Skim reading that thread indicates this might be an Armada style Blurr from Pointblank....

If that's true, that makes SG Blurr exceptionally irritating.

Still waiting on Gears, Windcharger and Brawn, too. Oh gosh absolutely. I'd sell my kids for a Gears and Windcharger (I have a 3P Brawn stand-in, so although I really want a new Brawn, I wouldn't sell my kids for one. If you know what I mean.) |

I had wondered if we might see a 4th Netflix wave now all 3 shows are out but it would seem to be done and dusted.

Override/Blurr seems pretty obvious to me. what do you reckon? Vehicles have very similar shapes, and Hasbro doesn't care about the UT characters being as accurate as the G1 characters (as per Siege Hound having zero commonalities with any version of Hotshot to date, including Cyb Defence). This is assuming Override is Cybertron, and not the triggerbot, which would then put that as possibly being the base for G2 Road Rocket to be repainted from (again, assuming that's the correct Road Rocket) |

This is assuming Override is Cybertron The line is apparently Velocetron themed so it would make sense to have the Velocetron leader in it. |

Which will be interesting, given that in this household she's known better as Nitro Convoy. And will thus be a necessary purchase.
As for Road Rocket, I'm going to guess that it'll be a reuse of Prime Arcee, which we know we'll be getting in this line. It's not the most exciting suggestion, but to me that makes it more likely.

Obviously we can't see the new Pointblank yet but there's a similarity visible between the original and Armada Blurr EDIT: In fact you could do both &really* well with a reversible upper body and swappable arms ala Universe2 Sideswipe & Sunstreaker Override: could they do her from SS86 Voyager Hot Rod? |

Watch Blurr be a silver repaint of SS86 Blurr

Note Clampdown in Selects and Velocitron. One a Cybertron version, the other an Earthmode? Or some early confused info and he's actually just a Selects which would bring Velocitron's deluxes down to 4 (Wal*Mart did have 4's in Netflix bu 4 is much more common) All in for the Diaclone repaints - love love love. Skids is already in there quick with Burnout, I assume Crosscut and Reboost will get a home SOMEWHRE (Selects 2023? Velocitron wave 2?) Oh hey, Road Hauler, Shockers! Green Grapple! |

Let's pull on a little thread here This is obviously one Wave for Velocitron ..... is there a second? If there is can we populate it with land vehicles? I saw Rad from Jazz suggested in the Golden Disc thread Stepper? Crosscut Energon Quickstrike from Springer for the Voyager? Delta Magnus/Powered Convoy for leader? Or might they go a different aproach and make a different wave a different planet? Annoyingly TFWiki does not seem to list the Cybertron toys by planet for me to check likely suspects..... |

Why would wave 2 be land vehicles?

Because OG Velocitron was populated by racecars
Edit: Although, last I looked, a flying saucer wasn't a racecar.

The list is worth a quick rundown with some commentary on what was and wasn't known about Walmart: Velocitron deluxe Clamp Down Velocitron deluxe Burn Out Velocitron deluxe Blurr Velocitron deluxe Cosmos Velocitron deluxe Road Rocket Velocitron Voyager Road Hauler Velocitron Voyager Override Velocitron Leader Black Convoy with Tanker These we all knew about already. Since Velocitron looks like the successor to Netflix at Walmart I'm guessing it will end up with Smyths here which is good news as I want all of it especially the leader. Phil! It's Christmas Day! Mind you, the commentary is welcome. I think I might be in on the Velocitron toys. Don't think I need Wreckers repaints of toys I already have unless that gives us a clean Springer. |
