Mystery of the fourth Bot Shots launcher.

So I was on the bot shots game and noticed this pic of the launchers. As you can see theres a seeker launcher in the background behind Optimus. Anyone got any info on this or any speculation who the seeker might be?

Looks like it's a plane based Bot Shots figure. My guess is that its Jetfire due to the fact that he's always been known for being armed to the teeth (well, at least in G1 he had all that armor).

As for the coloring, I can only speculate. I'm tempted to say it'll be a dark Skyfire deco which would bring the Launcher total to 2 Autobots and 2 Decepticons. However, I wouldn't be surprised if it was just Jetfire recolored a shade or two darker/lighter than his mass release (like what happened with Optimus and his Launcher figure).

Honestly, though, I was expecting to see Shockwave get his own launcher.

If it's Jetfire it's not using the Jetfire mold. The shape of it doesn't match up at all. Jetfire is more pointed, this is rounded.
The canopy doesn't match up to any of the jets really. It looks pretty round, but has no separation lines. Maybe it's just hard to make out exactly, since it's blurry.

My guess, and I'll seem biased, is it's starscream. We have 2 autobot launchers, and starscream is pretty much the #2 decepticon, and he's only been released once. Jetfire has 2 planned releases already. Megatron, Optimus, BB, they have multiple releases. So, it would make sense to give Starscream another release.

Here's a thought- perhaps it's some kind of power-up Bumblebee. Come on, you know you want a Bumblebee Bot Shot launcher. It's only natural...

All kidding aside it's probably a Decepticon of some sort- Starscream is my guess

A Starscream laucher? Why not? I just wonder what the launcher would be. Prime's and Meg's are naturally their trailers, but what could launch Starscream? A cute aircraft-carrier?

I also want to ask: What bot and his launcher is behind Megatron?
Come see my latest creation, Death Hand, the actual transforming Transformers!

Yea, actually I thought we heard ratchet was going to be the 4th launcher.

I'd really like to see another starscream though, preferably a super starscream, which could be like a ghost starsceam

The wiki page shows Ratchet, but the image does show a silhouette of a plane.
