Note on the waves, there has been an adjustment. Vortex will be taking Swindle’s original place in wave 2 in the updated case assortments it seems (hence the product number reassignment). Swindle will be a later wave figure.

Product Number: G1028
Guess that definitively clears up the "which Swindle is it" speculation
while also conveniently strengthening the Nexus Prime theory...
How does it conveniently strengthen that theory?
It retroactively provides an answer to the first counter-argument/question that was posed when I mentioned the Superion + Bruticus = Nexus theory:

Plus the confirmation that it's actual Combaticons/Bruticus at all helps a lot, since starting with just Swindle was basically the only way they could release a Combaticon character without inherently soft-confirming the rest of the team. Adding Vortex to the equation brings the rest of the team with him, thereby promoting the "we'll have everything we need for a new Nexus" assertion from an assumption to a fact.
Or I could just be completely off-base and the team just really wants to make a Gen Selects Alpha Bravo, who knows.
