Who thinks Hasbro will release the:

Starscream
Sunstorm
Sideswipe
Soundwave
Red Alert

Masterpieces?

I'm not sure about Sunstorm or Red Alert but am hoping we see the rest of them for sure,

Thoughts?

Sunstorm? Probably not.
Starscream v2? Maybe...?
Sideswipe and Soundwave? Definitely.
Red Alert? Depends on how Sideswipe does, I expect. They did Skywarp and TC is slated for release, so repaints are certainly an option.

I fully expect to get every MP you've listed aside from Sunstorm and Starscream V2. I think there's a strong chance that the TRU Thundercracker will be using the Seeker V2 mold, though.

Also, I'm a little worried about MP Sideswipe and Red Alert making it here. I know Takara secured the rights to using the Lamborghini license, but does that mean Hasbro also has to secure the rights?

Good point about the license, WolfDawg, I hadn't considered that, and I forgot about the TrU Thundercarcker, does anyone know if the only info on MP TCracker is from the shelf-space map-thing or was there some other confirmation?

Sunstorm's an amazon exclusive in japan. Kinda like the black convoys we never got. I doubt the release of Sunstorm... but maybe Thundercracker would use the V2 mold? :lol:
