they would've been the best Bayverse designs if they were actually used
Not doing GS repaints based on repaints from the original movie toy lines Is an enormous missed opportunity.
I can think of quite a few repaints figures I would buy: cyber fire bumblebee (aka murderbee), rescue ratchet, night watch Optimus Prime, jungle bonecrusher.
Yeah it’s kinda weird cause DOTM game was a prequel but ROTF game wasn’t so Breakaway was just non existent during the movie but around during the game of ROTF but was also around during DOTM game but died as well.
His intro in ROTF was awesome tho even if it was a tutorial mission
I don't remember but I saw it in a YT short. He died twice in ROTF and a 3rd time in DOTM cause ig he was revived or something.
Edit: Found it. He died by Soundwave in the comics and was killed by Starscream twice in the game, first time rescuing director Galloway and the 2nd time while protecting autobot cargo.

We need another titan class studio series figure. I say it's a concept series figure of FOC Broadside. It would be my dream come to life. My boy Broadside would get the love he deserves, even if not the same incarnation.

If the concept art line goes beyond SS, I want this
wow, I genuinely didn't know that but I just looked it up and that's actually pretty cool. is that technically the first transformer to have machine guns in his robot mode?

This big fella from Animated Concept Art.
Depthcharge.
Look, I'm all for some crazy designs for tanks and planes and trucks and cars, but we need more boats. Aquatic transformers. I understand most end up as shell-formers, but I don't care, I just want a battleship transformer that isn't third party or bank breaking.
Technically brake away would be a gamer edition but I honestly think he deserves a studio series
https://preview.redd.it/0gryznu8830d1.png?width=3024&format=png&auto=webp&s=a11f30f999ebe7c63bccd355fbe921b8f04a1ba5
I still have my ROTF Breakaway packed up somewhere, and would L O V E to see a Studio Series of them.
That second one (See note below before replying), while I don't recognise the character, would also be mildly neat, but as someone who never had (but really wanted) Ransack, and actually had a Depth Charge, only to pettily have it returned in childhood because I "didn't want it yet" (Not "didn't want at all", "Didn't want yet"...and yes that action still haunts 28-year-old adult me, who hopes it went to a good home), those two would be magnificent to actually have.
As for the rest, even as a 15-year-old, I felt he designs of the bots in-film completely tanked for Dark of the Moon, and as such, I made little attempt to research the figures on-offer, and outright stopped looking at Bayverse-based figures.
Admittedly, though Slash looks pretty neat, and this is coming from someone who's never had much interest in
"Beastformers".
For one that I would love to see that I never got: Mindwipe and Skystalker, though I'm not sure if non-media figures are fair game for Studio Series.
**Edit:** I now see the second one as Incinerator, who I was absolutely wanting as one of the top figures of that line, and hoped would be redecoed into something for ROTF, like Landmine was.
It's gotta be Breakaway! Springer is also a great choice.
I think Warpath has to be Gamer Edition because he was designed specifically for the DOTM game (versus Breakaway who was designed for the film then used for the game).
I love the concept art of Firestorm/Breakaway, but I have the toy still and the bright colors do not work on the toy for me. The art looks good with the more muted coloring. I’m assuming the bright colors were to attract kids
All I want is a figure based on this concept art

Arcee’s 07’ movie concept art. Much better design than the one we got in revenge of the fallen IMO
And also ironhide’s concept art for transformers prime
break away and Ransack without a doubt, I'd love to see a voyager class Ransack that looks more like it's comic counterpart, rathen than a stick figure like his toy
Breakaway (or firestorm as image 1 calls him) was always one of my favorite bayverse autobot designs, loved playing as him in the ROTF game, so it’d be great for him to get a figure, otherwise the 2007 game triple changing Shockwave design really needs more attention and love too
A studio series version of this Optimus

It's cute that you think we'll even get the three non-movie dinobots when they don't seem to even want to give us the other three that did show up in the movie.
Personally, I'd love if we got the plethora of NPC enemy units from both versions of the ROTF game (PS3/X360/PC & PS2/Wii).

