    The Combiners and the Tians 100%

    Outside of a few, most of them are reaching anywhere from £200-£400 on the aftermarket forcing people into buying cheap £30 KO's. We already know Devsator and Abominus are happening though Amazon and Selects. Feel we should get the rest as well.

    The Targetmasters and the Monsterbots could do with it as well.

    I'd like to see Hasbro do reissues of all the figures that have Gold Plastic Syndrome.
    G2 Electro, Transmetal Megatron, Masterforce Black Zarak, BW Neo Randy, etc.

    100% agree with this depending if the molds are still available for said figures and are feasible to produce. Out of all those, I would like to see a BW 2 pack with TM Megatron vs. BW Grimlock with non-GPS plastic. They could call it Transformers: Gold Classics.

    I would like to see Hasbro also release some of the harder to find releases as of late as well. I think TR Twintwist/Top Spin and TR Windblade vs. Misfire 2 packs would be awesome for those that didn't find them.

    Seriously? I thought there was a mode you needed to remove the Headmaster for.

    *checks Emgo review*

    Huh...just needed to be put in the wolf mode head to make it not hollow....that's awesome! Just ordered the Legends one as I still hate stickers, but thanks for the heads up!

    UPDATE: Glad to see the results so far for the first poll. More want Gift sets and I can respect that just fine. Now for Power of the Prime's reissues:

    -Anything BUT the Elita combiner. Need Dreadwind, Blackwing, Battleslash and Roadtrap. AKA the good bits, Cindersaur would be a great addition and of course the Mini-bots

    Gonna go ahead and give you all my list of rereleases

    Prime Wars:

    -Combiner Wars:

    Stunticons

    Combatacons

    (I got Motormaster and Onslaught but no partners for them)

    Titans return

    -Topspin and Twintwist (I'm slowly building a Wreckers collection so of course I'm gonna need a badass pair of gun totin Autobot twins)

    -Krok (building the Scavengers, need to see the most prolific Action Master come back in full force)

    -Misfire (BIG DEFINITE)

    Power of the Primes

    -Dreadwind

    -Blackwing

    I missed out on these two and it'd be great to get them in retro style packaging and maybe proper connections for "Dread-Wing"

    WFC Trilogy

    -Apeface (Siege)

    -Ironhide

    -Prowl

    -Ratchet

    WILL hold off the rest till Kingdom drops its full set

    I'd like to see most of the Prime Wars legends get reissued, especially since the aftermarket is flooded with KOs. They could be online-exclusive multipacks (e.g. a Minibots pack with Powerglide, Seaspray, and Brawn).

    Well I would love if Hasbro actually did reissues some of the Combiner Wars line, like Slingshot, Shutter Blast-Off, Wildrider, and Deluxe Groove just name for few, but also reissues the characters from Unite Warriors get released in the US for the first time ever, plus for WFC reissues just back some Siege Seekers, Earthrise Prowl, Earthrise Ironhide, Earthrise Ratchet, Earthrise Seekers as standard releases.

    Welp Overlord is sold out now from BBTS...should've grabbed him when I had the chance. Bet they won't do the two-pack and do the combination of Overlord from the Takara comics. Time to go ahead and add Overlord to "characters reissued" I want, even if he a bit G1 lookin.

    EDIT: Just for clarity sake I preferred the TR colors for how IDW inspired they felt. I'm not trying to ding the G1 look from Masterforce. Its just a BIT too blue for my appetite.
