In a similar vein to her fellow female Autobots that was in the episode, she uses the Moonracer mold. Unlike Chromia, she is a direct redeco of Moonracer, with a new head. She even retains her Prime Armor/hand, meaning she can be an arm or leg! She also comes with a Battle Master, Dazlestrike! They are a redeco of Battle Master Lionizer (it's actually the same, but with blue eyes, and green on the blade). Buuuuut, they come with a new "Fire Blast" effect piece, which is literally fire, in a slashing motion!
We have no information on price, date, or venue of release, past this one image. But, thoughts on this figure? Tell us in the Energon Pubs below!

Ugh, so maybe I don't need to find Groove now. Though what happens if they announce a 4th gal? Dammit Hasbro!

As for the combiners, if there's one more fembot limb made (Lancer), then Inferno can use Wreck-Gar, Jazz, Ricochet, and Red Swoop to complete his combiner.

Ladies and gentlemen, we may have two full combiners on our hands!

This also means that I can complete my Elita Inf1nite and keep ricochet as a standalone figure.

Nuh uh. Dreadwind, Blackwing, Golden Lagoon Starscream (repurposed as Sunstorm) and whichever of the two Hasbro Blast Offs (jet or shuttle) one doesn't have attached to Bruticus.Ultra Markus wrote:Decepticon Stryker wrote:Sabrblade wrote:"Dazlestrike". One Z.

oh come on now we cant count those for one the golden lagoon starscream is an exclusive and not really a good sunstorm i suppose the CW blastoff but would need to make him not look like blastoff
there needs to be something other than those two like other seekers or other decepticons
Posted by DecepticonFinishline on December 13th, 2018 @ 6:04pm CST
The NOT-STUPID thing to do would release Chromia like this as a combiner and make Lancer a battlemaster. That turns into a lance.
BUT. Lancer HAS TO happen now, right?
RIGHT?!

He's right. All of these are exclusives, so if you think about it, you have to spend a little extra to complete the many combiners that are half finished.
I bet o. supreme is gonna be happy though. Now he has 2 combiners with 3 limbs, only missing a 4th each

Agreed, especially since it seems to be agreed upon that it's not even that great of a mold to begin with.
Posted by ZeldaTheSwordsman on December 13th, 2018 @ 6:28pm CST
Greenlight at least was never seen transforming, but Moonracer's bod probably isn't a full match for hers.
I too have plans on a proper truck Firestar.
I wish they'd made Dazzlestrike orange, as a way of giving us a corrected Lionizer.
Posted by metalogan on December 13th, 2018 @ 6:38pm CST
Someone pointed out Lionizer should have been another color-I would have to agree.. or the blade translucent even.
But still going to buy. I am glad this character finally gets a suitable figure.

Takara Grand Galvatron has you covered there. Or you could do what I did for my Grand Scourge and use Off-road, jet blastoff, potp blastoff and Hasbro vortex. But I guess that only works if you have Takara Bruticus and wild rider.

Yep!
Probably in a exclusive box set with 4 other crappy figures that nobody asked for for 100 bucks...
I mean Has-con is coming next year.

Good eye! The silhouette is still roughly the same, which may work to her disadvantage. But hey, one more limb for Elita-Infin1te. Now I have to get PotP Elita-1, I've waited long enough.
As for her release date, I'd look at the numbered Studio Series exclusives first and see how they follow the order, if they actually do.

That's good!

I was going to use Ricochet as a leg of Elita for package art accuracy and Red Swoop as a limb for Red Defensor , but since Greenlight is coming, I guess I'll replace Jazz with her so Elita can have a little flaming dagger, as for starscream, I'll try to customize a second Dreadwing duo in their Japanese deco

Pretty simple detail with seemingly no battle damage. Not to mention she's a combiner limb in a line that's not trying to have any uncharacteristic features. Which makes me wonder... Why is she being released in WfC Siege? She clearly fits Generations Selects much better, being another repaint of a more exclusive character that even comes with an exclusive battlemaster. Not even Ricochet gets that special treatment, and he's the one that was originally a targetmaster.
Not to say that she doesn't look good or that I'm not greatful for another Fem-Limb, but still, it's more baffeling than it is exciting. Oh who am I kidding, I'm excited.

My guess is that Generations Selects will have a more limited release venue, online-only from specialty retailers... which isn't for everyone. By putting her in the Siege line, she becomes more available and could show up at Target and Walmart.

The SS exclusives generally release in order like all of the rest of the line: Thundercracker showed up pretty much with the rest of Wave 1, meaning 1-9 released all at once, the Bees have been showing up in order, and Drift is still just a preorder. Since no one has disagreed with my observation that Greenlight's packaging seems to say WFC-S15, that means that Greenlight should become available either when all of Wave 1 properly hits retail as opposed to the current sporadic findings, or in-between Waves 1 and 2.

Somewhere around the Wave1/Wave 2 "exchange" shall we say is a safe guess, WFC-14 Decepticon Shockwave is where the Wave 1 line-up ends, and WFC-16 Pteraxadon is where Wave 2 begins. Hasbro seems to be following the TakaraTomy method of assigning ID's per wave, assigning them from smaller to larger Classes.

Anything other than the exact same mold with different paint. I mean, I'll still buy her so I can have the whole group, and I'll definitely enjoy having her in my collection, but I'd still like to see something new. Happy to be able to buy Firestar, wish she was a truck. Maybe if I can scan her head and 3d print a new one at a bigger scale, then buy the Inferno torso and slap Firestars' embiggened head on there. I kinda like that idea. Then buy a second RID Strongarm figure and slap Chromia's head on it.
I digress.
Yes, I like her. And yes, I'll buy her. But I still reserve my right to whine about how much of a sucker I am.
I'm going to be doing a headswap and paint job for my cast-off Blast-Off (the jet one that was rendered surplus by a proper space shuttle)

Well, looking at the cartoon model she has a similar transformation scheme to Kup's original toy, except her arms don't tuck away. TR Kup's legs work a bit differently but you might be able to adapt him (especially since, with the arms remaining out, there would be room to fit a backpack). If you don't mind taking some liberties with the altmode and such, PotP Inferno could work. He has two tires on each lower leg, after all.

Re green light she looks the part, and it feels strange to see her packaged that way in the siege imprint... oh well, I'm sure quite a few peeps want her.
