Hasbro
Scattorshot from Silverbolt - redeco of single release Scattorshot
Afterburner from Groove - Remould
Lightspeed from Dead End/Streetwise
Strafe from Air raid (I think. Might be sky dive) - remould
Nosecone from Brawl - tank gun barrel replaced with drill
Scrounge from Cosmos
Yellow repaint of Payload
New designed combiner hands and feet instead of the hand/foot/gun pieces that came with other CW releases. (The ankles can tilt on the combiner feet)

Takara
Scattorshot from Silverbolt/Scattorshot - new remoulded computron chest, new Computron head, possibly new Scattorshot chest, new gun compared to Hasbro versions of Scattorshot
Afterburner from Groove - same remould as Hasbro version but has new guns
Lightspeed from Breakdown/Wheeljack
Strafe from Unite Warriors Blast Off - Remould
Nosecone from Rook - remould to add a drill to vehicle mode and. Replace wheels with treads
Still using Hand/Foot/Gun pieces

Other than that everything else is just speculation on which figures will have new heads, if the Takara versions all have new guns compared to the Hasbro versions and what Takara's decos for their technobots will have but they'll likely be cartoon accurate
