I was thinking about the MP Starscream with Optimus' head as a disguise...........one second from a scene and its an expensive bonus.

Wasn't the vehicle covering for Hound also a single scene in the cartoon, when they were driving somewhere underwater in the ocean... and then, never seen again?
That rarely used accessory (only able to use it in vehicle mode, and the non-covered vehicle form is what fans recognise as Hound) would have made the price for Hound a lot more than it needed to be as well.
Accessories, yes... but make sure they are worth the inclusion and expense for buyers to get some use out of them, like their weapons, display stand, or a human companion.

Product listings have been found in America from the Walmart or Target computers, of what could be another Monopoly game for Transformers... which has a current Hasbro product number, so isn't (shouldn't be) a re-release of an older version.
Actually, since it HAS a Hasbro product number, it won't be one produced by the two companies that have licenses to produce themed Monopoly games. (almost all themed Monopoly games are not produced by Hasbro... as Hasbro produces larger minimum quantities to sell around the world, while the themed sets are small runs that are too small for Hasbro to care about, to sell mostly sell in specialty stores or in a single country if it is a geographical theme)
This could either be a good quality version from Hasbro in-house with fans in mind, or a really cheap version to sell by the millions around the world.
The 2007 Transformers Monopoly set (with Dreamwave art on the box, and the board folds in half) was produced by a company called USAOpoly (looks like it could have re-released in 2013 with new box deco).
The 2015 Transformers Monopoly set (with Gen1 toy character art on the box, and the board folds into quarters) was produced by a company called Winning Moves.
The 2017 Transformers Premium/Deluxe Monopoly set (plastic sides fold open to reveal playing track, with original artwork in the middle) was also produced by Winning Moves (for about US$300-500!).
(my searches also came up with a Monopoly Junior Transformers set, but it looks like a "knock off" with bad artwork and branding on the box, with no company logos anywhere, and really bad "engrish" product description on the back)
Also... a new Studio Series listing, that could just be a re-release of Dropkick, in the Buzzworthy Bumblebee line (if these product listings were found at a US Target store).

Monopoly Transformers – Product number: F1660 – MSRP $19.99
TRA Studio series Dropkick Dino Product number: F2260 – MSRP: $19.99
Possible first look at a new MP Thundercracker using the new MP Starscream mold. If true these repaints are coming faster than most expected.
Hopefully, for you MP collects, Takara will make Thundercracker, Skywarp, Thrust, Dirge and Ramjet all general retail this time around and not limited exclusives.
