Gonna be interesting to see how Clampdown works out, seeing as how this means he's gonna be getting two different releases in the exact same release avenues as Deep Cover. I'm still waiting on Sandstorm though, so here's hoping he shows up somewhere regardless to his absence here!

The summary in question was just a post on this thread so everyone would be on the same page regarding clues/info. I'm not on the news team, so it was never gonna be a news post.Jtprime17 wrote:If you front page this info, I’d appreciate it if you don’t mention me. Thanks!
As for Sandstorm and Buzzsaw. Supposedly they’re legit I just haven’t seen their listings.
I'm assuming the Sandstorm that would be showing up would be the BW one as a Kingdom Scorponok repaint, as that was what Evil Eye originally mentioned and the Machine Wars one would require a repaint of a different Selects figure, but I am trying to keep the possibilities open until someone specifies.Jelze Bunnycat wrote:Cybertron Mode and Earth Mode Clamp Down?
And we really have two Sandstorms to consider:
Transformers BotCon Exclusives Sandstorm Gallery
Transformers Machine Wars Sandstorm Gallery
"Sandstorm" was always just an alias. His real name was "Scorpius".Nemesis Primal wrote:Also, yay Sandstorm! Assuming it is the BW one, I'm gonna call him Sandcrawler in my collection/canon to try to keep the Sandstorm name reuse to a minimum.

True, but I kinda prefer Sandcrawler now that it's in my head. Plus, it kinda fits with Hasbro's habit of taking names from their other IPs to give names to both new TFs (Lift-Ticket, for instance) and TFs in need of new names due to lost trademarks (the ever popular Shockblast), even though I assume Hasbro probably doesn't have enough authority over their Star Wars rights to use that practice like this.Sabrblade wrote:"Sandstorm" was always just an alias.

I'm not expecting it, but I'd love to see this be based on the "Dirgeclonus" coloring error in FFoDBig Grim wrote:Would Cyclonus’ Armada be him in a toy accurate deco?

Considering the Target listing for an exclusive Legacy "Silverstreak" that popped up with all those mainline Legacy listings, I'm pretty sure he isn't Selects.Rodimus Prime wrote:Ok so Bluestreak is coming in 2021 then?
