    That would work! If you wanted to get even more Star Trek referencing he could be called Gallileo like the original Shuttlecraft ^^

    That would work well (sorry, replied to the wrong post before)

    ^ Doing speculation the right way.

    (Deluxe, pls.)

    (And a new Galvatron, and Gears/Swerve.)

    I’m waiting for the day hastak sells out and makes a titan class bumblebee

    Until then, I hope we eventually slapdash and joyride to go with getaway, dreadwind and darkwing

    I mean, let’s see:

    Optimus as Commander class without a trailer and Bumblebee as Leader class would be in robot mode (but not vehicle mode) scale with G.I.Joes.

    To get vehicle mode scale, you WOULD need short Titan Optimus and a short Commander Bumblebee.

    I am vaguely surprised with the triple sized MP Optimus KO (which is big enough for Marvel Legends) that nobody has triple sized TR figures as the cockpits would seat G.I.Joes. (MPs are less likely to have usable seats.)

    I would be down for a commander class Optimus + trailer. Trailer is NOT armor but is a weapons platform, mobile attack base. Have the trailer split in half and form a pair of shielded gun turrets. Do something creative HasTak!

    I mildly miss an old school, simple, original G1 style trailer. I’m looking at the released Siege Autobot and can imagine them posed behind a converted trailer/attack base.

    I really doubt we’ll see anything like this in the near future but maybe once WFC wraps up and it can happen in

    What if instead of a prime, the trailer came with a transformable weaponizer roller?
    also if we ever do get a siege trailer I hope not just prime can haul it. Maybe if we get a siege huffer it would be cool if he could haul this hypothetical trailer

    Honestly? Leader.

    I personally hope that lazy redecos/retools get remade as well. Joyride was poor and an inaccurate representation of the character, same with Dreadwind & Darkwing. With Siege's heavy slant into G1 accuracy, I don't think proper Powermasters are off the table.

    Edit: Spelled "lazy" wrong because groggy.

    Voyager simply because only his toy was small not his tv show design.

    Airazor needs a deluxe

    Trantulas needs a new toy badly, also think it would be great to see a transmetal 2 Megatron to go with potp optimusprime

    Yeah, hopefully the Greenlight Pre-Order kerfuffle on Amazon means she's close to dropping, perhaps during SDCC, and we might get the more concrete deets on Lancer/Orthia's fifth, fings crossed!

    I should forget about that jazz and prowl speculation and maybe try something else like trailbreaker from Ironhide and ratchet.

    I want to see a Bayformer deco on Ironhide. With his trademark cannons. Maybe it could be a depiction of young G1 Ironhide or something, when he was naive and reckless.

    Since G1 Prime got a Unicron Trilogy homage body and Barricade has a Bayformer body, I can't see why not.

    if they are going for g1 bot mode accuracy that wont happen. sunstreakers front end turns into his feet not his chest and the sideswipe car canopy is in the wrong orientation for sunstreaker

    There's so much scope for mold reuse in this list of missing figures. Jets, buggys, helicopters... If Hasbro release a nice set in the main WFC line, they'd have fuel for Generations Selects for a long time.

    I think a WFC Siege version of Movie Blackout would be cool.

    That would be neat.

    I also had a thought in general for bringing in alternate versions of characters into G1 style that it would work especially well for characters who in G1 were just another recolour. Like the previously discussed idea of having a female Slipstream with a new deluxe seeker mold rather than yet another recoloured Starscream. Especially as with the seekers there's so many of the buggers ><
    Ok just rechecking I see there wasn't a G1 Seeker called Slipstream but my point still stands and if I could think of another example I'd put it here x)
