thundercracker, Dirge and Ramjet in the Games of Deception set.
