Also, if the comic is getting a new arc, does it mean IDW will continue the storyline, or will the new publisher take over?

So, that's Ultra Magnus confirmed, and a leaked Blaster. Who else do you think is coming for wave 2? Based on the previous comics, I'm betting on Soundwave, Prowl and Slicer/Wheeljack. Metroplex would be cool and fitting given the comic's focus on the Titans, but seems very unlikely.

When we got the leaked listings for SG Wave 2 some monthd back, it was Magnus, Blaster, Soundwave, and Wheeljack, so those former 2 guesses of yours are on the money. The listings didn't contain a 5th character though, so we were expecting only a 4 figure wave until Magnus was revealed and the teaser thing showed 5 total figures, and thus we have no idea what the 5th figure will be. Prowl would be a good bet I'd think, but we'll have to wait to see for anything certain I guess.

SG Prowl's colors are boring, so I'm not betting on him. I really want a Thundercracker, but I think they killed him off. Is there another major Decepticon with a recent mold? Shockwave would be a Leader, and they like to vary the size classes, though maybe another Deluxe is the safer bet.

IDW will be completing the run. That comic is probably being written right now, if it isn't already done.

As for the 5th, I do have a WAG:

SG Metroplex from Cybertron Metroplex in Metrotitan colors

What about his prewar deco?



As opposed to his postwar deco:

Both?

Just what the world needs, two more Datsun redecoes!

Hey, Prowl is my man. I literally don't care how many they make.

Well then for your sake, I hope they do a Coronation Starscream-style set complete with a table-flipping accessory and play feature. Then I might be happy to put my Datsun collection into the double digits.

Although I said 'both', I only 'hope' for one of them. Probably pre-war, since I prefer the actual Prowl head, but thdey'll likely make the postwar if he gets released at all.

Like I said, that photo was a fan made digitbash. Here’s the official blaster

No smirk face, either.

It would make sense for the 5th figure to be Prowl, since he was in the comic already. Though my wish that it was Cyclonus, in Rodimus colors, but since we just got toy colors Cyclonus in Selects, it probably won't happen.

It can still happen, Hasbro isn't bashful about having multiple uses of the same mold out at the same time.

Nor can they give a source...

Don't worry, I've got it.

Thanks to In Demand Toys on Facebook for posting our first official look at Shattered Glass Blaster. What will likely be an upcoming Transformers Tuesday release, we're treated to a slightly more colorful take on SG Blaster with more purple than previous depictions. Sadly he doesn't have the smirking alternate head sculpt that has turned up recently on on at least one G1 Blaster release, something that we've seen happen before with Earthrise Starscream (intended for Skywarp) and Kingdom Beast Megatron (intended for but not used by T-Wrecks). It could be that that head sculpt was never meant to be used on the SG Blaster figure, but it certainly would have suited him. He comes with SG Rewind who retains the exact same color layout as the original SG figure, just with clear red.

More details and pre-orders on Hasbro Pulse should be coming soon. SG Blaster is a follow up to the previously revealed SG Ultra Magnus. Leaks have said that we should also expect SG Wheeljack and SG Soundwave in the future. Hasbro Pulse is teasing a fifth figure that has yet to be leaked. Thanks to Randomhero for posting SG Blaster in the Energon Pub Forums. If you have news you want to see us report here at Seibertron the best way is to use the news submission form linked to at the top of every page along with a source.

Another SG hit, this guy looks so good. I hope they keep the line going, especially with volume 2 of the comic coming.

And once again you and seibertron.com posts fammade digibashes thinking and announcing they’re real and refuses to believe their fake and get salty when proven wrong.

You’re the one who defended it right? As you phrased it best, “ Why would somebody photoshopping it not just turn all of the gray parts black since that's how the original figure did it? Strange to do such a tedious job and then only do the thighs black. “

Guess what? They did

But sure, instead of admitting fault just go at me for not letting it go and I pointed out the errors.

As for source. It’s not that hard. All the other sites already posted this 24 hours before you did.

Really nice.

Still whenever Blaster comes out for any given toyline, I always wonder whether that would be the one to give us our first "Soundwarrior" version (I mean, the blue/gray/teal one from the original MicroChange line toy, also included as an accessory for MP Loudpedal).

Sounds like an ideal Selects release

I’m still trying to find a Kingdom/Legacy Blaster I’ll settle for this version of the figure eventually if I have to.

Blaster looks sweet. Although, I was hoping/waiting for a Marvel comic head at some point, and thought this might be it. Has anyone seen or heard about one existing yet? Seems like it would be a given.

As the previous pics turned out to be a hoax, we're back to that one confirmed head for the Blaster mold. With current practices of alternate heads, a toy-accurate head would indeed be a given.

There was a toy/comic-ish head back in Titans Return, and presumably Twincast will be cartoon- rather than toy-accurate. With three redecoes of the same mold using thia head, I'm not optimistic for seeing the comics head this time around.

Is it just me, or are Rewind's arms molded in white plastic, rather than clear red plastic painted white?
