RiD Megatron maybe?

Sodan-1 wrote:Sky Lynx??? Erm... Nope. Not buying it. Dark Steel looks pretty badass. Not sure it outshines Grimwing or Takara's upcoming version though. Ultimately for me it's good to know where all these will be available in the UK. Looks like I'll need to find a Tesco if I want Ultimate Predaking. At least I won't waste time fruitlessly visiting Toys R Us every week looking for him.

It's very possible, especially since there hasn't been a new Sky Lynx since... Cybertron Scourge Lucky Draw deco apparently.And nothing before that which I know of. I could certainly go for a CHUG Sky Lynx, the best and most glorious and powerful Autobot of all time.

And a 3D Battle-Card Game card.
What about Generations FOC Roadbuster?Wolfman Jake wrote:If these do come out with alternate names, I'd be MUCH more inclined to buy up these repaints. As it is, I'm already intrigued enough to pick them up and use them as placeholders for the "aligned" versions of the characters these seemingly homage from previous continuities. I'm this close to actually buying the Beast Hunters Bulkhead remolds as substitues for Roadbuster.

Exactly.![]()
Though, if those Wrecker repaints of the FoC Combaticons do ever see the light of day, Roadbuster will likely be too busy forming Ruination with the rest of his compatriots to pose on my Transformers: Prime shelf.

Yet, Hasbro was already working on their new continuity by the time High Moon first approached them about making a new video game (WFC).Wolfman Jake wrote:Honestly, Hasbro has been very tepid about really nailing down War for Cybertron and Fall of Cybertron as definitively part of their "modern/aligned continuity, going forward."

Dark Energon Wheeljack already covered that.Wolfman Jake wrote:Maybe a redecoed BH Wheeljack as Slicer?

Plus, wouldn't it naturally make sense for the first chapter of Hasbro's new continuity to be largely based on the first chapter of the brand, with later chapters in the story gradually evoking the later chapters of the brand, and then finally reaching the present day chapter (TF: Prime) that happens to be inspired by the brand's own present day chapter (the movies)? Just a thought.

Though, Takara's use of FOC Shockwave was in their Prime line instead, but same case with him being his Aligned self in Japan.The short answer is that, unfortunately for those of us who care about it, Hasbro simply has a different definition of "continuity" than the fans do.Dean ML wrote:the adoption of many of these designs by IDW in their ongoing G1 comic book stories, and the myriad of continuity conflicts and errors between various modern Transformers media, you really have to wonder how important this "modern continuity" is to Hasbro in the first place.

Indeed. That is a good question. The future's pretty questionable once Prime, TF4, and Rescue Bots season 2 come and go.Seibertron wrote:And what do you think will happen to the Aligned continuity now that the key people behind it are no longer there? Should be interesting to see how things play out over the next 5 to 10 years.
