Yes and they posted a bunch the past 2-3 pages. Did you see them all?

There is one from lunatic prime with dragstrip,offroad, skydive and first-aid. Has anyone tried to combine cyclonus with the wave 4 autobots?

I *think* the general consensus is that Galvatronus being a Decepticon, should be paired up with Decepticons (even though truly he can be with anyone) but I digress... Stunticons & Combaticons are the only two options really (or a mix/match thereof). Thus the reason it is so refreshing to see TT bringing us 4 "new" decepticon characters to be limbs for Grand Galvatron.

Also...I'm thinking we will see UW-06 before the end of April, and UW-07 should be sometime in June.

On Galvatronus limbs:

If you take all the pics that were just posted, you probably get pretty much any combo you could imagine. With the mold reuse in the line (not a criticism), if you can just imagine different decos on all the bots you see, than there you have all the different combination options.

It's kind of fun and funny really.

The wave 6 autobots actually look better with him. I have the 3 minus Wheeljack on him with Mirage from wave 4 and it looks really good. and thanks to MTMTE where they are all shipmates, it makes sense

Just dropped by to say, that Sky Lynx's weapons are SO frickin' awesome

They work as dual rail-guns or gun-swords, and also as dual swords, and the combined mode sword is great

Hot Damn would you look at that. That right there is what I'd call a beautiful combiner he honestly looks so much better than I thought he would, and I was on board with this from the start.

Yes! He has the DE/SW mold! And even better, it's the SW version.

If there will even be one

Now that is awesome.

Oh boy, yet ANOTHER use of the Dead End/Streetwise mold. Just what we wanted. At least it isn't that bloody helicopter mold.

Strafe and Afterburner look interesting, but the rest are completely dull. Scattorshot at least looks less awful than the initial release, but Nosecone is just Brawl with a drill and Lightspeed is literally just Streetwise. Between that, the fact they've abandoned any attempt at parts integration, and my generally sh*tty experiences with CW...yeah, I'm going with Quantron, assuming I even bother with Computron.

A lot of fans have reached out to us (xMXUx, MemphisR56, Mindmaster) to inform us of the glorious new photo of Combiner Wars Computron that surfaced on Weibo. Here was MemphisR56's summary/reaction to it:

New hands and feet confirmed, new decco for scattorshot confirmed.

Heavy retool on groove into afterburner, lightspeed is the streetwise mold, heavy retool on airraid into strafe, and out little buddy scrounge is in the mix with targetmaster partner too.

Most excitingly: New feet, with rocker ankles, and brand new hands.

How excited ae you by this reveal? What are you going to do with your previously purchased Scattershot? How do you feel about that take on afterburner? Are you still bummed about the reuse of the Superion head? Let us know in the discussion!

Ahh crap, you could've corrected my spelling Weej

Wow, that looks incredible! Can't wait to see what the individual bot modes look like

Here's hoping Computron is UW-08!

It's amazing how good he looks with those feet and hands. He doesn't even need the PE upgrade set. He looks like a really good transformer.

So the one with the lightbar? Isnt that a little lame?

Thats straight up false, BOTH the combiner head and combiner torso is integrated in Scattershot, which was not the case with the G1 toy.

Who knows, maybe they took the light bar off. It seems they put quite a bit of effort into this set so I think it's in the realm of possibility.

Is it just my browser or is this picture cropped? I cannot see the English Bio, nor can I see the far right of the image. Still this looks amazing. Cant wait to see the whole thing. I'm glad they corrected the head color for Computron. Also...If this does make it as a UW, I wonder if this will be the first UW with a 6th member, or will the just cut Scrounge? I'm thinking they'll probably cut him as he was an obscure character in the US Marvel comic, and not known in Japan, or how odd would it be if they changed him back to Cosmos .

The SW version of the mold has always held together better than my DE, who's legs separate and the combiner peg falls out if you so much as look at it funny. While that might not happen with every DE, I'd rather not take the chance.
And besides, you can't see the lightbar in combined mode, which is the way I'll be displaying him.

Anyway, as for my opinion on Comps himself, he can't come out soon enough. I'm excited to get the Groove mold, and he has two of my favorite limb molds and my favorite torso mold. Plus, new hands and feet so I don't have spend $40 dollars on the PE kit.

No, there were rumours from people who had seen him that he still had the lightbar, I was always thinking it might be a placeholder (as we saw before) but us seeing that they are indeed using this mold cements those rumours into fact. He has a lightbar, its no question of that, we just have to either accept it or not. I am not there yet.

If I remember correctly. no rumor actually predicted what mold Lightspeed used, just that he was from a Stunticon.
Anyway, if they didn't remove the lightbar from Smokescreen, then they probably won't for Lightspeed.

Those are knockoffs. I was referring to Computron's designated kit.
