Kind of a dumb idea, but it would be cool if they made....

    Gen. Selects Toxitron. Since it is rumored we are getting a Black Convoy/RID2001 Scourge (who I personally use as G2 Scourge), we had multiple Gen. Selects repaints out of Siege SS and Earthrise CJ, is it too much to ask for a cancelled product come to life but remastered? We did get the Combat Hero Megatron. Also, if we do get a G2 accurate Voyager Megatron, I'd personally love a Reverse Convoy. I guess, though, if they did a Reverse Convoy, it'd have to be a retool to be Rebirth Megatron too.

    There was an art book a few years ago. I think it collected box art from 84-tlk? Not to sure. Been meaning to track it down

    I'd like to see a Commander Class "Watchtower". Watchtower is the Decepticon that disguise himself as the clock tower from the BTTFxTF Comics.

    Thunderclash heavily remolded from Kingdom Rodimus, minus the trailer and with the vehicle mode turned into a Cybertronian truck sort of thing that looks both fast and powerful (in the vein of T30 Springer's car mode, or War Within Optimus Prime).

    Dropkick with a new head as G1 Rotorstorm, Machine Wars Sandstorm and Universe Whirl. The head would be G1 style, not movie styled.

    I'll preface this by saying I like Legacy Bulkhead pretty well, but I think he could've been pretty much perfect if they could've somehow brought back the Universe 2.0 Inferno mold and given that an extensive reshell, making his truck mode look like this, but with 6 wheels:
    [​IMG]
    and giving him Animated and Prime-inspired details for his robot mode limbs, weapon, and head, but keeping the same transformation and proportions. The mold has bigger arms and shoulders with kibble that somewhat resembles his Animated backpack, and I think those slight changes to his build in robot mode would be a huge improvement. With some tweaking to the engineering and a further reshelling, it could still work well as Beast Hunters Prime too.

    I'd like some new transformers characters that turn into mythical creatures, sure we've had a couple dragons over the years but it would be neat to get a transformer that turns into a gryphon or a Phoenix, or maybe a Decepticon that turns into a Manticore, theres so many mythical beasts that would make for some killer TF toys.

    Giant simple Pretender Shells (at least 12" tall).
    accompanied by a wave of RED figures of the inner robots that can fit inside.

    ----

    Core class combiners based on the exclusive characters Kre-O combiners.

    Half of the 10 people total who buy RED figures would buy that

    Well I would point this much out - If no one buys them why have the sold out a lot of places ?

    But you are right that selling thems seems like a heck of a risk, as I know where I can get them by the case at wholesale price - but I honestly wouldn't be confident that I'd ever be able to shift the remains of a case of Cheetors. Arcee - more that likely would sell as she fills that gap I mentioned where is where there was something not quite right about the Transforming version.

    They can be actually a bit of a chore to find - I wonder why Pulse UK doesn't stock them past wave one ?
    I would actually rather like to get the rest of them - now I know that there isn't anything wrong with them and the moaners were just being little entitled princesses about them.

    Movie Optimus Maximus (or Ultra Prime); the combined form of movie Optimus Prime, Bumblebee, Jazz, Ironhide and Ratchet with the movie aesthetic but is compatible with Combiner Wars toys.

    An alternative defensor team made up of inferno, red alert, ratchet, prowl (animated inspired bike mode and/or classic datsun mode), and whirl (rescue bots academy and/or g1). Wouldn't even need to combine, I kinda just want all those characters in a gift set.

    Take the Legacy philosophy of taking movie characters out of their universe and crossing it over with the WFC aesthetic. Some remold examples:

    - DOTM Megatron from Laser Prime with remolded chest, shins, forearms, head, gun and grill.

    - TLK Onslaught from Bulkhead, remolded chest and tarp section that is replaced with a tow hook that transforms into a gun, T30 Hoist style.

    - Heavy remold of SS Jazz into Drift.

    Juicier things would be a new mold Leader Blackout, new mold Sideswipe with new arm blades, blocky Dorito Starscream. Imagine an Ironhide that's a huge black pickup with the grill for the chest and big guns, but less "scrapyard." Or funny looking Hightower but without the shard look.

    I wish seige prime mold was used for ultra Magnus instead. Trailer turns into armor the same but with a not garbage core robot. That asthetic in white and blue. Awsome

    Yeah, it's a much better looking Cybertronian truck mode than what Siege Magnus got and it'd be a nice way to keep him looking similar to ER Prime but still differentiated without just looking like a severely cheapened, simplified version of him. And the Siege Prime mold is simpler than ER Prime so maybe that'd be easier budget-wise than using the ER mold (although I imagine it'd still have had to be Commander for the trailer/armor to be done well).

    minibot combiner. 5 obscure-ish minibots combining into a leader-size gestalt would be great. i'm thinking Rook, Bumper, Tap-out, glyph, and 1 other, maybe a micromaster or another redeco i forgot about

    *messes around with classics nerf megatron for a day*

    ...I don't actually like the concept of hand canon megatron, but this thing could have been a neat laser tag blaster. The body targets would have to be special tho, where if you have an autobot target it wouldn't register a hit from an autobot blaster, and then a decepticon target could be hit by a decepticon blaster because starscream.
