That's right, the answer to getting Multiforce into Generations is combining it with Energon for a full on line wide double combiner line (similar to what we previously saw in the likes of Combiner Wars and Titans Return).
The idea is that some figures would either be based on the Multiforce characters and repurposed into an Energon character while others would be based on Energon figures and then repurposed as a Multiforce character. This would include Decepticons being able to "Powerlinx", too, and with enough repaints (everyone loves endless combiner repaints!) between mainline, Selects, and store exclusives we could possibly get Landcross and Energon Autobot and Decepticon combiners. Here's what I'm thinking:
Multiforce and possible retools-
Wing -> Starscream
Waver -> Decepticon Mirage
Dash -> Hot Shot
Tracker -> Snowcat
Mach -> Jetfire
Tackle -> Ironhide
And the final six-
Inferno -> Demolisher (dumptruck)
Prowl -> Cliffjumper
Sharkticon -> Sluggslinger
Don't ask me how they would combine, I'm no engineer. Some of these could probably be unique molds, the real focus is on those first six. But that's nine base molds for 18 figures and three combiners. It would take care of all the figures for a three wave line and then some. Scale be damned!
Oh, and paired names:
Hot Shot + Inferno = Hotferno
Jetfire + Ironhide = Firehide
Prowl + Cliffjumper = Prowljumper (??)
Starscream + Mirage = Starrage
Demolisher + Snowcat = Democat
Sharkticon + Slugslinger = Sharkslinger (!)

That is crazy, my wife purchased that exact Lego set for herself when we were on vacation a couple months ago.... I wonder if she will let me experiment.

I would love a Selects Armada Fortress Maximus.

Yes. Fortress Maximus was in Armada for a few frames, in 1 of the earlier episodes. His actual name was Peritus Maximus. I didn't remember that earlier.-Kanrabat- wrote:Rodimus Prime wrote:Is that a scene from Killing Jar? Or Nightmare Planet?

ARMADA Fortmax?
What?

One or two...

AllNewSuperRobot wrote:I'd like to see an "Evolution" line. Take one character and have a series of figures depicting how they developed over time. Cheetor, for example. From the Axalon rookie to defacto Maximal Leader by Beast Machines.
Alternatively, for those that haven't had that much character growth. How their design has changed over time. Sunstreaker, for example. From G1, G2 to IDW Headmaster.

But it didn't transform in the movie.

Plot twist.
That character is a COMPLETE Schizophrenic with both personas completely unaware that the other exist. When one "goes to sleep", the other "wakes up".
But guess what?
There is a 5th mode that is more of an abomination than anything. THAT one is the "real" person, a monster who just enjoy chaos.
won't do it.

But I will.
