That is because these kinds of polls are good ways to get us more fembot toys due to how sparringly we get them in proportion to all the male toys we get so regularly.

A full-sized fembot combiner, nay, a full-sized fembot beast-based combiner would be an impressive accomplishment.

There aren't nearly enough female Transformers, and fewer still of them have toys.

In all honesty, even a half fembot team would be great they are about half and half on windblades planet and I'm guessing that's where this new bot is coming from.

EXACTLY why I suggested a fembot combiner.

Even if not a "G1 Fembots without toys" combiner, I'd still take a combiner with even a couple of female members. There is one panel with male-appearing Cityspeakers in the Windblade Mini, so that's a possibility.

Yeah, like with Windblade this is going to be all new characters made from all new molds. Looking at the schedule they've got set up with the polls starting soon, the reveal late this year and the release in 2016 it isn't too different from the first poll starting in Spring 2013, Windblade announced in the summer, final figure reveal in winter 2014, and release in fall 2014. They said the figure would be revealed by the end of 2015 (probably NYCC), but I think we'll probably get the results of the poll at BotCon if not sooner. Since the figures probably won't be released until summer 2016 there's more than enough time to ready five new molds.

But reading between the lines: Yay, we'll still be getting new CW figures in 2016!

Personally I want a Power Rangers-like team of characters in red, blue, black, pink, and yellow. Maybe all with similar bot modes and different vehicle modes like the Clones. Show Bandai how it's done.

I was thinking along those same lines (but make the central torso a wolf instead - yes, I'm biased). It could be a rival to Predaking and the Predacons. Beastlord and the Beastbots? Unfortunately, unless Hasbro has already planned out a Predaking release for Generations, I don't think we'll get anything of the sort out of this fan-built poll. It'll most likely be made up of redecoes of the figures already slated for a 2015 release.

By the way, the Autobots in Generation 1 had far fewer combiner teams than the Decepticons ever did, so I don't get all the enthusiasm to unbalance that ratio even further.

If I only have the current figures to choose from, I would like a Gobots Renegades(Decepticons) combiner.

Bad Boy as a repaint of Powerglide. Easy

Warpath, Cop-Tur, Twin Spin, Night Fright or Breez from Alpha Bravo. Vortex retool if it's in the works.

Slicks or Crasher black/white from Dragstrip.

Fitor or Oddball from Skydive, Air Raid or Fireflight.

Gunnyr from Fireflight.

Sky Jack from Air Raid.

Spoiler from Breakdown.

Stallion or Stinger from Dead End or Blackjack.

Jeeper Creeper or Pow Wow from Off Road.

Fly Trap from Optimus/Motormaster. This one is a bit of a stretch.

Snoop from Silverbolt. Perfect.


I would go for Snoop(Silverbolt), Slicks(Dragstrip), Spoiler(Breakdown), Sky Jack(Air Raid), Jeeper Creeper(Off Road) and Bad Boy(Powerglide). Three land based alt modes and three air based alt modes.

If I could vote for ANYTHING then I'd go for that fembot, aquatic, beast combiner. Gobots Monsterous would be after that.

I think when people think of "Optimus Prime GoBot" they think of (aside from the G2 figure) Road Ranger and maybe Staks.

But I like this idea, would be a good e-Hobby or BotCon set.

Well, how long after the first announcement of the original fan build bot poll that produced Windblade was Windblade announced?

Uhhhhh lets see, it was April 18thish the poll was put out, and Windblade was announced at SDCC which was sometime iiiiiiiiiin July?
Wasn't the poll first announced ahead of its first going live?
I looked at the archives and it says it was added and announced Wednesday, April 17th of 2013
Alrighty. And when did the first images of the toy itself surface? (be they prototype pics or the finished figure)


Like two or so days prior to Toy Fair 2014.
So, about ten months in between the announcement of the poll and the first pics of the figure.

One more thing. When did the final round of the poll reach its definite ending?
