As long as they don't drop it all the way back to the shin armor point I think that Superion looks pretty good for their set of concessions.

There is a new Powerglide coming out. There was also an awesome looking one in the DOTM line. But he doesn't turn into a gun for Superion.

I'm impressed with that Hasbro Superion. The individual bots, less so. 3p's have spoiled me on rotating wrists, ankle joints, and limbs that actually fold away in vehicle mode.

About Columpio, my comment earlier about the weapons pegging into storage was not that they didn't fit, more like it makes his back a big mess of kibble that limits his articulation. He does feel a little light, MP Sideswipe, fully loaded with all his gear, weighs more than Columpio with all of his. Doesn't feel flimsy, just lighter.

The same people (I think) also have pictures of that voyager Prime remolded from Motormaster and... actually it looks rather decent now, just a nice voyager sized, combining Prime. I'm still waiting for Motormaster though, I think he looks sick.

Nope, but Alpha Bravo has a mysteriously Vortex-y face and he also can work as Blades. There might be more molds coming since the Protectobots are apparently semi-confirmed (I think the emergency response sets might have been released to keep the name copyrights, mainly)

I'd expect to see a bot replace Optimus and Silver Bolt but still use the same limb bots to save money.

People have done lists, but it is hard to determine how deep they'll go on the line without having the toys in hand to figure out how much remolding it would take to turn X into Y, and knowing how much remolding they're willing to do. Defensor and Bruticus seem a given, but the others, who knows. What I'm looking forward to are the TFCC/botcon remolds in a year or two. 3P prices for not-3P-grade combiners! I can not loving wait.

TheDK posted:Mine came in today and he is just great. For some reason I really like the way his doors fold over his heels. The yellow mismatch in some spots would be my only complaint. It seems to be so hard to match the painted plastic to the colored plastic. Its less noticeable in 'bot mode and that's what is most important to me. Also, Brainstorm showed up today from Hasbrotoyshop. Pretty sweet headmaster. I have the Fansproject Smartrobin, and they're both great in their own ways.

with some creative remolding, it shouldn't be too hard to get Monstructor, Abominus, Piranhacon and Predaking out of similar molds. Rippersnapper is basically a shark Seacon anyway, and quite a few of the monstructors just look like Blight/blot. Also went to TRU the other day, and saw a mother trying to buy some TF for her 10 year old son, which were stuff like Constructbots and some of the ratter AoE stuff, managed to get her to pick up Gen Skywarp, Jhiaxus, the mini-con team, and Swerve. You're welcome kid.

The current one's packaging even says "first release". They said they'd comment on their ideas for G2 / Takara versions some time after releasing this one. That said I believe you can still get a Platinum Bruticus really easy, and you get a pimped up FoC Grimlock too, which... has got its flaws but I still like. If nobody here gets it first I'll comment a bit on this set once it gets home.

The Plat Bruticus set is sold out and going for a premium last I checked. I still have a boxed G2 set and was never really that impressed but god drat does that new set change things.
