Hey guys! I’ve seen listings online on a voyager Megatron, should we add him to the list? YourBestPal (talk) 17:45, 6 September 2018 (EDT)

It's one of the many listings actually. However, we should wait until either the listing (which should be an official affiliate of Hasbro) has pictures or Hasbro officially announces it. --notirishman (talk) 17:58, 6 September 2018 (EDT)

Wave 2 Deluxes

[edit]

...there can't be six in wave 2, can there? Are all these confirmed, or are we just guessing on a few? --ItsWalky (talk) 17:25, 31 October 2018 (EDT)

Ironhide, Chromia, Prowl and Six-Gun are all confirmed wave 2. I think Brunt and Refraktor must've been guessed, since I don't think they did a slideshow with wave numbers at NYCC? Jalaguy (talk) 19:24, 31 October 2018 (EDT)
I was trying to find presentation slides of them but couldn't. --ItsWalky (talk) 21:23, 31 October 2018 (EDT)

Siege Scale

[edit]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cbFPQ4nrFiU&t=65

In the video above, at that particular timestamp, John Warden explains that each size class(Deluxe, Voyager and Leader are mentioned specifically) are in scale with each other. This creates a unified scale in Siege. To calculate what that scale is, I used a post citing specific heights(in cm) for some of the first wave of Takara's Siege line.

http://www.tfw2005.com/boards/threads/war-for-cybertron-2019-speculation-thread.1142465/page-268#post-16234019

Then, I used the following page to compare their sizes to.

https://tfwiki.net/wiki/Official_sizes_and_heights

And calculated Siege's scale in at about 1:36-1:38.

Greenlight and Dazzlestrike?

[edit]

I've noticed mentions of the two pack on several other pages, but nothing here. Is there just not a good way to add the pair to the page at the time being? --LOMI (talk) 15:26, 23 December 2018 (EST)

Future waves removed

[edit]

The following show up in Walmart computer systems, but apparently are not allowed on the page here. Caliburst, Smashdown Off road Patrol, Racecar Patrol, Voyager Thundercracker, Springer Leader Optimus

Leaked figures such as Ratchet (leaked from a Walgreens computer), Skywarp and the Firestormers Pack are not allow on this page.

Figure numbering

[edit]

Is it common for there to be missing numbers among figures like what seems to be happening with Siege? What I mean by this is that Jetfire is WFC-S28, but Soundwave is WFC-S25, with no S26 and S27 between them. Is that an indication of a planned then removed figure, numbering however they felt like, or something else? Or does it mean nothing? --LOMI (talk) 20:17, 4 March 2019 (EST)

The "missing" ID numbers are listed on the Siege website, and likely belong to exclusives that Hasbro hasn't announced yet. Jalaguy (talk) 06:41, 5 March 2019 (EST)
Ah, I hadn't considered that. Thank you! --LOMI (talk) 18:46, 5 March 2019 (EST)

35th Anniversary Figures & Micromaster 10-Pack

[edit]

Shouldn't the 35th anniversary figures be added here? They're numbered with the main Siege numbering. Shouldn't we also add the individual names and WFC-S numbers of the figures in that set? --Digital Collector (talk) 00:00, 19 July 2019 (EDT)

Yep. Give it some time, or do it yourself. Names are here: https://www.seibertron.com/transformers/news/hasbro-officially-reveals-the-siege-target-exclusives-at-sdcc2019-with-micromaster-10-pack-names/43622/ --notirishman (talk) 02:14, 19 July 2019 (EDT)

On the note of the Micromaster pack, every single Micromaster is a previously established character... except Ricon? Seems like there's a reference hidden here somewhere but I've not had any luck figuring out who he might be. --LOMI (talk) 20:27, 19 July 2019 (EDT)

I'm also not convinced Cratermaker and Fireline should be treated as old characters. What with the totally new names that don't sound anything like the Japanese ones (this team LOVES doing that to a stupid degree, see: Dinocassettes) and the different factions. They should ABSOLUTELY get mentioned on Powerbomb and Gunlift's pages, but as homages in Notes or something. --M Sipher (talk) 21:00, 19 July 2019 (EDT)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R6C7F-5B9ms John Warden commentates on the new reveals, including the Micromaster pack. It's a bit funky to interpret, he says these are all "deep cuts for all you late 80s micromaster fans," and says soon after "even some new characters, like Ricon." Besides that, nothing of note; interpret this as you will. --notirishman (talk) 22:20, 21 July 2019 (EDT)

Unicron

[edit]

How can we add him into this page? RoboWarriorPrime (talk), 07 August 2019

We don't. Setting aside the fact that it was only said to be part of WFC and not Siege specifically, the figure isn't yet confirmed to be going into wider production, as it still needs to hit its backer goal by the end of the month. It's entirely possible that it'll be canceled altogether. -- Cyberlink420 (talk) 16:29, 7 August 2019 (EDT)
I suppose the same thing for Runamuck, right? RoboWarriorPrime (talk), 07 August 2019

Hot Shot

[edit]

Hasbro announced Hot Shot as part of the toyline. He seems a mix of his Energon and Cybertron versions. Where can we add him? Henkei! Henkei! Hot Shot or Armada/toys Hot Shot? RoboWarriorPrime (talk), 10 August 2019

It's been leaked online, not officially anbounced or found in stores. When we will though, the description would be on the Henkei page, while the Armada page has a listing which links to the Henkei page. --notirishman (talk)

Final Waves of Micromaster and Battle Master figures

[edit]

Did something happen with the last waves of the figures? I can't seem to find confirmation of them as having actually been released for sale anywhere, not even Hasbro Pulse. Battlemaster (talk) 01:27, 7 January 2020 (EST)

Selects and Netflix

[edit]

I propose moving all the Selects figures as well as the Netflix subline to either War for Cybertron Trilogy, or a newly created War for Cybertron Trilogy (toyline) page. None of them have a "Siege" branding on their packaging, and since there are new Selects figures coming out, having them on any specific toyline's page becomes increasingly arbitrary. For that matter, we could also add Unicron to the list of "Trilogy" figures that aren't branded as part of any specific portion of the trilogy.--Nevermore (talk) 16:39, 22 March 2020 (EDT)
