Maybe...MENASOR?!

In Key to Vector Sigma, Op implied that Superion counted towards a total of six Aerialbots, making it logical that if there is a way to combine these guys, this could be a hint.

If not, then either G2 Breakdown or a Battlecharger. I dunno.

why do i have the feeling that they are going to name the 6th guy menasor

Awesome! Glad I'm going!

im all for wreck gar and all but, it new heads where ####mold and ####2 mold, meaning they might reuse a mold like if optimus is motormaster he will be menasor with a different head and colors. O r at least I hope so...

I’m sensing a combiner kibble transformer, well it was a thought of my TF story line much like headmaster’s targetmasters and powermasters I called them diacons a single robot that can turn in to the parts that keep the combiners together, but the combiners cannot combine without the diacon so they need the diacons to combine.

IF, and that's a very big IF, they actually can get them to combine, then I might be interested in the set.

But otherwise ... meh.

Or Spastic.

This is just a guess, but I'm wondering if the sixth bot could maybe be Bugbite.

Good call.

Were it up to me, I would have saved the Arcee mold for the 6th Stunticon, and painted her as Crasher/Fracture.

My theory is that the clone car, who served as the chest piece for Menasor, may very well be getting his own persona and transformation.

And boom goes the dynamite! That is exactly what I was thinking!

Have a question for those who have TFA Voyager class Prime...How tough would it be, or how plausible, to attach a 2-way plastic clip to his arms and legs for allowing faux limbs to attach. I'm thinking that he's what will be used for Menasors body and that they've found a simple way to make the other units just slip on rather than spend money re-tooling the whole set. A sixth member, likely something small, may attach to the waist or chest to help provide camouflage but I wouldn't expect anything big for a 6th member and I don't think they are counting the Gestalt mode.
I could be so far out in left-field it's not even funny. I know exactly squat about the TFA figures but I do have to admit that the thought of a TFA Menasor does raise my interest quite a bit so I thought I would add my bit to the brainstorming process.

OFFENSIVE!

So if there is a sixth boxset member, you can definitely rule out anything bigger than a voyager for Motormaster. I'm thinking it's staying a 5 figure box though.

Sorry, none of you have guessed who it is. Remember, Botcon has a new story for the Animated universe, Motor Roller and Spastic were good guesses though.

####2 will be PAINFULLY obvious when it's shown.

Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaand no more outta me!

can i be part of the News Crew? puhleeeeeeeeez. even just for 24 hours. will pay money.

Just my personal theory but i remember a while back seeing that hasbro was planning a bumblebee redeco as fugitive waspinator. Correct if im wrong but that kinda fell to the wayside so my guess would be

Fugitive Waspinator with new head mold obviously. Which is more than we would have got via the animated line. And I know "he's not a stunticon" blah blah blah. They dont have a bee mold and it could easily be a stunticon.

Yeah, I'd stop holding my breath about that.

by **bagofshhh** » Wed Feb 16, 2011 8:03 am

Hmm. I wonder who will be Motormaster's Roller? :-?

News Credits: 1 · by **Heavy B** » Wed Feb 16, 2011 8:45 am

maybe blurs mode will be put to use after all

by **Vanishing Point** » Wed Feb 16, 2011 9:06 am

I am hoping, honestly for Motormaster to be the Wreck-gar Mold, looked at it for 30 minutes today and the details are just all there.

as for the mystery 6th...

it depends on the scale but looking at what we have mold wise that's not used and an additional remolded head

my I wish...
Menasor using Ultra Magnus the limbs could have character decos to simulate the gestalt while hidden and avoiding color clash vehicle mode
but... too big to really be in the set

Wasp using BB, simple head resculpt, cannon tie in character
but... kinda weaksauce for uber secret 6th

Cy-Kill using Oilslick, outside the box, fanboish
but... really Go-Bots

Nightracer using Blurr, yeah... going there the second botcon exclusive get's an update
but... to many ties to the old guard

by **Vanishing Point** » Wed Feb 16, 2011 9:12 am

also my opinion on Drag Strip...

I like it.

don't think or look at it too long though

Pink hair, tanktop, daisy dukes wearin... DRAG STRIP all I see is Poison from StreetFighter/FinalFight in all her/his glory

by **Burnin12** » Wed Feb 16, 2011 9:53 am

As cool as it would be for them to combine, I never really thought that was a possibility.... Aside from an eventual custom of course.
After hearing that there would be a 6th Stunticon. My first thought was we'll get the standard Stunticons and then I really thought we would get a Lockdown repaint (due to his size in Robot mode) and they would call him Menasaur.
Now that we know we're getting Lockdown as Wildrider I am guessing that the same thing will happen but I can see Menasaur being a repaint of Ultra Magnus.

by **Rated X** » Wed Feb 16, 2011 10:06 am

I hate both Lockdown molds. Why must he have a huge neck ??? I hope they remove the neck and just put a normal size in between his shoulders.

And for the mystery Stunticon, I want the Blurr mold as SPASTIC !!!!! :KREMZEEK:

Check the previous pages, Spastic and Motormaster's Roller are not it. Besides, the chance of Hasbro using "Spastic" just to do us a favor is next to nothing. Maybe Over-Run, the replacement name. And a Garbage Truck for Motormaster is just sacrilege.

Just a thought, the 6xth Sunticon may be the Attendee Exclusive. Breakdown number 5, in G2 colors? :lol:

by **Godzillabot Primal** » Wed Feb 16, 2011 12:20 pm

Sigh, I was really wishing it was going to be Soundwave remold, but at least it was not the Arcee mold because I think that would cause quite a few offensive calls to whoever sponsors these things, I mean come on a female TF named Wildrider :shock:
