Two images are what appear to be black and white test shots of Scattershot combined with 2 limbs using the molds currently available; one being Brawl with the Ramhorn appendage and the other being Air Raid. The third image seems to be from the box art. It features both the Unite Warriors Groove mold and either the Dead End or Streetwise mold for the arm and leg. So now, we have a pretty good idea of the components that will make up Hasbro's Computron, but the amount of retooling is still unknown. Sadl though, the image does reveal that there will be no change to the sculpt of the combiner head.

WELCOME!!!
Do you mean Liokaiser?
You nailed it! Looks like it to me. I would guess the re-tool is whatever Nosecone will be for Computron.Stuartmaximus wrote:so lemme get this straight! for Liokaiser they're using TWO brawls? one Combaticon.......& the other....a repaint/retool

Good point. I'll rephrase. Finally! More combining weapons!
I wish I could get Vicky's sword, minus the figures.
OH SNAP!!!

I imagine that Takara will release both these guys too, it's just going to take a while

Apart from Slingshot instead of Air Raid, looks like I wasn't far off

No, it's using Sky Lynx instead of Silverbolt!
Yes, even more confirmation of Computron with new hands and feet!
No, it's still using the same damn Superion head!

Bet you 50$ US that's Hasbro. I will send you my paypal e-mail when it's confirmed that this artwork is for the Hasbro version.

It isnt in a wave. This seems to be a boxset. Computron is confirmed as a boxset. There is no CW wave after Sky Reign.

Why shouldn't we get Sky Reign? Liokaiser then will be wave 7 or up. Hasbro confirmed that they do not stop the Combiner Wars waves when Titans Return begins.

No. Hasbro did not say that. They said Combiners don't end when Titans Return begins. That's VERY different. We ae looking at boxsets here, not waves of individually released figures at retail.

But why should they release Scattorshot solo and then within a boxset? I know they want to make money and milk thw cow until it stops giving some but that would be too cheap.

Using Alpha Bravo, Offroad, Rook, "Quicksling", et. al, and just slapping some monster-theme paint job on this is not gonna cut it for the Terrorcons. And repainting Sky Lynx as Hun-Gurr? Not gonna do it for me. They're gonna have to get off their butts and make some actual NEW molds for the Terrorcons. IF they want me to buy them, that is....
I want a new Predaking and Monstructor

Actually look again at the half box art image, the head is different. It actually looks like Computron!

The torso has been slightly retooled so technically you don't have it yet

Oh THAT's what makes them too cheap?! Not the fact that in the two combiners revealed today, making it 10 toys, there is only 1 mold that is new?!
And anyways, Hasbro already hinted they would be releasing scattershot twice. Once as betatron and another as computron. And we know computron is a boxset due to the computer listing.
So if you think its too cheap, then sorry, but I guess it is.

Yes, definitely, the computer listings havent lied so far. But he might have some deco change (still unconfirmed).
And guys, I realy dont see any difference in the head on computron. Pelase point to me what makes it different from the superion head because I dont see it at all.
Posted by Stuartmaximus on January 8th, 2016 @ 11:34am CST
now that's not to say that we can't at least imagine them! & it's fun to imagine
but of course we'd all like to see Piranhacon, Abominus, Predaking ect.
but i guess we're stuck with what we're getting.

Wich one is the new mold?
Deathsaurus? I wouldn't really count him as new as he's just a remold

That's very little comfort, really.

I don't see any changes at the head, too, but I see some new deco on his chest.

No, Deluxe Groove is the new mold. He was never released by Hasbro yet, in any previous way/form, so that mold is a totalyl new Hasbro release. And due to his exclusivity in japan, only a select few in the states have him.
I actually think only the head will be new for the skylynx redeco.
Also, to those wodnering about the nunchucks:

Also can't wait for Computron.

So Deathsaurus now has no more robot mode?!

Waaaaaaaaaaait a minute...
Back in the days of Energon they made Brawl into a Flakpanzer Gepard despite the fact he's supposed to be a Leopard...
...And now we have a Killbison who turns into a Leopard despite the fact HE'S supposed to be a Gepard...
Yeah, if I bother with a Liokaiser I'll just get TFC's version. It's more accurate, looks better, isn't made of redecos and is HUGE (which is appropriate for Liokaiser as he's always been huge).

Look at the gun attached to Strafe Raid.
Now look at the gun in Lionking's hand.
It looks to me like that is the same gun, and in the Liokaiser art they are combined to make a bigger gun.
Two things:
A. COOL!
B. Finally some combining weapons!
...maybe?
If I didn't know better, I'd say strafes guns look like gen brainstorms
Posted by Mindmaster on January 8th, 2016 @ 12:11pm CST
And here's what we have for Liokaiser:
Not seeing anything different besides the combiner head... looks like we're getting a wrongly-colored kaiju-mode Deathsaurus that might transform into the Thunder Arrow. Not quite what I had in mind, but I could always take a Silverbolt, paint him up in Leozack's colors, and do a head swap with this new combiner head, and use what's left as a Thunder Arrow replica.

Hey, I know little to nothing about Liokiaser. Other than he rocks a dope animal theme, is a non-scramble combiner, and a toy I would like to have. Is he a Decepticon (Destron)?
HEY HELLSCREAM! There's your awesome evil-esque repaint of Skylynx! Give the man a prize and a pre-order!
william-james88 wrote:Cobotron wrote: Is he a Decepticon (Destron)?
Yes. Hellscream should be happy about that.
Yeah
Unfortunately, I'm actually obscenely torn, on the one hand evil sky lynx, more jet limbs and Lio Kaiser; on the other 2 more uses of Brawl's malformed torso...
I'll be getting this, I just don't think I'll be enjoying it as much as I should be

Or, on second thought, just something similar.

Because that torso turns into a bird kaiju, just as Deathsaurus is. And its what the rumours have said so far.

From everything I've seen brawls torso isn't as bad as everyone's making it out to be. But at any rate it looks like they already messed around with the torso
Compared to this

Sky Lynx is a "Dinobird", of sorts, akin to a winged Apatosaurus with a bird-like head and a... tailfin... thing(?) on its tail.william-james88 wrote:megatronus wrote:Can someone clearly outline the Deathsaurus speculation for me? Why do people think he might be the LeoKaiser torso?

One is actually sky dive, which I know is a remold of air raid but still.
