My list is more what hasn't been done beyond SS. Windcharger, Seaspray, Powerglide. Perhaps some nameless seekers from MTMTE. Hasbro loves to reuse molds. Be nice to get all the tapes. I skipped over Scourge and Sweeps first time due to money.
If 2026 really is the end for 86, I can see them finally see them retooling 86 Bee into Cliffjumper and finally giving us an 86 Prowl with the proper head sculpt. (Because the Earthrise version is just Bluestreak's head) Also I think the reason they waited so long for a new Cliffjumper is because they wanted the 86 Bee's to phase out of the market since they flooded stores with him to make sure everyone got one. And they didn't want Cliff to compete with Bee on the market because, well, they would share the same mold and Bee has branding on his side.
YES!!!! I’m saying!!! I love everything about ss damaged prowl ratchet ironhide and brawn, from the extra strength of opaque plastic, to the cartoon blue windows, to the better color matching, but the battle damage and faces make them so limited use, it’s very frustrating. This would be a really fantastic idea, I’m all for it.
I’ll be super enraged if they only release a battle damaged Windcharger for ss86 and not a regular one. If Prowl, Ironhide and Ratchet got both treatments then Windcharger should def have one. He just like the previous bots are season 1 characters which are the legendary OG crew and are very important to the movie cast.
Yes, and the character that pulls the lever that drops Granix, Cup, and Hotrod into the sharkticon pit. It can transform into some kind of praying mantis monster! 😃 It would be great to get a new ss86 sharkticon with a new 😈 smiling head sculpt from when they realized they outnumber the quintessons and can take them out.
If Hasbro and Takara Tomy are really series about going all out for the film's 40th anniversary, these are the Studio Series 86 figures I, and the rest of us hardcore fans, must have: #1) re-issue of Earthrise Prowl in Sunbow cartoon colours* #2) Autobot Windcharger deluxe class figure (could be a Cliffjumper or Chase remold)* #3) Ultra Magnus Commander class reissue* #4) Earthrise Thundercracker & Skywarp (non-battle damaged)** #5) Deluxe Class Insection leader Shrapnel reissue from Transformers Legacy Evolution* #6) New Allicons #7) New Quintesson Bailiff with Kranix minifigure #8) the rest of the voyager class Junkions #9) re-issue of Scraphook* 10) re-issue of Axlegrease (but in regular Junkion colours (red, orange and brown))* 11) 3-pack of the Coneheads (Thrust, Dirge & Ramjet)* 12) 3-pack of Generic Seekers (Hotlink, Bitstream, Redwing) 13) Dead Wheeljack & Windcharger 2-pack with Autobot City attack backdrop And 14) Studio Series Leader Class Shockwave (cartoon colours plus battle armor from SIEGE, with Cybertron laboratory backdrop).**
Yes to the insecticon 3x pack & Cyclonus, plus the third act saviour Rodimus Prime and an alive prowl. I really feel like they will “save” the rest for a generic G1 deco line and/or concurrent comic run line (given a lot of the comic cast and 86 movie cast are recent molds/awaiting releases. Maybe my math is wrong - but they already ditched the SS86 packaging, so having a comic line would be a parlay with the G1 deco if they want to keep doing those figures. I can’t see them not continuing to feed the G1 beast if that is what sales figures point at for moving product. The question is; how many more characters are they going to produce before they outsource their manufacturing (and more so what will change with outsourcing).
As long as next year we get the following: Prowl (alive), Rewind (solid colours), Blitzwing, Thundercracker, Skywarp, Schrapnel, Kickback, Bombshell, Ravage, Laserbeak and Cyclonus. I will definitely be happy for sure and maybe Hasbro could pack in Rewind, Ravage and Laserbeak with ‘86 Soundwave like how Ramhorn and Ratbat are going to be packaged with PR Perceptor at a Voyager Class price point
If I had to guess Thundercracker, Skywarp, Quintesson, Repack of Kingdom Hot Rod in the 86 line, Cyclonus and Alice Prowl are the most likely. Anything after that is an added bonus
Kinda hard, they've done alot of them in the generations mainline. Definitely want a Prowl, a more color accurate Cyclonus (without the thighs yellowing), Quintesson Executioner, Arbuls/Kranis, and more of the Junkions.
Okay, I know Unicron is the most likely Titan figure but, consider. They've shown that they're willing to break the mold by putting out Star Optimus Prime, who's more of an overdeveloped Leader Class with tons of accessories. So. Consider. Breaking the mold even more. Titan Class Autobot City Playset.
