As the year begins to come to an end, we'll no doubt get more news and images coming in of new and upcoming figures. Thanks to Instagram user Capcomkai, we've got images of the upcoming Wave 8 Deluxe figures of Chromia, Arcee and Elita-1 three-pack, 2007 Camaro Bumblebee, WWII Hot Rod, and Soundwave with Laserbeak in their packaging! While the bike sisters are sold together as a Deluxe Class figure, they're all roughly Legends Class sized, and include stands so their unique robot modes can stand on their own. This is also, notably, the first time Elita-1 will be represented in toy form with her own screen and vehicle accurate robot modes- all her previous toys were recolors of either Chromia or Arcee. 2007 Camaro Bumblebee is a brand new mold with a permanently affixed battle mask head sculpt. WWII Hot Rod is a retool of WWII Bumblebee (with corresponding shellformer backpack), and Soundwave is also a new mold, transforming into a screen accurate robot and Mercedes SLS AMG vehicle mode, with very nice silver paint.

This guy is a buy on sight. He'll make a great "mini me" to the Movie the Best figure

I'm also very excited to finally get a movie Laserbeak, which will go directly to big papa movie the best Soundwave. Can I just say that "movie the best" is never not funny

I'm pretty excited for this wave of deluxes!

Also, I was rereading the posts after the Devastator pictures, and despite the mistransformations and the fact that there is so much prototype still in there, there was no negativity about it, which was super refreshing!

They do not. They are essentially 3 legion class figures in a deluxe package

I feel very negative towards Devastator at the moment, but that's only because I'm now on my fourth defective Rampage.

I dunno, but if they're doing this rather than zapping me with lightning or whatever, they're kind of childish. ...So it could be at least half the Greek pantheon.

I'm looking forward to getting Hot Rod, but otherwise the rest are a pass. I was excited about Soundwave at first, but the new shots are turning me off. His arms seem...too big and ape-like. Maybe having him in-hand will change my mind.

He's a pretty armey boi in the film which is why I think they went with that.

But yeah SS Soundwave is a little disappointing to see

Still not thrilled about Bee's mask being permanently down, but the mold does look good. Also, I don't know why, but whenever I see Soundwave's head from DOTM, it reminds me of TR Thunderwing

Joevill was probably referring to the original concept, where all 3 would combine into a Demolishor-styled bot but with 3 sets of wheels.

It received some work in rough models and if the 3rd actual original cycle sister mold had been released in RotF those 3 deluxes would have combined too

That’d be something cool for a third party to pick up on!

I do wish they had gotten the chest on SS Soundwave to compress more, but I still think he looks pretty good. I’ll need to be adding some light blue paint to those speakers ASAP.

Edit: Something kinda unlikely that I’d really like to see is Overload coming with a tiny Simmons figure. I think that’d complete Devastator!

So I just watched ROTF again, and loved it like always, and it really got me thinking about what figures we need to complete the cast. Here is my list of figures that I think we need from ROTF.

-The Fallen, Leader class (face needs to pop off)
-Skids and Mudflap, legends class (two pack for deluxe price)
-Soundwave and ravage, deluxe class with a small ravage figure
-Demolisher, leader class (white repaint of scavenger)
-Skipjack, voyager class (yellow repaint of rampage)
-Sideways, deluxe class (could be remold of barricade?)
-Sideswipe, deluxe class (remold of the DOTM figure)
-Generic Decepticon bad guy, deluxe class
-Jolt, deluxe class
-Grindor, leader class (repaint and slight upscale [~2in+] of Blackout)

Lastly, I know that this will never happen, but I can and will dream
-6 pack with the other 6 Primes in leader class size (would be a massive ~$300 box set)

I personally think that most of these figures will be made in the future, but I know some are just dreams. That is what I can think of right now, but please let me know if I missed someone or what you think of my list.

They sold Jazz who is super small at a deluxe price so I highly doubt them to be so generous as to give us two toys of his size (or slightly smaller) for that same price of one.

Well Jazz was 15ft and the twins were ~8ft so it would make more sense for them to be about half the height of Bumblebee or Jazz. It would be a case like with the Arcee triplets deluxe size. Plus, I want to be able to have Bumblebee pick them up and smash them together like he did in ROTF.

The only thing missing on this list would be a slight remold of 2007 Bumblebee, and the appliancebots.

EDIT: And ice cream truck Skids & Mudflap!

I really think they will go the Arcee route with the Twins if they make them. They are tiny, and would do best as a pair. They would also be in scale seeing as they are pretty small.

I want them too, They need to get eaten by Devastator and headsmacked by Bee

That's it. There's been something about Soundwave that's been throwing me off and you finally put it into words.
