Will there be an Earthrise Inferno?

[GoktimusPrime]

I guess I'm the only one who'd rather see Generations focus on new characters - either ones who've never been done as mass-release CHUGs before (e.g. Hotlink) or wholly new characters (e.g. Scrapface) over characters who've already been CHUGgified before. <shrugs>

[SMHFConvoy]

Well it's either Inferno or a generation selects Artfire.

[Tha_Phantom]

Either Earthrise or the third chapter of WFC.

[DELTAprime]

Well it's either Inferno or a generation selects Artfire.

Why not both?

[Tilarta]

The Combiner Wars version of Inferno was wholly inadequate in my personal opinion, just the third reuse of the Pyra Magna mould/design.

One using Grapple's mould/design would be more G1 authentic.

Why not both?

And Hauler
Make it an exclusive 3 pack while we're at it too

Well Hasbro seems to be doing every single G1 character they can dig up at some point.

I skipped that toy entirely and just stuck with my Henkei Inferno. I didn't need a second CHUG Inferno back then, and I don't feel the need for a third CHUG Inferno now. <shrugs>

I would buy that in a heartbeat! Even if it were an exclusive three pack, I'd probably buy the set and sell off the surplus characters.

And there's still SO much G1 left untapped. My dream is to see all of G1 done as CHUG. This is something that I should probably continue discussing in a separate thread...

Looked up Henkei Inferno, whatever that was meant to be, not a G1 themed Inferno apparently.

So for me personally, they still haven't released an proper G1 CHUG Inferno.

They haven't. And oh I want to start a discussion but I'm worried how people will take it. I am all for new characters too, I would love to see more of them but I don't think repainting such a distinctive looking G1 character and saying "now he's Scrapmetal" works. When they reuse the Grapple figure as Inferno (and Artfire) make the most sense and more than making him purple and calling him "Hightower" (or versions of Hot Spot and Pyro(.
