    And they will be. Cliffjumper is already planned.

    I think I would personally prefer different characters rather than the same character in some form of upgrade like we have seen in the movie and animated lines. But this is Generations, I don't think that kind of thing would be suitable for it.

    I think the color schemes they are repainted into should be able to be replicated on the game itself. If the game doesn't allow a certain color scheme to be used then it shouldn't be used for the toy. In my opinion.

    Ultra Magnus from Optimus. Is he in the DS version? Different head and red, white, and blue colors.

    Blaster from Soundwave with a new head. Or G1 Mainframe would be even better, but it'd never happen.

    Megatron would be the hardest...

    Optimus Prime could be remolded into either Ultra Magnus or MotorMaster. And I agree with Thundershot...

    Megatron could be retooled into Brawl (obviously with a new head). A neat feature could be dual guns that can clip onto his back.

    They can probably get an Ultra Magnus and a MotorMaster out of a Optimus retool (the same one, even).

    I'd buy a Megatron with Galvatron head. It'd make up for the Universe toy (which I actually liked up until yesterday when his right arm snapped clean in two. :(  )

    Galvatron! Galvatron! Galvatron!


    Just me chanting then? ;)

    I foresee Prime & Megs being repainted as themselves. Probably a store exclusive 2-pack with shiny paint jobs or battle damage or just slightly altered paint jobs.

    Soundblaster from Soundwave, but I like that Mainframe idea. That's probably a repaint I'd go for.

    Ultra Magnus in WFC-verse looks very different from Optimus.

    With epic battle damage. Not random black splotches.

    Hopefully a Seeker mold will come out and that can get repainted like crazy.

    Vehicle mode looks similar though. I think it could work with a new head and retooled shoulders.

    Similar in that they both have red and blue.

    I'd also say that Ultra Magnus is a pretty safe bet, but I could see Galvatron happening as well.

    Brawl is way too different than Megz to warrant a simple head swap and repaint. I'd love to see Hasbro attempt to tackle Brawl as a figure.

    Anyways, as far as repaints? I'd like to see all three of the Seekers done when Starscream eventually comes out!

    I'd love a Magnus from Prime. I know a lot of people got tired of that, but it's actually been 3 years since the last "white Prime" repaint.

    Megatron - maybe give him a head remold and do Warpath?

    BB - I would love 3rd head mold & green for a G1 Wasp

    Soundwave - Maybe it's time for the 1st official/retail SG toy?

    I'm guessing we'll see all 3 seekers, too.
