A new Amazon listing for Australia seems to be revealing a new Studio Series figure for Cogman of Transformers: The Last Knight.
The only information we have right now is the model number which is E4700.
Also listed is the previously discovered Studio Series ROTF Hightower and a new Generations Siege figure titled Flywheels.
You can check out the link at Amazon Australia.

Because if Studio Series is planning to give us a titan Class Devastator by giving us the individual Constructicons with built in combiner ports separately to both keep costs down and to keep their rule of giving us one Titan box set a year it would make sense to give us different types of Mixmaster,Longhaul and Rampage that actually include that feature.

Do you think Hightower and scrap metal could be oversized deluxes like rotf Megatron was an oversized voyager?
Toonstrack
I just liked his design, I still have the original but lost the cool purple missile thing. I also think they could improve the arms and legs sp he can stand easier
Dconworshipper
that's because back then they still cared about the movie toyline. (they do so again with studio series).
also while the rotf movie was meh,it was the best movie toyline by far.

Blame it on his overcomplicated design.
It’s a miracle he even got one back then. If he came out in AOE/TLK his chance of getting a toy, let alone one bigger than a Legion, would be even lower than characters like Mohawk and Onslaught.

Because Mixmaster's toy is a pile of confusion on a good day

Why just out of curiosity? Mixmaster and Longhaul are the two constructicons I thought they got right.
Toonstrack
Can we get a new Mixmaster tho
MrNiceGuy
I was going to say it's bizarre there's no Scrapper, but then again maybe Hasbro is thinking that Scrapmetal looks enough like him they don't need to make one. Maybe.
An overload figure would make more sense than hightower, though.
HeroicC300
Just had a realization for Scrapmetal; he's going to be made because he's the Volvo excavator and that means he can be reused as Trench and thus we get more characters. Also, I feel like Cogman is a HUGE 'wait and see' thing because I want Warden pinned and questioned about it before coming to any conclusions
neevnav
Hopefully Cogman is the TLK version but with paint on the exterior.

Shower thought type thing here, but, we know SS is beholden to the same constraints of mold reuse like all other TF lines, and we've seen it used for both new characters like KSI Sentry/Shadow Raider, and retools for alternate movie appearances like Screamer/Ratchet/Prime.
Historically Hightower was first an Autobot, later used for any crane that needed a name when Hook wasn't available, so I'm wondering if Scrapmetal is a Decepticon excavator like he was in ROTF, and that Hightower is a renamed Autobot Trench from TLK since he was also an excavator (just by CAT instead of Volvo) and shared the same robot mode model, plus Hightower is already a name Hasbro has. Hasbro can get two on screen characters from one mold this way, even though it isn't the Hightower everyone is speculating about.
I'd still prefer ROTF Hightower's ridiculous bot mode get a toy of its own, but I guess I'm gonna temper my expectations now just in caseeee lol.

TBH I'd expect a SS Cogman to be the TLK mold with maybe minor retooling, but most of the budget spent on a better paint deco. Washes on all the detailed clockwork greebly parts, etc.
It's a really nice mold for what it is, and folks should have their chance to get one. (I got lucky when I was in Tokyo and paid… $25 USD for him?)
Dconworshipper
that's why studio series is so great to begin with.
finally we are getting new molds for characters that never got a toy and upgraded versions of characters we got before.
plus it's not that this line won't have repaints,just look at the wave with those KSI drones,those are all repaints.
so nothing seems weird about this to me at all.
Lazerwave
I just want to see this myself. Because I'm thinking seems unusual that there may be so many new molds. That's not usually Hasbro.

No Hightower didnt do anything but combine with the others but its probably not why hes getting a figure almost 10 years later.
SS Devastator isnt impossible just unlikely the previously released Long haul, Mixmaster, and Rampage were all good figures at the time and dont necessarily need a new version.
Studio series is a chance for characters that never got released to finally get a figure while at the same time update others that need it so a character doing something in movie isnt really a factor.
Hightower, Scrapmetal, scavenger and overload never got a figure same for ksi drones and stinger and others
So unless they redo the 3 constructicons from rotf in studio series plus the other 4 and they combine this time I think Devastator isnt likely releasing these 2 or 3 is just the chance to complete a display with most of them.

Why Hightower of all bots? I get doing the Lockdown and Stinger repaints as generic KSI drones that we actually saw do stuff, but did we ever see Hightower do… anything?
Unless this is a prelude for a SS Devastator.
King Glurch
Please don't do that either Hasbro.

Was hoping it be the Japanese exclusive Legendary Optimus Prime
