Military choppers, troop transports and aircraft carriers have all been done as TF alt modes before. Unless you're referring to specific type or class of chopper/transport/carrier which hasn't been done.
I like to explore kinds of alt modes that have never ever been done in Transformers before.
Gutsman Heavy: There was a Walrus Transformer in Beast Wars Neo - only ever appeared as a background character in the show... there was never a toy made of it. That'd be interesting.
...evidently quite attached with that Maximal koala...
Golden Phoenix: A platypus has never been done... heh, the people of England initially thought it was a Fuzor too (i.e.: man-made hoax). Ah, those norti convicts!
Super Car is a term for any high-end sports car - and we've had plenty of those in Transformers before, so that's nothing particularly new.

Clarifying, Soundwarp & I would luv to see an "Aussie-only Racecar" done as a TF(I'm pretty sure there's already been a question asked about that in the "Hasbro Questions thread"... )

Does 1970s Camaro (Monaro) Bumblebee count as an Australian super car?

I think it'd be interesting seeing a Transformer that could transformer into (wait for it) a human.
This was the original intention of Pretenders from Hasbro, but Takara said it'd be better to keep Transformers transforming into vehicles but give them human shells instead - and Hasbro agreed.
But what I would like to see is a Transformer that can actually transform into a human! It'd be seriously freaky and the ultimate form of infiltration and disguise for a Transformer.
The Decepticons' synthetic humans were pretty creepy and had incredible advantages in being able to mimic their hosts and operating as the ultimate sleeper agents in human society; living normal lives until their dormant programming was activated. Freaky stuff. But they had obvious limitations, such as being extremely fragile compared to Transformers (since they are only about as durable as a real human being).
Having a Transformer human would largely eliminate that weakness. At human size they may never be as physically powerful as most other Transformers - possibly only about as strong say Rumble or Frenzy. But most importantly they wouldn't be as fragile and be far more durable, which is essential if they are carrying vital information (which they would be as spies). And although they would be weak by Transformers standards, they would still be really powerful by human standards - they'd pretty much be like Terminators - no human could physically outmatch them!
I wouldn't want to see them transform into a third vehicular mode - their human mode should be their only alt mode, especially from a toy engineering perspective. Making humans transform into robots alone would prove quite challenging and we don't want another Transformers Animorphs (shudder). Even if it never happens as a toy (because challenge aside I'm not sure what the market demand would be) I think it'd still be interesting to see such a Transformer in the fiction somewhere, e.g.: if the Decepticons decided to replace the synthetic facsimiles with actual Decepticons with human alt modes.
They could insert Decepticon agents as either regular civilians, soldiers, politicians etc. It would allow them to infiltrate human society really well... and also make it more efficient if they were to hunt down a human for some reason - e.g.: Sam Witwicky and his glasses... having a Decepticon as a classmate or local resident in his city could've been more effective than sending a police car. They could replace either Myles or Mikaela with a Decepticon mimic. Oooh!

I'd like to see a Transformer toy which turned into a kangaroo. I know there was a TF kangaroo in the Japanese BW series, but I'd like to see how it would work as a toy.
Also, duck.

Moke-former!
