In 1986 a curious Mini-Bot was released named Hubcap. This character never appeared in the popular cartoon but over the years he would pop up here and there in G1 based fiction. Last year, Hasbro released a version in the Generations Selects line! Check out my review and gallery of this figure.
In a surprise afternoon reveal, Hasbro has opened up orders for a surprise Transmutate figure! Based on the character who appeared in the Beast Wars episode "Transmutate", the character made a huge impression on fans over the years even though she only appeared in one episode of the television show. This figure is a retool and redeco of Paleotrex featuring a new head and a deco based on her colors from the TV show, this is definitely one of the most unusual releases in Selects to date!

One is a forgetful (but extremely skilled) trooper, the other was originally a piloted mecha who gained sentience. Together Cordon and Spin-Out are a formidable pair of Autobots! Check out my review and gallery of this Generations Selects two pack inspired by the Diaclone era.
For several weeks now fans have been seeing leaks on social media for a Generations Selects Deep Cover action figure, a redeco of Siege Sideswipe. The colors are based on a Diaclone era variant of the mold used for Sideswipe in the G1 line and the character goes back to the era of e-Hobby releasing redecos of G1 reissues based on their Diaclone counterparts!
One of the most surprising additions to the Generations Selects line was a homage to G2 Megatron. Check out my review and gallery of Megatron in all his green and purple awesomeness!
