Top 5 most wanted Transformers Shattered Glass figures

Another subline that started during Hasbro's War For Cybertron toyline trilogy that is still going to this day is the new IDW based Shattered Glass collection! Starting with a two pack of Optimus and Ratchet, Hasbro has settled into releasing groups of five Shattered Glass figures which all come with an accompanying comic set in a new Shattered Glass universe which I've greatly enjoyed! Our first set of five gave us Starscream, Megatron, Goldbug, Jetfire, and Blurr, and we're now partway through the second set! Ultra Magnus, Slicer, and Blaster have all joined the collection, and with two more figures to be revealed, and a whole new set of comics coming soon in the future, these are the top 5 Shattered Glass figures I hope to see in the line!




5. Prowl
Built up as one of the three Autobot despots ruling Cybertron in the present day storyline, Prowl hasn't actually gotten to do much yet but his importance speaks to his necessity as a figure! He was one of the main influences behind Goldbug rising up against Optimus, and it seems as though Prowl has some big plans in terms of trying to take control of the Titans for himself! Hasbro really loves reusing that Prowl mold as well, so this'd be another easy win for them!


4. Rodimus Prime
I haven't read any of the original Shattered Glass stuff; however, I want to and one of the designs from it that has really stuck out to me over the years was Rodimus! Cast in a black and purple color scheme, this version of the character looks absolutely wicked and we now have a new, fantastic Rodimus figure to be used as the basis! Plus that headsculpt with the handlebar moustache is perfection for a Transformer!


3. Insecticons

I was very excited to see the Insecticons make their debut in the IDW Shattered Glass series, and a very cool detail was casting them out of their Diaclone color schemes! This could be a great way to get Zaptrap, Shothole, and Salvo into the line as well as make excellent use of the newer Insecticon molds coming our way! Venom's appearance in the comic was very welcome as well, and between this repaint and his typical color scheme there are already multiple uses if Hasbro gives us a brand new Venom!


2. Thundercracker and Skywarp

Seeker repaints will never end, and these would be two more to throw onto the army of Decepticon lookalikes! Thundercracker in particular would be a stunning figure simply for that insane color pallet based on his original Action Master figure! All of the loud, clashing colors is unlike anything else we've had for Seeker figures in recent years and I'd buy it in a heartbeat! Skywarp's wasn't as flashy of a color scheme, but his role in the comic as the first of Goldbug's savage executions prior to the Insecticon slaughter has him high on my list as well.


1. Soundwave
Just like Rodimus, this is another Shattered Glass design that I like a lot and I love that it has been kept as intact as a lot of other Shattered Glass designs in this new IDW universe! The brighter colors definitely make him stand out compared to the standard Soundwave, along with his role as the Decepticon morale officer running the radio show! With the higher price of the Shattered Glass stuff I think they could easily throw in Ravage as a bonus, but the thing I'm most excited for would be that sweet headband!
