I think it'll be closer to the 5-pack Power Core Combiners. Maybe robot modes for the limbs but I'm not expecting anything more than Micromaster levels of transformation.

Yeah, the Voyager price point is a big factor here. That's what drew me to the Combiner Force comparison.

I would be happy with a new Power Core Combiner. Just get rid of the springs and use real plastic this time.
PCC was a great, but often forgotten little line. Had a couple of rougher figures (looking at you, Double Clutch), but a lot of those toys were just absolutely amazing designs.
Way I see it, the PCC 5-packs were sold at voyager price and had springloaded gimmicks. It probably shouldn’t be too difficult to do the same nowadays since spring gimmicks are largely phased out based on cost, if we extrapolate designer comments on ratchet joints.
They really only have to design arm modes. All leg modes have to do is end up the same relative height/length
PCC was great when it hit its stride towards the end of the line. The excavator, tank, boat(!) and Grimstone were GOATed

I knocked some points off Smolder because his torso mode is so bad. It’s the CW Motormaster of the line: stellar robot and vehicle but terrible combiner mode.
And it's the only mold that Takara did not release in United EX.
You know what, I take that back. CW Menasor at least has a new super mode chest and crotch. Smolder doesn’t even bother. Bro does this and slaps drones on the ends of his limbs
