An idea for them would be to sell them in a 3 pack for leader class cost.

A box set of three deluxe class figures is not the same price as a leader. We know this because they made one for Reflector just a few years ago, and it's still available at its original cost at some online retailers.

There has been some leaked 2024 SS listings, and Swoop was included being Leader class.
Obvsly this is rumor, but Swoop happening is a no-brainer.
Imo, him being leader class is also a given at this point, but there seems to now be some possible evidence that this is in fact what’s happening.

Just an FYI, while it was rumours initially, it's no longer a rumour. We have actual listings from distributors and shipping manifest that Swoop is a leader.

You hit the nail here. SS86 was overflow from Kingdom when the Beasts joined the fray, and it continues as overflow from Legacy. Those SS86 in spirit and SS86 are the same thing. I would not expect all of those to get remade in SS86, especially given the smaller size of the Studio Series line in general compared to WFC/Legacy.

I didn't think so based on the SS leaks I've seen.
Other than him, there's still a chance of an Optimus Prime, and Soundwave...
I'm not sure there's much more this subline can deliver.
Till-all-R1 wrote:After seeing what the leader magnus consists of I honestly can't imagine why a Commander version is needed, other than to soak and extra $40 from the same character we've seen in the line countless time before. And most likely reusing existing version that previously sold for much less.
Maybe the trailer could be done better, but $40 worth?? Frankly it's a waste of a Commander slot IMO, and I'd rather see something more fitting go there. Heck, Bots like Jetfire are going to need a new Class if Leaders can become Commander with a very minor tooling addition. Though I guess they could just move him and the like to Titan Class. lol

Here's the thing, if they do in fact release an SS-86 Magnus, then everything released in Earthrise and Kingdom that could be used for SS-86 at the time is now fair game for a new SS-86 version. We thought SS-86 Starscream was a one-off to include the coronation accessories, but with Magnus too, it means, Cyclonus, Galvatron, Prime, Prowl etc... could ostensibly get an SS-86 release. And if they do do SS-86 commander Magnus, I'm willing to bet we'll get an SS-86 Prime based on the Magnus cab.
Heck it would not surprise me if they re-released Rodimus Prime in SS-86 packaging just for kicks.
So, there's still a fair bit this sub line can deliver.
