    Commander Possibilities-

    Tidal Wave -Dark Fleet redux would be great, although he'd almost make a better Titan
    Blackout -the Animated Omega-Sentinel killing, slightly insect looking helicopter one
    Sky Lynx -separates and transforms properly this time
    Lugnut -cause him being Jetfire size would be awesome!!

    I would prefer Sky Lynx to be titan class, but I agree with the rest

    Overlord would be a neat Commander Class figure,
    Two triple changers: Tank - robot - legs, jet - robot - upper body with a base mode.

    I'm willing to take a Star Saber that homages him to be honest. It would definitely be very interesting to see how they could play that out.

    It would be neat IMHO if the Brain of Courage was replaced with a Micromaster Wingsaber who can act as Saber’s shield.

    Well, Takara will release an Armada Optimus Prime, so could be cool if they release Jetfire and Overload to get a Commander class fuse between Optimus, Jetfire and Overlodad

    The same could happen with Wing Saber and a hypothetical Energon Optimus Prime

    Is it really happening?

    Energon Optimus Prime or Superlink Grand Convoy did have bit of respect in Unite Warriors. But if we ever had a submarine custom Deluxe Class character retooled from UW Blast Off, and a mini firetruck from CW Offroad, it can be done.

    But if we think about a functional Voyager Class Energon OP with basically Legends Class drones (sold in pairs for Deluxe price) to make a good set.

    Rename Armada Jetfire after Galaxy Shuttle could keep the Space Shuttle Atl. mode and add a "new" character. OF course "Galaxy Shuttle" is a silly, clumsy name even by Transformer standards, but there will be howling if they change it. Optimus, Overload, and JetShuttle at the current "leader" size that could combine into "Battle Back-Pack" wearing Power-Pants Prime would make a cool Titan class toy. Maybe throw in Leobreaker, and Wingsaber as arms and now you've got a truly unique combiner. Which only a bare handful of folks would shell Titan Class money out for cause if the Unicron Trilogy stuff was more popular, we'd have seen more it turn up than just Hot Shot, Megatron, and Starscream.

    Leader class Motormaster that's not a redeo or retool of Optimus Prime, think IDW Ultra Magnus from the Spotlight where his cab goes into his chest and has four modes, robot to truck to base with connectivity to Titan Return leaders and the fourth mode is a Torso with combiner ports.

    Voyager class Ratchet, similar to his G1 toy or Energon Towline, eventually retooled as Ironhide.

    I would like to see the Van Bro's pop up in Earthrise, similar to the Seekers.

    I wonder if the fact that Ratchet was a Seige exclusive, similar to most of the Siege Seekers is any indication that it could happen?

    Just call him “Overcast” (who was Armada Jetfire’s “twin brother” in the US bio representing his upgraded form in Japan) or stick with the name “Sky Shadow” (which was his “Decepticon infiltration” name).

    You could call him skyfire. It could be a call back to him being called jetfire and you could make jetfire and skyfire two seprate characters like idw megatron and galvatron also skyshadow is boring, the hell is a sky shadow?

    That I could get behind, especially since hasbro rarely ever uses that name

    I believe Bluestreak was called Bluestreak because of his Diaclone toy, which depicted him as blue. He was released in the US in his silver color scheme though, and the blue version was never released in the US as part of the original toyline.
    Also, I sincerely doubt HasTak will do the incredibly obscure foreign repaints.

    cough cough redwing. cough cough g2 unreleased megatron cough cough powerdashers. They've done redwing esc characters, the foreign repaints fit into that >:[

    More to the point I would love if they separated versions of characters megatron seprated from galvatron, skyfire being called skyfire and armada jetfire being called jetfire
