@Fasttrack @AirjitzuRonin hmm…

It's strange only Combiner Force figures involving combination are in the app. Also strange is if you scan a missing Combiner Force figure (such as Legion Springload or Warrior Stormshot) give you Cryostasis figures. Figures in the app like Crash Combiners or Activator Combiners don't give you tickets and instead just unlock the character.
Also every single pack Mini-Con Weaponizer from Wave 2 except for the red Windstrike is missing. They were actually never added to the game. The red Windstrike was but no one else. Odd. If only we could reach out to Hasbro and tell them the app is having problems.

These were the only new guys added in the update
For whatever reason, Stormshot and the rest of wave 1 of Combiner force have yet to be added beyond the crash combiners and activators.
And none of the other revealed figures besides crash combiners and activators have been added. I'm sure they will get in eventually. But they weren't in this update for whatever reason.
EDIT: however. Looking through the characters again. I have noticed that oddly "Warrior Power Surge Optimus Prime" (the version with the red shoulders) has vanished from the game. So now only "Warrior Power Surge Optimus Prime Eite" remains (the version with the white shoulders)
Odd considering they were both previously in the game and both versions released at retail
The white shouldered "elite" version as a toys r us exclusive alongside Paralon and Starscream
The red shoulders version as a mass retail release in the same wave as Scorponok and Windblade

@Fasttrack any other new guys?

Shocknado is the best pun-name I've heard in while.
got cassetteacon look to him too.

I don't think Ultrabee has the same combination scheme as the other two (at least in the series).
Grimlock is bigger than any of the carbots, so I'm guessing he forms the waist *and* legs. Meanwhile the other two combiners are five bots, so the torso-bot also forms the upper legs.
And I think people are assuming Cyclonus because we know that he is getting a figure later.
They've pulled in Windblade, so it's possible they're going to cement Cyclonus/Galvatronus as continuity now as well.

The names aer\'nt that good but sharknado\'s design is straight on bad ass.

The names are what was bothering me, not the designs.

Cool we finally get another look at the Ultra Bee and Menasor characters. Those cartoon images look awful particular I wonder if they will have warrior class Combiners as well as Crash Combiners? I'm guessing crash combiners we'd see by April or May and Warrior Class (deluxe) combiners would be later in the fall winter time. That's IF they even did warrior class Combiners. I'm just speculating but i bet if we harass Hasbro enough about it our chances are better.
Lunar Force is just a blue colored Primestrong. Not a class. But it would be nice if they categorized it wrong although im betting it will be in a crash combiner assortment. It just seems to be the budget we get with this lime, rather then full scale combiners. Like I mentioned above if the.combiners become really.prevelant in the show especially, then if Hasbro isn't already thinking it I'm sure we can all band together & keep Hasbro on their toes and let them know we want Warrior Class deluxe combiners. That's probably about as good as its gonna get in rhis line..
Well not necessarily. But I'm sure Ultra Bee and Menasor are. We've already seem their cartoon models, albeit a bit blurry.
It looked like Galvatronus Is a repaint/remold off Menasor.
All iy is is Prime and Strongarm makinh a combiner as well as the Bee Team I think it's quite brilliant especially if they can bring the toys to life with movement. Have you seen the cartoon images of the combiner characters ? Like Menasor and Ultra Bee? REALLY COOL LOOKING.. Check em out!
Thundershot
No Thermidor?
Also, are we sure that's Cyclonus? If it's like Beeprime and Menasor, the legs belong to the torso, and there're wheels on his legs.

Excuse me for a moment
OFF ROAD HELL YEAH
Ok, continue.

UltraBee . PrimeStrong. What? Who? Why?

I'm usually big on combiners, but these look too simplistic/ crummy individual modes (if there will even be any). Genuinely hope the kiddies enjoy them though. Surprised that "Galvatronus" is being used again. I thought it was going to end up as a one-time thing in CW. Makes me want a separate CW shuttle Blast Off so i can do my own Galvy combiner with the 4 misfit limbs and not have to pull apart any official CW combiners…
Windsweeper II
But the picture shows each of his limbs with four wheels.
T-Hybrid
Based on the in-game model, Menasor has 4 wheels on both legs. (Same with Galvatronus).
So it's possible Wildbreak is supposed to be Wildrider but then also Off-Road is there. So the configuration is Motormaster in the center, DragStrip and Wildbreak as arms, and Offroad/Dead-End as legs.
This would make sense in the series, as Grimlock is bigger than the standard car formers. There's also the possibility that Motormaster somehow forms the torso and one leg…which would be a pretty cool combiner to see executed in toy form.
Prime135
Ooooook… odd
Jalaguy
The blue guy is "Wildbreak", per a store shelf label for the "Dragbreak" Crash Combiner (Dragstrip & Wildbreak).
The Menasor line-up looks to be Motormaster, Dragstrip, Wildbreak, and what I'm guessing is Offroad, judging by the red windows and truck-y look of the legs.
Prime135
Yeah he is, but going by the fact that one of the crash combiners is called dragbreak, and the fact that his combined mode has a blue car for it's left arm, I'd say the one being left out is either dead end or wildrider. (Going by the show's target tone, my money's on dead end)
