Deflated. Sac.

They kind of teased that we will be getting the winged one from this pic on Twitter. It looks like they're basically making it as battle damaged Otachi, with the acid sac torn out and the tail severed.

You can see her head in the bottom right with the torn out acid sac battle damage effect, and her wing spans behind the two PotA's statues.

Take the tail off, add wings, maybe include acid spin instead of the tongue.

I fully expect one of the next figures to be Mutavore, the Australian kaiju bested by Striker Eureka, as its body is similar enough to Trespasser that they can just do a heavily modified mold.

To my knowledge, after that, all that's left are truly unique kaiju featured in the film - Onibaba (the crab), Raiju (split head), and Slattern. Those will be one shot molds with a high production cost attached.

Beyond those are minor kaiju that either cameoed in the film (like Karloff) or appeared in spinoff media (games comics). I'd love Karloff, but would pass the rest.

They apparently are retooling Otachi for just that, though this regular version already comes with an acid stream to swap off with the tongue.

Mutavore was asked about on Twitter not too terribly long ago and Randy gave us a "maybe." If we got Mutavore I could see them making Hardship from it since they shared the same base body akin to how Trespasser, Knifehead, and Scunner shared a base body. Mutavore though was much thinner and less bulky.

I always thought of Raiju as an alligator or crocodile Kaiju whose head just happens to split open like that. We could eventually see a Raiju deluxe figure to partner with Scunner, but I think if we got Onibaba or Karloff they would be smaller and not deluxe figures since they were smaller than the rest of the Kaiju. Slattern on the other hand would be like how they did the Alien queen or the 24" long Godzilla. Karloff would be pretty cool to have though.
