    After seeing a custom Armada Scavenger from the generations Scoop mould, I reckon that'll be coming down the line.

    If Hasbro or TakTom really wanted to, they have an easy one with Metroplex into Metrotitan or Necrotitan

    Although it wasn't a Hasbro release, Ripclaw was redecoed and remolded into Go! Bakudora

    Well, yeah. I hadn't forgotten about that, but every other deluxe or voyager Predacon mold (except the upscaled Cyberverse ones, again) also saw a redeco and rerelease in the Go! line, so my point is the same - Ripclaw is the only one Hasbro haven't reused, so I'd expect to see it used at some point, and a Generations Ser-Ket makes the most sense.

    Because of the treads layout and general configuration, I could see them remoulding the head and finally making a Generations Hardhead. A Gutcruncher would be cool too. Not sure you could get away with using it for a earth-styled tank character such as Quake though, although they could do his FOC mold which would be awesome!

Rattrap is the trickiest one - other than Packrat and - at a stretch - Beast Machines or Transmetal Rattrap, they might need to do some creative recolouring or remoulding to get extensive use from that one.

    I'd really like to see Quake done properly - grew quite fascinated by Thunderwing/Bludgeon's crews and their funky colours. If they are really considering using Tankor's base mould then it'd need Generations Springer/Sandstorm level of retooling to make it convincing - Tankor's head, legs and clampity-clamp hands are just too distinct.

    Stranglehold from Generations Rhinox could so work! Following ROTF Bludgeon's precedent he should have alt mode based on the inner bot, and bot mode with based on the pretender shell. And following Botcon Metalhawk's precedent he should have a head that screams "WHY WON'T YOU LOVE ME?!".

    I don't think Stranglehold from Rhinox would work, but earlier today I saw this on twitter and changed my mind. Http://pic.twitter.com/b45MRKgu4F

    That would be brilliant. It's actually a shame that they didn't include the original Rhinox toy's chained morning star attachments, as it would mean less retooling for Stranglehold to have his iconic comic weapon.

    My main reasoning for Quake was that he looked like this in the Wreckers comics:

    That's a bit disappointing Especially after seeing how good Charticon Aftershock looks:

    Thats pretty cool!

    Flatline from Skids/Crosscut would be awesome, and I am a sucker for a black repaint.

    I would love to see some more repaints form the targetmasters Caliburst, Holepunch & even Nightstick. This would also mean that we get more of the Targetmaster vehicles
