First off, I finally found some Siege figures at retail that aren't just Battle/Micro Masters I didn't want, in that the Walmart here at school got in the Wave 1 Deluxes, so I have Cog now! I can't Weaponize anyone with him yet, as he's the only figure I have on-hand, but he's been really fun to just play with on his own, I love him. He looks awesome, his alt mode is easily the most Cybertronian of the 3 Siege figures I have, he's a new character for Generations compared to a decent amount of this line, and I'm just going to headcanon that he builds weapons out of himself when the situation calls for it anyway. What's that, a Con cut off his arm? Pick it up, reconfigure it into more weaponry, keep fighting, worry about it later.
Because I bought Cog, I figured I'd mess around with the code site, and it's alright (I'm glad Cog is listed with an actual job/position as Mechanic, he's not just a drone!), but I realized some stuff because of it. Me being me, I paid probably a bit more attention than I should have to the figure numbers on the site, because apparently that's what I do now, and I came to some interesting conclusions:
-The numbering system for WFC Siege (it seems like it is just Siege figures) goes up to at least 51
-The site does not list Masters of any kind with data entries, so any skipped numbers are likely those size classes
-If the numbering goes in both size class order and release order, with exclusives coming numerically after Leaders, then numbers 26-29 are either a combination of Wave 2 Leaders and exclusives or all exclusives that come out between Waves 2 and 3
-Of the 33 figure releases that would/should get codes by the site's criteria (everything bigger than a Micromaster), we know 28 of them from combining the officially revealed/teased/released figures with the 2019 product listings and the Walgreens Ratchet listing, although the evidence of another female combiner limb Greenlight provided means we can probably bump that number up to 29 (and this is assuming the Firestormers only have one code)
So 30-33 are mixed Masters (heh) that we have yet to see, as are 44-47, and unless I've missed something, there are 5 figures coming that are Deluxe class or larger we know absolutely nothing about, 4 if we assume one is Lancer. Thoughts?
