I don't see why we wouldn't get a blue Rumble/Frenzy, considering we're getting Laserbeak, a red Rumble/Frenzy, Ravage, and a Soundwave. Unless HasTak has decided to toy with us completionists and only give us the red one.
Look no further than Prime, we only got a Blue Rumble in that one. Japan got both Frenzy and Rumble in their typical colors (Japan follows FIBRIR). There's a few other occasions where we only got one of the pair, so it's kind of not a given that we'll get both.

Probably, but it'll say Frenzy on the package.
...not gonna say where I stand on that debate.
Blue is Rumble, and black and red is Frenzy. I dunno why the heck they keep switching the names, but it's annoying.
Because that in itself
is the mix-up. The toys, marvel comic, picture books, and other supplementary G1 media had FIBRIR. The cartoon got them confused and this could have been the only instance, but its popularity has led to FIRRIB in toylines, other G1 media, etc and that's why there's a debate. Even Japan, when they dubbed the G1 cartoon, switched the names so the blue robot was Frenzy and Rumble was red, thus making it essentially ONLY the American G1 cartoon to do the reverse until about the 2000s.
