And yes I would like to see some extra Decepticon limbs even if they're just repaints just to swell up the ranks and give Galvatronus something to work with. There's still a lot of guys that could use new toys.

Just because they did it once, it does not guarantee they will do it again. If this the rule, should we expect to see 3 or 4 new deluxe limbs from them to go with Scattorshot?

Possibly. The bottom line is that TakaraTomy went all out for G1-accuracy, and since Hasbro has been substituting members/molds:
Alpha Bravo vs. Slingshot
Offroad vs. Wildrider
Rook vs. Groove
Jet Blast Off vs. Shuttle Blast Off
True, Hasbro released the first two, but there were straight redecos, ideal for Hasbro to do.

good question!
but
if Hasbro(as they've done so often with this line) do reuse existing molds...............they'd probably use the Dead End/Streetwise/Prowl mold as Lightspeed! one of the arielbots(excluding Alpha Bravo mold) as Strafe! Nosecone's a difficult one? unless it's a heavy retool of Rook(with a drill attachment) & lastly lays the problem? Afterburner! coz.....if they use Groove's mold....it's obviously too small as a limb & it wouldn't fit into the chest section of Scattershot anyway!(coz it's a heavy retool of Silverbolt & not Hot Spot! so the connections are different.....as to where the Groove mold would normally sit) so with that in mind..........they would probably HAVE to go with a new limb for Afterburner.

All Takara have done is tease some sketches.
Until they actually confirm, a shuttle Blast-off is just speculation.
I disagree. It is one thing to dig and find a prototype image of a toy but in this case this is the head designer telling us he is working on Blast Off on twitter. I fail to understand how that is not a confirmation. When hasbro told us we would be getting combiners, that was a confirmation we were getting combiners. I dont see this being any different.
Think as you wish, we are getting a takara shuttle blast off. The only question left is if it will be exclusive or not.
Just because the head designer says he's working on something, it doesn't mean it will come to fruition. I could be pulled at any moment for any number of reasons, especially if its a decision from another dept. ie finance or management. Things get pulled all the time in business, regualrly without warning.Starsaber468 wrote:Yeah plus its not speculation its just we know its gonna happen since u know what they did with groove their obviously gonna do a new blast off

Dude are you serious ?
This is like the worst case of denial Ive ever seen. The head designer has it in the works. That’s confirmed. Takara is all about G1. That is their business. They delivered with a proper Groove. A proper Blast Off is coming. Its not a matter of if, it’s a matter of when.
And for the Technobots, expect similar massive retools on the same scale as Nightbird/Blackarachnia/Slipstream…
Nosecone – Brawl retool
Afterburner – Groove retool
Strafe – Fireflight retool
Lightspeed – Dead End retool
Now that’s just speculation of course, but the fact that Takara is finally doing their own thing beyond just shiny paint and the MP line is real…

You cant get more substantial. He used Takara's official PR twitter feed to report that Takara is working on a blastoff. What are you trying to accomplish with your hard headedness? You want people to get afriad that it might not get released? We know they are releasing Bruticus, and they will release him as a giftset, so why in the world would that one mold that is part of the giftset get cancelled? I dont understand your logic here.
