Do you think the up-coming video game will have a high successful toy line?

what are your thoughts on this?

personally i think the toy line would most likely do very well and the video game to but i really wouldn't buy that many of the figures, maybe just get prime and megatron and thats it.

WFC sets the canon for the next 3-4 years according to Hasbro so I think the toy line will do pretty well. We may have just found out about it but Hasbro has had this in their pocket for probably just over a year or so now.

Well some of the toys just leaked........ with me, if the fiction is AWESOME, the toys can be whatever they want.

Some? Any other you're thinking of other then the new RPM that looks kinda like Soundwave or the Deluxe looking Prime? Just curious.

There is the chance only a couple toys get made, and their put in the Universe series.

Going off that Soundwave pictured there, my theory is WFC is the prequel to the new cartoon.

And that we'll see some WFC Cybertronian modes sprinkled in as a result.

I wouldn't mind if it the War For Cybertron designs ended up being the next toy line. The robot mode designs looks sexy.

wouldn't mind seeing these toys either, but isn't there another series lined up, something like power core combiners?

I think PCCs tie into the new line. Hasbro has stated that this is the starting point for the next mainline. Classics 3 will run along side it.

I want to see new ideas, not just G1 v3.0. We need stuff like the Buttmasters, Elbowmasters, Shouldermasters, Anklemasters, etc.

Hasbro loves you so much, they made one during Armada. His name is Hotshot.

I thought he was a Spinalcordmaster? Or Coccyxmaster?

Too bad Susan Sommers already beat you to Thigh Master and here's one of the bots in that line. Not really Thighs but it sounds better than Calf Master.

Calfmaster sounds the torso in an all cow combiner. Or the picture of the cow turning into a meat robot that's out there on the interwebs.

I thought you might have thought that. To me he looks like he might crop up in the new Classics line.

Well, the leaked picture of the new Prime has certainly sparked my interest. I really like the looks of it! :D I am really looking forward to some more pictures and really holding out that a WFC Starscream gets made!!! :)

I'm guessing that pic is of a pack-in for the game. It looks pretty small, about scout or activator sized. That doesn't mean we won't see much bigger figures released.

Since this game is setting up the fiction for the next few years, I can't see them not making toys of at least the main characters.

I really hope there is a collectors version of the game. I'm a sucker for cool packins. (staring at MW2 night vision goggles)

Agreed! It would only make sense!

Than again, this is Hasbro we're talking about here. :p

More than likely, if that figure is only a pack in for the game, it'll eventually be released as a scout or legends class figure with a different colour scheme or battle damage or something in the main line.

There are very few Primes that did not get multiple releases per sculpt. Though it has happened, like that movie cake topper figure which I want for some reason.
