Nice! But probably wont be the molds we want them to be. Soundwave should be an Ironhide retool (either mold would be fine with me), but would probably be a repainted Netflix Soundwave. Blaster would be fine if the Kingdom figure is good. Wheeljack is an easy enough repaint of the ER figure. Ultra Magnus will probably be a repainted Siege or ER Magnus which isn't a great option and there's no telling if they'd retool his head, but if it gets us a Generations Delta Magnus figure at long last then I don't mind him not having the right head.
Off topic, but I lost track of this thread and wanted to add something to the GoBots conversation. All Hasbro got when they bought Tonka was the GoBots name and character names, that's it from the IP. Bandai got the toys and Hanna-Barbera (now Warner Brothers) got the character likenesses. Every time they've used a GoBots deco (Fracture/Crasher, Deadlift/Spoons) they changed the name, and when they used a GoBots name (Bugbite) they changed the deco. It's such a complicated mess, we'll never see Hasbro and WB on the same page let alone all three. I'd love to see Bandai reissue the original figures under Machine Robo if that's what it took to get it done.

Nice!
So they should get on it then.

Given that all of the current Pulse SG figures have the same color scheme as the previous SG versions, one would assume that any SG Thundercracker would be an Action Master oneNemesis Reformatted wrote:I have a couple questions. What would possess them to turn Action Master Thundercracker into SG Thundercracker? And are we really sticking to that?Is that permanently set in stone? It doesn't make any sense.

With SG Starscream coming I wanted to make a custom of Skywarp & Thundercracker. But I don't want that hideous Action Master TC in my collection. And I can't really accept it as SG since it's already the Action Master.
If they were to make an official SG TC is that abomination what they would give us?

The answer to that is very simple. They chose the Action Master Thundercracker toy colors for SG Thundercracker... so that the toy could double as a new toy of Action Master Thundercracker, which people at the time wanted (and still want to this day from newer Seeker molds).Nemesis Reformatted wrote:I have a couple questions.

How would the both of you feel if the inner bot had the skeleton face, while the fully-armored Magnus had the regular Magnus head? The original SG Magnus was just a repaint of an Optimus mold, after all, so if they gave the new face to the inner bot then you could just leave off the chest armor to have him look like the original or put it on for the full Delta Magnus. That seems like the best case scenario to me.AcademyofDrX wrote:For the same reason, I hope a hypothetical SG Magnus would not have the weird skull face but be a more traditional redeco to serve as a new Delta Magnus.

Also I'll be honest, in response to an earlier comment, I don't care what mold Soundwave uses as long as he's got his radical headband.
