What if we're going about this all wrong and the next five are a group of beasts but who aren't a combiner team? That could open up the possibilities more. We just need to think of who, historically, has been a five-member team with beast modes but not necessarily a combiner.


The Dinobots, as they weren't originally a combiner team before The Beast Within Power of the Primes.

This is the only one i can think of right off the bat.

Or maybe we're about to get some Quintesson servant repaints (Alicons, Gnaw).

Or Maybe it's Sky Lynx and a new team of smaller beasts.
I just thought of another five-member team with Beast Modes, but it's one that I don't expect it to be:

The Destrongers!

Gigatron, Gelshark, Goosher, Gaskunk, and Gildor.

Ya know, that is also a good one! Would be nice to see some RiD stuff like that
And since we're in the primordial universe that seems to mix everything together, that could open the doors for groups outside of just G1 universes. Are there any five-member beast-moded groups in the Unicron Trilogy, Animated, the movies, or Aligned stuff?

Motto: "There are no impossibilities in the multiverse, just small minds unable to comprehend the possibilities"
Weapon: Armor Axe
Closest Animated would get would be including the 3 dinobots, Waspinator, and Blackarachnia.

Cybertron had the jungle Planet with Scourge, Brimstone, Snarl, Undermine, and Backstop. You could also count Leobreaker.

Not sure about Energon or Armada, I don't think there were 5 member beasts.

Prime only had Predaking, Sky Lynx, and Darksteel.

RiD2015 had a bunch of beast-related bots they could run with too

Energon had Terrorcons. Battle Ravage, Divebomb, Cruellock, Insecticon, Scorponok, and their redecos.

Prime's toyline had lots of different Predacons.

Since this manga is also making heavy use of some toy-only versions of characters, that further opens up things from outside of just cartoons. 8-)

Would be awesome to see them use more non-cartoon guys.

What if, hear me out, what if the primitives are a beast figure from each of the major franchises? You can have an RiD2001, a UT, an Animated, a Prime/WFC/FOC/RiD2015 figure, and either a BW or G1 (they could fall under the same category too, since BW is set in G1)

I'm still fairly certain these guys are a preview of the next five figures in SELECTS. I could be wrong, however and I often am so...

Very true, and I have no idea where this could go with those 5 sets of eyes. It is fun to speculate though. I can't help but think of Call of the Primitives episode of Sunbow G1, but who knows. I love all of Sakamoto's stuff.

Pretty sure that was the intention since Primacron's assistant from that episode was retconned into being the Japanese G1 cartoon version of Primus, and Primus here is working against Primacron in an age before he becomes said assistant and is now summoning Primitives in the same manner that he will again later on in that episode.

But whether these five Primitives are another combiner team or just five non-combining beast bots is anyone's guess until the next chapter comes out.

I mean, what do you mean by "released as the Super Megs chapter"?

Thus far, there have been 14 chapters released online for this storyline:
  • 1 for Star Convoy
  • 5 for King Poseidon
  • 4 for Super Megatron
  • And 4 for God Neptune
We've yet to hear anything about the next chapter, or even what the next figure will be. But at the moment, both Super Megatron and God Neptune have yet to see release, so we may have to wait until after at least Super Megs gets released before we get any further chapters.

I was referring to the 4 Super Megatron ones.

EDIT: Anyone think those six sets of eyes teased are the new selects combiner with the Volcanicus head?

The G-2 War was fought in the 2030s. This is after that in 2050.

And here, they're called the Selectors.

God that old age Spike and Carly hits me in the feels.

Them, Sparkplug and Chip are probably some of the best human character we have had in the franchise or at the very least some of the most likable, these are characters I like better then most Transformers (including others from the same show).

To see them as old aged is kinda trippy.

Weapon: Saber Blade
Next two parts of the Volcanicus comic:

https://takaratomymall.jp/img/goods/4904810172079/comics_second-vol02.pdf

TONS of cameos from the Siege and Earthrise lines, and even a few from Power of the Primes.

Plus, Grimlock combines with the Technobots as his limbs and Scattershot as a handheld cannon weapon to form a new combiner named "Volcaticon" (Volcanicus + Computicon; "Computicon" is Computron's Japanese name).
