I think we're in agreement on the Shockwave thing. Probably. I really enjoyed that part of Revolutionaries!
No planned Thunderwing that we know of. But he was in the PotP poll, so you never know although I think given Deathsaurus' performance there ol space chicken is most likely to be the next bigger, less known Decepticon that we see in Generations.

To Scotty's point - not hinted, not really, outside of the poll.
It's just that... Nitro has the Titan Master port, but his head doesn't turn into a Titan Master. And his alt mode is a dead ringer for Thunderwing. And that his robot mode, with some moderate retooling, is ALSO a a dead ringer for IDW Thunderwing.
People are already making customs:

I don't think it's anywhere near the Stormbringer design, outside of "they're both flying alt modes".megatronus wrote:And that his robot mode, with some moderate retooling, is ALSO a a dead ringer for IDW Thunderwing.

I'd still disagree even with the shoulder turbine things.Flashwave wrote:ScottyP wrote:That can make a cool Thunderwing, I agree, but:I don't think it's anywhere near the Stormbringer design, outside of "they're both flying alt modes".megatronus wrote:And that his robot mode, with some moderate retooling, is ALSO a a dead ringer for IDW Thunderwing.
Its the shoulder turbines. They are not visible on the one Megatronus posted, but picure the circle thing on Nitro compared tobthe wing turbines the Stormbringer armor Thunderwing had
Maannnn.... Now I gotta reread that

Besides, if you're Hasbro, you 1) stopped caring about toys based on IDW designs for some reason and 2) could just do a quick job at making Thunderwing from Leader Black Shadow and call it a day.
Now if Nitro were somehow made into Thunderwing's inner robot, I'd be on board. But still mostly from a G1 look perspective.
Mostly just having fun with it, but also operating under the assumption that Hasbro wanted the franchise in the comics somehow since there is a Visionaries movie happening in some distant future. Also giving the creative braintrust at IDW benefit of the doubt that they will never be able to take credit for, if they even could - so yes, could have very well been a purely IDW idea, but that was less fun in the moment.Daniel Adkins wrote:Wait, why are we blaming Hasbro for the cop-out Visionaries tease ending of First Strike? We know that the Hasbro Universe was an IDW creative decision, not a Hasbro mandate. So the Visionaries stuff would logically be the kind of thing that would be an editorial mandate from IDW. I mean, don't get me wrong, it was a STUPID decision, but let's put the blame where it belongs.
