TFormers received some more information on the 3H Exclusives that The AllSparked showed off a few days ago. Here is what they heard.."These images you have seen are part of the planned exclusives for the 2005 year. These sketches where part of a 75 page proposal sent to Hasbro for the renewal of the convention license in 2005.
Brawn and Roadbuster, as you see, where split molded with different heads from the Strongarm mold. Each would have came with a new Energon weapon, much like the weapons featured with the Energon basics on shelves currently, as well as the Energon axe that came with the Strongarm mold originally. Brawn would have came with Energon gauntlets that fit over his fist in robot mode - Brawn is the Wreckers" demolitionist specialist. Roadbuster would have came with an assault rifle based on the G1 design that came with the original toy.
Devcon is remolded from Energon Slugslinger. The remolded parts that you see are the head, based on the G1 cartoon design. However, what you do not see are the wing mounted Energon missles/gun turrets that would have given the toy an almost entirely different look in vehicle mode.
Hot Spot/Defensor is obviously in close to finished form here. The paint masters where with Hasbro as stated at the 2004 Organizers" panel. If the convention license would have been lost, this would have been the 2005 Collector"s Club exclusive. This figure would have been made, in some fashion, for the fans.
BW Megatron is obviously remolded from RID Megatron. The head would have been completely new, and there where plans as well for the feet/dragon heads to be remolded to more closely resemble the TM2 Megatron design. What you don"t see in these designs however is the planned additional accessory ... Megatron"s favorite bathtime buddy ... his rubber duck."
