Hot rod is a re-paint of blackjack clearly on the chest. His flame hood is clearly there.

Has anyone noticed that Hasbro has been taking more and more ideas from 3rd party vendors? 
it's great for me because I can't afford $100+ individual toys but it's kind of sad that they are creating almost after they see the market is there. Predaking would be a must for me because he was so friggin awesome in the comics and cartoons, but the way the redecos are coming out it looks like Hasbro is going to create thier own new combiners and use every marketing tool available, I.e. Comics, apps, cartoons, to get us on board to buy. but I don't think the consumer market will be as excited once we get to the end of the combiner wars series if we get familiar names with all re-tools. They could be working on a combiner dinobot or predaking and THAT would get me salivating...

I wouldn't be so sure about Streetwise/Dead End for Prowl. Look at how the front of the white limb is covering the knee instead hanging below it. Is that possible with Dead End?

I thought the same thing. If it were dead end we would have the front of the car flipped back.

I see two wheels just below the knee. The front wheels on Dead End flip down with the front end of the car.
ROOK!?!?

Looks to be just the torso-bot's lower thigh with its upper thigh covered by shadow and looking darker. No leg-bot's kibble can cover the knee like that when said knee is bent.JelZe GoldRabbit wrote:I wouldn't be so sure about Streetwise/Dead End for Prowl.

Quick question: has anyone seen the Wave 1 Deluxes with pack-in comic instead of the card? I'm curious to know if they are in the wild yet...

I just hope these all have extensive remolding. So far I can't really see getting a good-looking Mirage from Dragstrip.

Why not? Unlike his G1 self, CW dragstrip does not have the 6 wheels making his alt mode more in line with Mirage's.
And last time we just got a redeco and it worked out great, now we'll have a different head to differentiate them even more

Yeah, but that mold looks great as Dragstrip because it was already a fantastic mold.
The CW Dragstrip mold... well, I personally am not to fond of it. And as Mirage, it doesn't look good in my mind's eye.

The way it's looking right now, there are no real signs of them getting new vehicle parts at all, just new heads, as they don't really need them. Plus, the design sketches for Ironhide and Ratchet/Prowl showed them using Offroad's and First Aid's vehicle shells, respectively.
Back to the white limb, this image shows a perfect comparison between the two best contenders for Prowl; Dead End and Breakdown:
Who wants to make a wager? Take note that Breakdown still has a potential 2nd vehicle shell.

Ugh these silly pointless autobot repaints. In all honesty ill end up buying them when I see them in walmart out of pure curiousity and bordem. Im wondering if there are any obscure characters that they can pass off as if they got new heads ? Anybody from G2 ? Micromasters maybe ?

We have Ruckus for Offroad... Maybe G2 Motormouth for Ironhide:

Jelz, I forgot those front ends fold down like that. I like mine up for a knee pad effect. Judging by that picture you posted, you're on to something.
So, no wager out of me. I'm now paddling right beside you in your boat.

Its not pointless.
IDW is preparing to combine them together since as of this 4 of the members have been confirmed to be on Cybertron and Sunstreaker might be there to considering he is no longer on the lost light.
Plus this is probably a homage to masquerade yes there is only two of the members from that episode but the homage is there.

Great homage when only 2/5 of the same characters are used.
