Is this any surprise considering the massive ... ahem ... Scattorshot had?

That's taking Mass-shifting to a new extreme.

No plans for Beast combiners yet

Not true. I have a few friends with sources and CW Predaking is in the works, but no other beast combiners are... way to straight up lie, Hasbro. They totally could have teased us with that (but leave the identity a secret)

Are they seriously credible?

Yup. Known these guys for years. They see plans and prototypes and a lot of other stuff. They said the Titan Wars promo was an accident as Hasbro sent the artist the wrong concepts. Apparently Victorion was supposed to be more remolded with more whites and pastels

Huh; cool, did they say/could you ask if predaking is titan class?

Wish they had included more whites/ pastels, would've made a big difference visually.

I can't really ask since I don't know the Hasbro contacts directly... I could ask my friends, but you know how that goes, it can get annoying. If I were direct friends with them I would totally ask.
I want to say Predaking IS Titan Class... we talked about it at BotCon so I can't remember everything that was said, but yes I say it is safe for you to expect a Titan Class Predaking. Seriously, get pumped

Bummer, really just into scramble city, not sure I can afford devastator, much less equivalently two

After the last reveals of things like sky lynx and mp iron hide. The g2 repaints, fan built and computron figures all and all look like crap. With computron or what ever he is called being another silverbolt remold. I am starting to ask how many times are they gonna re-use silverbolt's mold? G2 stunticons dont look as bad.

The Fan built one is horrible colors with the heads from windblade and night beat. Putting a woman's face on a man's body doesnt make a woman it makes a transgender... Pun intended. I was hoping for so much more for the first female combiner.

One thing that makes me happy is from the pictures of sky lynx it totally looks like he can separate.

Bummer, really just into scramble city, not sure I can afford devastator, much less equivalently two

Now this is just me speculating, but I'm sure it won't hit until next summer, so you have a while to save

I guess was seriously hoping he could scramble with any possible future scramble beast combiners (you know they can't not do them) Just hope they get his proportions correct so that he isn't stretched like devastator was, with his absurdly long legs.

Predaking was never scramble city-styled though. He was always massive, and much larger than the Scramble City guys (as well as Devastator). A Titan Predaking actually makes more sense than a Titan Devastator, in terms of Scale.

After this morning's Breakfast Press event gallery for Transformers Robots in Disguise, the Hasbro Booth at San Diego Comic Con 2015 has put out some additional Legion class figures due late 2015/early 2016, and some of the figures we already knew about from previous news.

The Legions waves feature, for now, repaints of Strongarm into her Patrol Mode, Optimus into Ultra Magnus, plus Thunderhoof, Drift, and Windblade. Check out below a selection from the gallery thanks to site owner Seibertron, and click on any of them for the full show!

So? just cuz it once was doesn't make it absolute, immutable... besides it'd be cooler to mix and match a bunch of nasty beasts

The thing is that Predaking always has a sense of massiveness to him. Even in Prime, where he was a dragon and a single robot, he towered over the other bots. Having him be the same size as Superion or Menasor diminishes part of the thing that makes him Predaking. It's like an Optimus Prime that isn't Red & Blue (That never goes well).

I guess if they really wanted, they could make him big and still compatible with the smaller combiners. Then you could have Bruticus in "Arm-Wrestling Mode" or "Never skipped Leg Day at the Gym Mode"

Torchbearers?

Did some fans choose that ridiculous name too or is that all on Hasbro?

bolding mine

Of course PK was bigger than Devastator in G1, G1 Devy wasn't bigger than any of the Scramblers, except maybe Menasor, who for some reason was smaller than the rest. Dev only got a titan size because of his status of being first combiner makes him stand out in everyone who was a kid at the time's mind. If any combiner deserves titan treatment it's PK.

You know, this guy does make some sense here. There was not one new original mold shown today. It was 2 repainted combiners, one retooled combiner and a retooled torso.

RID Legions have at least two new molds.

Yeah I know, I still have that pic burned into my mind. It does need to be massive, so he can suplex superion

Right?

What I want out of a Titan Predaking is a figure big and sturdy enough that he can pick up Superion by the shins and beat Defensor senseless with him as a weapon.

Dude, seriously? SERIOUSLY? As a trans woman, i have to say. just NO. heck no. Trans is an adjective, not a noun. Quit dehumanizing. That's also a terrible and offensive excuse for a "pun".

Check out below a selection from the full gallery, which you can access by clicking on any image, and let us know what you think on this take on Computron in the new Betatron monicker. Do you think this even his final form..?

I hope the final Computron head has a mouth instead of a straight Superion repaint. C'mon hasbro/TT (well not TT I hope) don't be lazy!

Takara gonna have a great time making all the technobots new molds now plus scattorshot needs a new mold trust me on that

There's still the TT versions. remember what they did to Devastar?

SOME sense? He's hitting the nail square on the head
It was clever at first, but the CW re-tools are quickly taking the right royal wizz.

AND HERE WE GO!!!! LEGION CLASS WINDBLADE
