-No actual size is given for Starscream, although it is conformed that basic through supreme sizes will return.
-The force chips will be called Cyber Planet Keys.
-The plot of the series is that the Autobots and Decepticons are on a scavenger hunt to find all the Cyber Planet Keys due to a Energon crisis on Cybertron.
-Names of the first wave were given, altough there were no corresponding sizes or price points. Initial wave will feature:
