I was only quoting you because you brought the rumours and I wanted to write about them, but I was not directing my message at you, sorry you felt that way. I was just writing to anyone in general who is still asking about Predaking. And yes, their predictions have been shown to be totally correct. What I am wondering now is if the technobots they are referring to will be released individually or not. I can totally see a boxset happening and wrote so in the right thread. But not sure about them releasing them like the others, especially when Scattershot was already released individually.

I don't care which way they do it, I just want them! And considering the rumor is new hands and feet, a box set may make better sense with victorion and her feet and hands stuff

It would be a real d!ck move on their part, but optimus got two releases ( ) for 'just in case', so maybe scatttershot could too

Well, I wasn't really sure.

Anyway, given that they are supposed to have new hands/feet, it would make sense that they would be released in a box set. Plus (according to D-maximus and Jelze), since there are no more main CW waves after Sky Reign, then a box set would be reasonable.

At this point i am rolling with the blows and hoping for something to come out of this eventually. (GIVE ME THE DAMN TECHNOBOTS)

I honestly cannot fathom why they wouldn't, unless they wanted to skimp on retooling them and release the '84 teams instead, to drive up profit margins even more

Ha, I am not that type of guy At least I dont aim to be

And yeah, that whole reasoning makes a bunch of sense. Good news for all those who wanted Conputron. Soas not to derail it too much, would you care to provide a link to the previous rumours regarding computron?

Also, seeing as I'm on a roll here, while I was getting the link, I checked the last page and found the picture below. Doesn't it look kinda like the TR Blaster mold? From a game called Transformers Earth Wars (I have no idea what it is) or something

I would say that, since we already have a cassette on the way, a soundwave remold of blaster is as inevitable as astrotrain from sentinel prime;

Just need to apply some patience, remember, we already have 75%+ of next years stuff revealed - plus the botcon stuff, they need to save some surprises for the NY Toy Fair in - whenever - and botcon after that...

Given accuracy so far, i really am hoping for the technobot limbs. Just still undecided on getting Scattershot though

Nothing a little customization and a potential Perfect Effect set won't fix.

I just wish that when I bought a toy, I wouldnt need to pay even more money to enjoy it.

Well, that's (for the most part) just Hasbro in a nutshell.

I don't think we should be judging this Computron thing so seriously just yet because we:

A) don't know if it's true ( it probably is but still) and

B) we don't know when and in what manner he will be released to us.

Yeah, hasbro said betatron is a 'prototype' of computron, dunno what that means, but if they are releasing two variants of scattershot, I'd say that means that hasbro is about 1000% less imaginative than the tf community, as, I imagine, we could probably think up hundreds of more suitable redecos that they could've released in lieu of a prototype scattershot

Maybe they are releasing the torso and then waiting for mold fatigue to wear off then release the limbs. prototype being that the name can get time to be trademarked?

No way they would intentionally ruin the computron mode, because, any way you look at it, it doesn't look like computron - that would be levels of laziness hitherto unseen by hasbro

Videogame Soundwave looks a bit like the Blaster toy I guess but he also looks rather like the masterpiece and the Optimus model in that game is the masterpiece one.

I was actually rather interested in the possibility of a Bumblebee remould with a new chest - if you remove the seats there is likely space for a face chest plate in the Classic Bee Mould if they chose to revise it to make a new bee toy in the future. or even a new Legends class bee.

It may see a bit crazy but just look at how many remoulds and remakes we've had the last 2 years - loads - they even have been remaking the Rescue Bots in smaller sizes loosely based on the originals with some cartoon sprinkles on top.

What with modern toys being small and cheap making a bee remould makes sense as he's already pretty small if you leave off the wave runner.

Should they decide to not make a toy of that Game Bee though then there is an existing one that some one can make a fan-kit for the chest to give the same appearance just add that to the striped repainted Bee and job done.

Also notice how Mobile Game Blaster has his little pals - I wonder if that can be taken as an indication of them getting toys too ?

I'm all for Toys based on the games as some of the designs were actually better than what we had got previously on some of the other games.

There was an especially nice Megatron design before for example.

True. Still, I just want my Computron

Weibo user TOYSPIE has uploaded - with a large number of watermarks and an internal use only mark - an image from the upcoming Titans Return line, starting with a bang: Fortress Maximus! The toy will include deluxe Titan Master Cerebros, as we had seen already, an exclusive sword and G1 style deco and stickers, with release programmed for February 2016. Check out the mirrored, albeit small, image below.

Daggum

Well that's coming quick. First of the year huh? Just in time for Skylynx to sleep on.
Looks really cool.

Well at least we dont have to go crazy waiting till toyfair like last year. And now I am confused since he arms and legs still look like Metroplex's but his base mode is really different from this:



Am I the only one a bit dissapointed that the base doesnt look as fun as the G1 toy (which I dont own yet) ?

Well doesn't seem to be a Metroplex remold now does it....

EDIT:NVM It seems to be that their are some similar parts of metroplex so it probably will be a remold but we don't know until its released

I'm a little confused as well. Is Max using the Plex mold? I knew that is speculated but the base looks different. The picture is too small, I guess we'll just have to wait and see.

Arms are the same. Everything else is different, it seems.

I don't think his arms and legs look all that much like Plex's, and how can you discern whether or not he looks fun from that tiny pic? How can he not be fun? He's a giant city bot.
Can't wait to find out what kind of play features/gimmicks he has.