Rude awakening of Prime moment. Commander Class Rodimus could definitely use some improvements. Better plastic, steel pins in the bumper halves, and hip skirts so they don't fall off effortlessly, and a backpack that actually tabs into place. If Hasbro can fix all of that I'd consider one for the 86 line, and keep the Kingdom release in space Winnebago mode. I'm probably one of the subjective few who likes the Earthrise Seeker jet most so than other iterations. At least it know how to put away the arms, and fists. Only improvement it really needs is a waist swivel. As is I wouldn't be opposed to it being 86 Skywarp, and Thundercracker. Definitely want to see a release of Cyclonus, and Prowl in the new year.
My biggest hope for Unicron is that Hasbro releases an announcement in late 2025 that the Haslab Unicron will be available for limited pre-order on Hasbro Pulse in 2026 to celebrate the 40th anniversary of the movie. I know the odds of a Haslab being rereleased is a long shot, but given that it has been 5 years and the movie anniversary, I think there’s a chance it could happen. Especially if they announce it a few months before so people can save up and pre-order early in the year for a late 2026 delivery.
SS86 Figures we still need: Windcharger Wheeljack New Prowl New Cliffjumper New Bluestreak Huffer Grapple Sunstreaker Hound Rodimus Prime Kranix Arbulus Rewind Tigertrack? Hubcap? Beachcomber? Gears? Daniel Exosuit New Soundwave Shockwave New Laserbeak & Ravage Thundercracker Skywarp Kickback Shrapnel Bombshell Blitzwing Astrotrain Thrust Dirge Ramjet Reflector Cyclonus Rubbish Recycle Greasestain Wastoid Gamma In other words, there is no way we're going to get this done within a year. (Characters with question marks are based on animation errors or undetermined appearances.)
Nice list. I would like to add, not a SS86 per se, I need a reissue of the 30th anniversary Metroplex to go with the age of primes Trypticon I ordered. Missed out on that Metroplex first time around.
I like your idea about reissuing a quintesson in better colors. I think astrotrain really needs a new toy. You are so right about Cyclonus too, they definitely should reissue him, the yellowing was terrible
I would imagine the Allicons too. I'd buy two from ss86, because current prices for siege are ridiculous. I'd take a quintesson too. Super 7 isn't quite big enough. And Thrust. I'd definitely want a new mold for Soundwave.
Only 1 thing better than chocolate stout and that's chocolate and espresso infused Imperial Stout! Not buying a dead pack of Jackie & Windcharger but alive bots Windcharger is at the TOP of the where is he list, Jackie being my favourite character would get strong consideration for purchasing but I wonder if he would be any different from the one from the 5 pack?
I used to work for an Italian restaurant in my 20's and they used to order this espresso soda that was amazing. One of the pizza makers used to keep an espresso machine in the back kitchen. I was wired for the whole day🤣
By the end of 2026 we should have the full roster characters from season 1 through 3 complete. Then they can put G1 away for a while and concentrate of new characters, new lore, and circle back to G1 in 2034.
I have a prediction for the end of the 86 line, and that is hasbro may continue the riding success of g1 figures by maybe making studio series figures based in the g1 cartoon series, and may be the start of them venturing into making figures based on various transformers tv series, with updated molds.
My personal must-haves from your list are Rodimus and Unicron. For Rodimus I think the Kingdom Mold works fine, but he should def be a little taller so that he's the same head height as 86 Optimus. If not, then I can live with it. He would *definitely* need a more accurate head sculpt but I doubt Hasbro will treat us given how Galvatron came out. I'd be happy with Titan Class Unicron, I don't want the Haslab in my collection since his weight stresses me out. There's not much you'd need to do for him since he's not known to hold any weapons, so it'll purely be his transformation and paint that have the most attention. Other stuff I'll casually be on the lookout for are SS86 Soundwave (IF he has a new mold), and the last dead two-pack if they decide to do it. I'm also definitely going to get Megatron since I don't like the Dramatic Capture version I own, I just want a good version of him that isn't Siege/ER.
You forgot Lazerbeak, who I hope will come with SS86 Soundwave. He's not just a background character and plays an important part in the movie - it's his "report" that reveals the Autobot spaceship is open to attack. Cue the Autobot spaceship massacre and assault on Autobot City!!! And, of course, we need an undamaged Prowl as you mentioned in another video. He's the only one not issued in non-battle damaged form from the Autobot shuttle now. I caved and bought the battle damaged version, as I was tired of waiting and desperate to add him to my collection! But great choices, and I definitely want a decent Thundercracker and Skywarp for my collection. Missed out on the Legacy versions and they are quite pricey now.
