I have a quick question, Would you buy power core combiner drones if they came out in packs of 3-4but all different colors.

I would, but the kids wouldn't if there was no figure to connect them to.

What if there were some drones and a mini-con?

I would like drone packs to reflect colors from previous line combiners, like a Bruticus pack(grey RID camo) etc...

i like the PCCs, but i feel like the "expandability" factor is a little under explored... i think its a neat little trick that they've added mini-con posts onto the mini-cons themselves, but what _really_ would've gotten me going about them would've been if the commanders themselves could become limbs so you could form 5 commanders together, & _then_ add drones & mini-cons on top of that :-?

Yes, I would, if the price was right. I would pay $9.99 for a 4-pack of drones, especially if they're repainted and have their factions switched, and mix drones from different sets. It would make it more fun to create new combined forms.

Sounds like a good idea. So far I haven't interested in any 5pk besides Grimstone but I do need some decent drones for my son's Huffer.

I'd love to see a Hasbro release of Targetmaster inspired PCC Minicon repaints as Takata is apparently doing with the Transformers United line in Japan.

I'd prefer if the drones were all animals. Ravage was always more interesting compared to Roller. A Top Heavy homage would be nice.

BETTER question. would you buy drones if each one could only become one specific limb, but look better with more articulation? example, a right arm is a right arm only, but actually looks and moves like a damned arm!

Hell No Twice!

And how is that a better question?

People complained years ago about the non transforming Actionmasters. These days we get Robot Heroes, Stealth Force or whatever it's called and now Drones that are pretty useless without a commander? At least Actionmasters had character AND looked like Transformers unlike a lot of modern bots. Plus you didn't get the same characters regurgitated from Unicron's maw.

I don't think 3-4 is enough Drones for a pack, considering they already come in fours PLUS a Commander figure. I'd like at least 6 in an all-Drone pack.

I would. I'd love to be able to get the Rallybots without having to bring in Double Clutch with them (they'd be repaints of course, but that would be fine.) I'd also liketo see other arm and leg options. Including a Minicon with the packs is a great idea as well.

Fun fact: the Drones are the perfect size for the G1 City bots. Most of them work with features such as Trypticon's launch ramp.
