    Blackout and a new Barricade would be my top wishes. Blackout could share engineering with Lugnut since their transformations are broadly identical and they're need to be the same size, and Barricade could be remolded into Cybertron Downshift (and the Big Daddy repaint) since they have muscle car alt modes and similar transformations as well.

    Erhm a nice little core class Scorponok and a G1 Dionobot decoed Scorn would be nice as well.

    On some real shit I'm feeling this comment. Hell they could probably use the new Sandstorm mold as well too. Although maybe not since that's gonna be a leader class figure.

    Having Frenzy be like one of the Siege/ER Battlemasters would be cool as hell in my opinion. If they do it of course.

    When you say Arcee are you talking about the ROTF versions or the 07 concept design?

    This'll probably be an unpopular opinion but what if Cogman was made into a Pretender type Transformers?

    Ooh I’d definitely be down to see that, maybe the face is more G1 or IDW Hot Rod-ish but whether way I’d down
    Or cues from Animated Blackout would be dope.

    I kinda would prefer a new mold but also hearing this it could definitely work for Dropkick for sure.

    Nah, then it wouldn't be Cogman anymore... he's a headmaster, that's his gimmick and would need to keep it.

    The "Pretenders" of Legacy right now aren't even Pretenders at all... they just have the esthetics of the shells grafted onto the robot body.

    The Titans Return Master were better Pretenders as they were shells that hid the Primes within them so to pass them off as something else.

    OK, now THAT is a G1ified design if I ever saw one!

    I'll have to think about this one. My gut reaction was that Legacy isn't suitable for Bayverse characters...lest they become less Bayverse-like. But, I think Wheelie would be a great candidate. He's already stupid looking, and he turns into a toy monster truck...lol. He'd make good CHUG fodder. And, I like the idea of doing the BB movie triplechangers as actual triplechangers.

    i totally forgot about the 07 concept. i was mostly thinking either bbm, which would make for a nice normal "g1 arcee but bike", or rotf, which you could totally do like siege refraktor - get three and combine em.

    tell ya what. do what you want with the face, but the helmet still needs a retractable faceplate and some kind of cool bug-eye goggles. hot rods got a mask like that in one of the prime wars shows, and imo we dont really have enough tfs with bug eyes or removable eyewear.

    I’d be down and agreed about removable eyewear. I’d be down also if the head is still movie and no huge G1 elements.

    First a Cybertron Jetfire to go with our new, flashy TOTY Cybertron OP, then a Jetstorm.

    Okay, that doesn’t automatically equate to “we need more fat Transformers”. Not everything needs to be represented, especially when it’s something harmful like obesity.

    I know, I’ll probably get hounded for saying that but it’s true.

    Maybe Jetfire could be a mix between a Blackbird alt mode with the kibble placement and general body of Movie Jetstorm, as a reference to the twins from Animated. Maybe paint eyes on the visor to give the face an older feel.

    Or paint the visor like his battle mask we see when he first transforms.

    Laser Prime might be a good foundation for a Generations Bayverse Prime. Their truck modes are very similar to each other.

    Definitely works as a foundation, same for a DOTM Megatron even. Digibash’s have shown this:

    Which could double as a homage to this:

    But if it’s G1-ified, he won’t have any facial hair. :(
