Why is Gigastorm there? Could they not get a reissue Trypticon from a few years back?

I am not going to complain to loudly that The Last Knight Barricade is a Prime Smokescreen repaint as it means he matches the Funpub Deluxe now (or nearly so). So I'm kinda OK with that bit of Hasbro cheapness.

I will say though I EXPECT NEW MOVIE LEGIONS for either the Bumblebee Movie of the next main movie's toyline. as they won't have the excuse of RID then.

Optimus' legion looks rather like one of the exclusives too.
Bee will have some small excuse if he's a paler yellow - otherwise i'll just look at the complete lack of vehicle mode paint and despair.

I really wish they'd sell Hunggrr as Twinferno or something so I can at least get a bit closer to making a frankenstein combiner out of all the stray Predacon repaints - just need some torsos.

I think they need to bring back Cyberverse commander class make the main dinobots in that size as new moulds and make the tiny cute versions from superbowl in one of the other lines.

I hope some of those items on display are indications of reissues as I never did find a Patrol Strongarm so a reissue of her would be useful.

The Negative colour Strongarm is interesting - might have worked better in black or white instead of blue though as the Transforming parts would have been better in white. I'm surprised to see he made with that Transformation though - I wonder if they can get a Ratchet out of that too.

Looking forward to 3-step and one-step Soundwave. I might even open 3-step Soundwave and I usually don't bother opening 3-steps.

Trypticon next to Gigastorm really does show how similar they are and really would hammer down how naff it would be if they didn't offer that minor remould/repaint as one of the exclusives .

P.s. Nice to see RID Bludgeon is there too.

I wonder if they have considered making a purple RID Blurr at all ?

Its deluxe hot rod with rodimus head.

Which brings me to an interesting question: Rodimus and Thunderwing from the box sets are shown off... but where's the rest?

Must have Trypticon....

Yes, a bunch:

FullTilt is a headmaster? Could he be Trypticon's mobile personality like that of Fortress/Cerebros?

Who knows? What we do know is that the Titan Master is called Necro, and is designed after a rather obscure partner of Trypticon: Wipe-Out.

Necro? So Ominous.Pun intended
