Double Punch is an interesting pull, but I guess to keep the name going. No doubt this will be a SS107 Scorponok repaint, basically because every other Double Punch has been loosely based on alternate versions of Scorponok.

There were three versions of the scorpion modeled for the movie: Sandstorm, Scorponok, and Double Punch.

Interesting. I watch the films, but dont know enough about the Behind the scenes to differentiate. I just figure they wanted to use the mold as many times as possible .

For instance, I have no idea if Novakane from Freezer was planned (like the above Scorponoks) or if Hasbro just wanted to recolor the tiny Terrorcon.

Novakane was in the movie. He and Freezer were Scourge's two main sidekicks.

I'm a bit annoyed the ROTB Leader Scourge isn't on the list for 2025. He isn't getting a refresh for 2024, right? I still need him...

[Rodimus Prime]

I always thought the CW Constructicons were in scale with the SS86 Dinobots, so I figured if we got SS86 versions of them, it would be just a repackaged CW Devy. But I guess these will be all new, with better articulation and better individual bot and vehicle modes.

And Shockwave is always welcome.

However, the previous Optimus Prime figures from SS have all been voyager sized, so I wonder how much bigger the leader AoE will be, or if it will be pretty much the same size with more parts.

I'd wager more parts. Let's face it. Of all the Prime versions we've seen, that was the most organic and streamlined. I think having the extra parts may help with accuracy. I'm not expecting a Leader "sized" figure, just an accurate one.

I am hoping and expecting that he will be the same size in robot mode as the others but would have extra engineering to make the transformation work without a lot of kibble.

DOTM QUE LET'S GOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!

And Hatchet will return! Too bad we'll have to wait another year, but at least they're coming! It's also a weird coincidence that there was a seven year gap between Crankcase (in 2011) and Crowbar (in 2018), and now there will seemingly be another seven year gap until the last Dread, with Hatchet in 2025.

Thought I'm through with G1 after Swoop & Sandstorm (I'm not refreshing the minibots) but damn... Devastator! Now are we getting a redo Predaking in a year or three?

[Agent 53]

I've heard rumours that in Transformers One the characters will gradually upgrade and evolve from those leaked, not all that transformer looking designs that have done the rounds through to something that looks more like normal Transformers, I'm guessing that the A-Level Deluxe Optimus will be that first body.

The MV 6 Bumblebee is curious, I suspect either it is a redo of the Beetle to be more accurate to the film, or a take on the Camaro design (since it has a distinct robot mode to the 07 version).

[Razorbeast88]

I'm curious about 86 devastator, apelinq and sentinel Prime

The previous A Level Prime was listed as TF8 (TF:One) so that's possible, though I wonder what DEV is supposed to mean. Devolved? Developmental? Deviation? Dark Energon Variant? Guess we'll have to wait until next year to find out. If it has nothing to do with TF:One then the first thing that came to mind was Devastation.

DEV for Devastation, as in the game. All cell-shaded and very G1 would be my bet.

I really hope Apelinq gets some proper retooling and isn't just Leader Optimus Primal in gray.

That would be a huge bummer
I'm hoping for the retooling aa well, I'd imagine it'd just be both heads and the arms?

[Coptur]

I'm guessing Hook & Long Haul will be Voyager pricing scale maybe perhaps for the extra bits but I would hope that they will incorporate all the parts/bits this time round.

If they're doing anything resembling scale then Hook will probably be a pretty long alt mode with proper crane arm and simply too much to fit in a Deluxe package. Long Haul will probably be pretty similar to the Titan version and be extra sturdy to support Devastator and maybe include his forearms and fists. I doubt we'll see full integration of parts this time aside from maybe Devy's head and crotch cover.

Definitely interested in seeing what he'll look like.

I completely missed that legs are also Voyager pricing but I can't believe the torso pieces could be anything bigger like leader class but with the recent triple change anything goes I guess

[1984forever]

DEV Optimus Prime for the 10th anniversary of the game makes sense. Hopefully we’ll finally get those conehead generics and blue and yellow Battlechargers shortly after. They’ll probably be DEV Constructicon repaints too.

[-Kanrabat-]

I played around with SS CABMM Megatron and he's definitely the new RiD Dragon Megatron. This small ting pack so many fan modes!



I know people already gave him a gun mode, but I bet there's more than one way. Here's mine.



And here's a Mech Warrior / Front Mission style mech:

[Gearslide]

I guess Scrapper and Mixmaster being Voyagers is going to be a similar case to SS86 Hot Rod: Deluxe Scale but Voyager-level engineering. They are the legs holding up the entire combiner after all. And they might even have proper Ankle Tilts for the big guy! Meanwhile Bonecrusher and Scavenger only need to have a single peg or catch flip out in vehicle mode to form the G1 accurate Shoulders and upper arms for Devastator.

Assuming they really go for Scale with these Constructicons, I could see them being Deluxe sized, with some combiner kibble.

Maybe Hook will be a Leader or Commander Price Point and include the Head, Forearms, Waist & Thighs, and Chestplate. Sort of similar to how they handled Motormaster recently. If there is a solid piece made just for Devastator's waist and it doesn't need to worry about transforming to form it, Long Haul could just form the Stomach and be his smaller G1 Design and in scale with the others!.

[Brokebot]

Here I was thinking my collecting was winding down and decides to drop a new Constructicon set.

Damn it.

[Tyrannacon]

Wellp, still no shipping notification from Amazon regarding my BB Concept Megatron. It still keeps saying this though:

Which has me feeling this way:

So we'll see I guess. I am not confident.

[D-Maximal_Primal]

Pretty exciting stuff on the list!

Que at last! We can finally complete the DotM Autobot cast! (we just need Ironhide with new guns to be fully accurate)

Apelinq, thank goodness they are doing him too.

Hatchet finds retail! Thank you! Dreads can finally be complete!

Doublepunch will be nice, I will take repaints of the scorponoks for army building purposes.

AOE Prime will probably be a lot like Shockwave or DotM Megatron, pretty dense to give priority to engineering. Here is hoping they find a way to make that work, I have always loved Knight Prime!

Novakane was in the movie. He and Freezer were Scourge's two main sidekicks.

There were tons of those tiny little Terrorcons, not sure how you can tell them apart. Unless the first one in the museum was supposed to be Freezer, and the one chasing Noah and museum lady in the cave was Novakane?Then all the ones on the battlefield at the end were generics?

Where can I find those designs? This is the first I'm hearing of them.
