Next Transformers Haslab to be Revealed January 30

Hasn't it been concluded with almost certainty that it's going to be Primus?

Hmmm, fire up the engines and fill up on Energon... could be a larger scale non transforming Ark playset.

Could be, though I doubt they'd do another Ark when the last one was less than three years ago.

I can only guess at Primus, since nothing else bigger than a Titan comes to mind, and it was stated that the next HasLab after Deathsaurus wouldn't be Japanese G1.

Actually, I take that back....I could see them doing a combiner for the next HasLab. Bigger, more complex, more detail and parts in both modes to make a more solid combiner.

They could also redo Metroplex into a mold that doesn't have to be reused to make it feasible, so no compromises need to be made.

as they fire up the engines

The first thing that comes to mind when I hear this is RID2001 Optimus Prime, but I don't know if that would be a big enough deal for Haslab

Maybe a non-transforming Astrotrain playset that can fit your G1 Deceptions?

Primus five-pack. Prepare, confront, repel

If we think Star Saber Fire Convoy and God Magnus combining into Deathsaurus sized God Fire Convoy AKA Omega Prime, it could work. Plus, that includes the "Omega" hint from previous notes and is technically not an Optimus.

Yeah, this actually makes sense. I'd be down. Though tbh, I'd rather see an official Blu-ray (or DVD, since it's SD anyway) of RiD 2001/Car Robots. That's my Haslab dream. The bootlegs are rough.

That was the first thing that came to mind, but there's that whole nagging "no Optimus Prime in HasLab" rule they mentioned a while back. It would be nice if that rule changed, but is there an Optimus that they couldn't just stick in Commander Class like Armada Prime?

If they did do away with the "no OP" rule then I think Energon Prime would be the most suited to a HasLab since he could use an upgrade for articulation, has a big box of a trailer that isn't really retail friendly anymore, and could probably use a bit of slimming down to make him more appealing. That's probably not enough to take him out of the running for Commander Class, but what if they went the extra mile and packed him with Titan Energon Omega Supreme for say $300-$350? Now that would be HasLab worthy and it would satisfy some, if not all, of the "clues" (if that's what they are) like Omega, Energon, epic proportions, engine (as in train engine) and fire (he has a firetruck drone). Only thing it doesn't satisfy is the image with Primus unless you consider it a clue to being something from the Unicron Trilogy.

The "No Optimus Prime" rule was apparently just a misunderstanding.

Yeah I'm willing to double down on this being Omega Prime.

I forgot about his firetruck drone, that could be a possibility too.

Yup that's Primus. What's this pic from?

Who do I have to bribe to get Primus done?
