Fellow Seibertronians, some interesting news has surfaced, thanks to Survivefan23, we now know that Hasbro has trademarked the name 'Combiner Force'.

Trademark Name: Combiner Force
Trademark ID: 86923603
Status Date: Mar. 03, 2016
Description: Toy action figures, toy vehicles and toy robots convertible into other visual toy forms
Owner Name: Hasbro, Inc.

So what do you make of this? Do you think that this will be the final part of the Prime War trilogy? Do you think this may include the beast combiners, or some of the Japanese combiners, like Raiden? Let us know in the comments below.

It's probably just a trademarkable term for "combiner team". For example, an Abominus would be formed from the "Terrorcon Combiner Force".

If box sets like Computron become the norm for combiners for the rest of Prime Wars, this new term could also be a new size class to represent the sets. If that means more combiners, them I'm all for it!

Interesting, another way to look at it would be as a smaller line maybe combinable legion class figures. Though giving combiner box sets their own new line does sound most likely. We shall find out soon enough.

Might be a way to continue having combiner teams out during Titan wars. So as to have them folded into that series rather than have a competing 'wars' series.

A 'Take on the Titans with combiner force!' Kind of thing. Leo wouldn't be surprised if they do legion class combiner sat some point

I would appreciate a chance to get some of the missing stand alone characters sometime - but as previously mentioned this may just be a name for boxed sets and not single carded or single boxed toys at all.

But a small sub-line that allows for the likes of Bluestreak, Sideswipe, Ratchet, Hoist, and so on would be nice to have for sure.
