The title of the news says it all. TFC Toys have updated their facebook page with a blurred teaser image of an upcoming project. Though heavily blurred the image appears very similar to the PCC limb upgrade set based on WWII tanks and planes.

Check out the image below, and let the speculation begin.

I'll get excited when they post a real pic. I don't see the point in these types of images.

Yes, this sort of thing is a complete waste of time.

I am SOOO glad I didn't try looking at that picture with a hangover!
I agree with everyone else, teaser pics like this are next to useless. If you stand WAY back it almost comes into focus but by that point you can't see details anyways so you can't even form an educated guess. Waste of time.

For what it's worth, it's not Bruticus and fans are going to love it! :D

Yes, a waste of time. Just show the damn pic already. Let people get excited now. So we need to know how many banks to rob so we can afford it.

I hope thats true :D GRR cos i just :BANG_HEAD: thinking of yet another version of something we have already takeing up vital space of something new and exciteing.

Its daft looking at pixels but it does look like bruticus back pack cannons and the left leg could be brawl.

Zoom your screen out all the way and it is clearly Bruticus

Maybe it's an upgrade set for WFC Bruticus? I know the figures aren't out yet, but I'm just throwing shit at the wall here. That's pretty clearly Bruticus and no one can convince me otherwise.

The rumored Computron, perhaps?

Indeed.

An expensive set I'll really want, but can't afford. After seeing the cost of Hercules, I know I won't be able to afford this one. I have to budget like everyone else, and if I want to continue collecting Prime (and I do), then this sacrifice must be made.

:( *is sad panda*

That's my guess, but why would they do this if we've seen them many many times before?

saying that when i was Lookiong at the smaller picture i thought the legs of the center robot looked like it had PCC sockets but since this is from TFC and this is following Herc i cant imagine it being a simple up grade .

If it is a new new combiner i hope is not the same size as herc just to keep it in a price range for most and so those who wernt able to get herc have a chance at owning something great from TFC.

I thought the same thing. The proportions match and there seems to be distinct cannon turrets on the legs and wings panels on the arms. TFC love their teasers and they're nothing but a waste of time.

Really a PCC? Anything PCC was a FAIL !! !! They ALL sucked, seriously. I dont even think its remotely feasible for them to make ANYTHING for a PCC add on. Even their Bruticus upgrade prototype is really pointless. I mean if they are going to make pretty much 75% of the toy. Why not go all out and make a 100% Bruticus of their own? And if they do that they might as well go for a Computron or something the fans want. Rather then make something that is already been made to death. COMPUTRON, ABOMINUS, PIRANACON, PREDAKING, MONSTRUCTOR, MENASOR, SUPERION. Any of those would sell well I think.

I agree PCC as a whole is generally looked down on as being a tad naff, but when TFC revealed their WWII limbs over a year ago they received quite positive comments from a number of collectors.

We haven't heard anything about those pieces in some time so maybe they have been developing them further to the point where they've done an entirely new team. Who knows?

All I know is there's no point in teaser images.

It's about damn time they release the PCC limbs. As to why they back tracked and gave us a blurry photo, I'm guessing they decided to make an original commander too. Hopefully, he is sold separately so I can just use my Heavytread as the center piece.

I wouldn't say 'in the know', but I heard from a guy who hangs out with a dude that visits a comic shop an hour away from where I live that knows another guy who hinted at some future TFC moves. Your classics Bruticus/Crossfire set, is still gonna be king of his shelf.

Well, I collected all the PCC combiner when the SRP price went less than 1/3, right now they are just waiting calmly for an upgrade or modification. Who knows the story may go same like Bruticus/Superion back in the days. >:oP

Im thinking it might be for FoC what with the left arm having those... well, they look like the blades, and the way the left leg looks doesnt look like a tank too much to me.
