    Ok. So I was thinking. WHY havent they made some of these things as Transformers? Hell they didnt even make any gobots into these, yet they remain, imo, the 5 greatest Alt.modes that were never produced...

    5.) Tower/Building - Ok. I know what your thinking: "But Ihsan, we had Metroplex, Fort.Max, ect." Well, I dont know about ya'll , but unless you were useing them for Micromasters or Minicars, these were not cities. Anyhow, Im talking about a Transformer that turns into one.Giant. Building. Ever seen the movie "BIG"? What happend to Tom Hanks' lost Transformer? That mo' fo' was AWESOME! Collect enough, and THATS how you build a REAL TF's city.

    4.) Bus - At first I actually thought this was done. But nope. In 25 years we never had an actual freaking cheesewagon. Why? Its rediculious you say? How about a Girraffe? a rabbit? Id say a bus is cooler than those. Call me crazy. Think about Animated. What would be cooler than going to the "Autobot Academy" in a school bus?

    3.) Battering Ram - Whats that you say? Why use a battering ram when you are a transformer? Well by that logic TF's useing swords doesnt make much sense either...cause you know...they have GUNS. Besides, it would be neat, so shut up. :) 

    2.) Ghost - I think this would be really cool. It would certainly give new meaning to the word "Terrorcons". These guys could have a "cloaking-like" effect in the show. Think about the old Ghostbusters toys. There were some really cool goasts in there, why not makem Transform?

    1.) Drum set/kit - We already have a guitar dudes. Now what would be cooler than seeing a Decepticon Transform into a drum? Well seeing another con' bashing on the drum, thats what. :) 

    Opinions?

    Because the TARDIS is an iconic vehicle with over 40 years of history, whereas Bill And Ted starred Keanu "Talent Void" Reeves?
