Place your bets, people! Impactor or Bludgeon!
I'm thinking Bludgeon is next, simply because the bonus figure may be easier to package with Impactor.

I don't vouch for his info at all, just reporting from. Reasonable source.r

It would also mean they could show Wreckage on Impactor's instructions without ruining any surprises.RNSrobot wrote:RK_Striker_JK_5 wrote:So take this with a pound of salt, but a friend of mine knows some club people and apparently he saw a promo pic of the exclusive and it's bluestreak.

If that turns out to be the case, color me disappointed.
Besides Bluestreak, there's Jazz, Sideswipe, Hauler, and the mini-vehicles.gothsaurus wrote:Yeah, I agree it's not the best match... between why-didn't-they-shave-these-off sirensand the chest-is-not-made-of-a-car-hood robot mode. But I'd still have been seriously disappointed if they didn't crank out the third one of the trio.
Makes me think. Who else from the original Ark cast have they left out of the new combiner line? Hmmmm.

Would love all the mini bots though. If they re-did them as nicely as Wheelie....

I simply wish they'd re-used First Aid as either Ironhide or Trailbreaker.
Hoping for Bludgeon before July is out. I have four limbs longing for a torso lol.
gothsaurus wrote:hey RNSrobot,
I'm a little confused. They did already release a Trailbreaker and Ironhide based on that First Aid body style. Not sure what you're wanting... (?)
Sorry if I've missed something here.
gothsaurus wrote:oh yeah. there was a camper-back to that version of the mold. Agreed. I wish they had thought to do that. With the similarities with arms/legs, etc. I forgot all about the pick-up truck style back.
Maybe a third party will come out with a camper top.

At this stage of FunPub's final year, I'm less concerned about the timing of the remaining 4.0 figures, and even of the timing of 5.0 (since we've already ordered it), and more for when they're going to get orders for the Joe crossover set, Skyward, and the Only Human figures up.
We're running out of time....

Yeah, I think my point is that the club is a place for these toys(like Bluestreak) only AFTER they have fallen through the cracks.
But exactly as you said, the FIRST place I want to see them is store exclusives. But when Hasbro can't find a store to direct those toys to... and the line is over, THEN club is a great place to direct those "lost" characters we'd otherwise never get.
