    Only thing possibly standing in the toys way are that they are both dead in IDW. But then so was Doubledealer and a bunch of others that have since gotten figures
    Don't forget half the Technobots, Slingshot, Reflector (at least one of the trio is confirmed, the others implied? I can't remember), Rhinox (probably, unless he shows up again on another planet), Scrapper, Thunderwing & Straxus are also all dead, but we got toys of them in the Generations line.

    And I'm pretty sure Outback is the ONLY TF with the "stereotypical" Aussie accent

    What about Cybertron Jetfire, who in a weird twist of irony, was the only Jetfire in the Unicron Trilogy not to be played by Scott McNeil, who is an Australian.
    I'll update this when I'm needing help finding particular figures

    Scott McNeil is a Canadian. Yes, he was born in Australia, but he moved to Canada when was still an infant and grew up there his whole life. He's really Canadian, and I suspect that he carries a Canadian passport, and AFAIK he identifies himself as being Canadian. There are plenty of Australians who were born overseas but identify themselves as being Australian (as does the public), but just sticking with those who worked on Transformers, Hugo Weaving is identified as an Australian but he was born in Nigeria.
