I want to see all the core class figures that Hasbro has skipped reveals of for some reason. There's already four of them from the leak list including Wheelie.
octobotimus
Yeah but SS wave 3’s leader class and core classes are still missing despite wave 3 being up for PO.
Seanprime
I think the figure we know about that I want to see the most next is the ss86 ironhide. Curious what that will end up being

XD yeah agreed. I just wanted a SG release confirmation.
Fenrys
We've gotten like 12 reveals this month alone, there can't be reveals all the time.
Starpilot949
May is almost ending, and no fan first Friday in sight.
*Sigh*

That Optimus ended up being sturdy AF. My son still has it intact.
octobotimus
Tbh those things probably aren't even that bad. Now authentics on the other hand…..

There's a line for you people, Cyberverse. Enjoy your soap bottles, let us enjoy quality.

Leave it to Kermit to say what should be the appropriate body size proportions and no amount of authority will chance his opinion.

Okay, this is epic

I hope for the day that will be.

I'm fine with him being the same height. If he's roughly Voyager Class when it's all said and done and they asked $30.00, I'd feel better paying it for him than I would Override. Her engineering just doesn't pass muster to be Voyager Class. Hot Rod? Yes. Her? No. Tarantulas? (If he fits the criteria) Yes. (Maybe.)
Rakzo
Yeah, odds are he's going to release much earlier.
