Combiner Wars Toyline: Rumors, Speculation, Ideas etc

[CHILENO20]

Just realized that we don't have a CHUG versions of Pipes & Outback. Practically all the other minibots have had a new version done. Outback can be made from the Henkei Brawn version. Though I have heard some ideas of the Swerve/Gears mold can be used. Pipes is an easy one, another version of the Optimus mold with a new head.

I know that RtS Fallback can be repurposed as Outback, it just doesn't fit well with the rest of my CHUG's.

Anyway, my 2 cents

Botcon Fallback is a CHUG Outback too.

Botcon Fallback is a CHUG Outback too.

I do have him. Cool, so all we need is Pipes

Well from box art we are definetly getting CW Bruticus (we all figured that anyway) and the comic scan of the new Victorion combiner looks very cool!

Now just waiting to hear if Botcon gives out any teasers about what next years Combiner Wars line will be. Or if they are just going to move on to Titan Wars instead

When you think about it, the new Combiner that has Optimus, Prowl and Rodimus in it would have to be the most conflicted Combiner - the leg, torso and chestplate would all think that they should be the one in control of the gestalt - they'd be constantly telling other parts of the body to shut up! Might as well have a combiner made of Megatron, Starscream and Shockwave

Would make Menasor look downright sane

LOL!
In G1 it would be a perfect combiner, as everyone is like 'We are Autobots! Protect Humans! Stop Decepticons!'

In IDW, Optimus is like 'Freedom is the Right of All Sentient Beings', Rodimus is like 'Gotta be a hero' and Prowl is like 'That Autobot is expendable. Send him in and then I will calculate the distance of which this kick will send Menasor flying...'

Edit:
Mirage: 'I've had a vision.... ooohhhh'
Sunstreaker: I'm better then all of you'
Ironhide: 'Your days are numbered now Decepta Chops!'

Wonder what they are going to call the TFSS 4.0 Gestalt made up of the Mayhem Attack Squad?

Mayhemius? Attacksquadion? Randomfraggertron?

Heh - nice

I'm really surprised that the Collector Club hasn't been catering to this demand, as we won't see anyone else doing any more Animated redecos... instead it's Shattered Glass and obscure concepts like Diaclone. And from next year we are likely to see a lot of Combiner redecos... so Animated toys are even less likely.

Hmm. Red Hotspot as Prime, Black Groove as Prowl, Green Offroad as Bulkhead, First Aid as Ratchet and Yellow Breakdown as Bumblebee?

[UltimateGalvatron]

^ Please... no more Breakdown moulds... legs... so....crap....

Maybe a green Rook rather than Offroad for Animated Bulkhead. I'd also consider CW Optimus for, well, Optimus, Deluxe Groove for Prowl, and Blackjack for Bumblebee.
Also, toss in a Jazz from Dead End so you could make a combiner. The combiner head should totally look like the Headmaster unit.
