Hopefully 2023 has some more bayverse figures but if the rumors of galvatron and the fallen do come out in 2022, it will be a great year.

If I'm remembering right, that rumor went through 3 different iterations so far:EvasionModeBumblebee wrote:Emerje wrote:Didn't we get a leak about a bunch of exclusive Bee movie jets coming out?

According to listings, Thundercracker is going to be a mainline release as well, in voyager wave 3 next year along with AOE Galvatron.
Other than that I don’t think we’ve heard anything.

1. The initial mention was Thundercracker, Skywarp, and Thrust as exclusives
2. Thrust gets shifted to the mainline & replaced in the rumor by Sunstorm and Redwing
3. Retail listing for Thundercracker appears with no commentary from leakers
They were mentioned on one of the 2-3 leak threads that TFW had that got shut down by their mods months ago, which is where a lot of correct stuff like the Kingdom Battle Across Time sets and the Shattered Glass line were first rumored and where all this Seeker talk started to begin with, and there's a user over there that's compiled all of the current leaks from there and elsewhere in a list on their Legacy thread. With Thrust and now Thundercracker as retail figures, the remaining BB Seekers that were mentioned are a Walmart-exclusive Skywarp, a BBTS-exclusive Redwing, and an EE-exclusive Sunstorm. The first rumor had Skywarp at Walmart, Thrust at I think Amazon, and Thundercracker at Target with no mention of the other 2, then when Thrust became a retail figure Redwing and Sunstorm were added to the rumor. Considering 2/5 have now been moved though, I currently am kinda just waiting to see what happens rather than sitting here going "Sunstorm is confirmed and releasing this way and this is a fact".D-Maximal_Primal wrote:Nemesis Primal wrote:If I'm remembering right, that rumor went through 3 different iterations so far:EvasionModeBumblebee wrote:Emerje wrote:Didn't we get a leak about a bunch of exclusive Bee movie jets coming out?

Hold up, when were Redwing and sunstorm rumored? I haven't heard those 2. I know there was talk of Sunstorm when that desaturated Starscream was used for a Premium series photoshoot, but otherwise I haven't heard a thing about those 2.
I heard Skywarp and TC were the other 2. I'm thinking Skywarp will be an Amazon exclusive
We had this argument already in a different thread.Rodimus Prime wrote:Sunstorm should come out of the ER mold.
I'm not arguing, I'm making a statement. I wouldn't care if the Siege mold or Bee Blitzwing mold also got a Sunstorm deco, I just want to see the ER mold get 1 as well. I still don't see why all seeker molds don't get one, repaints are very easy, and I'm sure a lot of us would have preferred Sunstorm to either Hotlink or the Sparkless.Nemesis Primal wrote:We had this argument already in a different thread.Rodimus Prime wrote:Sunstorm should come out of the ER mold.

Very much a possibility. But why? I don't recall Sunstorm ever rocking a cape and crown in any fiction. I think he had it in the MP-11S release, but that's it. Unless I missed another Sunstorm that also had it.Sabrblade wrote:I wonder if the reason Hasbro's been holding off on making Sunstorm is because they're waiting to use the Coronation Starscream tooling after that figure's release first.
Fair enough.Rodimus Prime wrote:I'm not arguing, I'm making a statement.
Sparkless I agree on, Hotlink no though, doing any combination of Sunstorm, Hotlink, & Bitstream without all 3 of them existing is wrong to me and doing Sunstorm instead of Hotlink wouldn't have changed that level of completion.Rodimus Prime wrote:I'm sure a lot of us would have preferred Sunstorm to either Hotlink or the Sparkless.
To give him special treatment, since he's the most famous of the non-main six Seekers.Rodimus Prime wrote:Very much a possibility. But why?

Which is why he should have been the 1st repaint released IMO.Sabrblade wrote:To give him special treatment, since he's the most famous of the non-main six Seekers.Rodimus Prime wrote:Very much a possibility.
