As a reminder (because I guess that's just what I do in this thread these days), we've got like a wave and a half's-worth of 2024 SS listings, so we know that Leader Swoop and another Wreck-Gar retool are on the docket, plus the potentially-mislabeled listings of "MV6"/Bumblebee Core Rumble, Deluxe Sunstreaker, and Leader Megatron (and possibly Voyager Shockwave, but I think that one is actually correct since Shockwave was actually in that film).
Now as for what a
second 86 Rumble would actually mean when we
already have the 86 Frenzy listing for this year, beats me.

RID Megatron maybe, just due to sheer number of modes (and the parts/engineering required)?
I don't think it would be anymore than Transmetal Megatron.
That is, unless he'd be significantly bigger.
I mean, I'm not confident on it, he's just the only one I could think of that could hit the right combination of size + complexity/parts count. I haven't seen much RiD, but I'm pretty sure from what I remember that Megs was taller than Scourge (who we have currently at Voyager-ish height) and around the same size as Optimus in his armored/combined modes or just slightly shorter, and that Optimus would almost certainly be a Commander release himself at this point, so I'm thinking that height plus the engineering and parts count to hit anywhere between 6-10 alt modes could get it up there.
