Cybertron Hotshot is cool to see, but since I'm the weirdo that actually likes the Selects Hound-repaint Hotshot, I'm actually more excited about the potential Excellion repaint here.
Leader Soundwave is very weird, because it's the only figure for next year we have a listing for that
doesn't specify which iteration of the character it is (other than the Strongarm repack, but she didn't specify universe in her first listing either). Gears, Sureshot, Sandstorm, and Deluxe Optimus all say G1 in the listing, so the lack of it here is either a weird oversight, or it's like Animated Prowl just being listed as Prowl and it isn't actually G1 Soundwave (or it is a repack like y'all are thinking, but then there would be 2 G1 Soundwaves in Legacy and this listing would still be weird for not saying repack). For the sake of not getting my hopes up though, I'm just going to assume it'll be G1 Soundwave so I can't be disappointed if it isn't.
Also, is it just me or do we have a surprisingly high amount of Leader listings? UNI already has BW Tigerhawk, G1 Sandstorm, Armada Galvatron, and now mystery Soundwave, and there's still that mystery Evolution Optimus that we don't know the identity or release plan for either (which is part of why I keep speculating that Evolution might have 5 waves).

At first I thought this would be revealing wave 4, but the wording of the announcement makes it sound like the focus will mostly be on Rise of the Beasts, so I'm guessing this stream will just announce more exclusives for Legacy instead, perhaps some Toxitron stuff, and wave 4 could be saved for SDCC or a similar event. Either way, I'm looking forward to a pre-order going up for Dreadwing.
I don't know, we've already seen leaks for four Evolution wave 4 figures now, they might want to get out ahead of the rest of them.
Also the pipeline reveals from the last stream were Legacy Wave 4, and both times they've done pipeline reveals thus far those reveals have been the meat of what was shown in the immediate next stream.
If anything I would think they would want to save Studio Series reveals for SDCC since we just had a summer theatrical release to capitalize on.

A Marvel-colored release of the Netflix Soundwave set was rumored/leaked as a exclusive alongside the first mention of the now-revealed Miner Megatron, we just don't know where/how it's potentially releasing unless it's part of the Comic 2-pack's currently-unknown contents.
