It was one of JTPrime's leaks, yes, but it was in the same leak for Missing Link Sentinel Prime. JTPrime also noted they were Takara Imports, meaning it was a rare instance of JTPrime doing a Takara leak rather than a Hasbro leak.Wasn't he included in one of the JTPrime leaks for a Hasbro release?

Right now, the Core Class is rumored to be side lined. I guarantee Sureshot will make it out, even if they had to shuffle his slot.They might be saving the Core Dinobot reveal for Pulsecon. I just hope that we haven't lost Sureshot.
I've said it before, I will say it again (over and over):Honestly? I'd be all in on two Core boxsets of the BW cast.
To be fair, I think Core stuck to that conceit better than Legends ended up doing. The entire 2013 Legends slate were 4 packs, each with one of the “big 4”…and they sold fine FOR AN ENTIRE YEAR. Then it shifted to “small characters” and sales seemed to start dropping off.IMO core needs to fix its identity. Either dedicate it to small versions of mainline characters or small characters, not this weird hodgepodge.
I feel at least part of the size issue comes from Hasbro’s (or at least, the current regime) sensitivity to “visual value”. For a while, all the “kid’s toys” for Marvel were 5-6” tall. So, during the Infinity War and Endgame sales periods, you had figures comparatively sized to the much pricier Marvel Legends for half the price. In some cases, the kids lines managed to get key characters to market before Legends.IMO Core is just too expensive for what you get nowadays.
I get that's just Transformers in general but Core being the small size-class just makes it feel the most noticeable.
I stand by the idea that the loss of the Minibots at that scale crippled the size class. Well, that and having too many double dips of characters in both the movie and generations aesthetics at the same time. Also it would have been nice to see some souped up minicons at Core class, but I probably would have been more excited for that than most people.I like the spot being used for smaller characters (Exosuit Spike, Noah, and Mohawk are all nice) rather than "here's the same characters in a smaller scale". But then I was also fine with the G1 Minibots being Legends class rather than all getting bumped up to Deluxe.
Either way, I think it'd be easier to market the scale if it were one of those things rather than trying to be a venue for both, which it's been since Kingdom.
