Besides I thought WFC was sufficiently covered, no?

It's very lacking scale wise with the only toys of the leader characters being deluxes.

Not sure I follow, care to elaborate?

The WFC listings reffer to the high moon games, is that what you are talking about?

War for Cybertron the game, not War for Cybertron the Generations series. The original figure line did only five figures, all Deluxes, the new releases are going to take scale into account and do more characters.

Okay thanks for the clarification, I was thinking of the Series.

I would give a kidney for a Titan Class Omega Supreme from that game...

RISE OF THE BEASTS IS NOT A SEQUEL

That sounds a conversation that should happen in the movie forums.

It is though? Or are you talking about the TF7 in the listings? If so that's how hasbro always referred to the movies internally, with Bumblebee taking TF6. After all, officially no live action movie has used a number in it's title.

Speak of the Devil...

well Chefatron did have a SS86 Snarl review up a few minutes ago, but he removed it. I wonder if Hasbro finally is putting the hammer down?

I've not ever played the game nor seen ay images, but wouldn't he basically resembled WFC-S29?
I kick myself for not getting that one because of the prices it now commands, but at the time I thought $80 was bit much not understanding the full scope of what a Commander scale was. lol

Tiny legs, HUGE arms, and a Cybertronian spaceship vehicle mode with no launch base.

Eak, sorry I asked. lol I'd have to pass on that, TBH.

This was back when Hasbro was still of the mindset of "Redesign everything! Never use an existing design from the 80s! Kids today don't care about the 80s! Screw G1-accuracy!"

I wouldn’t mind a little more of that mindset these days xD

I’m much more attached to the redesigns from the movies (and to a lesser extent Prime and WFC/FOC) than their G1 counterparts.

While my focus is always going to be geared towards G1 upgrades I'm not opposed to some of the new non animated or bay designs. Even though I'm not into ROTB Wheeljack as Wheeljack I can't deny it has some weird appeal to me, goofy glasses aside. I also kind of like Nightbird and even TLK Hod Rod and I very rarely like any of the Bay designs.

Seriously, give us new dudes in a new style. Fossilizers were the closest we got to that.

Three

I can't wait until they reinvent the Throttlebots. lol Not..

[Rodimus Prime]

I can't wait until they reinvent the Throttlebots. lol Not..

They could be done in the Selects line with redecos and minor retools of already existing figures. Wouldn't be that difficult. Now if you wanted all new molds for them, then yeah. You'll be waiting a while.

I think they meant reinvent like how the Dinobots were changed in Age of Extinction...which I would welcome, no problem with different takes on characters.

[Till-all-R1]

I just don't think Hasbro would bother since they never really caught on and were barely utilized well. I especially don't think they would incorporate the gimmick.

With o much to cover I'm sure several bots will get overlooked even if they are trying to do odd ones out like GoBots and such.

That one Platinum with upgrade kit sorta kinda works.
