View Full Version : Some new Generations or Movie toy names?

Recently registered as trademarks are some Transformers character names (http://www.tfw2005.com/transformers-news/generations-classics-44/new-hasbro-trademarks-reveal-possible-upcoming-generations-toys-179845/), of which we know one should be a Generations toy... but with the homage redeco potential of Movie toys in previous years, some of them could be for future movie toys.

Nightbeat
Overload (not Overlord)
Sunstreaker
Rook
Strongarm

They are all previously used names, and some may just be renewals... so could just end up being thrown onto an upcoming redeco, rather than a planned homage toy.

Sunstreaker grabs my interest. FOC mould with a new head? It wouldn't look terrible.

I saw a Strongarm mockup recently that was Rhinox with a new head (http://www.tfw2005.com/boards/transformers-toy-discussion/976709-generations-2014-repaint-retool-wishlist-6.html#post10857909). Was it here or on twitter? Anyway perhaps that's what Rhinox's repaint may be?

Overload seems like a name you could give to a Scoop repaint (although the homage isn't obvious).

If Hasbro release MP Sideswipe, I could see them selling Tigertrack as an MP Sunstreaker.

I see hasbro gearing up for a new Transofrmers movie range.
All seem to be flip cars but they are releasing another Grimlock in Dinomode.

All part of Age of extinction release.

Rook is interesting. I wonder if it's a minicon reference or… a G2 reference :)

I know, I know, I can dream :o

I'm actually wondering if most or all of these might be for movie toys of characters not actually appearing on screen in TF4. There were plenty of those for the first 3 films.
