Have you received your WST Bombardier yet? Well, if you haven't yet, you will be pleasantly surprised to see that a new mystery WST figure is shown on the side of the box. ACToys has released the following images. Can you guess who it will be?

Not a clue, except maybe the WST version of Masterpiece Megs? *shrugs*

Don't ask why, but it reminds me of an Animated figure :-? .

His colors remind me of Sky Lynx, but his body resembles Astro-Train :-?

It has a Megatron-y look, but could be Devastator too, I suppose.

I looks like Megatron or Optimus Prime (maybe having no smokestacks is to throw us of the scent). WST versions of Masterpiece Transformers, very cool if that is what they are doing. Maybe Megatron wont be so annoying if it is him.

It looks like an improved Megatron, which is great because the real WST Megatron is a bit lacking in quality, especially in bot mode.

My only other guess would be an anime accurate Ironhide/Ratchet.

The only picture that is about the mystery WST is the all black profile. The others above are Swoop pictures.

I got my set a couple of days before Botcon and noticed that mystery pic. I honestly thought it was referring to Sludge but in reality Swoop was the final Dinobot to be released in the WST line. I couldn't even begin to guess who that would be. There needs to be more Decepticons released in the WST series in my opinion.

Yeah, noticed that on my pack too.

It's got to be a cartoon style Megs. Look at the shape of the torso. Dont care what it is, if its as good as the Dinobots I will be happy - so long as it isnt delayed like these last two!!

Looks like the silhouettes that adorned the inside back cover of Transformers Universe #1 many, many moons ago. If that's the case, it's almost certainly one of the first wave Autobots. And IIRC, those images were from the pre-cartoon designs before Ironhide and Ratchet got heads... and feet. Assuming I've got the first part right and given the boxy chest and head, I'd guess Hound. (I mean he's getting two figures from Hasbro this year, why not one more.) Could be Trailbreaker, but the arms look wrong. (who is overdue for some attention)
If it's more of a cartoon model, then aside from Megs it looks a lot like Windcharger to me. (who could use some more figure love too)

Seibertron should do a poll on their website on this question IMHO like Tformers does.

It looks a bit like Emirate Xaaron as he had the same shape upper body as Megatron. :-?

Browning maybe?
Perceptor?

I think this is probably a blacked out cartoon silhouette, rather than a silhouette of the actual toy. With that in mind, I think it looks rather like the cartoon model of Mirage.

Mirage would make sense, since that's one Takara probably won't do.

Other than that

Ironhide/Ratchet
Hound.
Shockwave.
