Unfortunately. The HA Basics look so fun.
They really are! The crazy "offscreen character" toys they used to do for the movies were by far the best parts of those toylines.
I had no need for another Bumblebee, but I absolutely wanted a snowmobile/robot/chainsaw triple changer.
RotB seems to be returning to this idea somewhat with all the crazy animal Battlemasters and armor type toys.
I get more and more sad that Shrapnel pre-orders are all still sold out.
They're still available at TFSource:
The preorder date says June 2023 though. Not sure if that's just a guesstimate or a placeholder.

Woot! Thanks!
Until now I didn't realise that we need a Junkion Helicopter but as a weaponizer type bot
They hinted at an upcoming Junkion weaponizer flier of some type on the livestream, so I'm hoping we do get one. Somehow a helicopter or gyrocopter just seems the most on-brand for Junkions.
If that’s happening. It’s not until next year I would imagine.
Straxus seems like an obvious retool from Galvatron, so I'd be a little surprised if it didn't happen.
The rumoured Straxus was a jet though I thought?
(Which was hopefully wrong, as you say a Galvatron retool like New Age did with theirs would be wayyy better.)
Ah, I must have missed or forgotten that part of the rumor. Given how media-accurate this design team has tried to be, I would be surprised by anything other than his comic flying cannon alt mode, but I've been surprised plenty of times before.
Either way, as much as I love the old Darkmount toy, I would welcome a larger Straxus.
If you give a Zac a large Straxus he's going to ask for a new Scrounge with a special arm like no other. And if you make him a new Scrounge, a rolling disk of tragedy, he's going to want a Helex/Polyhex Titan that turns into the Smelting Pool to melt that Scrounge away. And if you make Zac a Smelting Pool Titan he is never going to shut up until you make a Spanner / Space Bridge Titan as its Autobot counterpart...
-ZacWilliam, yeah... that may be my favorite Marvel TF story...

Sir, I am intrigued by your ideas and would like to subscribe to your newsletter.
A Spanner Titan ..cool but tragic.
I never liked the literal interpretation of "space bridge"
The cool purple tower/ring from the cartoon is still iconic to me.

I prefer the Stargate looking one from TF Prime.
That is very similar to the G1 cartoon verison, thou with that, its always presented as something MUCH bigger and is on its side, looking kind of a similar to a Transporter from Star Trek, but raised up, while the G1 Marvel comics, its an actual bridge, thou it was also a Transformer, who was an Autobot and got turned into a Space bridge by the cons, yet they also lost their free will!
I finally got that Pre-ordered!
