I have a list of all G1 characters that have been released in CHUG form. You can find it here. Please feel free to let me know if I got anything wrong so I can fix it.
We now have pictures of Chop Shop and Barrage. Better and more involved re-tools than I expected.
Possible images of the Walmart Star Raiders (AKA Star Seekers) line – Lockdown, Cannonball, Filch and Ferak
All repaints/retools of existing figures as a new set of Space Pirates

So I see they really did go with a repainted Cyclonus for Ferak, despite the two unrelated Marvel comics characters to whom the name has been attached (and just how did the Decepticon killed by Rodimus Prime end up labelled so? Who decided that?) looking nothing like that. Definitely a time when I wish the designers would not pay any heed to TFWiki but actually make the effort to look at the source material.
We're getting Cannonball before Cybertron Red Alert lol.
Though with Armada Red Alert being rumoured, it would be interesting to have 2 toys based off Unicron Triolgy Red Alert.
Also I'm pretty doped that I can finally get a Lockdown figure.
I'll update this when I'm needing help finding particular figures
In this case, the source material is actually Botcon 2014, not Marvel G1. The theme that year was Pirates vs Knights (yeah, I know, it made no sense).
That said, I really do not see why Hasbro is integrating Botcon characters and concepts into official Hasbro products. The best years of Botcon were when they made G1 characters Hasbro never got around to, like the Seekers from MTMTE Part 1 (which they incorrectly named the Rain Makers).

It does seem like they are trying to erase memories of BotCon by redoing so many of those concepts. Maybe they saw BotCon aftermarket prices and thought we should be getting that cash, lets put out our own Antagony, SG Starscream, Ferak etc
These pirates are now officially revealed via Walmart, with pics of alt mode and packaging https://news.tfw2005.com/2024/03/07/...-images-505361
And lo, we have pictures of SS86 Swoop.

In a move that will shock nobody given he's a remould of suspiciously Sideburn looking character, RID Sideburn has been leaked.
