Though, the mold's also been done as Gentei! Gentei! Strafe and BotCon 2014 Ferak.

All SG characters can be considered alternate universe counterparts, however due to their reversed and often radically different nature, it's less of a mental hassle to consider them separate characters. Your choice.
And he's spot on with Gentei Strafe and BotCon Ferak.

Well, since both Prowl and Smokescreen had already been done by Hasbro while Bluestreak was still left out by both Hasbro and Takara by the time CW ended, the fan demand for him did make him a suspecting candidate for the 4.0 mystery figure. The only reason there wasn't any hint of him in the fiction at the time is because Fun Pub wanted to keep him a surprise for as long as possible, and so waited until the toy was released before posting his prose story online.Zeedust wrote:Sabrblade wrote:Yeah, at this point, a curveball is what I'm expecting, rather than someone known from any of the final TCC fiction (OMAM, BWU, SG, etc.).
Let me rephrase: I think it might not be the kind of curveball you're expecting. I'm not sure I'd rule out anything just yet. Tell me honestly, was Bluestreak what you'd have guessed last year? Because my guess was that it'd be Rotorstorm, or possibly Quake.

2) Counterpunch & Double Pretender Optimus Prime
3) Toxitron & Double Pretender Megatron + Mystery Figure
Or at least have those 5.0 reveal posts moved over here since that thread was more of a general thread while this one is the main 5.0 thread.o.supreme wrote:Thanks . Maybe these could all be merged since TCC is coming to an end, and discussion seems to be limited

Its nice to see that Fractyl and Lifeline got their accesories. After Terrorsaur didnt get an HFG, I remember reading some concern about that.
I'm surprised withbthis pairing. I was expecting two sets to be the Pretenders+A Deluxe, and Toxitron plus whomever was left. But here's two of the figures I was wanting most right out of the gate.
And the top layer of foam to prevent scratching like what happened to Circuit and Scourge is good.
Sorry to see TFCC and TFSS go, but way to hit it out of the park!
