    That would be really cool! Great idea, I'm all for obscure characters getting releases :)

    Very true, I had a chance to grab them all recently but chose some TFTM figs I wanted more, hoping I get another opportunity to pick them up but just in case I'm looking for an affordable alternative

    Agreed completely.

    I don't need to reiterate my love for Diaclone, so put me down for each Diaclone redeco of the figures the OP mentioned. Also, any other suggestion I would have had has been taken.




    On a side note, I always considered the Prowl/Bluestreak/Smokescreen mold to be the Seekers' antithesis.

    I'd do a red repaint of Tracks as Overdrive, since Overdrive also had a flying car mode. Deco him right, and he can be Overdrive for some and Road Rage for others. Granted, Tracks and Overdrive don't really look at all alike, but hey: flying car.

    And I guess that makes Sideswipe, Sunstreaker and Red Alert the coneheads' antithesis?

    Interesting. Tigertrack was a yellow repaint of Sideswipe actually. I'd go with a color that hasn't been used yet.

    Sideswipe - Red
    Sunstreaker - Yellow
    Red Alert - White w/ Red

    Tracks - Blue
    Wheeljack - White w/ Green&Red

    What would be a good color choice? Silver? Orange sports cars are quite rare.

    I knew that. :) 

    What you meant was a Repaint done on a G1 figure where I'm quoting a Repaint from the BT series.
