The Siege has ended, and the Earth has risen – it is almost time to enter Kingdom!
The third and concluding part of the War for Cybertron trilogy, Transformers Kingdom is coming to collectors in 2021. After months of rumours, we have our first Walmart listings complete with EAN product numbers for the new line which confirms what we already knew: that we are getting Beast Wars Classics for the 25th anniversary of Beast Wars in 2021. So far, we have listings for Deluxe class Cheetor and Blackarachnia, and Core class Rattrap. We currently don’t know for sure what Core class is – but given Rattrap’s inclusion in the size class, it is probably a smaller size class, perhaps on a par with the old Legends size clas.
Not only that, but – KERBLAMMO! – everyone’s favourite onomatopoeic tank minibot is getting a new toy. ZOWIE! Warpath is also coming to Kingdom, so there’s something for the non-Beast Wars fans too.
Tip of the hat and a big thanks goes to TFW2005 member JTPrime17 for unearthing these listings.

The lighting there makes his colors look really good!
Rewatching BW, I've noticed that Cheetor's blue tends to look a bit pale anyhow, just more metallic and a little bit more of a tint of purple in it than this, so I really don't think that the Kingdom colors are all that bad if it looks like this in person.

Yup all we need are Tarantulas, Terrorsaur, and Inferno to complete the season 1 crew. Tarantulas I can see him as a deluxe, Terrorsaur and Inferno I can see them both as voyager classes.

Ironically it's the only character from that show that I really liked. But, like Black Arachnia my plans are to integrate all Spider Women Fembots into my collection as Fate Weavers. Guess I'll just wait and see how BA turns out.
SPLIT LIP
Everything the character deserved.
IgnikaMarcus
Still waiting for them to make her out of SS Drift.
Super4Ever
Totally agree there. I loved the Prime line but that figure made absolutely no sense to me. I still have it but it seems like it was made by a completely different team.
YoungPrime
There would be more if Hasbro didn't screw up TF Prime's Arachnid….
I mean seriously, what the hell is this:

so far the chances of getting the rest of bw predacpons seems unlikely, hope at least we get tarantulas he was s key character in the series
Super4Ever
Nice group there for sure.
Sixwing
Excited for Warpath, seeing as I don't feel like trying to track down the Generations one

Show us your fate weavers…

They'll probably just partsform his wings into swords or whatever.
Trooper028
I'm still hoping that Wingfinger is just Terrorsaur as a Fossilizer. Sure he won't be show accurate being a skeleton… unless we pretend this is the result of falling in the lava. Lol.
EDIT: Another thing to consider is making Terrorsaur "show" accurate might still be kind of tricky with the wings. In the show they're attached to his arms and appear to shrink down. The best option I guess would be for them to be attached to the back and tuck in like the 97 Airazor's wings do. So while not attached to the arms they're about in the same position just on the back.
Alph
Yeah, the original BW Inferno and the 10th Anniversary Tarantulas are still good enough for the time being, but Terrorsaur needs an update desperately. His original mold is way off base, and only a rare Japanese variant had the correct colors.
Literally every official Blackarachnia figure so far (aside from the McDonalds ones, I guess) has been way too big to scale with the regular Beast Wars figures. I'm not sure how another big Blackarachnia figure would be more of a novelty than a small one, especially considering how she's supposed to be one of the smallest characters in the show.

The Armada character designs had a lot of potential. If they were updated to get rid of the awful gimmicks many of them like Cyclonus could really be great!
Laser_Optimus
I would love an update of Armada Cyclonus. Those designs were great but many of the figures just didn't do them justice. Armada as a whole could use some updates. Hopefully, we'll start getting more stuff besides G1. I grew up with G1 and I still want to see more G1 stuff, but it's time other continuities started getting more than just the odd bone tossed their direction.
Mizzinno
Man, I know its most likely G1 Cyclonus but man I really wish it could be my spinny boi.
