I didn’t know this, but really hope it’s true…
And other than Swoop, I’m really anxious to find out who else will be released in SS86.
As far as characters seen in the movie, there can’t be very many who are actually in need of an update.
Along with Sunstreaker, I’d love to see Soundwave, Astrotrain, & Shockwave in SS86.
All of them have already been done, and brilliantly. Appart some kinks in Astrotrain, the other two are perfect. Unless you ask for some reissue under the SS86 label? My guess is Soundwave (Netflix edition, of course) could be a "leader" if they toss into the box the core class SS86 Red Frenzy I guess.

Maybe touch up Sideswipe to look more like the Lambo of the original toy?
Not an accessory, it has to be built in.

Not likely to happen as that would require a complete retool of the leg portion of the figure to incorporate the spoiler and probably a tab and hinges to have it fold away.
A removable spoiler seems more feasible since it just requires a couple of peg holes on the back of the car. It's an easier change to make.
Also, don't think Sideswipe was in the 1986 movie at all. Not even in background cameo like Sunstreaker had.
I think there's a bit of confusion going on here.chuckdawg1999 wrote:Overcracker wrote:chuckdawg1999 wrote:Sabrblade wrote:All the Kingdom Sideswipe toy really needs is a spoiler accessory for his car mode.chuckdawg1999 wrote:Sowndwave76 wrote:Munkky wrote:We know from recent leaks that Sunstreaker is coming to Studio Series 1986 next year, so perhaps it would be a good idea to bring out Sideswipe again for a chance at owning both of them?

The spoiler wasn't part of the animation model?

The spoiler existed in the car model for the show. It just kind of absorbs into the legs when he transforms, so is almost not visible in robot mode at all.
Also, looking at Golden Disk Sideswipe, the panels where the spoiler would go, fold into the leg to allow for the knee bend, so there's no way to attach a non-removable spoiler there.
Also, there's the question of how close to the actual Lambo they want to get. Hasbro may simply be avoiding getting close to the IP infringement line with the spoiler or actually requiring a license to use the actual car model.

EE seems like a sweet deal though, so I'll keep that in mind. Probably go for both Tarn and Snarl on there

Just following up on this. My local Target just got another case of LE Wave 1 Voyagers, pic taken this morning.
Maybe its just my geographic area? But I can find Voyagers easily. Even WM has started stocking them again (Saw Twincast & Metalhawk at a WM on Tuesday), but I can't find any Legacy Evolution Core or Deluxe in store if my life depended on it. (thankfully it dosen't).
AcademyofDrX wrote:Third party kits like the Nonnef one solve the problem by having a split spoiler attach to the outside part of the legs and fold back to that point. It would require retooling and additional parts, but it's not impossible. I don't think Hasbro would take that approach, though. SS86 Ironhide had common engineering with the Earthrise version but was a new mold, and I would expect the same thing here if they decided to revisit Sideswipe.

I actually picked up a 2nd Grimlock and Sludge from Amazon. Just need a 2nd Slag. I'm going to give them as gifts to a friend who has a 5 year old son who loves robots and dinosaurs.

I find myself enjoying the figure more than I did Kickback. If you see Shrapnel, grab one to complete your Insecticon collections.
