Yeah, but Hasbro says a lot of things...I'm not suggesting they are being untruthful, I just wonder, why not show some of the designs of the losers, especially the ones that have no practical future application.

Think of it from a point of IP.

There are also NDA's to consider.

I have to wonder what the names would have been for the Primes and if they'd even still have "Prime" attached to them. After all, Optimus Primal's Prime form is just Optimal Optimus again instead of the more fitting Primal Prime.

Just seen on the hasbro instagram story they had a mini q&a and when asked about a titan class they replied with Something BIG is on the horizon.

Taking it literally from the poster the Ark is very much in the horizon of the picture so yeah poss confirmation

And yet I'll be forever disheartened if hasbro didn't do it...it was meant to be a joke but turned into too much of a good idea...c'est la vie.

Maybe they are hinting an Omega Supreme figure?

Reading all this makes me want to go back and play War for Cybertron. I'm sad it's not on steam anymore because it is seriously one of the best TF games.

If you already owned WFC (the game, since we have to specify now I guess) on Steam, you should still be able to access it. I can still play FoC.

As for these code-breaking shenanigans, if they are hinting at a purely G1 Omega, that will be another Titan I'll be skipping on. If it involves/takes cues from the Animated or Energon designs though... :-?

Since early this morning, Hasbro has been taking questions on their official Instagram page about the upcoming Transformers War for Cybertron: Siege toyline. And a few of those questions are now up with accompanying answers, on Hasbro's Instagram story! Only a few questions have been answered so far, and it's unknown how many more will yet be answered, but even in the ones currently released there are some answers worth sharing.

The first and biggest (get it?) answer Hasbro released is on the subject of a Titan class figure being released in the Siege toyline. While an entirely direct answer wasn't quite given, it seems that a Titan is effectively confirmed for the line!

Another question asked about the increased sculpted detail in the line (as most noticeably seen on Chromia). Hasbro's answer confirms that the greater detail is an intentional choice, and claims it helps to "enhance [the] Cybertronian mode" of characters.

In response to a question on the whereabouts of the Decepticons, Hasbro answered (unnecessarily indirectly) that Decepticons would be revealed in the future so stay tuned.

Hasbro also stated, replying to a question of if the toys would be available on Amazon, that the line "will be available at all major retailers and online in 2019!"

And there you have it! Those are all the (actual) questions answered so far - as of this time Hasbro is still taking questions, so you can submit your own questions (and check for more answers) on their Instagram story here! Check out screenshots of the Q&A below, and share your thoughts in the Energon Pub Forums. And as always, stay tuned to Seibertron.com!

That's pretty much my feelings too. Basically anything other than a straight G1 Omega Supreme, I will be quite on board for! But if it's purely G1 (especially if it partsforms into a regular rocket and a tank on train tracks), I won't be all too thrilled, personally.

I'm hoping they can somehow get him to go from a spaceship mode based on Animated or WFC to a base mode a la G1, to a nice robot mode.

Yeah Animated Ark-Omega would be the perfect fit.... but at the same time, if they're gonna go all in with micro masters... hi G1 base mode could be fun. In a way, I'm hoping the micro masters give the Titan Returns Leaders some love (like the Soundwave reissue coming up- which I think had the best base mode of the bunch).

Another thought that crossed my mind with the RiD inspired Ultra Magnus, what if they give u RiD colored Fort Max (I believe he was a different color from Brave and standard max?)

There are apparently 4 posters total that have hidden messages. I was initially only aware of SIEGE. Trying to find out from one of my buddies if the Bumblebee Movie poster given away last weekend also has a hidden message on it.

RiD Fort Max is Brave Max.

Oh.... I thought someone had a neon green door. And was black instead of dark blue. Was that just a one-off Korean import?

That's Brave Max/RiD Fort Max.
