The "For Safety Reasons" thing gets ridiculous at points. G1 Prime's smokestacks being shortened, all the missile launchers Hasbro's neutered, the smegging RUBBER PARTS on American figures... Well, to cut a long story short, this would be a fitting death for whoever came up with this crap: Choking to death on one of the shortened smokestacks that wouldn't have been able to fit in their mouth if it was full-height. And then there's the fact that Hasbro rips us off on the paintjob so often.

We'll never see either a) Voyager Soundwave or b) Human Alliance Soundwave. It'll never, ever, happen...because it might make too much sense. He's one of two incredible ROTF deluxes (Rampage is the other) that would benefit from an upgrade in scale.

I'm pulling for a Dispensor. His vending machine mode doesn't have to say Mountain Dew on it, that wouldn't bother me. I just want the toy already. The toaster and microscope just make me want it more. His Robot Hero figure just isn't cutting it.

Video Game Shockwave

 

When almost all the other game exclusive characters were released I kept thinking "Oh boy, Shockwave's next" Never happened. For shame.

those other seekers?

 

i do wish we would see a leader class blackout, a leader class the fallen, and a voyager bonecrusher. but i really don't think we need a deluxe, voyager, and leader class brawl.

 

i've gotten over the whole no individual robot modes for devastator. but what i would like to see is a devastator that is taller, with many more painted details, and the screen accurate number of components.

 

i would like to see human alliance figures of jazz, jolt, ironhide w/ lennox, sideways w/ alice, and maybe rampage with sams parents.

The Sideways and Rampage ideas were pretty cool. I'd love to see that.

 

While I'm being completely self-indulgent here, I'd also love to see a leader-class Demolishor, with proper arm articulation (truly loving the voyager toy), and a leader-class version of Voyager ROTF Megs with all the articulation of the smaller toy.

I think the reason we'll never see a Dispensor figure is the fact that Hasbro more than likely does not want to pay Mountain Dew for it. That's just my take on it, though it would be cool to have that and the xbox one.

 

And while we're at it, a better version of Arcee. But I kinda doubt that'll happen

I pretty sure Hasbro specifically said there will be new molds in the movie line in leu of a Premium line, as well as "finding a way to get the rest of the animated figures to retail". And it hasn't been confirmed yet if that Leader Prime is official, has it? I'm thinking it's a fan made upgrade. As much as i love Leader Prime, I don't wanna buy it again.

 

I have the feeling this just means "more old molds with new heads."

If they did it, it would most likely be just a generic vending machine.