We got a representation of Kranix in the Pit Of Judgement set, but we do need a deluxe size. Soundwave and Astrotrain are confirmed for 2026. I bet ANYTHING we will get an 86 Rodimus Prime NO DOUBT. We need an 86 Shockwave that's a new mold or retool just like 86 Springer and a 86 Cliffjumper new mold. The rest that are just recolors (Insecticons, seekers, coneheads, Cyclonus, ect) can be in the Selects line like the 5 pack Autobots are🤓💯
So can we expect every year from here on out to be celebrated as the 40th anniversary? Because we’re a month in to 2025 and they’ve got a whole new 40th logo for this year for…some reason. And now it looks like it’s continuing on in to 2026.
Something tells me we are getting more junkions.... Which i had grabbed the nonneff conversion but i didn't see it. Good call one kranix. I legitimately think they did the clear rewind so the COULD sell you the one you wanted later. (honestly they could just have done rosanna and made people happier and gave us rewind for this later.)
Ed you are wrong, Evan Brooks said and I quote "I made it a rule where, no matter how short of an appearance they have in the movie, in 86, they get a studio series" he said this speaking of the characters in the movie, Also in the triple takeover podcast he said and I quote "I'm just gonna throw it out here: in 2026 when it's the 40th anniversary of the movie we will probably have blown through like all 86 characters by then... and I can mind deleted scenes for only so long, and to also get all those unique death scenes and things like that, that i want". In other words all those background characters will have ss86 a release characters like Huffer, Bluestreak, Grapple, Reflector, Death scene Characters like windcharger and wheeljack, deleted scene characters like Sideswipe, Red alert, Tracks, alive Wheeljack, dead Trailbreaker, and dead and alive mirrage
How is that gonna fit the time frame we have? Most of 2025 is leaked already and they can't possibly complete the remaining list of characters in 2026 alone when they compete with lines like aotp for character slots.
@@AltonB.6776 He said this in September of 2024, nor you, nor I, neither Ed work at Hasbro, we can only go by what the person that works there and designs this line says, there is 27 characters still need to be released this includes the ones that we know are coming out leaked and formally announced. 2026 could be a year where all the waves and every single toy in each wave is ss86 or at least most of them.
@TimeOfTheEnd-z6v We don't have to work there to use logic and reasoning. I don't think they're gonna suddenly kick out every other series of transformers so they can do exclusively the 86 movie. Hasbro has never done anything like that and wouldn't make sense to start now especially when we already know some series like tf one and bayverse are confirmed to have more toys coming out that year.
@@AltonB.6776 Evan has also said that the line that sells a lot more than the others is ss86, logically it wouldn't take nothing for them to just release ss86 or mostly ss86 in 2026 the year of the 40th anniversary of the movie, these are unique circumstances how many times do you have a 40th anniversary, you think they didnt have this is mind? he said ss86 will end then his words not mine. You are assuming, I'm quoting what he said
WFC Kingdom Cyclonus doubles as Studio Series Cyclonus, so it shouldn’t be a surprise he’ll get reissued down the line. I would like to see Arblus and Kranix, however. They desperately need toys.
Yeah but other than that, too minor to miss out on another character. They could just reissue the 5-pack version under the SS'86 banner and Hound as well....
It seems pretty fuckin stupid to me to make a new Unicron after the Haslab. That thing is supposed to be the pinnacle or holy grail of all Transformers toys. Making a new one so soon would just cheapen the whole thing.
Unless hasbro themselves comes out and says SS86 will end in 2026 I will not believe that it is ending in 2026 That being said, excited for what comes next
*Who do you wanna see for the 40th Anniversary of SS'86?!?*
My list is more what hasn't been done beyond SS. Windcharger, Seaspray, Powerglide. Perhaps some nameless seekers from MTMTE. Hasbro loves to reuse molds. Be nice to get all the tapes. I skipped over Scourge and Sweeps first time due to money.

I need to get that 86 Prowl (new head sculpt). The Earthrise one goes for too much... and my old 2008 Universe version has that paint issue.
I don't want battle damaged bots ! They should come with attachable pieces we can switch in and out so this way we can do different scenes.
YES!!!! I’m saying!!! I love everything about ss damaged prowl ratchet ironhide and brawn, from the extra strength of opaque plastic, to the cartoon blue windows, to the better color matching, but the battle damage and faces make them so limited use, it’s very frustrating. This would be a really fantastic idea, I’m all for it.
completely agree its just Hasbro being lazy and so that they can sell it as another redeco!!
@@gusoo12nah its tactical 💀😔🤣
@ lmfao we getting dogwalked by hasbro😅
but how are they gonna sell you two of the same figure?
poetic that the 86 line is ending on the 40th anniversary of the 86 movie.
