Un/Fortunately, I don't think HasTak has interest in any MP Silverbolt, G1, Fuzor or Eagle.
I'd call it unfortunately. Not that I would say they're on the same level, but people did say the same thing about Lio Convoy. Never know, they might throw us a bone someday.

The difference is, Silverbolt isn't a Convoy. Not forgetting a large part of the design team at HasTak and the fanbase, do have a fetish for all things that share that aesthetic. A shared stance with 3P also. They barely touch Beast Era as it is, but if it isn't a Megatron or Optimus, they're not interested either.
As for a potential MP Transmetal line, the scale of a Season Two cast, relative to their Season One counterparts, would be too cost prohibitive EG TM Megatron is at least twice his Season One size and Rampage towers over that.

AllNewSuperRobot wrote:Indeed. No doubt that is the reality behind the mandate. Personally I think all the Transmetal designs are infinitely superior to their Season One counterparts. In particular, Megatron, Rattrap and Tarantulas. Now would I like to see the TM's make it into the MP line? Yes.

william-james88 wrote:I wouldn't. The transmetal line was really special by being the very first time ever in Transformers history where the toys and the on screen models were a match. The appeal of an MP is to have something we never had before, a perfect representation of the character, but we have all that here. To me, an MP might even mess things up by over complicating the brilliance of the initial toy designs.

Which of the 5 mins of on screen presence got you invested in Tigerhawk?

Know the possibility is slightly heightened by his redeco potential.
AllNewSuperRobot wrote:Silverbolt and Quickstrike were both the worst characters in Beast Wars and the least interesting Fuzor designs. I'd love to see a fully realised Air Hammer, Sky Shadow or Injector. Much like the rest of the non-show base line. Or even the two Gestalts.

That seems a tad steep. No UK price sources yet, but I doubt he will equal MP Dinobot over here.

It's not attached to his chest. It's the virtual cube puzzle Tigatron had to solve when he hacked into the Preds' base to learn about the alien Golden Disk in "Before the Storm".Rodimus Knight wrote:It's been a while since I've watched Beast Wars, but what episode is being referenced with Megatons head attached to Tigatron's chest?
