    Deluxe Crashbar, new Junkion character named by Mark
    Redecos of these modular Junkions are teased
    Deluxe Shrapnel
    Deluxe crosscut, the red wheels are because they are o the same plastic tree as the hands which needed to be red. Mark admits he was apprehensive about the red wheels.
    Deluxe Animated Prowl

    Voyager Metalhawk, based on the Cyclonus mold
    Voyager Twincast has a different smirking face sculpt and comes with Rewind

    Leader Skyquake which is a merge of G1 and Prime design and has tabs for Needlenose to dock onto (as we previously saw).

    Reveals of toys in the pipeline (no indication aside from names and some character art):

    Beachcomber
    Devcon
    Axelgrease (Editor note: this is probably the deluxe car that looks like Lockdown)
    voyager Dirge rerelease
    "Nemesis Leo Prime"
    Armada Megatron

    Classic deco Optimus Prime using the Volvo truck mold from the Holiday Prime. With this truck being the most common one many see on the street, it would make sense that this would be Optimus' alt mode if he awakened on earth today.

    Just and FYI from the Hasbro team, February will be a light month for reveals but they will be back in a big way in March.

    Devcon as SS Scourge recolour I bet. Curious how Armada Megatron will look, I wonder if they will G1 him, or will they have some Minicon action going on.

    Pardon my ignorance, but why is this? G2 Smokescreen/BB connections?

    I think the Euro Skyquake could have the smaller Predator jets plug in somewhere, so could be homaging that.

    Yeah, that was a gimmick of the Predators sub-line. You could plug the jets into the ICBM of Stalker or Sky Quake. I never had Sky Quake, but I did have Stalker and it was a really tight fit getting the jets to connect to Stalker's ICBM.
    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.

    Yes he had a scope they could plug into similar, to Stalkers rocket, you could look into it and see a different image based on which Predator jet you had plugged in

    I've heard all three coneheads are getting reissued. They just picked Dirge first.

    I genuinely can't decide if that Metalhawk is amazing or absolutely terrible. The colours really pop, but the altmode looks funky. Not in a way that stands out as immediately terrible, just weird.

    I think I'm one of about 8 people in the world who didn't like Kingdom Cyclonus so I'll probably give it a miss.
    I'm really just here for the free food and open bar.

    A second go at Bomb-Burst should help people out. It really wouldn't hurt if they did a bit more of that in general. Wasn't that long ago that wave 3 and 4 and 5 would occur with a couple of new figures and older ones with them, feels like that happens less and less, if you miss in a wave (like that wave just doesn't appear) you miss it altogether (or wait for Reject Shop/TK Maxx)

    If there was any doubt that the Dinobots/Volcanicus were pre/co-tools for Dinoking, the T-Rex member become a leg should blow those away.
