The next part in the trilogy--which started with Siege--fine.
Still....do you think think the next line encompassing this three part story is going to be Legends scale?

We need a Needlenose, and I have voted for him.

But hasbro needs to stop putting characters like this in a poll. Stick to making new characters, not making us choose between character that really do need toys (Siege/PotP) or making it a dumb vote to choose between characters that got good toys recently and those that have not had a generations mainline release ever (Armageddon)

I would go for Needlenose depite already owning the TFCC exclusive. I can finally use him as a limb - same goes with Impactor .

But we are also due for both R and R .

What would be nice is if we got a set of insecticons with cohesive colors

CAN WE PLEASE HAVE SOME DECEPTICONS

Somehow the News Item about Ratchet and Bluestreak links to the Fan Vote thread, and not this one:

WFC Siege Discussion Thread.

i personally voted for runamuck, but from what i see so far, needlenose seems to be the most potential winner.

Yeah, I've noticed Needlenose seems to be first, with Runamuck as a relatively close second, which I'm glad about. I'd much rather have either of them than Shrapnel or Gnaw when we got such good figures of them so recently.

That's probably why those two are ahead over gnaw and Skrapnel, it just seems strange that Needlenose ended up on this poll after losing the other.

Someone over at Hasbro HQ must really want Needlenose to happen. :lol:

by **ZeldaTheSwordsman** » Fri Jun 14, 2019 2:52 pm

Mostly leaning towards Runamok or Needlenose. Although I wouldn't mind a bigger Gnaw..

But I'm really leaning towards the site staff fixing the thread links in the newsposts

So voting is now closed, and based on a "find in page" search, it looks like Needlnose might be the winner here. This is in no way official yet but for everyone who voted for Needlenose, like me, we might be in luck.

Where was the source that part 2 of War for Cybertron is called Armageddon?

Here you go, this was originally posted on the Siege thread:

A decepticon fan vote will take place to see who will get a figure.

Can you recognize who the four Decepticons are in the picture below? Come and share your guesses! Once we publish the identity of these mysterious characters, you have the opportunity to decide which character will appear in 2020. WFC battles Cybertron product line! [中国赞]

The picture didn't carry over right when quoted, but it was the silhouettes of the vote characters and it was up a day before the official reveal/announcement of the vote, so it should be legit.

Also had a thought, do we think that since Siege had two fan vote characters, after we get the results tomorrow there will also be a second poll with a choice of 4 Autobots?

I doubt there will be another poll. They seem to only be doing one poll per year

Is the video supposed to contain the source for the "Armageddon" rumour?

by **Skritz** » Sun Jun 16, 2019 3:28 pm

If the name is Armageddon then it does make sense, as does a vote for a deluxe Decepticon since last line was heavy on Deluxe Autobots. Presumably, the implied continuity story is that the Autobots have lost the Siege and now the 'cons are trampling all over what little territory and forces they have left. Last line was very Autobot-heavy so hopefully we will see reversed roles this time.

Which would mean way less 1984 guys since the 1984 'con lineup is pretty much covered by Siege already. This would also be, again, consistent with the guys we saw in the vote who are all 'goon'-type characters.

Was it? Only the Deluxe Class was pretty lopsided in the Autobots' favor, the others were pretty balanced.

Leader class and the Micromasters were tipped towards the Autobots as well.

If I'm not mistaken, the Battlemasters were mostly Autobots too

Really now?

Battle Masters: 4

vs 3

Micromasters:: 4 Sets

vs 3

Sets

Deluxe Class:: 10

vs 4

Voyager Class: 2

vs 4

This one, as established, is kind of an anomaly.

Leader Class: 2

vs 1

Commander Class: A single

, Jetfire.

Titan Class: Again, a single

which is to say Omega Supreme plus his micromaster buddy.

Even taking the exclusives into account as their own category we get 6

vs 2

If you think that's bad, keep in mind that in Japan if your mecha show isn't called Gundam or Transformers you'll NEVER see a toy of the bad guys. No joke.

Given that Hasbro's little write-up for this fan vote said that the winner of this vote would stowaway on the Ark, that storyline would make sense.

Also I just now realized I misread and that we find out the poll results in a month, not tomorrow. I read June.... #-o

I live in regional Australia, I'm lucky to see the "latest" toys within 6 months.

That's a henshin hero not a mecha.
