Your predictions for 2015

[Undrave]

The news and rumor section is abuzz with talks of Devastator and G1 reissues, and we're all looking forward to Toy Fair in February.

I thought that, since it's still early in the year, we could indulge in pure speculations and guess at what will be announced this year for Transformers.

Here is a few of my guesses:

Legend and Cyberverse
-Legend Kickback to finish off the Insecticons
-Legend Beachcomber and Seaspray.
-Pathfinder repaint of Legend Cosmos and a Decepticon Stormcloud one for Powerglide.
-New playset for the RID Cyberverse line.

Deluxes:
-Combiner Wars Protectobots revealed. Mostly repaints, but with a new member to replace Groove with a mold that opens the door to a different combiner team.
-New IDW Rodimus.
-Arcee repainted as Paradron Medic and given a proper name.
-Nautica announced. Possibly a heavy retool of Arcee.

Voyager and others
-Combiner Wars Hot Spot gets retooled as a voyager Heatwave
-New Galvatron revealed, possibly as a leader class toy.
-leader Magnus revealed along with a Thunderclash retool.
-Decepticon repaint for Brainstorm invented.
-Prowl retool of the Roadbuster mold, disappointingly cannot be used in Devastator.
-Takara reveals Ironhide and Ratchet MP.

Here ya go!

Masterpiece

- Megatron
- Cliffjumper
- Jazz
- Tracks
- Sunstreaker
- Mirage

...ok a lot of that list is probably just wishful thinking.

[QuadESL63]

Masterpiece:

TakaraTomy Victory Leo (to go with Star Saber. It will be stupid for them not to do it)
TakaraTomy "Cone Heads" (wishful thinking but I hope they will at least make one out of three this year, and make it Thrust)
TakaraTomy Reflector
TakaraTomy Galvatron
TakaraTomy Decepticon cassettes: Overkill, Slugfest, Squawkbox
Hasbro Ultra Magnus
Hasbro Autobots cars: Sideswipe, Bumblebee, Wheeljack, Smokescreen, & Red Alert

Combiner Wars + "Legend"/CHUG:

Hasbro/TakaraTomy Protectobots
TakaraTomy Beast War Megatron
TakaraTomy/Hasbro Optimus Primal
Hasbro Titan G2 Devastator (as an exclusive for SDCC?)

Combiner Wars:

Legends Rodimus remolded out of Legends Blackjack to go with Team Optimus, and form the chest shield in combiner mode.

Cliffjumper and Tracks would be retools of existing molds so it's not unlikely.

More Beast Wars Generations released in late 2015, ramping up to the anniversary.

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

As someone who took a pass on Beast Wars back in the day only to appreciate it later on, I'd be on board for this.

MP Tracks will have to be an officially licensed Chevrolet Corvette C4. GM would be happy to licence the brands but Tracks isn't that popular outside G1.

MP CJ...Not sure Takara wants to do a red MP-21 since he was not red VW Beetle in the G1 cartoon.

MP Jazz...all depends on Porsche. While Volkswagen AG owns Porsche, Porsche is running its own business. Porsche can still say no even though Takara was able to get licence from VW for MP-21.

MP Mirage...Who owns Ligier JS11?

And I'll keep dreaming about MP Blitzwing and Astrontrain...

I hadn't even thought of more Beast Wars! That would be really cool! I'd also love to see a few more RiD (Car robot) homages and some other Unicron Trilogy ones.

It's true that CJ wasn't a VW Beetle but they could just keep the same engineering and just reshell him.

my guess is Masterpiece 2-pack Ironhide and Ratchet since it is the same mold with minor retools so it is very possible but either way we should be getting Ironhide
