I'd think it'd be really cool if Hasbro did Punch/Counterpunch from Univesre 2.0 Sunstreaker. And of course, Red Alert from the same mold as well.

Well, since its hard to think of repaints for Galvatron and Octane, I figure they'll get as much out of Sunstreaker & Prowl as possible. Which means Red Alert, Smokescreen, and a different version of Blue/Silverstreak from Takara. Think they said Ratchet would be made from Ironhide eventually. Maybe a repaint of Onslaught in a homage of the Walmart exclusive 'Urban camo' RID Ruination set?

Punch/Counterpunch would be cool, he'd probably get a new head, but I'd prefer if he just got a new mold altogether. I'd also like the Sideswipe mold remolded/repainted into Red Alert and Prowl's mold repainted into Smokescreen(with a possible head remold)

I've always wanted to see Bluestreak in the G1 boxart colors that we never got. If we couldnt get it in G1 (or ehobby, surprisingly), maybe we can get it for Universe. (Shattered Glass, perhaps?)

Eh, aside from obvious ones like Sideswipe into Red Alert or Silverstreak into Smokescreen (or a blue Blue/Silverstreak) there really aren't that many G1 characters they could be repainted into that wouldn't be completely retarded. I'd say new characters or, where applicable, G2 colors.

Hmmm...Botcon or Collector's club Punch/Counterpunch? I wouldn't be surprised if we see at least one universe mold in next year's set.

Powerglide's head really reminds me of BM Skydive so that'd be an amusing one.

Yeah, obviously Smokescreen, Sideswipe, Red Alert, and I agree that potential Diaclone redecos could be cool, like the blue Bluestreak or police Sunstreaker. For some more obscure ones, how about redoing Onslaught as, for instance, Roadblock?

I can see Takara doing one of the 'Streak repaints and Botcon getting the other (Takara probably the silver hood and FP the packing colors?). Club could also do G2 Sideswipe (ideally with a new name) and make E. Towline from the Ironhide figure (which would be a nice irony if both Ironhide and Ratchet were retail this time).
