I always wondered what the slot numbers would be for the returning members.

Quickslinger is 4 of 5 correctly in place of Alpha Bravo:

Brake-Neck is 2 of 5 incorrectly replacing Dead End:

That's super interesting, thanks for letting us know!

They didn't have any image of Dead End in leg mode for the diagram, so Hasbro did the next best thing lazy thing and had him take the spot of his mold mate.

So under that numbering system, Menasor's proper makeup would be Motormaster, Offroad, Brake-neck, Breakdown, and Dragstrip. I want to see this now. It's probably less spectacular than I'm imagining.

Well I just got this from UPS, decided to take pics in the park. He's nice, though I honestly like Alpha bravo as an individual better; i've joked but he is the hero; and to be the hero he needs to be separate from superion. I think when I get Firefly and Air-raid i'm going to come back to the fountain and take pics of the original limbs as a barber shop quartet.

I think AB plays the hero very well. He's the 6th team member who flies in with his Gatling guns blazing, laying down cover fire. And if one of the limbs goes down, AB is there to fill in for support, while as an arm he adds his rapid-fire power to save the day.

Badically, he's Tommy as a limb instead of a torso.

Is there any rumor/word on future releases for this line?
I would love to see both the Combaticons and Predacons.

We have one more team for this year, though not the one you think.

Legends
Rodimus (retool of Blackjack)
Skywarp (redeco of Starscream)

Deluxe
Prowl (Dead End or Streetwise)
Ironhide (Offroad)
Mirage (Dragstrip)
Sunstreaker (Breakdown)

Voyager
A supposed white redeco of Optimus Prime, who serves as the torso for Optimus Maximus

Here are some listings that were found recently, but take note they may be for next year and details are unknown:

Legends
Shockwave
Autobot Pipes
Chop Shop
Buzzsaw
Rewind
Wreck-Gar
Autobot Stripes

Deluxe
Vortex
Blast Off
Decepticon Brawl
Swindle

Wheeljack
Smokescreen
Trailbreaker

Voyager
Onslaught
Scattershot

Leader
Starscream

Thanks for all the info... Excited about the opportunity to get a decent Bruticus without taking a huge hit in the checking account.
I'll be curious to see Trailbreaker since I skipped the most recent version... But I'm happy enough with my Hasbro and Henkei versions of all of the deluxe Autobots that were listed.
Shouldn't be too tempted by those new ones!

So my Brake-Neck showed up today, and I really dig him even though I think his face is almost a little too human looking.
And as far as Motormaster and Dragstrip, I freakin' caved and have pre-ordered the Unite Warriors Menasor...
Which I'm sure I'll be very happy with. I just couldn't pass up those (imo) highly improved paint jobs!!

Thankfully I think I'll be able to settle for Hasbro's versions of the Combaticons.
And Constructicons for that matter.

But thanks again for the info JelZe GoldRabbit.
Cheers!

OOOOO excitement! Swindle, besides Starscream, is one of my favorite Cons! And I am VERY curious about that Scattershot!

Let the rumors begin!

Has there been any explaination for the reasoning behind this one? I mean... we already have an Optimus without any arms and legs designated for it... so It's not like they NEED 'maximus' for all these autobot limbs.

Is he part of a game or comic I haven't seen before? Something that's been fan demanded for some reason?

Seems redundant. at the end of the day, we'll STILL have a torso without limbs... unless we buy extras for some reason.

Reason? Mo' Money for Hasbro.

Well, Cyclonus is also a limbless torso so it's not like Prime is the only one. And no, there is so far not any place where this white prime which connects to limbs idea could come from or reference. What I think, is that they are maximising (OOOH!) their use of the molds. You make Prime a combiner because he sells well (and it's in the comics, thats a bonus), but you make a redeco be the recommended usage of those limbs (as the marketing shows). Also, I feel that this is a way to ensure that there is a combining prime at the beginning and end of the year for parents to buy (especially at Christmas) and they are made differently to not make the fans see it as a lower product output and to give them some more diversity. That's my take on things.

Hey William-James88, can you post that pic of "Ultra Prime" from the last combiner wars comic in this thread for me? I remember you posting it a few days ago but I cannot find it again. Plus it gives everyone a glance at what to expect in the future. Please?

Thank you good Sir. I can't wait to see what Sarah Stone does with this. He'll look amazing in her art style.

Damnit. That image is going to force me to buy that wave. Originally wasn't going to...

VIPER UP!




he's hanging on there with dumb luck and a whisper.

He looks like he's just gone splat onto Menosaur.

So, this morning I found out Powerglide accidentally went through the washer and dryer, no signs of damage, but it was kinda scary to say the least. (He must've fallen off my desk or got knocked into the dirty laundry somehow)

Does he smell nice?

'cause Whirl might find himself going for a spin soon ...

Haven't checked yet, he smells normal I guess...

We'll know more by BotCon or at the latest the SDCC. I didn't add the Fan Built Combiner Victorion with her 6 members, but she's planned to be revealed at SDCC, and will be released next year.

Yeah, Menasor looks a lot better once Wildrider came back into the fold...

Something looks very odd about that Wildrider. Am I crazy?

It's ROTF Wildrider.
