    It sounds weird , but I kinda think he could pass for Triggerhappy, since their cockpit is elongated and small wings that are towards the back.

    Obviously the headmaster would stick out, unless Hasbro could engineer him to have a regular head?

    I doubt they will not repaint him. I guess im not that imaginative about other uses lol.

    I've said this in other threads, but I have a weird out-of-left-field guess that it might be Mindwipe. I think if you ditch the jet nose, add a bat head, and replace the wings with bat-wings, you could get a bat mode out of him pretty easily. The way his wings attach to the arms is very Mindwipe-y, he's already a headmaster (with all the working gears for the stats readout, the cockpit, and the head-plug) and Hasbro has made a couple of Mindwipes lately (well, if you count the Kreon Mindswipe).

    But if not that, yeah, one of the Deceptiocon Targetmasters might fit the bill.

    Change the head and maybe Cloudburst. Of course I always wanted Cloudburst repainted from Chug Jetfire.

    Yep, Mindwipe. Generations Brainstorm is very G1 in its transformation and the closest headmaster to that G1 design is Mindwipe.

    I sort of want a Masterforce Metalhawk from it, but I know that's not gonna happen (new sword mold plus wierd colors)

    I was also thinking like, a ROTF Star Seeker jetfire? Like you know, when he was in his prime?

    Pharma maybe? IDK I don't read the comics

    I would be very surprised but happy to see him turned into Star Saber as a wide release Generations figure, but I'd be really UN-surprised but happy to see him turned into Star Saber for a TFCC/Botcon kinda thing.

    I don't know the Autobot Twin makes sense, the odd thing is after they talk about repaints being so important some of the molds they never touch again.

    I wouldn't mind a random Decepticon color scheme, not everything has to be homage.

    A Space Taxi color scheme wouldn't look half bad.

    Considering Chromedome is a car rather than a jet...I think that would be a harder remold.
