Yes, but since Hasbro has nothing to do with the Encore Line the real question is does Takara have dinobot molds it can use?
You're forgetting that Hasbro and Takara share resources and thus molds. If Hasbro says the molds are lost, chances are Takara can do squat. And the Encore Devastator rumor keeps persisting? It's false people, that box shot was fake.
I agree with the next Masterpiece being a repaint, if there is gonna be any. Picking a famous character is getting harder and harder with each new release. If they're gonna make a new mold, I'm hoping it's Star Saber from Victory.
That's mostly becuase it's tough to pick other famous characters that can be simply produced from the existant molds. Megatron and Grimlock are kinda one-shots,you know, whereas with the Seeker mold the potential exsists for at least three,and with some retooling three more,and then Sunstorm if need be.
Personally,that's what I'm hoping for, Coneheads. If we can't get a new mold then let's rework something into an actual character, not Acid/Sunstorm becuase frankly, 22 seconds of G1 screentime does not make you worthy of a Masterpiece figure.
