    Eh, same as most everyone else, really: Soundwave, Shockwave, Casseticons, Autobot Cars/Trucks/Vans, Minibots, '86 Movie cast, blah blah blah. Maybe a combiner or two.

    Wouldn't say no to a Darkwing... if only because Dreadwind looks so lonely.

    Honestly, my longshot pie-in-the-sky hope was always Powerglide... and against all rationality and logic, he actually IS being produced. Like, before Ironhide... and Soundwave... and countless other fan favorites. I don't know whether Hasbro has been monitoring my brainwaves or whether I've slipped into bizarro-universe or what, but I'm not complaining.

    So given that, I guess my new never-gonna-happen pick would be a basebot of some kind. Metroplex, Trypticon, Scorponok, Omega Supreme, even Fort Max.... doesn't really matter to me which one. I would just like to see a modern take on a character that transforms from a (well-articulated) robot into a battle station. And the Classics/Universe line could use a giant, Supreme-class figure to serve as a centerpiece.

    omega suprem would be so awesome, but if u think about it, the decepticons would be totaly dead. they have what, 4-5 figures if u count the two packs and plus minicons. so tripiticon would be make a nice touch too.

    but i swear, if they make a galvatron, that i've been hearing about, as a deluxe or an ultra, i will ban transformrs classics. a galvatron needs to be a voyager size, to stand along side with prime and megs. unless they make a rodimus prime alongside with him at the same size class. then that would be ok.


    hell, either way, im picking up everything in this line with a tranformers logo on the box. :p

    Springer(I know that makes him bigger than the other triple-changers, but I think it was a mistake to make them deluxes in the first place)
    Inferno

    Ultra Magnus
    Skorponok
    Sixshot

    This would be my dream line. It's doubtful that they will get made, but hey, worth a hope.

    It boils down to what most everyone wants.

    ALL G1 SHOW CHARACTERS.

    But if I had to choose a dream figure. A combiner that combines based off of an original combiner. I would go gaga over Devistator or Menasor. 1 voyager and 4 deluxes ( 6 deluxes for devi), heck even add the assessories, I am not particular on a combiner being self contained.

    Thanx

    Not much to seriously drool for as my fave 'bot is Prowl and my fave 'con is Skywarp.

    I'd say every G1 character pre movie, and then selectively afterwards. Honestly, I never went for all that pointy shit they put out. The ones with Cybertron alt modes just didn't measure up to the Cybertron alt modes from the original series. In that happy reality that I like to visit instead of my own, there was never such things. Granted it gave us Magnus and a select few others, but the story and the toys mostly nosedived from this point. So as long as it's pre movie G1 I'd be grateful, since we already got the characters I'd give a crap about from that movie on. Including using my Hasbro Megs as Galvatron once I get the Japanese Megs.

    I'm dying for a Nemesis Prime repaint. Of course I'd also love a yellow and blue repaint of the Optimus mold, a nod to the Diaclone Magnus and that limited yellow Magnus. I'd also love to see all the diff variations of Streaker and Sideswipe. Both Takara and TF versions. I live for the obscure. And I REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY never want to see another version of Wheelie ever again.

    Ummmmmmmmmmmmm actually, I'd like the Seekers for main release since I was stuck in Iraq when they came out, with no way of getting them until they cost more than my utilities, food, and auto bills cost per month. And a Sunstorm. PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Galvatron, Cyclonus, and Scourge.

    Another combiner would be awesome as well.

    Kup and Arcee, to nicely round out the movie crew.

    Maybe a more G1-stlyed Magnus too.

    Insecticons could be neat.

    A lot of the other stuff they've done pretty decent homages to already.

    Rodimus Prime would be pretty sweet though. :D

    Personally, I'd like to see Blurr, Kup and Arcee to round out the movie Autobots (they can make a new Magnus and Springer after they do other characters).

    Also, in that vein give me Cyclonus and Scourge.

    Soundwave would be nice and any combiner team members, Insecticons or Dinobots would be awesome too. Predacons anyone?

    My pipe dream right now would be a God Ginrai with God Bomber... so i guess Powermaster Prime with Apex Armor... though I'm not sure that could get done unless they added the leader class into Universe.

    Very upset with what I'm hearing. I don't want an Onslaught unless he's part of a Combiner, it ruins the chances of them bothering to do one in the future. And I REALLY want a good Bruticus. The Energon toy looked nothing like Bruticus.

    I've only seen Sunstreaker and I think the toy looks great. Some people don't like the skinny body, but they didn't like the way Mirage looked at first either. I think we're looking at a highly posable toy with this mold.
