Now Springer needs Sandstorm and Broadside. He's outnumbered 3 to 1.

It is basically confirmed that we're getting a Sandstorm from the same mold.

I think that was a digibash. The one fuzzy image we have appears to be a new mold. (Can't find the image. It was on Generations Metroplex's packaging.)
Edit: Here's the image from Metroplex packaging:
Here's the digibash:
I suppose they might be the same mold, but with extensive mold modifications.

I wouldn't worry too much about Sandstorm. This mold looks like it was made to be repainted as Sandstorm. (Why else would Springer's car mode look like a dune buggy with big, knobby tires?) As for Broadside, if they don't make him a Voyager (or bigger), and make his plane mode resemble a carrier-transported fighter plane (like the F-14), they're doing him a disservice.
As for Blitzwing, I'll miss his MiG-25 Foxbat jet mode. His Mitsubishi (model unknown) M.B.T. mode? Not so much. I hate that they forced him to keep the triple face/personality gimmick from Animated Blitzwing. To me, Blitzwing only hade one personality: loud-mouthed jerk.

Mine does not go down far enough to allow the cannon to flip up all the way onto the back. It looks like every other pic I have seen of him have the nose cone folded away much more than mine can.

I'm not sure if I have it correctly or not, but this achieved the look of the cannon that I wanted from the front to make it look like the G1 version of this toy (though it looks like from this angle that I had more clearance for the nosecone to point down further).

yes I have. That is what I meant, mine just won't go any farther. It even shows in the instructions that the nose cone is supposed to tuck away more.
