Take this with an appropriate amount of salt, friends – TFmizer on Facebook have posted up what they claim is a list of Transformers toys for 2017. The list is made of two parts. The first part appears to be mostly things which have been rumored previously.
- Predaking
- Leaders: Overlord, Black Shadow, Quickswitch
- Voyager: Blitzwing, Octane, Tidal Wave
- Deluxe: Arcee, Perceptor, Kup, Nautica, Fastlane, Cloudraker, Wingspan, Pounce, Getaway
- Legends: Beachcomber, Cosmos
So far, things we’ve heard, either from leaks or from store listings.
The second half of the listing is the part you’ll want that salt for, as it is full of names we’ve either seen as toys in one form or another recently, or just seems to stretch credibility – though again a couple of these have been seen before, or had toys in the last couple of years, which make us skeptical:
- Deathsaurus, Starscream, Abominus, Dinobot
- Huffer, Windcharger, Seaspray, Grotusque
- Flywheels, Battletrap, Snapdragon, Godbomber
- Blood, Darkwing, Dreadwind, Black Zarak, Landcross, Carnivac

If there's a current discussion going on in the Toy forum, then there is no need to bump this old thread with no new information.

There's more discussion on how unbelievably accurate this list has been here:
Anyone Remember The Original Source of This Rumor List (See Screenshot)?
GAUGE

I was going to add that but I must've forgot. Thank you.

I'm fairly certain the CW one isn't what they meant. Huffer too. It's either a reissue or a new one. So we likely have a new Deathy on the horizon.
lordcryotek
That was my guess, actually. HasCon, looking to live up to its name…
Scrapper6
They better fucking not be.
Terradives
Ui think the missing box sets will be hascon exclusives.

I swear if this is all confirmed I will have to live on cardboard for a few months…please be real…I want my abominus

Just to translate, the top part of the list states confirmed, while the bottom part of the list starting from Deathsaurus states not confirmed. The Chinese characters beside Dinobot translates to Robot Dinosaur; this means G1 Dinobots, and not Beast Wars Dinobot.

I wonder if the Black Zarak on that list was a reference to whatever the Scorponok Titan master noted on the Trypticon poster?
I remember that list seeming pretty far fetched and now it's more than 75% revealed.
Seth Sunthay
Plz deathsaurus.
BlackHawkOmega
I'm just reposting the pic, since Photobucket just doesn't work anymore or whatever, and uh, they also said Beachcomber was coming.
Like, don't tease me about the possibility of Predaking AGAIN. I can't take it!

Boom. So… which TM name goes with Laser Prime? The others are pretty obvious.
Purple Heart
Yeah thats what I was going to get at.
NeilJam
He was apparently planned to be the stand-alone Titan Master for the fireblast set, and Ultra Magnus was to fill that spot in the intelligence set.
Though some are on the wrong list and one has an alternate name, The list on the Trypticon cereal poster lists all TMs released through wave 5 plus one deluxe for wave 6. It also accounts for TMs in the two box sets and the two pack with Orion Pax. Three TMs on the list have no known release: Scorponok and Ultra Magnus mentioned above, and Leinad who should accompany Arcee.
