Ultra Magnus could simply just be shiny painted Magnus like Megatron that's my main guess anyways.

Yeah, that's a likely possibility. It would kinda feel like a copout on Hasbro's part, though.

Who knows, maybe they'll throw a curveball and put him in RiD Magnus colors.

If we get Actionmasters, I'd want them to transform, just because some of them were designed to. They'd definitely need to be more solid, maybe paneled to avoid transformation gaps, but giving them the option doesn't change the fact that you don't have to transform them. You can keep them in bot mode forever, but it's nice to have options

[blackeyedprime]

For action master redos I'd like them to be smaller in size but more and have vehicles over having transformations but legends sized figures/transformations with more posability would work too (kinda like the prime figures wheeljack and ship etc meets third party hotsoldiers ).

[ZeroWolf]

Aren't the Super7 releases more akin to Action Masters? Plus we do have have the Flame Toys kits (though more pricey). I can't see Hasbro mass retailing Action Masters as they were. Characters who where Action Masters only before though... Yeah I think they'll reuse them eventually, giving them alt modes.

[Evil Eye]

That Megatron actually looks really, really nice. Like, it takes a somewhat "eh" looking mold and makes it into an awesome one. If this COVID nonsense ever ends I might get him.

I think the spoiler is that he'll have a decepticon symbol.

This is my thinking as well. I'm more interested in seeing Rung funnily enough, be interesting to see what the show does with him. If he's actually in it of course and not just being shoved on with UM

I've actually hedged my bets on this. I'm always up for more cons. Oddly enough, I will wait to open up mine until I see the deco from some others first. If I'm not interested, I'll just return it. (Of course I say this now, but my lack of willpower may certainly override this sentiment once I have it in hand.)

Ultra Mangus - a traitor? The most Autobot-y Autobot of Autobots? That's a terrible idea.

But I guess it'll make for a cool figure.

Not a traitor, pretending to be Decepticon to infiltrate their ranks.

Yeah, exactly. It wouldn't even be the only one in the line since Mirage is doing the same.

Anyways, I found this cool post on Facebook and wanted to share:

I had an epiphany last week... Instead of pay however much for the Phantom Strike Squadron, why not make my own. I scooped up some extra Battle Masters for cheap and did just that. About $15 later and I am beyond happy with what I have.

Oddly enough, ??? is sort of a reversed colors version of Heartburn and Heatstroke with slightly darker blue for the torso and lighter for the rest instead of the other way around.

This right here. Add the gimmick, but they don' need to if you won't want them to. Just like the Quintesson, you don't have to transform it at all, but the option is there.

Also, to each their own, but I would prefer to see Starscream and the coneheads, no TC or SW this time around. I'd rather see things like Artfire take the place of one of those guys.

[Evil Eye]

I'd love to see more Action Master updates (preferably transforming), Krok from TR is still on my want list and I'm slightly mad Perceptor never got a Mainframe retool.

pictorial review of Netflix Megatron

Late post, but thanks for the review! This deco actually looks pretty awesome. I kinda wish they had used the alternate "miner" head, it would have made this deco hard to resist.

I'm still sad we most likely won't get a miner redeco of Siege Megatron that replaces the tank gun with a drill weapon.

But would it have made sense? From my understanding, this is supposed to be Megs as a battle-hardened warlord.

[Stargrave]

For all his high points and shortcomings, he’s wearing polka dot panties. Cheetor-print chonies. Longrack long johns. Oy vey.

[1984forever]

In case they don't then I already have a blue and black/purple tetrajet on the squad anyway.

Also, the listing you mention which I'll put below doesnt really mention who it was, so it could be anyone:

Voyager Seeker 2-Pack 477915

Late post sorry.

I know the two pack is not mentioned to have names one way or another, I say it's most likely to have the Coneheads because of the presence of Thrust on his own.

I don't see this line having the 3 main Seekers and the Coneheads bar some appearing in selects.

Many assumed as much, as did I, regarding the listings. But I think it could go either way. And the siege line had the 3 main seekers and the rainmakers all appearing in the siege line with two more sekers in different lines. Honestly, to me it would be more surprising for Thundercracker and Skywarp not to come out. Also, I really think Hasbro messed up on Skywarp's Siege deco and added ot the fact that its the seeker fans are looking for the most still, it feels like a no brainer to release and Earthrise version.

I think most of us feel the same way.

I must be the opposite, I absolutely do not want to see Skywarp and Thundercracker, they have had more than enough chances, let the coneheads and maybe another few obscure conehead styled characters have their time.

Stop wasting spots in the line on the 84 seekers. There are now 35 more years to work with

I believe we’re about to see Skywarp and Thundercracker in the Amazon “Earthrise mode 2 pack” this summer.
