TFW2005 Member and my good friend shadow2879 told us that he recently had the privilege to visit Hasbro.
Here’s a list of upcoming toys according to what he found out:
- Two Movie Wheeljack/Que toys – One toy with the movie head and another with the “Classic” head [In my opinion they may have gone for a Transformers: Dark of the Moon Prequel Comic – Rising Storm Wheeljack]
- Two Mirage/Dino figures
- Mirage/Dino Human Alliance figure
- Decepticon Remold of Mirage [Just like DarkSteel from Sideswipe]
- Purplish Laserbeak repaint with a different head [B]Buzzsaw[/B]
We thank Shadow for bringing us this juicy toy news. If these do go into production, then I’m sure many of you will have lighter wallets very soon.

Guess the trilogy thread got derailed any news on upcoming release dates? I realize that just because something is slated for release it may take a while following for a true sighting. Just wondering if what we see in stores now is all we'll see until 2012.

Weird nothing of the list in this thread has been confirmed yet, is anything wrong?
Btw: I got bored to wait for leadfoot and ordered the shabby unlabeled deluxe from hlj (takara version) will add the decals myself
Shin Densetsu
Leader Optimus from TF PRIME, WHEN? Also, are any of the FOC's like Optimus going to be voyager or are they all deluxes like the WFC figures?
Stepper
Heard there is some trademark issue with Airachnid right,so eventually she will be issued right?
shadow2879
sure
HeroicC300
Okay.
Keep working Magic bro. Mind if I make a thread showing your (intentionally) vague season 2 autobot hints?
shadow2879
once we do get her… all i know of at this point is Deluxe
HeroicC300
They didn't get it. Though, hopefully we'll get him someday by process of elimination.
Any new Prime toys you can confirm, as well as Airachnid's Size Class?
shadow2879
I did say you could petition for him but that was it.
HeroicC300
I was the CV Raiden guy, and it wasn't he IS coming, it was can we get a Petition FOR him.
shadow2879
to be clear… yes we all seen that there were in the transformation directions of both Wheeljack and Laserbeak (new heads) pointing toward new toys down the line but I was the only one to mention that the new headed Laserbeak will be painted to look like Buzzsaw (purple accents) and that he will indeed be named Buzzsaw as well as the classic looking headed WJ would have a more classic looking paint job. In fact I was the only one to mention Wheeljacks classic paint job and we have that now confirmed from pics after the fact. As for a cyberverse raiden? That NEVER came from my mouth and or have I never messaged that info to ANYONE on ANY site or on the Internet for that matter. I can tell you all for fact that a cyberverse raiden is not happening. So whoever mentioned this info to you has got his/her info wrong. I only give info from what i see and or have been told from my Hasbro sources whether others believe or not. I only aim to help aid those who want legit info.
HeroicC300
Well, we should be seeing Mirage by December (pics anyways). Here's hoping.

Pfff foc confirmed and nothing for the prime and Movieline….. I'm not fine with that…

FOC toys were all-but-confirmed at the Hasbro design panel Q&A back at Botcon:
(paraphrasing from memory)
Q: If there's a War for Cybertron 2, will we get toys again?
A: Well, IF there's a WFC2, then I guess there'll be toys.
(cheers and applause from audience)

It's possible. While I'm not doubting shadow, I also can't help but realize that nothing he's revealed so far has actually been proven to be true, yet. Again, not doubting him, just pointing that out.

Also, FoC toys were coming anyway, no need to "predict" them. We knew about Buzzsaw, G1-inspired dotm wheeljack and others from official sources before that. I don't intend to attack this shadow dude, but I won't believe him until some of the more outlandish claims start to leak. It's the same person that apparently told another member that if we did a petition (…) hasbro would do a cyberverse raiden or whatever. Compare him with TCracker who can only give hints and accurately told us about Prime v2 and SS v2 before they were announced.
At least let's stop quoting him as if he was a 100% confirmed source. I have no problem with swallowing my words later and apologizing if he happens to be right.
