I wonder if Overlord will come with a couple Powermasters along with the Headmaster. wouldnt be too hard to switch out the Titanmaster Faceplates for Engine-Plates.

Perceptor
Bumblebee
Topspin
Overlord
Seaspray
Slugslinger

They also stated that it seemed like Perceptor and Topsin came with the titan amster drones rather than targetmasters, while Bumblebee and Seaspray came with Headmasters (aka Titan Masters).

He is indeed based on Haywire, but Firebolt and Recoil are not based on their G1 counterparts. Rather, they're seemingly based on Fracas and Peacemaker. Go check it!

That was probably done since Firedrive and Flintlock already resemble Firebolt and Recoil.

They'll do Black Shadow. Retool or not he's unique enough and he's one of Japan's babies.

Peacemaker? Man, I hope that doesn't hint at Pointblank not happening... or maybe this is proof of him happening, with his Titan Master resembling Peacemaker and hence Takara decided to give him Firebolt instead? Puts a hole in my 'pointblank is a retool of hot rod' theory...

You can never be sure with Takara. Liokaiser was a G1 original of theirs & it looks like they passed on doing a version of him.

I still think pointblank will happen but it does raise the question as to why Takara didn't just give Kup and Rodimus their proper targetmasters in the first place

Bolded

btw Can someone try and do a comparison shot of all the Targetmasters so far?

I apparently can't read. Perhaps they'll include Firebolt with pointblank like Kurona said but then that still leaves recoil.

Some future figures like Perceptor will probably get Targetmasters as well, so using up all the designs should be easier than you think. Checklist time:

Pinpointer: None
Peacemaker: LG46 Targetmaster Chear / Kup
Spoilsport: None

Firebolt: None
Haywire: LG51 Targetmaster Doublecross / Twinferno
Recoil: None

Aimless: LG52 Targetmaster Misfire
Blowpipe: LG49 Targetmaster Triggerhappy
Caliburst: LG?? Targetmaster Slugslinger

Fracas: LG45 Targetmaster Hot Rodimus
Nightstick: None