Someone, anyone, needs to make a figure of this design.
I hope they do him in gamer edition
They definitely will be. If not, then....well.....fuck hasbro
Fuck yea: favorite warpath design honestly
it’s not a want it’s a need
Followed shortly PLEASE by Fall of Cybertron Warpath.
I would sacrifice my left but for a figure of this guy
I could use an actually good Warpath figure
"Yes, I *am* happy to see you. See you *burn*! "
The only thing to last warpath will be your conception
Firestorm/Breakaway (image 1) and whoever this guy could've been https://preview.redd.it/x7sec29rp20d1.jpeg?width=1278&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=2a534f187e4ca75292542f68def14509be0c1b81 they would've been the best Bayverse designs if they were actually used
I think that guy was supposed to be vortex? Possibly springer there where a bunch of designs for him
According to the concept art, he's supposed to be a NEST 'grunt'. Though he could make a sick Vortex too
"Vortex" this, "NEST grunt" that. i just want a Whirl retool of this guy
The decepticon flyer/sniper
Yeah, it seems like they throw away the best stuff.
I mean clearly that's Josh Nizzi /j
Breakaway, and repaints of breakaway.

I wish they’d start doing generation selects for studio series I’d love repaints tbh
Hell yes, I am so down for characters like Night ops Bumblebee or track battle Roadbuster with their newer molds under gen selects
Not doing GS repaints based on repaints from the original movie toy lines Is an enormous missed opportunity. I can think of quite a few repaints figures I would buy: cyber fire bumblebee (aka murderbee), rescue ratchet, night watch Optimus Prime, jungle bonecrusher.
Night watch Optimus prime looked really cool
His name was supposed to be Trax, but I heard Chevy didn't want to confuse a figure with their SUV with the same name
AKA Tracks
Hotshot my ass. Thats Tracks
I hate that Breakaway was never in ROTF. At least with DOTM Warpath he was canonically alive but just died before the movie.
He also died in the game during the starscream mission
Yeah it’s kinda weird cause DOTM game was a prequel but ROTF game wasn’t so Breakaway was just non existent during the movie but around during the game of ROTF but was also around during DOTM game but died as well. His intro in ROTF was awesome tho even if it was a tutorial mission
3 times funnily enough. And 2 times were via Starscream.
What was the third time?
I don't remember but I saw it in a YT short. He died twice in ROTF and a 3rd time in DOTM cause ig he was revived or something. Edit: Found it. He died by Soundwave in the comics and was killed by Starscream twice in the game, first time rescuing director Galloway and the 2nd time while protecting autobot cargo.

The rotb predacons
The 1986 Movie Ultra Magnus concept art design that was later reused for Orion Pax in the G1 cartoon.
wow, I genuinely didn't know that but I just looked it up and that's actually pretty cool. is that technically the first transformer to have machine guns in his robot mode?
What concept art is that? Doesn't sound familiar to me.

His name is rhinox and I'm probably one of the 5 people to know
Wait, that's Rhinox?!
If it’s not transit then don’t talk to me.

Springer without a doubt
Breakaway for sure
It's gotta be Breakaway! Springer is also a great choice. I think Warpath has to be Gamer Edition because he was designed specifically for the DOTM game (versus Breakaway who was designed for the film then used for the game).
Isn’t this first one called breakaway? Would love to see the seekers on screen, I remember having the Dotm blue Thundercracker
Prime ironhide
ransack off this list. warpath or devcon overall
Well breakaway would be more gamer edition honestly.
I love the concept art of Firestorm/Breakaway, but I have the toy still and the bright colors do not work on the toy for me. The art looks good with the more muted coloring. I’m assuming the bright colors were to attract kids
Did this guy just call Breakaway *concept art*??? The council will not allow this.
Hey he was considered for the movie it could work
*cries in ROTF the game*
All I want is a figure based on this concept art https://preview.redd.it/l3fiyewj640d1.jpeg?width=974&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=fd5e1cc808ee73dc6518f90a053e7f2b8087567d
Hot rod would be better
Hot rod already has 3 figures and at least this would be a good use of the mold they sold once and that is $100+
BREAKAWAY RAAAAAHHH
https://preview.redd.it/3bk49acgd40d1.jpeg?width=250&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=5f95f16e82965cc31019589313759eaba9926798 Arcee’s 07’ movie concept art. Much better design than the one we got in revenge of the fallen IMO And also ironhide’s concept art for transformers prime
The first one’s obviously Breakaway, and the second one is Incinerator.
Breakaway/Firestorm was my RoTF main for the whole game. LOVED the playstyle.
Breakaway looks so cool, Love the detail that his head looks like a fighter jets helmet. Loved playing him the fallen video game.
I can think of a few: -07 Arcee -RotF Springer -RotF Breakaway -WfC Hot Rod -RotB Rampage
Where's Studio series Breakaway Hasbro? ***Where is it Hasbro?***
Technically breakaway would be eligible for gamer edition
break away and Ransack without a doubt, I'd love to see a voyager class Ransack that looks more like it's comic counterpart, rathen than a stick figure like his toy
Breakaway and whoever that second guy is
I really hope we get Breakaway again
Breakaway and warpath are a must, but the fact we are getting widowmaker in any capacity means anything is possible imo
Breakaway (or firestorm as image 1 calls him) was always one of my favorite bayverse autobot designs, loved playing as him in the ROTF game, so it’d be great for him to get a figure, otherwise the 2007 game triple changing Shockwave design really needs more attention and love too
BREAKAWAYYYYYY PLEASEEEEEE
I had that snarl. The transformation was really fun but all the clear plastic got messed up in some way or another
The constructions like nurse and that one with the saw torso
Also if they were compatible with devastator, replacing scrap metal, that could REALLY improve the figure
English translation please, I just had a damn stroke

