I'm also hoping that Treadshot is Generations Warpath coloured like Treadshot. That would look snazzy.

I was thinking Generations Warpath too, only coloured like G1 Treadshot. They both have gunbarrels in their chests.

I love Action Masters, so a G1 Treadshot Warpath would be great. It's supposed to be Shattered Glass Treadshot though, so...
Oh man, the same mold they used for Treadshot was also used to make Heavytread and he's coloured like Warpath! It's perfect!

Since this was being touted as a Gen1 themed set/year, I'm expecting to see characters like Treadshot be homaging their Gen1 versions, not reflecting any following versions that were a completely new character with the same name (because of Hasbro name recycling).
As for the Soundwave bandanna - I'm not sure why they are charging extra for it, but they had a good reason why it wasn't included with the toy (because it was cheaper to produce in America, than trying to get it done in China and then packaged in with the toys). If they went to so much trouble to create it for that toy, they should at least be giving them away with the box-sets... unless they only made a small number, and will sell out real fast.

Except that if it is Shattered Glass Treadshot as solicited, it can't be in G1 Treadshot's colours. It would probably be in an Autobot Action Master's colours - Rad or Rollout maybe (or Jackpot or Minframe or Skyfall or Kick-Off). And since there's no modern Treadshot mould - the closest thing would be something that turns into a gun... like the Nightstick mould maybe? That would make a lot of sense if Metalhawk is Cyclonus. I also think Treadshot could be Legends Megatron with a new head.
Or it could just be a random mould in random colours.

I didn't say anything about the colours. I know that the mirror universe versions are different colours... I was just commenting on the "versions" as in what they look like or transform into. They made Overlord into a tank, based on the tank portion of his Gen1 character toy. And they made Soundwave into a van thanks to their comic a couple years ago (and because the window chest resembles the gen1 robot mode's window)... but if they do a Treadshot (in any colour) that doesn't turn into a weapon, or looks like a lot like his Gen1 robot mode, then it would be one figure that isn't homaging it's Gen1 counterpart (as they had implied they would).
But I guess it couldn't be any worse than their Gen2 set a couple years ago, that hardly had any uniquely Gen2 character toys in it (had mostly Euro Gen1 characters and Gen2 recoloured Gen1 toy characters).

And Treadshot is a Jazz repaint... Um yeah.

This doesn't look very G1 or Shattered Glass at all..And Treadshot is a Jazz repaint... Um yeah.
Looks ok but I don't really care so will pass.

Oh TFwiki helpfully points out that he could be an SG version of Universe Treadshot not G1 Treadshot, which explains the Aramda Side Swipe-like colours, and that toy came with an Ultra Magnus so there's logic there but not what any one was expecting.

Yeah Maybe but it still feels rather forced as the 'shattered glass' version of Treadshot.
