Some kind of combiner - could have been power combiners, but looked to me more like it was built from Legends sized figures - and it was definitely not Devastator. One of the legs looked like a jet or shuttle of some kind. Could be a Legends Bruticus set? Was very lanky and with wiry limbs, but humanoid in shape.
OoooOOooo I'm starting to get into legends class figs and a legends Bruticus!?!? TeH Win!!!!

Oh well, Seiberton usually reports on everything and a few pics usually get released, so I will see the new TF's soon enough!

You bet you'll see the usual hundreds of photos posted on the night of February 13th. Plane ticket and hotel are already paid for ... just need to get there to take pics to share with all of you in two weeks.

Sweet! I know where I'll be getting my info.

Sorry DS Hasbro asked to remove that info before.

That's cool bro. It's my fault I missed the memo in the Staff Campaign Room. Muh Bad! Thanks for mopping up my mistakes though. BFFN!
--DS
Keep in mind this is in no way confirmed and I won't be front paging it because at this point it's only speculation
Could the continued Classics/Universe line be called Generations? Will video game characters be placed in this line as well?
EDIT:
Here's a few more tid-bits from our friends over at TFW. However at this time without pictures and, it coming from an unreliable source (as in not someone like s250 or our own Real Devi) it doesn't amount to a hill of beans worth of legit info; so take it with a fist full of peanuts.
* Seaspray is a boat with room for Scouts on his deck
* Revenge of the Fallen toy line name will be dropped from packaging, the line will be re-branded just as "Transformers"
* Power Core Combiners is a "Transformers" sub-line
* Power Core Combiners 2-packs and 5-packs can be combined together
* One of the Power Core 5-pack combiners is a new Bruticus!
* New Transformers RPMs molds including Drift
* RPM Bumblebee track set
* RPM Stealth Force - deluxe/voyager size vehicles with fold out weaponry. Doesn't sound like they transform.
* Transformers Animated may get 'phased' back into the UK in late 2010.

We will be there Sunday, so I will get to check out the pics when I get home Sunday night. We plan on ordering from Hasbro this year, so hoepfully I will finally get to see the Hasbro site in 2011.

I didn't think Seaspray had such a fanbase...I would've chosen Warpath for an Ultra Class figure. I know we already got Legends Warpath, but I'd love to see a more intricate design & transformation for him. Still, I'll probably get Seaspray.
Hasbro has previously expressed a reluctance to have more than one tank character out. I guess Bludgeon got higher votes.
I'm glad they're giving some Minibots a better scaled representation. I was always bothered by puny Powerglide vs. the seekers... and Seaspray was just useless. But, Warpath, Cosmos, Beachcomber, and Brawn still have possibilities of getting a larger than Legends size rendition since Hound got both without being as popular as Bumblebee. This begs the question: where's my classics/universe/generations Jazz?!! Hasbro, get to it!!
