Aye, if they were really gonna do a boxset they should've packaged characters with relevance to each other.
Like, you could put Nautica with Nightbeat, Getaway, Overlord and a MTMTE-styled Hot Rod with a new head (I know they all have individual retail releases; just as an example if this was gonna be the only way you could get them). It'd still be really annoying if you only want one of them, but at the very least you're more than likely to want all of those at some point - maybe not all at once, but most people would want them for MTMTE collections.
See, like this.
At least for those botcon sets (which are not standard retail, unlike say Victorion) there is fiction then that established them together. Putting those guys together would make almost no sense. I like the idea of putting guys together that make sense like that. A MTMTE styled box set could have been really cool and have gotten us some characters that otherwise would get no toy or wouldn't see individual release.
I think it would have been great to tie in with the big showdown in MTMTE - it was a significant moment in the comics, and would have offered an excuse to release some sort of non-standard versions of standard characters. They could have redeco'ed Leader Class TM Optimus as "Ultra Maximus" (with Minimus Ambus forming his head). They could have included extra Titan Master's with robot modes that look like Rewind and Swerve so that they could operate his shoulder cannons, just like the comics. The Voyager class for the box could have been Autobot Megatron, and the deluxes could have been Nautica, Hot Rod, and Chromedome. Want some more variation? Make use of some clear parts or bright colors to make Megatron anti-matter charged and the deluxes super-charged or battle-damaged, just like in the comic.

Well I'll be. That's a good find! nice little un-advertised feature. It does nothing for his elbow articulation, sadly.

I've been treating TR Galvatron like Armada Megatron - a guy going around and forcibly collecting the little power up dudes. He's got four of them in or on him:
- One on his noggin (obviously)
- One in his cannon, but has it flipped back rather than propped up, so that the little guy is 'trapped' in there.
- One in his cockpit, on his back
- One in his hand being shoved into his chest - the Titan Masters' little arms can be gripped as a 5mm post.
I could probably fit two in his chest, it's surprisingly roomy in robot mode.

Nobody said that? It's pretty excepted that most of the figures would be repaints or remolds. That being said I do think that the clones will get their own molds because that's the only way they could work well.

You probably haven't seen the digibashes of Blurr and Brainstorm thenThey look similar enough for the Clone gimmick to work, I mean, BotCon 2014 "Pounce" and "Wingspan" out of both types of RiD Vehicon got away with it.

Well, even on the originals there were some clues, like the wings and big wheels...

This would be pretty awesome.

Thanks

i know where past this but how did you do that

Yeah, I saw that. But this one has really no tangible source. I still wouldnt be surprised if they all happen though and i will have a ton of fun right now breaking it down to see how they could all be issued within next year in the model we currently have.
Deluxes
•Getaway
•Hot Rod
•Doublecross
•Triggerhappy
•Quake
•Croc
•Topspin
•Kup
•Perceptor
•Crosshairs
•Slugslinger
•Misfire
•Needlenose

Only 14 out of 16 possible, it could be that those I listed in the titan master section would be here instead.

Exactly, it's only to give an idea

Hands and feet aren't a big deal since Computron got unique hands and feet. The wrist/arm gun and double back canons (used for lion mode) were the same piece, just backwards. Or do you mean the ones from the cartoon? Those weren't on the original toy so I don't feel any need for them on the figure. They could do something simplified by giving him both a single barrel and double barrel gun that can be combined for Predaking. My main concern would be how big they can make Divebomb's wings and if they can give him a proper sword.
