Transformers Cyberverse is Coming Back with 2 Films

• Is there a new "big bad" antagonist (as with TFP's "Predacons Rising" concluding movie), or is the conflict more abstract (factionalism, restoring Cybertron, integrating the forgotten corners of the planet, etc.)?
• Is "our" Megatron dead or merely incapacitated?
• Will the "other" Megatron be identified in dialogue as Megatron-X?
• Just how long can Astrotrain contain him?
• Will Astrotrain get a third mode?
• Will black-Megatron transform into something that promotes the triple-changer toy? (His CG model is, like grey-Megatron, mostly tank-featured.)
• What happens to his army of not-Tarn?
• Given the Decepticon leadership vacuum, does a new leader arise? Especially since grey-Megatron was not exactly candid re: the threat of black-Megatron? Or do they decide there's no reason to continue the factions?
• Given Optimus's evident discomfort with being a civilian leader, is a peacetime Autobot government installed?
• Do we see more of Meteorfire, Cosmos and Hammerbyte? (Gotta amortize those CG models.)
• What about the Cthulhoid titan lurking the depths of the Argon sea?
• Is the head of Iaconus retrieved from unspace?

Ok, so here's a rough run-down of the info I have.

Megatron-X returns, and plans to take over the entire multiverse, recruiting bots from a bunch of dimensions.

Sludge, Swoop, Snarl and Slug stowaway somehow and join up with the Autobots. They discover a way to create Volcanicus (the Ultimate Warrior) the only autobot powerful enough to defeat Megatron-X.

Not sure how the show designs will translate to toys but they look super cool.
Grimlock - Normal
Sludge - tail turns into large sword/lance blade
Slug - has his axe and a double barreled cannon on his back in dino-mode.
Snarl - tail turns into an awesome club.
Swoop - long tail turns into a sweet whip.
Volcanicus - cool bot mode - swoops wings enlarged to predaking size, has a large sword. Has an awesome combined alt-mode which is a dragon. (Might be made as a combined ultimate class figure)

New roll and combine gimmick
Bumblebee + Swoop
Megatron + Slug
Wheeljack + Grimlock

I also get the feeling this is kind of a filler line, with a new series potentially launching in 2022 with new designs/continuity. (Lots of carry forward/pack refreshes)

That was just Sludge and Snarl (and the newcomer, Slash). I'm talking about all four of the classic team members, together.

Only 4 of them are classic? Which of the five doesn't count as a classic member for you?
