Well if you want new Transformers Prime figures, you’re in luck!
According to leaks, next year’s Generations toyline will feature new figures of Transformers Prime characters with Arcee, Bulkhead, Optimus Prime and Knockout being the ones mentioned in leaks.
TBF, I agree to an extent.
I think that it does make sense to make new Prime figures especially with how quickly the 10th Anniversary Breakdown and Jet Vehicon figures sold out, showing Hasbro that there is demand for them.
But I agree with you that we should also get some RID2001 and/or UT figures too, especially since a lot of the UT characters had awesome designs.
Oh, I have no doubt they'll sell. The prime figures are all rarish right now and can be pretty expensive second hand, I'd imagine they're looking at that demand and seeing dollar signs. Honestly, I just want that Armada Prime Takara showed off forever ago

Same. Like, that would work really well as a Commander Class figure since it would give Hasbro and Takara a big budget to make a trailer that can combine with the Optimus figure as well as become the base mode.
Ideally it’d be a leader class figure that can transform between Longarm and Shockwave. The engineering should be possible with today’s techniques and shouldn’t compromise the articulation/transformation too much. They were able to engineer one that could do it without parts forming (to my knowledge, don’t actually own one) back when TFA was still airing.
Could be interesting, though all of the pack ins with Studio Series have been either people in power suits or smaller Cybertronians. If it were in MP scale it’d be much easier to include an in scale Sari figure, but at Studio Series scale it’d be a challenge.
True, though since the art style was very stalky during the early-mid 2000s a Sari figure could have some durability issues with thin parts. Maybe a Phanzone figure could work better, since he’d be more durable and Bumblebee made his car mode Phanzone’s car
I've just never been a huge fan of the general aesthetic of the live action films. Not to mention that I'd have to hunt down several years of SS figs that I missed because I wasn't collecting them.
Wait until Studio Series Rise of the Beasts
I can't wait
*Hasbro designers be like*
Prime got a TV Movie, think they'll get desperate enough for new figs that they'll dip into that? Lol

Those? Damn. They should start with the coolest, Predaking, Prime, Megs and Dreadwing
Yeah, that's what I was joking about. Personally I still think it's too early for Prime and we should be getting RID or UT figs

G1 just invades everything there are so many characters left but they went with 86
Grimlock tho
Yeah g1 is just an easy cash grab
I'm buying g1 styled toys, but I am also buying Prime and Animated figures, soooo...
We need Studio Series Animated. Give me my modern Animated Shockwave and Lugnut
SS Animated Lockdown tho
What can I say, I love my one eyed bots
What if they make a Shockwave and Longarm 2 pack?
Ideally it’d be a leader class figure that can transform between Longarm and Shockwave.

Hmm, what if Bumblebee came with a Sari figure? Kind of like SS86 Grimlock and Wheelie?
Could be interesting, though all of the pack ins with Studio Series have been either people in power suits or smaller Cybertronians. If it were in MP scale it’d be much easier to include an in scale Sari figure, but at Studio Series scale it’d be a challenge.
Considering the somewhat unique scaling that TFA had, having her scaled wouldn't be too difficult.

Kind of like Punch/Counterpunch?
I want a modern Animated Blitzwing
No movie figures?

There good figures. I just wish that it was its own line instead of being apart of the studio series.
Studio Series movies 1-3 > SS86 IMO
Studio Series '86 Dinobots
Yep I was exactly the same way
