I'm hoping for a whole RID combiner.

Optimus Prime: Hotspot mold
Prowl: Breakdown mold
X-Brawn: Offroad mold
Sideburn: Deadend mold
Skid-z: Dragstrip mold.

Ouuuu, I really really like this.

Same!

Recently I realised I really need to cut back on unnecessary spending (as in stuff that doesn't fit in my Classics/MP collections), but this would be an insta buy no questions asked!

Then, if we get a CW Bruticus, I'd need a RID Ruination made out of it. :lol:

just looking at this is making me drool and this needs to 200% happen like right now

You can make it happen with their current fan poll.

This really makes me wish there was a tow truck combiner limb so that Tow-Line could be used instead of Skid-Z since, in Car Robots, Wrecker Hook (Japanese Tow-Line) was said to the 3 Car Robo Brothers' (Autobot Brothers') cousin. He's part of their family.

Aw man...I was hoping for an MTMTE Rodimus but I guess it sure shows me to expect Hasbro to not just stick to g1 retools. Is the new "leader class Ultra Magnus" I heard of just a recedo of Voyager Optimus too?

No.

At the very least he shouldn't be. We'll know more at the next Toy Fair, SDCC or BotCon, whichever comes first.

Toyfair. I am really intrigued about the remaining voyagers though. I am hoping for things that we really dont see coming like last year's Brainstorm (whom I am still looking for at retail)

My buddy Sidestreet over at whatswillustalkinbout.com sketched up his gut reaction and comical yet interesting speculation on the artwork revealing White Ultra Prime and Rodimus Legends class.

Ol' Unicron didn't see that comin'. I'd buy that, FOR SURE.

What Will is talking about? I didnt know there was a whole site based on my Thunderblast rants.

Combiner wars aside(Hopspot and Groove look amazing by the way) I think we still need a mew Cyclonus figure, hopefully a new mold or even just a repaint/retool

Anti, hence the rants. And only toy-wise since I didnt watch the show.

Ah, I can see that. I always kind of liked show Thunderblast. She was a villain, but ditzy and competent at the same time. We don't get that anymore.

Well, that without the insufferable "LOL RANDOM FTW" humor.

I could go on a rant of my own about modern Harley Quinn.

Or how she has no qualifications to be on the Suicide Squad except to be DC Deadpool.

I thought deathstroke was DC deadpool

Also that white combiner sketch is scary in a bad way.

I suppose technically speaking, Deadpool is Deathstroke + Ambush Bug.

Has anyone heard how they're planning on doing the four CW Autobots, Prowl, Ironhide, Mirage, (I forget who the other is)?

If they're just redecoing Stunticons with new heads, that's going to be a little lame. (look at the new legends Rodiums for example)
