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.

Both have their pros and cons, but I think I like the Netflix version better. I'll pass the OG one to my son, or if he complains too much I'll give him the Netflix one. Either way, I'm keeping the Battlemasters. >:oP

Just upload them all to Imgur or something and then embed each of them here with the image tags.

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 ordered the entire Netflix line, but they're still saying it wont arive until April 6 for me. Even more strange is they're shipping Megatron separately from everything else. Looks like the five Deluxe, Hotlink, and Ultra Magnus will be showing up in one giant box. I thought they might break it up a bit, but I didn't expect it to be so lopsided.

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 have no idea why you wouldn't want Thundercracker and Skywarp. I absolutely hate when a seeker mold isn't used by the three 84 seekers. For example, the RiD 2015 mold, which skipped Thundercracker. At least every seeker mold should use those three otherwise it's a waste. It's like making a datsun mold but not using it for Prowl, Bluestreak and Smokescreen. I really hope Smokescreen is turned into Bluestreak and Prowl too.

:MAXIMAL:

:roll: I don't think it's a waste for every Seeker mold to not do them, but I do think it's a waste in this case.

:roll: This succession of lines has been mainly about G1 nostalgia for nearly 14 of those years. That is its raison d'etre.
I absolutely do want to see Skywarp and Thundercracker - they need Voyager Earth Mode toys too. And IMO, SIEGE and Earthrise are the first time in all of CHUG that working all three of the '84 Seekers in isn't a waste, since the SIEGE and Earthrise molds are the first bloody time in all CHUG they've been gotten right all 'round.
The way I see it, a waste would not be giving us all the Classic Six.

I still think it'll be a version with his Diaclone colors. I'm actually very curious, even if I won't get the figure. What I would love is a black repaint of Magnus, I don't think I've seen that before. Like Nucleon Quest Convoy. Maybe with a little gray thrown in to break up the black.

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.

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

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 ).

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.

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.

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.