Man, we're barely into 2025 and already talking about next year!
Damn!
I’ll be super enraged if they only release a battle damaged Windcharger for ss86 and not a regular one. If Prowl, Ironhide and Ratchet got both treatments then Windcharger should def have one. He just like the previous bots are season 1 characters which are the legendary OG crew and are very important to the movie cast.
Unicron Will More Than a Titan Class.
I agree with most on your list. I will be annoyed if we get a dead windcharger before a live windcharger. Still waiting for prowl.
Still need a full size Quintesson Prosecutor. The miniature included in the Pit of Judgement set isn't cutting it.
Yes, and the character that pulls the lever that drops Granix, Cup, and Hotrod into the sharkticon pit. It can transform into some kind of praying mantis monster! 😃 It would be great to get a new ss86 sharkticon with a new 😈 smiling head sculpt from when they realized they outnumber the quintessons and can take them out.

#8) the rest of the voyager class Junkions
#9) re-issue of Scraphook*
10) re-issue of Axlegrease (but in regular Junkion colours (red, orange and brown))*
11) 3-pack of the Coneheads (Thrust, Dirge & Ramjet)*
12) 3-pack of Generic Seekers (Hotlink, Bitstream, Redwing)
13) Dead Wheeljack & Windcharger 2-pack with Autobot City attack backdrop
And 14) Studio Series Leader Class Shockwave (cartoon colours plus battle armor from SIEGE, with Cybertron laboratory backdrop).**
We need a proper Shockwave too. The siege was good but I want Shockwave to get a bigger scaled figure before Hasbro throws in the towel.
Yes to the insecticon 3x pack & Cyclonus, plus the third act saviour Rodimus Prime and an alive prowl.
I really feel like they will “save” the rest for a generic G1 deco line and/or concurrent comic run line (given a lot of the comic cast and 86 movie cast are recent molds/awaiting releases.

No more dead figures. Let us use our imagination.
I kinda agree with that. Give us alive Windcharger and Prowl please!!!
@@superroboted Imagine if they do just the dead ones
As long as next year we get the following:
Prowl (alive), Rewind (solid colours), Blitzwing, Thundercracker, Skywarp, Schrapnel, Kickback, Bombshell, Ravage, Laserbeak and Cyclonus.
I will definitely be happy for sure and maybe Hasbro could pack in Rewind, Ravage and Laserbeak with ‘86 Soundwave like how Ramhorn and Ratbat are going to be packaged with PR Perceptor at a Voyager Class price point
SS86 Soundwave is gonna get the OP treatment. No more repurposed legacy jag
Yessir!!!
G1 is just too good I still like Bayverse and One but G1 is something else. I really wish they would do Prime characters justice
I did not like what they did with the Prime characters in Legacy so I just go for the originals.
If they gave us Thundercracker and Skywarp, they'd just be the Earthrise figures with different paint decos
We need newer Seeker molds. The Siege ones are still so good because they gave you everything.
If I had to guess
Thundercracker, Skywarp, Quintesson, Repack of Kingdom Hot Rod in the 86 line, Cyclonus and Alice Prowl are the most likely. Anything after that is an added bonus
We NEED a Windcharger tho
I mean, there _was_ an 86 Hot Rod.
I'd like a reissue of that, mind.
Conehead trio square off against Optimus in his fight scene. We also might get a dead optimus for trauma lovers.
@@treyusdawntreader9567 I forgot about that. They would almost have to reissue an 86 Optimus - maybe another double pack with the 86 Megatron redeco
Kinda hard, they've done alot of them in the generations mainline. Definitely want a Prowl, a more color accurate Cyclonus (without the thighs yellowing), Quintesson Executioner, Arbuls/Kranis, and more of the Junkions.

A lot of these characters are in WFC. IMO, Hasbro most likely is going to give us repaints on most, Very few will get a remold.
86 leader rodimus where he transforms into the cab and trailer would be fire
Unfortunately, he will be a redeco of the same figure confirmed by Evan Brooks.
I didn't know this was speculative, I thought we got more leaked listings.

Preciate the news Ed. Always on top of things!!

Unless hasbro themselves comes out and says SS86 will end in 2026 I will not believe that it is ending in 2026
That being said, excited for what comes next
I’d pick up ss86 Rodimus Prime. Hopefully they would remold the face. The kingdom RP looks a bit too aged.
They need to re release the quints
I got lucky picking up one from Walmart...I damn near ran to the counter to pay for it.
YEAHH
I wrote them all down for the movie.
We need Shockwave…
Maybe they will give us the Bridge deco in a single release
