But why vote for the others? What can Hasbro achieve with another modern version of those other characters that they haven't already achieved in recent incarnations? I don't see what a new CHUGUR Hound could do that Universe/Henkei Hound doesn't already give us. I have zero interest in Titans Return Optimus Prime and Megatron. None of these toys seem to offer anything substantial which Reveal the Shield G2 Optimus Prime and Combiner Wars Megatron don't already (relative to their different price/size classes). I frankly don't need another Headmaster Optimus Prime (already have TR PM OP), I don't need a Headmaster Megatron, and I don't need either character as Triple Changers. These are all bonus gimmicks, but nothing that I consider essential. If they made a Titans Return Hound then what? A new CHUGUR Hound that's a Headmaster? Uh... no thanks, I'll just stick with my Henkei. Why do I need a new Headmaster Hound again? Optimus Primal? I have Telemocha Convoy (redeco of RM Beast Convoy, and I have RM Burning Beast Convoy, so I have this mould twice) and I have MP Beast Convoy. And TakaraTOMY recently reissued the original Optimus Primal with the show-accurate head as part of the LG line (and if I gave a toss about show-likeness I might've considered getting that toy ). So again, not seeing what another modern Optimus Primal toy could really bring to the table.

TBH the only character here that I would want to see redone as a toy other than Deszaras is Hound, but only as a Masterpiece figure. But this is a Hasbro poll, and we know that Hasbro never develop Masterpiece toys, only TakaraTOMY do (and Hasbro will sometimes follow TakaraTOMY's lead if they feel like it, but they never take the lead). So there's no point in voting for Hound if you wanted an MP figure for that. A better chance of seeing MP Hound is to have nominated the character on the TakaraTOMY online poll before they geoblocked it (I know I have). Otherwise all we can do is hope that fans in Japan are nominating him.

But as far as Hasbro's concerned, out of the characters offered here Deszaras seems to make the most sense. He is the only character who's never had a modern toy made of him. I would like to see Hasbro release as many G1 characters as CHUGUR figures as possible before revisiting characters that they've already done all over again. Because I'm unlikely to purchase any redone characters (just as I'm planning on entirely skipping TR Optimus Prime and Megs), but I'll jump at the chance to get a new character-toy!
