I think Landshark is Ok he's sort of the Elite Guard Bulkhead I suppose.
I would have found Wingsaber more useful though.

 

Cybertron Wingsaber has a 'Vanguard Team' logo on him - which is pretty much an Elite Guard logo...

And I think he'd look good in Blue or red.

Blue would be good as if you used him with Cybertron 'Galaxy Force' Optimus Prime then since he lacks any blue it would add the blue back to an Optimus Combined mode, as well as looking a little like a Cobra Rattler. (It could also have Universe Red/blue Lio Prime as a limb accessory)

Red would be good it would be suggestive of Powerglide or Magneta even could also suggest Fireflight (legends type).

Though if not for the chest logo I'd rather like that Cybertron Wingsaber was made as a Decepticon and sold alongside a Menasor Optimus repaint... perhaps such an evil one could be silver and black or even purple (like G1 Menasors feet and fists).
And could also combine with Botcon Razorclaw.

Another idea that just occured to me is that If Hotzone (Hotspot) was made out of Cybertron Optimus Prime's mold - then a repaint of Cybertron Wingsaber could be made - which would be yet another white one - but this time accented in red with the limb color and could be Hothouse. (It would look quite similar to Universe Powerglide).
That might even look quite nice with the pre-existing White Lio Prime.


As for Energon Optimus *with mouth mold* could be renamed Thunderclash - I think they could belatedly release his long missing Orange & Black Repaint and sell it with a Blue or red, or silver or yellow Wingsaber repaint.. so that the whole combination would complement with Energon Omega Sentinel's general colors.

Such a toy could even be packaged to complement Powercore Combiners and like a leader for them... perhaps with a Nemesis Prime / Menasor figure using another different Optimus as the opposing Decepticon leader.
Both such ideas would make good thematic boxed giftsets.

Though I've long personally wanted an Evil Leader Optimus (Scourge- like the model kit) toys with WingSaber repaint (that matches that obscure Japanese PVC).

I can see them making a cracking Toys R Us exclusive pair.
I guess they could get away with selling them as a pair in a boxed set in robot mode.
But the box would be huge - as the trailer would take up a lot of space too.

I'd just as much like an Armada Nemesis Superbase Prime as well and an Evil Overload (as The Fallen) - partly as the character already exists in Fiction and if he was resurrected - it's not unreasonable to asume he'd gain a trailer.... and they could make a couple of small remolds... a new Minicon (sideways maybe) or just a Black Bumblebee and to remold the shoulder logos on the Overload mold and give Nemesis a new head and a sword.

I think that would make a great 'Generations' set.
I guess if TRU would take that or not would depend on how well RID Scourge sold.

 

Hah, that mold is on my list of "never want to see again ever" molds. I finally bought that toy when it was at 50% off, and still felt like I paid too much after opening it.

 

I'd still love the Energon Prime mold to be used to make a full size Grand Scourge / Nemesis Prime.

 

It doesnt even need new head. It already is a good match for Thunderclash, but with a peaked visor, which in the comic could have been shown being taken off like Megatrons armour in 06.

 

I like that mold especially the Superlink version with the better colors and the chrome.

I'm still am moaping about not getting the other 4 drones they mentioned but never made for Optimus.

 

As far as I remember Streewhite was white.

Despite that I think the Red Alert mold would have been more fitting as it fits better with Streetwise's robot mode and transformation.

A Red Alert repainted as G1 Streetwise would be interesting.

 

In G1, not in G2. The theme of the set is G2.

Red Alert vs. Prowl mold... eh... debatable opinion, everyone would have their own preferences. But I'd guess one factor in the decision to use the Prowl mold is that FP's already using the Lambo mold for Punch/Counterpunch and G2 Breakdown... might be nice to throw in a little bit of variety.

They're not trying to make G1 Streetwise. They're making G2 Streetwise.

Beyond that... repainting white into white would be interesting? Not in my opinion. Though Streetstar here still has the issue of looking at lot like U2 Silverstreak himself.
