I am loving that new Ironhide. Everyone looks fantastic but there are some needs and wants(though "need" technically leans towards "want"). Prime, Sideswipe, and Ironhide are needs because I don't have any version of them yet for CHUG. Wants are Ultra Magnus, but I have the CW Leader, Hound, but I have the Universe Deluxe. Everyone is a want though. I love everything here and this line shows that Hasbro DOES listen to the fans, and loves them too.

BTW, weapons-oriented gimmicks are definitely fine with me. I prefer it actually.

I need that Magnus in my life.

White Cab, that is not a repaint of Optimus + Armor / Trailer.

At least Ironhide is suitably Cybertronian.

I'm going to say that is a no. Look at the arms. The armor slides over UM's arms. Prime arms have truck kibble that would be in the way.

I think it says Trump 2020

jk it says Police

I highly doubt that since voyager optimus is a very different mold from the smallr inner white prime.

Seperate like Firedrive

Bad News....I'm not seeing a 5mm on the front bumper, pretty sure Chromia is not a combiner component .

Removing the gimmick element Prime Wars moved into paying attention to the characters, in terms of pose ability, articulation and more in the engineering, as the weaponizing element of Micro and Battle Masters allow for playability.

Trust me, as probably the biggest fan of combiners here, I get the sentiment. But I don't know if it was done with malice, it seems often there are so many "cooks in the kitchen", things easily get overlooked.

Developer: OK we want to recreate the pair Ironhide & Chromia.
Developer 2: -OK we have a great fembot mold,but we aren't doing combiners for this line so we just have to remove that.

I don't know...I know it goes against Hasbro's MO for the past several lines, especially since there was bleeding over form T30 into CW, and every line after that. One would think it would require more effort to remove the Combiner functionality, but who knows...Even if the 5MM holes are gone, if that Combiner Port is still there (which it probably isn't), I'm definitely going to try to find a way to alter Chromia to make her a limb .



Now I have a question of my own....Does anyone think this line will have a Titan, if so what should it be....

I think this titan should be omega supreme, complete the devey/omega rivalry and then in the second part of wfc, give us scorpy.

As for chromia...couldn't you just get a spare moonracer or nova star and do a head swap and a nice new paint job?

That could be a way to go...I'm not really a talented painter however so I'd have to commission it. Also 100% Agreed on who the Titan should be, for obvious reasons (also it fits especially with the Cybertron setting)...as to whether we'll get one or not...that remains to be seen.

Loving this line.

I'm especially fond of the RiD-esque Ultra Magnus (probably "THE" Ultra Magnus, speaking of IDW comics continuity) and Cog, which might transform into some weaponry for Fortress Maximus (and if that is the case, I want a Sixguns for Metroplex too).

I also like the new Micromasters.

Just to give the names of the micromasters and show their combined forms
