Still, I'd think they'd skimp on the accessories and do a completely different sculpt. The Earthrise one is great, but it's not the '86 version to the same degree that all of the other Studio Series ones are. I'd expect an all-new figure.

Same. They'll be new molds, but it will be difficult to make them different.

I think Ratchet had double guns in the movie, so we'll probably get a trigger-happy doc of a figure! He and Ironhide didn't use their base accessories in the show often (Ratchet had his for two seconds before that "Hauler pulls Hound up" in the beginning), but theoretically, we'll get figures which merge the design aspects of the toys and the animation models in a manner similar to the Masterpiece versions. If we're lucky, Ironhide might get that "Van Gun" which Bumblebee used in the series. It would be kinda cold if Ironhide has a "ruined back" design to echo his wound before Megatron's "Such heroic nonsense!" line!

I'm curious how far this will ultimately go. What figures from the OG series/86 Movie would you want?
