It isn't like Beast Wars doesn't have its own combiners, though they're a bit different than the G1 ones.

I know that, but I was suggesting a 5-part combiner that had five Beast Wars characters that were not combiners in the original cartoon or comics (or as original toys)... just to really see if it would rub up BW fans the wrong way.Originally Posted by Zommael

I can't see why they couldn't just drop Best Wars Characters in amongst the toy line, look at Rhinox, Rattrap and Waspinator this year. not officially part of the thrilling 30 but still in the main line.

Optimus, Rattrap, Rhinox, Cheetor, and Dinobot combine to form... Firstepisodicus!I know that, but I was suggesting a 5-part combiner that had five Beast Wars characters that were not combiners in the original cartoon or comics (or as original toys)... just to really see if it would rub up BW fans the wrong way.
I thought the Thrilling 30 was Hasbro's 30-odd not-very-special toys that they released last year (the store exclusives and Platinum editions). Didn't think it had anything much to do with Generations apart from Windblade being considered part of it.
If the Computron rumour turns out to be true, I wonder if Scattershot would end up being a heavy retool of Silverbolt. Unfortunately, if Defensor and Computron are the other two combiners we don't know about yet, that would leave the Decepticons with just two combiners, and for those who don't want to buy redecos, make a hard choice between Optimus Prime and Motormaster. It does seem likely, though I wonder what happened to the rumoured first season Autobots who were going to combine with Optimus?
It does leave the question of what the other Voyager might be wide open. I'd hope for another Decepticon, but which one? If they are planning on extending the series to next year, I suppose they could release Onslaught this year and the rest of the Combaticons next. Onslaught would probably be a redeco of Hot Spot, as speculated.
Final point of speculation: it would seem likely that Afterburner and Groove would share a mould. If that is the case, then who would be the sixth member of the Technobots?

It's more likely to come with Tigatron because Cheetor is dead. And Airazor is a legend that becomes a gun.
Oh and Cheetor is in the TakTom release and a TRU exclusive.

If it is true... Computron would be an awesome addition to the CW line up. Computron and Abominus have to be wave mates.
Predaking is the largest of all the G1 combiners, IMO he needs to be 5 Voyager sized toys but not as big as the titan Devastator.
I dont think that will happen, I am sure it will be 1 voyager and 4 deluxe but I still will be happy with that.

If it was that or nothing I guess I'd be ok with that, but I'd much rather new non combining molds for the show cast that haven't got them yet.I know that, but I was suggesting a 5-part combiner that had five Beast Wars characters that were not combiners in the original cartoon or comics (or as original toys)... just to really see if it would rub up BW fans the wrong way.
guess we'll see what the second half of 2016 may bring.
Computron is cool anyway so hopefully the 2016 assortment of combiner wars won't disappoint. Computron, Bruticus?, Abominus?, etc? and if all else fails Maximal Maximus featuring Voyager Optimus Primal, Deluxe Tigatron, Airrazor, Silverbolt and Rhinox and legends Rattrap?
