I suggest you check again, because literally everything you said is flat wrong.

 

Bet Skywarp will be an online exclusive, and then Thundercracker will only be available once every full moon at 3:30pm for 2 seconds.

 

Deluxe:
-Beast Machines Thrust (new mold, includes a base so he can stand up in robot mode and preferably features a good, not-halfassed legged robot mode in addition to the wheeled one)
-Armada Wheeljack (ideally a reshell of Siege Sideswipe using the gull-wing engineering from Gigawatt, but could work as just a repaint with new weapons)
-Swindle (a hybrid of his G1 and Animated designs, don't care if it combines with anything as long as it's a good figure on its own, he's probably the only new Combaticon I'd buy)
-G1 Devcon (heavy remold of SS86 Blurr)
-Earth mode Hound (turns into a WW2-era jeep, could be Siege remold or new mold)

Voyager:
-Beast Machines Jetstorm (preferably a new mold but could maybe work as an extensive remold of either Kingdom Cyclonus or Legacy Armada Starscream; comes with a base for hover mode and has a good legged robot mode as well)
-Drift ('Deluxe+' like SS86 Hot Rod; comes with several swords and an effect part or two; based on his Cybertronian form; could be repainted later on as Deadlock)
-Windblade (would look similar to her T30 figure, but engineered better so that she can balance properly in robot mode)
-Lockdown (Deluxe-sized 70s muscle car that turns into a large Voyager-height robot; mostly based on his Animated and IDW designs, but would include a few nods to AoE as well and comes with several weapons and a helmet/mask)
-Cybertron Vector Prime (basically just a modern update to his original figure)
-Alpha Trion (remold of Vector Prime)
-Slipstream (moderately heavy remold of either ER Starscream or the new Windblade; would look like a CHUGified Animated Seeker)
-Blaster (heavily remolded from Siege Soundwave based on his Cybertronian design in Spotlight: Blaster)

Leader:
-Jetfire (new mold, possibly sharing engineering with Collaborative Maverick, looking as much like his Valkyrie design as possible, with removable armor, booster engines, and mask/helmet; would later be repainted minus the removable parts as G2 Jetfire and Hooligan; robot mode could look basically like the T30 one but without the faux chest or huge wings behind his shoulders and with a nicer booster backpack, or alternatively it could just be an update to the Classics/Stormbringer design with better articulation, or a fully fleshed out take on his Cyberverse design, I don't really care as long as it has the general Valkyrie shape in jet mode and a good robot mode)
-Beast Machines Tankor (new mold)
-Bludgeon (new mold, basically an update to the ROTF figure with better articulation and no weird melty rubber; turns into a tank and has a robot mode based on the Pretender shell)
-Thunderwing (new mold inspired by his Stormbringer design, with a robot mode based on the Pretender shell and a Cybertronian jet mode)
-Megatron (finally a CHUG Megatron that won't cut corners and is worthy of standing across from ER Prime; basically a slightly larger, much more refined version of Siege Megatron with a chest more like ER, better proportions and articulation, filled gaps, and more accessories; still turns into a Cybertronian tank, but this time one based on his War Within and early IDW designs, with treads instead of hover-vents and a plow in front)
-Lugnut (new mold based on the HFTD figure but larger, better balanced and articulated in robot mode, and colored purple and teal like in Animated; could later be heavily remolded into a CHUG Blackout)

 

It’s odd to have a wish list thread when we already know virtually all of the line for next year.

 

(emphasis mine) You should learn the meaning of the word "literally" before using it:

Unless you're trying to tell me that my own intentions and opinion are also "literally . . . flat wrong"

Here's something to chew on: if Hasbro's marketing data indicated significant or even meaningful demand for TFA figures... they would make TFA figures. Instead they make Movieverse\Knightverse-based and Sunbow G1-based figures. Also, a decent amount of BW and the very rare and occasional TFP and Armada stuff. I get that you're emotional about this, but hey, if TFA were popular then all the TFA fans wouldn't be seething for figures because they'd get made, no? Not even 3P appears to be doing them. Why is that? Maybe you can explain, but I warn you that if it requires charts, diagrams, and a 20 minute Youtube video to explain you're gonna lose me very quickly. The designs don't look very good to me, so I'm not surprised at the apparent lack of popularity. But maybe your evidence to the contrary will surprise me.

