Voyager Bonecrusher is great news. The original deluxe is good, but it really needed the upgrade.
As for the constructicons, I'll keep my ROTF ones and buy only the missing members if they don't combine.

One more thing: "Character B" could be a number of characters, including Dino and Hightower who have been listed on Amazon before. More than likely it's Dino, as TakaraTomy likes putting members of the same group in sequential order, with the RotF Constructicons starting at SS-32 Scrapmetal.

I really hope we get a combining Jetfire and Prime, i will guy a Prime then, dunno which version, but I will.

and I am hoping so hard we get a SS Devastator. I want a proper Combiner from RotF dammit!!!

It can't be Hightower, there's no way he could be a Deluxe and still be accurately scaled. Character B is a Deluxe-class figure based off the pricing. Your point about Takara's numbering patterns is also interesting though, I wonder if that means we're going to get a whole team of Constructicons that Takara just releases in one Wave.

The current main theories are that Character B is either Dino or Shatter, although I put a bunch of rambled late-night ideas of other Deluxe sized characters it could be the night of this leak (I still kinda want it to be Jolt).

This is where the oops is mine: Hightower was part of a group of amazon listings along with Cogman, Drift and Scrapmetal. Mind you, that even though Hightower is an arm component for Devastator (which I don't see being made unless he got the Bob Barker treatment), he connects to a second vehicle that forms the hand, so he may not be as big as imagined.

I'm still betting on Dino since he was leaked, and Shatter isn't (yet).

Leader Class Megatron??? 2007 MOVIE MEGATRON??? MAYBE???!!!!

Leader Class Megatron??? 2007 MOVIE MEGATRON??? MAYBE???!!!!

I'm guessing DotM to give him a giant in-scale vehicle mode that shrinks down into a robot the size of RotF Megatron from SS

That's what I want. Leader class because of the sheer mass and parts count. Plus the cab would be as big as Optimus in truck mode, PLUS there will be the trailer part. Complete with tarp/cloak made out of real fabrics (I hope). The trailer would be quite hollow inside, of course. Everything will then perfectly fold down and "magically" compress into a Megatron the same size as SS ROTF Voyager Megatron's robot mode. But that one will NOT be hollow. He will be quite hefty in hand.

I think Character B is either a character from the Bumblebee movie that they are hiding or maybe a real good fig that Hasbro wants to keep a secret until the very last second

There are several other characters we got listings for that are not in that list like Drift, Dino and Hightower. So it can be any one of those 3 as well.

I said I wasn't gonna buy any more Transformers for a lil while but I saw the gold coloured version of Studio Series VW Bumblebee for just £20 buy it now (+£4 P&P) on eBay just now & had to have it. I'd been waiting for that to be sold by itself (comes sealed and untouched in it's proper box) since it's usually about £60 with G1 cassettebots I don't even want (but clearly the guy who bought it was after those).

Ok now me got that to look forward to in a few days. Off I go now to get ready for first performance of the play I'm doing. Have a good day, folks.

An image has been found online with the usual purple scribbles blotting out most of the image. However, we are still left with enough to make out that this is the front of the istruction booklet for Studio Series 42 Longhaul. While it may be fake, we still wanted to share it with you until proven so. The toy is stated to be a voyager class toy of the character that appeared in Revenge of the Fallen. A new toy for him would be interesting to see since unlike most other tys released in the studio series so far, the original Long Haul toy was of that same size, accurate enough and stellar overall. It has even made our list of Top 5 Toys from the First Trilogy.

Let us know if you are excited for another Long Haul!

[Immortal Starscream]

If they found a way to make these guys combine this time, I would be totally down for SS Movie constructicons. otherwise, pass

Ditto.
Unless they are characters that were never done before.

[Evil Eye]

Call me crazy but I actually kinda want an Onslaught out of this mold. He did absolutely nothing, sure, but he was a cool design with a really neat altmode and he'd make a good crowdfiller.

Regardless though, this looks awesome and I want him. Long Haul was one of my favourite of the Bayverse designs.

[ZeroWolf]

Problem is, if these guys combine, devy isnt going to be in scale plus demolisher's robot mode is massive in the film compared to Optimus, how would they handle that?

I get confused. Demolishor had a robot mode? thought none of those combining ones did. And Long Haul was not part of Devastator in the film so he wouldnt combine.

[ZeroWolf]

Wait, wasn't demolisher the one at the begining of the film which Prime kills execution style? I do get confused with how that scene plays out, where they combine, problem with reusing the same alt modes.

There were multiple demolishers. He was the dude at the beginning in China that said the Fallen will rise again and he was at the end that created Devastator

[Randomhero]

I just checked the wiki. I guess the decepticon that combines into devastator was named Scavenger. Identical robot though. One is whiter than the other but still. If they combine I doubt they’d do two of the same with a different name.

Then again...bumblebee...

There's multiple of each of the constructicons. There's one Long Haul that was a part of Devastator, and there's one that was taken out during the air strike. There was even one that showed up for a second in DOTM.

[Jelze Bunnycat]

Just play along with the idea that there are two sets of Construction Vehicle Decepticons in the movie: one with individual robot modes, and one that combines into Devastator. Not interchangeable

So we got Rampage, ze little one called Scrapmetal who bares resemblance to Scrapper (*groans*), Hightower, and now Long Haul. All we're missing are Mixmaster and Demolishor.

Take note that the "42" is the Hasbro ID nr, and that the TakaraTomy "SS-" one will be different.

[Prime Target]

ALL ABOARD THE HYPE TRAIN!

C'mon Hasbro. Give us the Titan scale Movie Devy that the minority of us have wanted since ROTF Devy sucked ass (Giant not Legends). We'll need Mixmaster god forbid he might be even harder than the Original to transform, Scrapper, Scavenger and Rampage (Red)

[Carnivius_Prime]

ze little one

This always makes me smile. I dunno why. It just does.

[Acolyte]

No. 42?!

Don't we still need to fill in the gaps for at least a dozen or so that haven't been numbered up to that point?
