Via David Wallace on Twitter and Marcomadrysreviews on Facebook we have some images and information to let you go into speculation mode. We have a possible first look at the rumored Studio Series 86 Hot Rod & Kingdom Fossilizer.
As usual, take this with a grain of salt until we find an official confirmation. We have small and blurry images of what seems to be a G1 Hot Rod which was rumored to be released in the Studio Series line as part of a sub-line of Transformers 1986 characters. According to the information shared he will be a Voyager size figure.
Additionally, we have another image showing what a strange robot which transforms into a Velociraptor skeleton plus a pic that shows it combined with Kingdom Warpath as extra weaponry. Could this be part of the rumored Kingdom Fossilizers? They were supposed to be like Siege Weaponizers figures like Cog.
We don’t stop here. Some extra information was shared about an upcoming Studio Series 86 Deluxe G1 Jazz and Leader G1 Grimlock but with no images so far. To top it all, we have a new slightly better image of the rumored Titan Class G1 Ark we had seen before.
Stay tuned with TFW2005 for more updates! Now click on the bar to see the mirrored images on this mews post and the share your expectations on the 2005 Board!

Well dang. The gif isn't playing and I feel like a fool now.

I truly believe you are spot on!

Hey, good eye!
Now I hope it ends up happening!

Lol. I used to watch this over and over on VHS before I owned a G1 Hot Rod and imagine this was how the toy actually transformed. I was a bit disappointed when I finally did get a Hot Rod.

This doesn't mean they are in wave 11, does it?
TotalMackerel
If that's true the child in me will be extremely happy. I use to watch that sequence once a day on vhs!

This may have been discussed already, but my theory is that Studio Series is transitioning to become the next catch-all "Generations" line. WFC is now tied to a show that's airing currently / in the future, so there's less creative freedom in terms of what toys to make. On the other hand, Studio Series seems like the perfect playground for any TF era—as long as the designs are faithful to their source material and free of irrelevant gimmicks, that feels true to the spirit of "Studio Series" to me. I know some people enjoy having a line dedicated to the live action movies, but I'd prefer more variety personally (UT, Animated, Prime, etc).

Oh yeah… Forgot about him. Some random Junkions would help as well.

The Raptor one is in the core class.

Not really a big deal, but that fossilizer isn't a raptor, it seems to be a Tyrannosaurus. The skull's shape is distinctly T. rex, and the feet don't appear to have any claws on them (from the admittedly blurry image).

So i\'m wondering if the new studio series figs will be in scale with the WFC figures cause that would be great having a G1 Grimlock that scales well with ER Optimus Prime.

Yooo, the arms are backwards cuz they didn’t flip em aka screen accurate transformation?!!?!?

This is all well and good, but where is Jazz?

He's probably not going to be entirely G1 accurate/might have armor up pieces to reference energon Megatron/Galvatron to facilitate potential repaints

Payback from causing Prime's death I wager.

Wow. Nice.
