This morning, a set of pictures arrived upon the internet that  will excite all of you who have been fans of transforming robots. Via Taghobby / Cybergundam on Facebook, we have a look at a whole line of Soul of Gokin (high-end release from Bandai) versions of several Machine Robos, who many of you may remember from the 1980s as the GoBots!
The characers shown, whilst obviously the Machine Robo versions, seem to be based on chactaers that straddled the two series. Seen so far are:

CY-KILL
FITOR
SCREWHEAD
TURBO
LEADER-1
TANK
SPAY-C
BLOCKHEAD

The scale of these guys is looking like the current Hasbro Deluxe.
So. Excited? Can those Powerful Living Rocks be far behind? Keep an ear open for Welcome To Kimia's next episode to hear more about this as it develops!
Big thanks to DomBlanco for the heads up!
UPDATE! Thanks to BigD, we know that it's Blockhead in the second picture....and we have a new picture
