By way of Hasui Yuki’s Twitter account, we’ve got a look at the newly released third and so far final assortment of Transformers United EX releases. The final assortment features Assaultmaster (Crankcase redeco, as an Autobot), Buildmaster (Steamhammer redeco in full Constructicon lime green and purple) and a VS pack of Marinemaster VS Tankmaster (redecos of Undertow and Heavy Tread respectively, with each toy being redecoed as a member of the opposite faction).
Read on to check out our mirror of the images.

Rather they reissue more G1 combiner under Encore series than these

Is it too much to ask that they give us at least one astonishingly good combiner per annum, lol

So Much Missed Potiential.
Also that needs to be decoed as one of the Armada Sea Mini-cons.

Much credit to Takara. They have successfully shined a turd.

Not to mention the fact that earlier this year Takara gave us versions of, among others, Wipeout, Stripes, and Nightstalker. I think the concept of "too obscure" is out the window when it comes to Takara these days.
Which is, of course, awesome.

Given that they're pretty much grabbing character names out of a hat, not really matching them to the character design, logic, color scheme, popularity, or anything but alt-mode… Quake seems possible.
… I still can't believe that they made Grimstone's redeco Kakuryu. If they do that, then ANYTHING is on the table.
MegaDolrailer
Maybe there's still hope, what with him being in FOC.

I think Heavytread would've been a better fit for Assualtmaster

They definitely look different, almost not Transformers looking in a way. But still they would be cool to own.

Me too! Not even a DevyGreen repaint of the quite nice Steamhammer will manage to lure me in. The drone concept is just too silly. Money saved, YAY!

Me too.

I'm glad I think these look kinda stupid.

Tempted by the Tankmaster/Marinemaster set. Those are the two best PCC molds, in my opinion. Like others, I'm curious about which pre-existing characters these are actually meant to represent (Waver does seem likely, the colors match).
I really want that Undertow mold redeco'd as Manta Ray, so while this looks nice it still seems like a missed opportunity.
I've decided that Quake is just one of those forgotten characters. There have been at least three or four molds over the last few years that would have made great Quake redecos, and he's just never shown up. Which is a shame, as he has a good name and interesting colors.

Pass!

The white boat might be Waver, since we have already seen some Victory characters.

Tankmaster has to be Quake right? RIGHT?

If I find the heavytread repaint set for a good price I'll definitely grab it. I love that figure.
Also why with the small pics. Its almost like any pics from Asian countries have to bee too small as a prereq.

US Crankcase + JP Crankcase limbs = Yes

Is the Rotobolt minicon partnered with Marine Master clear blue plastic? Interesting if so, I figured all of the minicons released as part of this would end up in normal plastic since I thought that's what all of the others were so far (I don't have them in hand so I'm just going off of pics I've seen online).

The Heavytread and Undertow repaints look nice.
