if they release Grapple then i believe that this mold has a shot to do Artfire as Tokyo Toy Show exclusive next year (versus Irohide/Ratchet to do a Black or Green Deco)Originally Posted by MayzaPrime
It is looking that way so far. I am also excited for all of the retool/repaints, like others have mentioned Artfire (hopefully) with a Targetmaster will be a distinct possibility. Grapple and Hauler only add to my excitement

I am looking forward to this release, more than any other MP's for a while. Grapple more so.

I just want all the other Mps that are long outstanding.

As we all do, haha. I'm sure over the years we'll get all the characters. Even an official Skyfire!

So from Inferno we may end up with:
Grapple (obvious choice)
Roadhauler
Artfire
Inferno+
I love all the MP's but can they please devote a little more time to Decepticons. I was just looking at my Decepticon MP shelf and its just so full of seekers.

They were hoping to make you happy with them.
I thought insecticons aren't hard, or reflector but oh well money saved.

Proportionately speaking, more Decepticons have been done as MPs than Autobots. Let's look at all the toy-characters from 1984-85 who also appeared in the G1 cartoon (so we're excluding characters like the Jumpstarters, Deluxe Insecticons etc.). And we'll including characters that we know are coming soon as MPs; i.e. Inferno and Thrust.
Autobots = 13/39* or 33% have been done as MPs
Decepticons = 13/25** or 52% have been done as MPs
If your Decepticon MP shelf is looking less densely populated than your Autobot MP shelf, it'd be because there were simply fewer Decepticons in G1 than Autobots, thus there is a more limited pool of G1 Decepticon characters for TakaraTOMY to make MP products from. HasTak have tried to flesh out the Decepticon ranks with new G1 characters like Sunstorm, Acid Storm and Exhaust, Loud Pedal etc. but they've also bolstered the Autobots with new G1 characters too, such as Road Rage, Tiger Track, Clampdown etc., so this ends up offsetting any numerical advantage that the Decepticons may have had. And as you've pointed out, each new Autobot MP that comes out as more redeco potentials as other Autobots. Inferno adds 1 to the Autobot count, but he carries the redeco potential of becoming MP Grapple, Hauler and Artfire!
