Combiner Wars Toyline: Rumors, Speculation, Ideas etc

[CaminusPrime]

I hope they do pull at least the rest of the Technobots so we can have Computron.

Yeah they could definitely pull it off with a few retools. Afterburner would likely have to be a retool of takara groove so maybe computron could be done by takara?

Well the NYCC Prime Wars Trilogy video they showed ended with the VoiceOver "The Combiner Wars are just beginning" then a screen shot of the title 'Combiner Wars 2016' so that sounds like there is a lot more to come yet

Squeeeeeeeeeeee!

oh don't get your hopes up yet .... we're not even sure if they'll do animal (like) or creature moulds for combiners... though I am hoping as well...a good break from the usual vehicle repaints..


Is Victorion even for mass release, Isn't she an exclusive club release or something?

Victorion is a retail box set release like the two G2 releases, due April/May next year.

Was looking at the teaser image for the Takara gestalt using Cyclonus as the body.

For limbs my first thought was use the Battle Squad. Their colour scheme would work with Cyclonus.

Half-track could be a Rook repaint and Meltdown an Off-Road repaint and make this gestalt's legs. Fireshot and Vanquish could be two separate jets now, one for each arm?

Direct-Hit and Power Punch could always be later, TakTom Mall-exclusive repaints of Off-Road and Brawl.

The Military Patrol would make a great set of limbs for a combiner too as they could all easily be made from existing toys: Growl from Swindle, Bombshock from Brawl, Dropshot from Rook, and Tracer from Alpha Bravo.

Of course they were Autobots in Japan but Cyclonus is supposed to use any Transformer to make a combiner right?

If they sync these limbs with Cyclonus it would be complete a gravy-train.

Would've liked Cosmos to be Skyreign's chest piece.

Would've liked Cosmos to be Skyreign's chest piece.

Nice idea.

Okay this is just straight up for now my idea....made this random reply in the thread on facebook, fro a post by fatbot.... I dunno if someone already has made the same but Im hoping Takara Tomy does a Liokaizer or mebbe Hasbro picks it up so we get an extra 7th member.

The base parts are already there, but will need a retool for the heads and some other parts...albeit minor I guess
and they have a albeit dead member they can use as a bonus figure too.

Leozack - a retooled Cyclonus/Silverbolt - coz unfortunately we need still a bigger base body for this incarnation to work ( logically Air raid mold should be his recoloured mould, but we need a base torso)

Hellbat and Guyhawk - both can be a recoloured, retooled Sydive

Jaruga - a bit more retooled or they can get away with just colouring one of the Stunticons and using the missle attachment foot/handplate to immitate the misslelauncher

Drillhorn - with the release of the botconDrilltank (Predacus theme) we now can speculate they'll use it for the official Nosecone figure (Computron) so just a recolour and new head mould and there you have him

Killbison - again they can retool the Brawl mould a bit, just give him another cannon or something to make him double cannon


As for the extra member

Deathcobra - you might have guessed by now, of course that ever overused Alpha bravo/ Blades mould...

and there you go Loikaizer!!!


What do you guys think?

^I think, LiegePrime the President of TakaraTomy has a nice ring to it. I'd vote for you!
