    Default Future Figure Fantasies

    Not to be confused with the holy grail thread, this thread is meant for characters you wish would go into production as a new mould or repaint.
    Try to include relevant pictures to keep the thread interesting.
    So without any further adieu, I'll start:

    1. War For Cybertron (DS) Rodimus:
    Small Voyager or Large Deluxe



    2. War For Cybertron Arcee:
    Deluxe

    We have a few threads like this already, but it's usually fun to do and the wants change with time.
    Will do up my latest ones when I have more time.

    My apologies. I had a look through the last 4 or 5 pages and I couldn't find a thread with this premise. All I could find was a thread devoted to listing 40 Generations figures people would like to see.

    I look forward to seeing your list.

    Maybe you could provide a picture of the vehicle you'd like to see as her alt mode? The Classics/Generations line has modernised the alt modes of almost every character so far, so Arcee would probably be a modern car as well.

    I don't want a Generations Arcee toy with a modern realistic Earthen alt mode. We already got that with Binaltech Arcee (Honda S2000). I'd like to see a Generations Arcee toy that is a physical incarnation of her G1 model -- retaining the futuristic-Cybertronian fantasy alt mode, similar to what we saw with Classicsverse Hot Rod and Cyclonus.

    Animated Arcee's the one transforming toy that comes the closest to G1 Arcee, but of course, she's still heavily stooped in the Animated design aesthetic. Imagine a toy of a similar level of engineering, but based on the G1 model. That's pretty much what I'd love to see.

    3rd Party Valkyrie. Whether you admit it or not THAT IS THE MOULD that IS G1 Arcee, which will never see the official release light of day coz the 3rd party beat Hasbro into making one. But since this is a Fantasy wishlist kinda thread ... if Hasbro is to release one - it would basically be the same only tougher plastic I presume.

    The mould anyways I believe was based or "taken from" the Arcee toy ( garage kit figure) which was the official price in a raffle from a Japanese Toy covention in the early years like late 80s to 90s - whether sanctioned by Takara or not, I don't have a clue. I've seen an article and it in a link website hosted by the now extinct Geocities so the site no longer exists, SO when I saw Valkyrie and that other one Delicate warrior (Xena built hehehehe) - sporting everything almost identical in look and transformation from the pics of that raffle figure Arcee I knew they got to whoever won it and reverse engineered the thing. The Garage kit figure had better (waaay more) QC in built and Im guessing it could be like those garage kit Powerglide and Wheelie shown a few years back from one of them Winter toy festival in Japan.

    SO for pics to Gok's fantasy figure we can only provide a 3rd party figure ... shame really, oh and these are old stock photos btw


    Alt mode's pretty close to the toons anyhow - just needs better quality materials and built. Coz As you can see in the closeup it definitely looks KO materials and finish QC wise - but hey Hasbro continue to fail us on this so I got this for now.
