Rumor: Is Voyager Red Wing coming to Generations Selects?

The character born from a BotCon 2013 comic error may finally be getting his first figure in Generations Selects! And, appropriately, we're learning about this possibility thanks to an error on Hasbro's part. When Hasbro Pulse first listed the upcoming Combat Megatron figure they accidentally gave the package content for a figure that is decidedly not Megatron.

Includes: Voyager Class Decepticon Red Wing figure, 2 weapon accessories, and instructions.

The page has been since updated with the correct contents; "Generations Selects Combat Megatron figure".

So why is this a big deal and who even is Red Wing anyway? Well for starters he was supposed to be an orange Seeker as the original incarnation of Hotlink in a collaboration between BotCon and Japan's e-Hobby which was going to contribute a new Sunstorm figure, both using the Classics Seeker mold. That plan would fall through and the name Hotlink would be given to the purple Rainmaker figure that same year. However, a cameo for the unnamed orange bot was planned for the BotCon 2013 comic in homage to their original plan, but after printing the character turned out red! And thus, Red Wing was born, though he wouldn't receive a name until fans spotted him in the comic and wanted to know who he was.

And it didn't end there. He would surface multiple times over the years, including a Japanese Kre-O comic and a character in the Transformers Legends game. Despite a strong fan demand a figure has remained elusive all these years. Could Red Wing finally be getting his first figure, likely a repaint of Siege Voyager Starscream? Time will tell. For now, let us know what you think in the Energon Pub forums below!

More Bots. More News. More Awesome.

Absolutely yes. That is not just a typo you don't accidentally type such a very specific name instead of Megatron. It will be coming out question is when.

I thought that Megatron would come with a mini red wing not that Red Wing was a voyager figure.

Depending on how his colors look, he may be a good addition to my general display for a Tetrajet triad as I don't intend to pick up Siege Starscream, but probably will pick up Thundercracker and Skywarp as I don't have proper voyagers for them and like the Tetrajet look