 

For sure, I want a Blaster. I've never had any version of the character (other than the mini boombox that came with MP Tracks), and I want him to duel with Soundwave. And for sure, I want a new Blitzwing to go along with Siege Astrotrain and TR Octane. Those two would go a long way to helping finish off my G1 collection. I'm sure there's more I haven't thought of, but those two are at the top of my list.

Other than that, I'm open to just about anything. I'd like some more variety beyond just G1. Hopefully, we get more Predacons from Beast Wars to complete the original line up. I'd certainly like to see more updated Armada, Energon, and Cybertron figures.

It might be a longshot, but I'd love, love an update Airachnid. Her original toy is such an insult to a great character. Her design was beautiful in its creepiness. Ideally, I hope for a voyager or even leader class, so they can nail all three of her modes, especially that half spider mode: it was my favorite.

At this point, I'd take a 3p Airachnid as long as it was done well.

 

Cosmos is on the way in that exclusive line so I really hope Hasbro keep giving us more of these deluxe minibots.

Would love a Powerglide, Seaspray and Beachcomber to go with Kingdom Warpath.

And I’d kill for a definitive Windcharger, Brawn and Gears.

And there’s easy repaint potential as well for Tailgate, Outback and Swerve. Seems like a no-brainer.

 

mate, its a wishlist thread. There's no reason to argue over which franchise would sell better/has more demand.

 

Commander Class Broadside would be nice. basically my list is the 1984-1986 linep that WFC and Studio Series never got to.

 

More G1 Minibots done as deluxes

G1 Target Masters

 

I'm in the pro-Legends (Core) scale camp in regards to the Minibots. I think the Legends scale figures like Beachcomber, Brawn, Seaspray, Windcharger, etc. were perfect as Legends figures.

You came to a Wishlist thread and the first thing you did was disparage someone else's personal desire. So... yes, your own intentions and opinions are "literally flat wrong."

Hasbro's data about how well TFA figures sell is skewed. They released the show the day after Christmas in 2007, so right when Bayverse figures were going to be in highest demand, meaning stores didn't want to carry any new toys for months. On top of that Hasbro decided to cancel Animated (right in the middle of the 4th season's production) the same year that Revenge of the Fallen released. It was their own poor decision-making that led them to believe Animated was a flop.

Once again, this coming from the guy who came into a Wishlist thread just to throw shade on what other people want.

Because the very first 3rd Party TFA figures were abject failures? I kid you not, instead of toys of big-name characters who didn't have them yet - like Slipstream or the Constructicons - the company which took the first foray into 3P Animated decided the best foot forward would be a pair of throwaway, background cameo characters who had roughly four seconds of screen time, total. Said cameos being Huffer and Pipes, whose Animated incarnations closely resembled Mario and Luigi of Super Mario Bros fame. Nobody wanted to buy either figure, so the utter lack of demand scared off the rest of 3P.

 

No, the first thing I did was post my own wish list. It's almost all Geewunner stuff. Disgusting, I know!! I'm a shameless whore, I admit it.

Your Legacy/Evolution Wishlists

But okay, I get your point, we should stop this sorta-argument before we get the thread locked and have our hands smacked.

I do appreciate your explanations as they are logical and it does help me understand where my own perceptions on the matter may have come from. I apologize if I stepped on your dreams, I'll try to cut back on doing that sort of thing.

 

Thank you. The reason I sound rather emotional is because TFA gets a lot of unnecessary hate. On top of that it's rather triggering to see newer shows, like Prime, get anniversary celebrations first. Then again, I'm sure the RID'01 and Unicron Trilogy fans are equally salty that Hasbro seems to forget they exist, too.
