That's if they do those two, that is. Not every old MW figure will get an update, and Strika shows that they're looking to do new characters as well.
If you've read Exodus, wanna read the War For Cybertron comic? PM me.

I really hope some version of this makes it to retail. Strika was the best thing about Beast Machines and one of the only good things from Animated, and she needs more than just the Universe Nemesis Strika that adorns my shelf right now.

as Machine Wars-y as the G2 set then?

Ah well, I'm sure some people want a new version of Strika and this is as expensive a way to get them to buy one as any.
assembling a Neo-G1/TF:TM cast. Please PM if you have (or know of) the following at a reasonable price: Classics or Henkei Prowl, Astrotrain, Ramjet, Skywarp, Sunstreaker, Sideswipe, Blurr, Perceptor, GDO Wheelie and Springer, or 3rd Party Motobot Arcee, FP Springer, iGear Ratchet and Ironhide, City Commander (and/or Ultra Magnus), Starscream (deluxe) Coronation add-on, or Spike and Daniel in their Exo-Suits.

Then your "awesomeness" meter is broken :P

I'm thinking you need to look up "awesome" in the dictionary :P

Those things are okay, but that's about it. They seem like a step (or five) backwards to me after years of collecting toys that transform from a robot (like those things) to a vehicle of some kind ;)

I really hope this is true in some way, shape or form, even if it's a completely separate figure that's the retail Strika.
