    I'd rather see Leozack as a RTS repaint of Classics Jetfire.

    Kup is not really obvious to me but perhaps :

    Hubs (1990) - Autobot Highway Reconnaissance - www.tfu.info
    Roughstuff (1989) - Decepticon Aerial Defense - www.tfu.info
    Sizzle (1988) - Autobot Interceptor - www.tfu.info
    Swerve (1986) - Autobot Metallurgist - www.tfu.info
    Big Hauler (1990) - Autobot Ground Transport - www.tfu.info
    Free Wheeler (1989) - Autobot Reconnaisance - www.tfu.info
    Crosshairs (1987) - Autobot Weapons Supervisor - www.tfu.info
    Joyride (1988) - Autobot Warrior - www.tfu.info or
    Ranger (1988) - Cybertron Ground Defense - www.tfu.info
    Gripper (1991) - Autobot Assault Force Leader - www.tfu.info
    Jackpot (1990) - Autobot Strategist - www.tfu.info (though this would be best as the DOTM ferrari as a remould)
    Kick-Off (1990) - Autobot Security Expert - www.tfu.info
    Rad (1990) - Autobot Aerospace Engineer - www.tfu.info
    Sprocket (1990) - Autobot Surface Survelliance - www.tfu.info
    Terror-Tread (1990) - Decepticon Demolitions - www.tfu.info or
    Sledge (1990) - Decepticon Battlefield Fortification - www.tfu.info
    Discharge (1992) - Cybertron - www.tfu.info
    Erector (1989) - Autobot Construction Engineer - www.tfu.info

    But any of the characters who have a suitable alt mode like say G2 Electro look nothing like that head and vice versa if they have a similar head then the alt mode is wrong.

    They might have got away with using Scourge to make another version of Treadbolt. I suppose :
    Tread Bolt (1990) - Autobot Air Defense - www.tfu.info

    Tricky though.. even though these are Repaints.Remoulds perhaps its a good sign that the Generations/Universe like theme will continue in some way even when Dark of the Moon is about on the shelves as there's a fair few remoulds we still have to see in plastic form yet.

    Which is good as I hope they have chance to get around to a better coloured G2 Laser Optimus or a version of that mould as Nemesis Prime/Scourge/ Black Battle Convoy.

    I suppose They could be going for homages to all sorts of weirdness - with Hasbro you never know heck it could be Cybertron Scattershot or something equally bizarre.

    I'd be up for the idea of Scourge as the Rescue Force Jet it would give him an nice Autobot look with out it having to be yet another version of The Technobot Strafe.

    Gears or Swerve are not a million miles away from it though.

    I have made a startling discovery. Kup's alternate head may not be Gears. There is another guy with a triple mohawk, and he's even a pickup.

    Go Bots Small Foot.

    Haha, glad I'm not the only one who thought that at first. It'd make sense, rounding out the rest of the movie stuff, but I don't really think the head matches that well.

    Dion is the only one with that chest, but the head is not a match, so its very up in the air.
