So by this time in CW we were already getting mold fatigue. What repaints are you surprised we haven't gotten yet

 

Eject and Frenzy... and a red Bumblebee  

 

Shockwave and Star Saber from Galvatron mold.

Cliffjumper from Bee

Outback from Brawn

 

While I'm not surprised, I would have liked to see the following, changing heads where necessary:

Flywheels and Overcharge from Blitzwing
Battletrap and Spinister from Highbrow
Gatoraider from Skullcruncher
Bugbite from Bumblebee
Tankor from Hardhead
Inner bot Thunderwing from Sentinel Prime with the Nucleon head
Powertrain and Ironworks from G2 Laser Prime
Bombburst from Misfire
Whisper from Astrorain

 

Not necessarily surprised, but I'd have thougt a 'full body' nightbeat from hotrod would be a thing. Outback I'm hoping we get, but that'll be a (n unpleasant) surprise if not!

 

BW Megatron from Skullsmasher.
BW Optimus Primal from Mindwipe.
Wolfang from Wolfwire.

Obsidian from Highbrow.
Tankor from Hardhead.

Thundertron from Alpha Trion.

BW Dinobot & Grimlock from Clobber.
BW Ironhide from Shuffler.
Rhinox from Ramhorn.
BW Silverbolt from Fangry.

And the inevitable Predaking into an updated BW Magnaboss.

 

Twincast and SoundBlaster. Seemed like obnoxiously low hanging fruit. Credit to Hasbro for resisting.

 

Not surprised, but disappointed: Nightstalker from Sawback. Easy to do, and easy to repurpose as Ravage.

 

Not really much point in repainting Blaster/Soundwave when you've already got them from the same mold.

 

As silly as this might sound, when I first saw images of Kup I immediately thought that could work as Minimus Ambus's minesweeper mode from the comics.

 

vector prime from alpha trion
shockwave and grimlock from galvatron
armada sideways from groove...

i know there are more.....

 

I'm still saying Hasbro at some point will take Kup and Titanmaster Apex and give us Orion Pax.

 

Cyclonus from Triggerhappy
Vector Prime from Alpha Trion

 

Frenzy from Rumble

 

Barricade + Frenzy from Chromedome.

 

Soundblaster & Twincast would be fine for store exclusives (call them "G2" versions of Soundwave & Blaster if worried about name confusion since stores aren't real familiar with Japan-only names).

Anyhow, we definitely need Frenzy. Call it "cartoon Rumble" if they must, but he should happen given his prominence in the cartoon. Why Hasbro opted to make the red humanoid tape so early and leave the two blue-ish humanoid tapes to seemingly come back to back, doesn't make much sense. Eject could happen as well, and a more Steeljaw-colored Stripes.

We definitely need something on the Arcee front, more than just a head. A repaint of Chromedome (or Blurr) would be better than nothing, and hit the G1 toy concept. Also need either Nemesis Prime/RiD2001 Scourge (rumored to be coming as a Japanese convention exclusive) or Toxitron out of the Voyager Optimus mold.

I'd like to see:

Flywheels/Skytread from Blitzwing
Diaclone Blitwzwing/Overcharge from Blitzwing
Eject from Rewind
Ransack from Kickback
Devcon from Scourge
Alligator Optimus Prime from Skullsmasher
Rotorstorm from Highbrow
Carnivac from Wolfwire
Orion Pax from Kup
Magnificus from Perceptor
G1 Toy colors Galvatron
Micromaster Flattop from Broadsides
Grand Maximus from Fortress Maximus
BWII Gigastrom from Trypticon

From Combiner Wars I still want to see a G2 Defensor and Shining Ultra Magnus!!!

 

flywheels from blitzwing
eject from rewind and frenzy from rumble
crosshairs from kup
carnival from wolfwire
the rest of the incecticons

that is very cool didn't think of that

 

Oh, here's one I am surprised by: G2 Megatron from either Voyager Megatron or Hardhead (with Doomshot as the head).

Seems like a no-brainer.