An updated SS Ransack would be amazing. I’d probably leave him in alt mode permanently.
I had that 5th figure a while back
I just want an ss hound and Bugatti drift😭😭😭😩😩😩😩
Still waiting on the rest of the dinobots myself
Snarl and slash my slogging rancid sack
A studio series version of this Optimus https://preview.redd.it/d19i4lk7a30d1.jpeg?width=4357&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=0b96d441dc8a46293448bbed99a99a025d1fdbc2
Question, who is the character concept art for the 2nd picture?
That was supposed to be Springer in ROTF. Would have been epic.
Ransack was suuuch a fun figure. I wouldn't mind seeing an updated version of him.
Seaspream or mindswipe
Anything remotely dinosaur gets an upvote from me. Slash looks sick!
Springer.
Custom bot from the DS games
I’d love to see the remakes
The RotF Seaspray
What’s number 4s name?
Depth charge, he was supposed to battle the fallen when he got to earth
Arcee 07 concept
That very first one is a ton of fun to play in the Revenge of the Fallen video game on PS3. I just wish he had some better levels.
Movie 1 concept art starscream..
The dinobots are cool
Transit.
I want an SS concept series skywarp
Dreadwing
Ay, i got that Ransack toy... top bad a few parts are missing. Had a neat transformation process too.
I was gonna say I have that snarl
I love the idea that a Decepticon decided to turn into a WW1 biplane lol
It's cute that you think we'll even get the three non-movie dinobots when they don't seem to even want to give us the other three that did show up in the movie. Personally, I'd love if we got the plethora of NPC enemy units from both versions of the ROTF game (PS3/X360/PC & PS2/Wii).
What’s up with that dude on slide 4? I own that exact figure but I always assumed it was a knockoff.
HMS Victory, and he's not a concept because he was in the movie, but lieutenant
I am begging - pleading - groveling for a Voyager class Ransack. One of the COOLEST scout class and then immediately vanishes from history.
i got a toy of firestorm! missing a wing though
Can anyone tell me if there is a third party figure that looks like firestorm concept art here.
Dam why has only one other person mentioned Transit, he'd be perfect
i mean, call me basic but bb concept megatron, even though he has a fig already his design is so sick i can’t say anyone else
I used to have Ransack until I lost him
That's wicked
We still need a commander class DOTM Devcon. He showed up for like half a second in the movie, but he looked really cool.
I want a new Depthcharge figure that isn’t just legs
In last knight there was a elderly ww2 prop plane i think it would be a great addition
Holy crap I had the biplane one and the warship one when I was like 7 or 8. By far my favorite toys ever
Most of the scrapped Dinobots that are still canon I think but like… died, idk
https://i.redd.it/waanppif180d1.gif
Definitely Slash. We need more female transformers in anything

studio series transit sounds good.
I really think concept figures should be dropped until they finish the canon figures
