TFA Powerglide design

All we know is that Hasbro (and cartoon network) hasn't said anything officialy regarding a season 4 and won't until Botcon in a few weeks.

As far as we know it is entirly possible that the lack of information is just better security on their point, or due to the likelyhood that a season 4 would have a longer break than season 3 did due to the release of ROTF.

Maybe Hasbro has hired Michael Bay to handle their press releases about the future of TF:A...

"Season Three is the last season."
"Yeah, there are some character models showing up - those were design ideas before we scrapped Season Four."
"We have some unused toy designs, but we don't know if they'll be released, since Season Four is a no-go."
"Ok, so we've changed our stance and just won't talk about Season Four now."
"Yes, new character models are showing up, but that doesn't mean we're gonna do season four..."

On the topic of this image, it does have several Powerglide-ish features, but it also looks like it's got heavy usage of tank treads on it... are we sure this is the plane-bot? Or, perhaps it's Powerglide's pre-aerial mode, before the Autobots realize that what they've learned through Project: Safeguard can be applied safely to other robots.

Because that's only a rumor right now.

And if you scan the crowd at the end of the "Decepticon Air" episode (during the parade on Cybertron) you'll notice what appears to be a TFA Cosmos standing in the back. So there's another Autobot flyer who shouldn't exist but does.
My oldest son actually spotted Cosmos before I did which shocked the hell out of me. I had to check the episode twice on the computer just to make sure.

It would be awsome to see Powerglide make an appearance. What with all of the Starscream clones the Autobots could use some back-up and I think the 2 young twins could use some lessons in "old school" aerial tactics.

well doesn't Omega pull the whole autobot don't fly thing out of wack anyways?

I think they have actually gone more acurately "Autobots don't have atmospheric flight" hense Omega and Cosmos, and then powerglide as well if his altmode is more spaceship than jet. (plausible, if not very likely)

The most important question is: Does he have a heart ???

nice. looks to me he's got tank threads on his legs. that's cool. he might be a triple changer.

Well at this rate i doubt he'll be more than a background character. Unless hasbro decides to do Animated and ROTF at the same time. It would work since we just had Animated and Universe.

Oh wow, I didn't realize that blitzwing was an autobot before being corrupted or converted into the insanity that he is today.

Nice find, I like these design images.

Here's Powerglide:

Bloody. Now that Powerglide is red, I can barely tell the difference between him, Ironhide and Warpath.
