    ^^ I like how these guys think.

    1: More fembots.

    Nautica for sure.
    (Large) Voyager or Leader-class Strika.
    Legends-class Nickel of the D.J.D.
    Deluxe-class Classics/Generations-style Airachnid. Done right - or at least less horribly wrong - this time.

    2: Legends Kickback and 3-pack Sharkticons.
    Also Combiner Wars Deluxe Sweeps, to serve as limbs for Galvatronus and/or as additional Sweeps. Really, just more army-builders as case-filler figures in general.

    3: "Disguise" Bumblebee. Instead of doing endless Bumblebee repaints, how about giving us one Bumblebee per line in a 'disguise' theme with alternate (and easily-swappable) heads representing Bumper, Hubcap, and Goldbug (and/or other Bumblebee-ish figures), so we can turn some of those excess 'bees into (whatever)-verse other characters? Hell, just make the heads easily replaceable and release a few alternate heads at the same pricepoint as a Legends figure - it'll still be better than New Hat Bumblebee in Wave 2, followed by Hot Date Bumblebee in Wave 3, followed by Gone Fishing Bumblebee in Wave 4, etc. etc.

    4: many, many others. Too many to name them all, but two that stand out are:
    Titan-class Unicron and Primus.
    I'd love a Titan-class Predaking too, but really...if anyone deserves/needs a huge toy it's Unicron and Primus.

    Saw this on a TFW sig and thought it a good idea I'd like to see, thinking outside the square: Combiner Wars Smolder



    (he was my fave PCC new identity; there's not enough Decepticon rescue vehicles.)

    I don't want to see any more season 1 cast members being done again. Anything post-US G1 cartoon is fine in my book: comic characters, Japanese exclusives, later franchises, etc. I'm just sick up to here with the S1 cast getting all the toys, especially in Masterpiece, and feel Generations should go with the more interesting characters.

    But Combiner Wars is fine, I just hope next year's second series doesn't just consist of G2 redecoes of Superion, Devastator, and Bruticus. As far as I'm concerned those three are DONE now. We have the definitive versions we need. I never want to see them again.

    I personally don't want to see any character who's already had a Classicsverse toy done being done again. I'd rather see them focus on other characters who haven't had it done. I can understand that there are some 'easy opportunities' for some characters to be redone, e.g. Generations Gears repainted as Brawn, okay, that's fine. But in terms of developing new moulds, I'd rather see that being done for G1 characters who haven't had the Classicsverse treatment yet.

    They still haven't done a Classicsverse (or MP) Time Warrior yet. Just sayin'.

    For the most part I agree, characters like Sunstreaker, Sideswipe, Jazz, Bluestreak, Smokescreen all have awesome Generations figures and don't need a new release. On the other hand characters like Rodimus, Astrotrain, Octane, Galvatron all need an update well the last 3 need a voyager mould.

    I know he is getting a little love as part of the leader Magnus but as soon as I saw the concept of minimus I thought they would have done the orion mold for him so.

    Minimus Ambus
    Retool (Orion Pax)
    New head (with killer mustache)
    Deluxe
    Accessories: Minimus from Leader Magnus.

    Are you talking just post season 1 or post the entire US G1 cartoon as you mention both. Personally I'm in agreement about in part about season one though I'd like there to be another Ratchet and of course the Dinobots. If we are talking the whole US G1 cartoon run then there are tons of characters still to do who have not cropped up in the Generations line.

    And while I love it , I don't think that we have had a definitive Generations Bruticus yet. The FOC version was cool but there is room for improvement

    Remember how cool Generations Warpath was (is)? I would love to see more of the G1 minibots get the deluxe treatment - Brawn (and Outback repaint), Gears (maybe a Swerve repaint to replace the GDO Swerve we already have), and Beachcomber spring to mind. And a good Reflector please!!!

    At the moment I think they're leaning towards creating a full set of minibots in legends class. Deluxes would be great, but I don't see much happening for a while.
