It'd be cool to see Blackarachnia and Airazor released side by side.

True, he isn't that popular outside G1, but MP's are geared towards G1 enthusiasts, so no reason to not give it a go.

Our Canadian dollar continuing to DROP and our toys being more expensive!!!

Local Sellers / TRU / WM / Target

Anyone who purchases in USD and needs to convert into CAD will need to cover the FX increase. Heck a rate of 1.15 to 1.18 that's a lot of margin lost

But seriously, Combiners, Combiners, Combiners.

More toys based on the IDW comics.

[Echotransformer]

Even easier Transformations. New "0-step" changers!

New licences and crossovers...last year it was Hex bugs, maybe this year it will be Shopkins and Transformers (together at last)

The new "kinder, gentler movie" details will evolve

All Transformers will continue to use less plastic, get even lighter, and have even more ribbing/stiffening to compensate

Packaging will get tighter to save costs

One of the other 80's franchises will make a big return (i.e. Mask, Starcom, etc.)

3rd parties will once again make multiples of the same character...so we'll probably see competing versions of Abominus, Superion, CHUG Soundwave/Shockwave, etc.

And I 100% guarantee my Wallet will be empty...

MP-wise I say Takara's gonna milk the MP-10 and MP-11 molds some more with new Seeker repaints and perhaps one more NA reissue of TRU MP OP. Hopefully they do a Diaclone Powered Convoy repaint of MP-22 as well. I also hope the supposed "Year Of The Decepticon" means MP Megatron 2.0.

[down_shift]

Hotspot and the Protectobots. Hotspot will look like Sentinel in vehicle mode.

Onslaught and the Combaticons. Onslaught will be a retool of Hotspot.

Scattershot and the Technobots. Heavy retool from Silverbolt.

Predaking. All new molds.

No Abominus or Piranhacon.

Cyclonus remold from Silverbolt .

Zeta Prime remold from Blackjack.

Ya know... just a hunch

[Rev]

Mp Galvatron, Ironhide and Ratchet

[Wheeltron]

Following up my previous "Moar Beast Wars" prediction, the unlikely left field "prediction" (I would never expect it) would be a Combiner Wars Magnaboss release.

That would be wild. No one would see that coming, lol.
