    What upgrade sets besides G1/Movies/Classics-style figures would you like?

    I'd love a Beast Wars/Beast Era Upgrade set. Stuff like a gun for Transmetal Rattrap, chaingun/s for Rhinox (maybe even have it capable of storing in his chest compartment) an accurate gun for Inferno, maybe (even though I've made my own) and new Blackarachnia figure that looks like it could pass for a woman. Even though this deffinately would never, ever happen, I'd love to see a stasis pod. (even if you couldn't fit many characters in it) And if you want to go past just BW, what about a diagnostic drone?

    There's almost thirty years worth of TFs we could be taking advanage of.

    And since it's 3rd party they could probably do it in die-cast depending on who'd make it.

    Poseable legs for Transformers Armada Super Base Optimus Prime! It would be SWEET if they could make a trailer that still transforms into the legs for super mode...never mind the minicon base.

    I would buy one in every color he was originally available in.

    A trailer for Armada Bendy Prime that converts into both a battle station and a fully-articulated Super Mode. And comes with an upgraded Sparkplug to man it all.

    Make. It. Happen.

    I'd buy the shit out of an Armada-Not Scavenger.

    There is a shitload of stuff in the conics we can pull ideas from too

    A lot of these ideas sound nice to me.

    I'd be all over third-party Animated Constructicons (even if they don't combine) or Omega Supreme, but I'd totally go broke if they were made at the sizes I'd like to see.

    On a more modest note, how about some new-character heads (& accessories?) for the Animated repaint toys? A Bluestreak/Silverstreak head for Freeway Jazz, one of the Bumble-Bot crew for Elite Guard ' Bee, Sunstorm's new helmet, or even Chromia/Moonracer/Glyph heads for the CHMS green and blue Arcee KO's. You could go even further if repainting the whole figure was an option.

    Still want that BM Diagnostic drone.

    Would love to weapon up Universe Dinobot like he appeared in the BW season 2 ep, "Coming of the Fuzors."

    Spider drones for Tarantulus would be nice as well as some crystalline form energon also.

    Beast Wars:
    Rhinox - Head and gun replacement
    Waspinator - Longer, segmented wings
    Megatron (first T-Rex) - Replacement tongue/throat piece. Something to suggest a hand inside the tail claw

    Beast Machines:
    Megatron (dragon) - New head with removable helmet, ala Megabolt version
    Primal Prime - Botcon Wreckers head

    Armada:
    I second the vote for a transformable trailer for deluxe Optimus Prime
    TV-styled versions of the sword, shield, and requiem blaster

    Energon:
    Rodimus - Trailer/armor

    Revenge of the Fallen:
    Ravage (deluxe) - harder spines

    Beast Wars - Rhinox chain gun, TM Rattrap guns. To be honest BW was a pretty decent line and has almost everything it needed.

    Beast Machines - since we can't do full figures and I have the Unicron.com set, a diagnostic drone is a must...and Botanica.

    Armada- I had nothing but I like really like Flamepanthers idea of the solid forms of the Sword, Shield and Blaster.

    I'd like an Armada trailer replacement for Prime that actually gives him poseable legs.

    I'm really surprised that nobody has made the Beast Wars stuff on Shapeways. They would be so strait forward that it wouldn't take that much time for someone like process or Scramblecore to make pretty quickly. I would kill for a Rattrap gun.
