    Now that they've announced Reflector, we are close to completing the Season1 Decepticons so I think the Insecticons and Constructions would be logical and popular choices.

    I am a little surprised by their choice of Perceptor though. I can see lots of people asking for other characters like Megatron, Jazz and Sunstreaker in particular but haven't seen too many asking for Perceptor. Wonder why they chose him?

    They are trying to pick choices others including Takara might not being doing right away.
    They've had to cancel a few plans because similar or official ones were coming out.

    Sure, I can understand that line of thinking but Perceptor? Is anyone out there honestly a fan of Perceptor???

    It seems very unlikely that Takara is going to tackle Jazz, Trailbreaker, Hound , Sunstreaker or the Insecticons anytime soon and I bet they'd be more popular than Perceptor.

    Kickback
    Shrapnel
    Bombshell

    I WANT INSECTICONS!!!!!!!

    Please no more seekers. Why do sunstreaker and compete with another company when you can do preceptor and not compete. Insecticons would be stellar

    Not even the Coneheads? I would certainly take them.

    I would like to see them take on some G1 minibots. I know badcube are doing them, but they seem off to me and I'm sure Fanstoys would knock them out of the park.

    If they make the Constructicons should they combine or should they be stand alone figures

    It's gonna be Blaster and the Triple Changers, I have a good feeling about it.

    That said, I now prefer the Insecticons, cause they go better with my Dino / Predacons theme ;) 

    Omega Supreme would be awesome, but I just realistically cant fit it in if it is MP Scale, eventhough I would really love one.

    Agreed. I stopped in to post my opinion and these were on my mind. It should be the Constructicons or the Combaticons (I know, we've had a bit of overload with the Warbotron figs, but you can never have enough Combaticons IMO). Either way, it needs to be a Decepticon....and a combiner. :lol

    I was always hoping to get a Trailbreaker and Hoist

    Head-Robots really dropped the ball by not releasing "Big Road"

    That's not a bad idea. I see them as very unlikely anytime in the near future from Takara. If ever.
    I'll throw in Inferno then, because I always liked his look.

    Decepticon triple-changers, Insecticons. They did tease Omega Supreme and I remember Dalianjj saying they could make a 20"+ omega to retail at $500 if every produced scoria was bought.
