Commander Wave is similar to scouts? Unlikely as it seems, "scout" and "commander" together scream PowerCore Combiner, no? Probably a coincidence.
And...BUILDING BLOCKS!?! Sweet Primus, has Hasbro already forgotten the the tragedy of Built to Rule? Is this gonna' be another wretched curse returning to haunt the franchise at the beginning of every decade?
The rest sounds interesting enough. Only other oddity is that they announce the first TF Prime toys, which are apparently to be buried in Generations instead of having their own line. And a fem-con on the show? Could THIS be our first Slipstream toy?! Or anything other than giving the Arcee mold a bad-girl repaint and calling her Flamewar?

Cyberverse was the only thing I was hopeful about, but this reduces that hope greatly.

Eh, outside of Shockwave, really the only thing about the DOTM toyline that interests me at this point is Cyberverse, if for no other reason than the Ark.
I sincerely hope that Hasbro has learned from the mistakes of BTR with this new block line. The figures at least look decent IMO (though why exactly they have movie-styled bodies and Classics-styled heads seems a bit odd [never mind the G1 TF minifigs that come with them] - Photoshopped, maybe?), and they sound like they're properly transformable this time. I guess we'll see.
Other than that...in as much as I don't really care about the 'kiddy' lines, I am somewhat tempted by Rescue Bots Optimus, 'Bee and Blades.
