I'm holding out hope that one of the Marvel comics characters we get is a The Enemy Within-accurate Sideswipe, with that off-model head! I mean, they can't ignore Marvel UK, can they? And it's been at least a month since the last re-use of that WFC Sideswipe mold...

Sold. The Optimus head is based on the Herb Trimpe take from US 11 and 12, love it. Hope you can stick it on the Earthrise or whatever SS series comes next. This was shown on today's stream, briefly. On the ER body. -Ralph

Could they do comic Soundwave & Blaster? Soundwave being purple & Blaster having the different head (why did he have the head in UK comic then the toy head in US?) Ravage could be made to look more like comic
Also SOundwave would have a mouth

Hmmmm, Did I miss something? The Comic version Shockwave has been (sold out) on pre-order on Pulse for a while now, but not Grimlock?

This was rumoured a LOOOOOONG time agao as a partial of Kingdom Leader Galvatron Here's the current rumoured figure list. No firm confirmation of ANY yet, but the rumours people haven't been ba in recent years

I'm interested in what Straxus (Hooray! Hasbro got the naming rights back!) is going to transform into, unless it's just a slight retool of the Generations Darkmount mould.

I reacquired Generations Darkmount/Straxus last year and I am very happy with that. Whether I need another one demands on whether this hews closer to the Marvel character.

Given it's a comic toy line, one would hope it would!

Whilst still I'm disappointed that we never got to see Anna Malkova's Straxus design, I am of course very happy about a Marvel Straxus coming this way. The only question is, which set of comics accurate colours will they go for, when the comics themselves couldn't really decide..? (Picture from TFWiki)

Release one now and the other later. We know how Big John Hasbro works.

I picked one up complete from eBay last year and I'm pretty happy with him. My only gripe is that he's a bit of a pain to pose and get standing up straight. Would be nice if they threw in a bonus 'Straxus head-in-a-tube' with the new one

And a Dreamscape Colours Straxus from Megatron's head needs to be done too. Although he might need to loose a few pounds for that first.
