    MP Megatron, Galvatron (With cannon sound and lights), Hot Rod (With G1 Quintessson), or BW Dinobot would all be fantastic, IMHO.

    An updated Fort/Grand/Brave Maximus would be a nice sendoff as well.

    An Alternators Combiner of the Stunticons, same scale as current Alts.

    Alternate: Hasbro Commemorative Series reissue of G1 Fortress Maximus, at an affordable price point...like $50-60 max (no pun intended). Of all the TFs I'd like to own, that's the one I most want for my collection. But I refuse to pay $400 even for a loose one.

    Wouldn't mind the same kind of reisue for Shockwave either.

    Masterpiece is in the Supereme scale. It was more expensive than say Cyb. Starscream due to it being made of Diecast and it coming with all of the extras it did.

    And if you would want to classify Mp as it's own scale, then the repaint being offered later this year would still allow it.

    Thread creator or not, no fair smacking around a thread of most likely unrealistic fantasy with limitations. Besides, if it's in one box, it's one figure. At least that's Hasbro's stand on many Transformers items.

    I like the ideas of a 'Masterpiece' Megatron or Grimlock, or Alternator Bumblebee from the published design, but I like:

    Soundwave (not necessarily 'Masterpiece' size) as casette/audio player, with a built-in MP3 player, and a fleet of casettes included (don't consider them extra figures - consider them accessories, like a companion Minicon), each capable of holding a flash memory card which would plug into the player when the casette in inserted in SW.

    I wasn't really trying to be unfair per say, I was just putting the question to everyone here as it was put to me. I mean, there have been and will be threads made around this theme, and everyone is entitled to desire whatever they want.

    I was only wanting to discuss some of the choices that have been made. (I've had that question about a MP Megatron for some time now)

    Hasbro should pay that guy who built a custom MP Megatron to mass produce!

    the Last Autobot is pretty darn close to Vector Prime.

    I'd go for an alternator scale Starscream. meaning a 1:24 scale f14 or some other jet...

    Yeah, I got to agree with the choice of G1 Megatron. If his transformation is an oversized gun, all the better because he would be mistaken for a real gun! My second choice would be G1 Galvatron!

    That would be enourmous. You'd have to park it in your garage.

    Mine would be a new G1 Prime. He'd be the first, since the original toy to have an alt mode that actually looks like a real truck.

    Agreed. Some of the newer Prime's are good toys, but i dislike the unrealistic alt modes. Nor do I care for Firetruck Prime. When I see firetruck, I think of Inferno. My design would be something to the effect of MP, RM, and HBS-02. Close to show accurate bot mode, but with more attention on the alt mode as opposed to it just being an afterthought. Something realistic too.

    Though I suppose the new G1 Classic Prime could very well be that dream toy..

    I like the MP Grimlock idea as well!:D  MP Galvatron or an upgraded Trypticon (with weapons up the wazoo) or one that has unlimited interaction with minicons would be nice also for me, personally.

    I hope so. I'm getting tired of mutant windshields.

    I'd want either the Alternators Jazz prototype made (the Porsche) or Alternators Bumblebee (from the New beetle concept art).

    Tough one

    This is a toughy...

    3 ideas

    1st a cartoon acurate headmaster Arcee (always wanted one)

    2nd A larger scale more detailed Fort Max Head Master (Iknow this is out of the details relegated for this task.)

    3rd all 13 original transformers (the fallen, vector prime, prima etc..) Since unicron has been releases in three continutites, Armada, Energon and Cybertron and Primus has made his debut in cybertron. It would only be fitting to me to release a 13 figure giftset of all the original transformers created by primus to guide cybertron and help defeat the chaos bringer. This would bring adequate closuer to the series.

    GR:

    Big, but not enormous. An F15 is about 2ft 7in long
    in 1:24 scale, just right for hanging on the ceiling.
    An Alternator Broadside, now...he'd be the garage
    filler. About 50' long in 1:24 scale, if my calcule are
    correct, yesss.

    I'd like a specially designed rendering of the first transformer with a 'rising from the flesh of Primus' display stand. :) 

    So that's why you've had me drawing this pic.
