    here's a suggestion... chrome weapons for MP figures. it can be generic weapons or character especific weapons but they have to be chromed.

    i remember fondly of G1 and its chrome (from Inferno to the cassettes), hell, even G2!! it's a big part of the mythos and i believe all (or most) mps should have some chrome.

    i would love seeing a nice shiny gun on sideswipe or smokescreen, or even a shoulder replacement for smokescreen.

    anyway...my humble suggestion for any caring company :)

    I second this and third it and forth it. Sky Lynx would be an amazing character for a 3P to tackle, especially since I don't see TT/Has ever releasing him other then the terrible BH version.

    I was checking my list of 1984-1986 characters not covered or proposed by CHUG/3rd Parties:

    Sky Lynx
    Pipes (MP Only, sorry the iGear recolor doesn't cut it)
    The Omnibots
    Oh, those horrid Powerdashers.

    Venom
    Trypticon

    Let's see some action!

    Fansproject Lost-Exo Realm 07 Empyrean( sky) or Caracal (lynx), it so gonna happen, they are already doing the dinobots, skylynx would be the next logical choice for a lost realm type of character!! ..

    Sky Lynx, Omnibots (some company should just re-shell Generations Wheeljack, Universe Sideswipe and Universe Prowl to the appropriate vehicles), Powerdashers (l kinda interpret them as G1 minicons so I'd be fine if they re-interpreted them to combine like the Generations Mminicon team), FOC styled Bombshell & Shrapnel and all four Deluxe Insections, Duo-Cons and Triggermasters...

    I would like to see 3p companies stop making stuff for at least half a year, let us all catch up on buying what's already out.

    Jeez...

    Chrome guns does sound nice, but I'm at the budget breaking point already.

    I would just love to see one of these 3P's get big enough to get a little priority on factory time, and really start churning out the figures. Give me one good Fansproject figure a month, every month and I'll be good. :)

    X-Transbots Stax is an MP Pipes. Certainly looks the part for me!

    Decepticon Triple Changers!!!

    We've pretty much got the whole pre- '86 movie crew covered, except for these guys. And throw in Octane as well.

    Oh, and a new Soundwave, since Sonicron doesn't scale that well with Hegemon and iGear's Raptors.

    I don't mind silver or gold paint for weapons...both paint and chrome have issues, but are better than unpainted. One of my least favorite parts of mp sideswipe is the unpainted, bland white shoulder launcher. I expect that from a $10 figure at target, but not a masterpiece. I really wish weapons would get a little more thought put into them in general. Would love to see some lights details, ash burn on the muzzles, etc.

    Would love for a 3p company to make mp10's axe with a light up feature. Flame for grimlock and scoria with an led to give it some oomf. This is a really good thread for asking for little things... I think asking for actual bots is overdone, but a thread for small "add ons" would be awesome, and quick $ makers for the entrepreneur.

    Indeed as Sky Lynx was unique and weird character....both full of himself and with a British accent why wouldn't we want an updated version of the character. Not a armada mini-con or a re-colored BH figure....bring on Commander Modesty!!!

    Also would like to see:

    Trypticon: can be g1 inspired or WOC version
    Duo-cons: those guys need an update
    Terrorcons: like to see MMC or TFC tackle these guys
    Upgrade kit for Beast Hunters Leader class Preadaking: tail, head (both for robot and dragon), neck articulation, and show accurate weapons. Or just redesign the character....
    Trainbots: come on trains....
    Voyager Astrotrain: to go with generations Blitzwing
    Monsterbots: because why not
    MP Megatron to go with MP-10

    Voyager BW Dinobot and Transmetal 2 Dinobot: want a better version of this awesome character....wouldn't it be interesting if this was the mysterious character in FP Dinobot line....?
