My response is a simple and succinct 'meh'.

All evidence we've seen thus far seems to point to CW focusing squarely on the classic G1 combiners we know and love. Superion, Menasor, Devastator, Defensor, etc.

Independent, huh? That's no surprise. I wish winning the lottery was as easy as predicting this fan poll.
The figure will be called Slammoth. One or more members will be female, and the Combiner itself will be female. The Combiner will have very large breasts formed out of a voyager component. The voyager's alt mode will be a milk truck.
Sorry to ruin the big reveal at SDCC.

False. The torso will either be the Silverbolt mold, the Optimus/Motormaster mold, or the Hot spot mold. There are no new molds involved in this.

I hope people realize allot of these presets in personality don't matter. I mean windblade, based on the poll, was from Kaon. I doubt if our combiner is a lady she'll actually be from the sea of rust in comics fiction.

That's something of a sweeping generalization. I don't care much about those guys and I feel more connected to the RiD combiners like Rail Racer.

Yeah, I didn't it in specific regards to every fan, but in the casual figure of speech that "we know and love" is typically used.

I’m the exact opposite... not enough females/too many males.
Yeah, I'm probably twice as likely to buy a repaint/remold set if it is to support Hasbro making the gender balance more even. Guess their whizbang marketing team got me there.

Same, mostly because I find the female characters more interesting, but also like you said to support a minority

In all seriousness - the gender of these things won't matter one whit - we already have the molds.

It's not about the molds i'm worried about, as much as how the paint aps will be applied. If done tastefully, just the paint and the selected head sculpts alone may give enough of a 'female' look.

I'm personally hoping for all 6 to have new heads. If it can't be everyone though I think the combiner head and Combiner torso head NEED to be new for this to work, whereas the limbs (since they often won't have their heads even seen) and the chest plate/weapon can probably get away with just recolours

I try to stick to English names for the sake of consistency. If I said JRX I'd have to say Meister and Tarans and call Bulkhead "Ironhide".

No idea, but I never heard anything about it being included, so I assumed it wasn't. I did kinda miss that round of voting though.
