    My short list for what I want next:

    Prowl/other Datsuns
    Cyclonus
    Kup

    I would say Galvatron, but honestly his alt mode sucks so badly that it would be a waste. Cyclonus up there is his placeholder. :)

    My thinking was more along the lines of "use the Soundwave 'skeleton' and remold all the outer parts" just because their transformation schemes are pretty similar. More of a total reshell than a remold. It wouldn't at all be like remolding MP Sideswipe into Sunstreaker, which would be impossible since their transformation schemes are completely different.

    I just think that if MP Blaster is something they want to get to someday, they may not have to start from scratch if they can use the basic design from Soundwave. And they seem to want to push more MP's out at a faster rate than before, so they may be looking for any opportunities to use their existing engineering for other characters.

    I go with the majority opinion that there are plenty of figures I would prefer they do before Blaster. BUT, if Blaster was announced as the next MP, I would not at all complain and hit pre-order just as quickly.

    I think they'll go again after 3rd party companies.

    So MP Megatron and MP Ironhide/Ratchet.

    Would be surprised if a heavy retool of Soundwave into Blaster *IS NOT* already in the works.

    In my opinion the only character that SHOULD be next is a proper Megatron to go along with MP10. Would I like to see Blaster next. Hell yeah!! I would have no complaints

    MP Wave into MP Blaster simply would not work. Their dimensions are all different. Blaster is long in alt mode. Soundwave is much closer to square. The skeleton itself is entirely different.

    I think Megatron should be G2 to avoid the problem of a realistic handgun again.

    I'd LOVE for him to be next, but I think they're going with more cars first and hopefully Megz 2.0!!!
