The War For Cybertron Trilogy Fan vote is ending today. Fans have the chance to vote, using a hashtag, which Generations two-pack they would like to see in the next Transformers Generations line. You can cast your vote on the Transformers Facebook or Instagram pages. The choices are:
- Wheeljack Vs. Spinister
- Needlenose Vs. Tracks
- Impactor Vs. Mirage
The Official Transformers Instagram page has also added some answers to questions from the fans and give us some insight into what we might be able to expect as far as these two packs go.
Q: Aren’t Needlenose and Tracks brothers? A: Yep! And, you’ll get a glimpse into what drove them apart and led to them joining the Autobots and Decepticons in the War for Cybertron trilogy! Get Excited!
Q: Why antoher Wheeljack figure, we recently got him as a toy? A: Wheeljack is one of the few Autobots whose Cybertronian vehicle alt-mode is seen in the original 1984 pilot episode of “The Transformers”. This version has never before been created in toy.
Q: Why does Impactor wear a Decepticon logo? A: Much like the bounty hunter Doubledealer (who bears the Autobot crest), Impactor wears faction logos which do not align with his true nature as a Transformer. You’ll learn why and how he came to wear the Autobot crest, instead, in the untold stories of the War for Cybertron Trilogy.
Voting ends at midnight tonight!

I have a theory
these are all remolds/recolors
Hasbro already has plans to release these molds as other characters and these are just the pre-molds/ or remolds of said characters
Starscream-Needlenose
Runamuck is the other car
Sharpnel is indeed a deluxe insecticon
Gnaw……..no idea

I don’t think it’ll be like that card, if that’s what you’re thinking.
Fenrys
Why would it be? All fan votes have been new molds except for the one time the fan vote was for 6 figures

Is this new Needlenose a remold of Siege Starscream?
T-Hybrid
Either Runamuck/Runabout or another character who could be a similar design/mold.
Digger
If he shows up in the next vote I think we’ll know how this works by now.

When I checked this morning Needlnose had roughly 180, and Runamuck had 90.
I think it’s already a given.
Hopefully Runamuck is still planning to be released.

Needlenose has another chance, go to Hasbro TF FB page and comment #Needlenose

It kinda fits. Once you know what the hell is going on Robots in Disguise has been used 3 times since 1984. I wouldn't doubt seeing War for Cybertron uses a 3rd time at some point it's a pretty good title. But at same time I agree it is confusing.

Thanks man I didn't wanna read this thread o read alot of threads in full, as that's how I like to read them, and this one I had no interest. s'Why I mentioned that Mainly bc I can't vote.anyway I was just intrested in the upcoming event. I'd like to read more on that but I haven't seen anything about it. Does it have to do with that animated movie we heard about since last year?
jamarmiller
im kind of hoping we get an updated/cartoon accurate version of Jet Storm from Beast Machines, like we did with Tankor. An Obsidian and Striker cartoon accurate versions would be nice too.
They got cybertron modes so why not !
Hanzkaz
That's my reasoning. Ideally, I would have liked Impactor to be a Voyager but I'm hoping for the Windblade Effect. Also, once Hastak do Impactor, then perhaps there's a better chance of finally getting a new Rack'n'Ruin figure (and hopefully one of Emirate Xaaron) as well.
Saying that, I do want a new Spinister and Needlenose as well.

A Deluxe Wheeljack with his alt-mode from the pilot?
Now i\'m interested!
thedicemaster
is there actually any generation that didn't have transformers that turned into oddly random objects?
I know G1 had lampposts, stereos, cassettes, and a handgun.
the movies had a whole sub-line dedicated to this(real gear) as well as some actually effective robots in disguise in the movies themselves(TV laserbeak, a wristwatch, radio frenzy)
I still have a camcorder lying around from armada.
and the most recent cartoon, RiD, had fixit who once turned into a powertool.(not as useful as you'd think, so he only did it once)
GWolfv2
I didn't think they were accepted?

Is there a different average age demographic on Facebook vs Instagram? The Needlenode and Spinister votes were similar to each other in both, but Imactor came last on Instagram and was a clear winner on Facebook
There were also Twiter votes, and votes in the comments on Hasbro Pulse.
DaveWire
Hah! Now that looks like a Cylon Toaster.
Smitty.1981
If he does not won this Hasbro may get the idea that he's not popular enough to ever get another toy.
CybertronianFan
Best you're gunna get is that Bay'formers fig. Otherwise you're looking at crazy sheet like …
