    You can see here that much of the base figure's flame art is covered and what is exposed is not part of a flowing pattern so it can be anything.
    I see it, the thing that would determine it for most people then would be Rodimus' spoiler/wings.

    WB-002 must be the Warbot Defender 'Evil Clone. OF YOU!!' version.

    Knowing FansProjects, the figure is likely to be more than just a repaint perhaps with new wapons and some re-molding.

    I dunno dude, it could also easily be their 'Broadside' as that's been in development for a while now:

    Looks like Not-Broadside is part of the Warbot line, so maybe. Though as Kup says, could be a repaint with new weapons and such. I reckon they would like to get as much out of a mold as they could. Look at the new Causality line, they are repaint/remolds of Not-Swindle and Not-Blast-Off. Suppose we can speculate until we get an official word from them.

    Though we know Broadside was planned long ago, we haven't heard any real word they they are still going with it. Though I personally think that Warbot 002 will be Broadside. And I hope he looks good. He deserves a better release than the slab of plastic he got lol

    Indeed, it is entirely plausible that WB-002 is as Kup says, a repaint/remold of Not-Springer and, 1AZRAEL1, you make a good argument on the 'Get the most out of it' point but I dunno, I guess I'm just really hoping for Not-Broadside as I'd love a new Triplechanger and Broadside would be really cool IMO.

    Does anyone think that Crossfire-03 could be the Glacialbots that were hinted at in the back of the Protector comic?:





    I'm personally of the opinion that it may be a Classicsverse Devastator upgrade kit but someone was saying that FansProject said at Botcon that they wouldn't be touching that Hasbro mess - which could be true as some of their designers maybe be working with TFC on the Giant Not-Devastator.

    I too want Broadside, I am just stating that we could all be wrong until FP say something official

    Dunno, I haven't got my Protector yet But it seems quite plausible.

    I really like what they've done with Warcry and Flameblast - love the new heads and weapons.

    It seems that Warbot-002 is not a repaint of Springer/Defender.

    It was pointed out that FP add a letter to the end of their product names for repaints. e.g. Shadow Scyther is TFX-04B. So a Defender repaint would be named WB-001B.

    Venksta also pretty much confirmed that WB-002 is either Broadside or Wreck-Gar.

    I did some digging and found out some info. I'm posting here what I've posted at Seibertron:

    Just to share some info with the fandom. Venksta made some comments on TFW2005 & the Allspark that shed a little light on some things (and make me more confused about others :???.

    Also, from the many requests about Crossfire-03, don't be surprised if it turns out green first.

    I am neither confirming or denying anything with that last statement.

    So something that's been green before, but not always, that's not Constructicon related... gah, my brain.
    Well, I back tracked on my previous comment, from the last FP announcement. FP has heard what fans really want. So there could be a chance Crossfire-03 might not be what they intended, but what fans want it to be. This confirms nothing though.

    Well, FPJ did show off silhouettes of not-Broadside and not-Wreckgar.

    Yup, that is true. So Crossfire is not limited to combiners only. Causality is by the same designer, but that line is for stand alone figures now.

    The first Crossfire (the Superion upgrade) is possible evidence of this. Before FP formally announced the release, prototype pics and maybe some 3D renders had already surfaced, with no credit attached. And in that case, the development process was far enough along that I don't believe it got the typical coverage on FP's homepage. FP's usual procedure is to debut their new project on their site first.
    That was the original idea. But all of the Crossfire/Causality series is done by one designer, who is now part of the group. So its no longer a "guest designer" line or series. All in house.
