Which Non-Toy Characters Deserve One?

[SilverDragon]

As there's going to be a toy based on Straxus, Xaaron needs one too.

I'd also like to see toys of the few Animated characters who didn't get ones.

They should make a Revoltech/AM type Megatron which then can be repainted into Xaron.

I voted for Marvel G2, Marvel UK and Animated

However I am more interested in individual characters rather than the entire lines.

For Marvel G2 I'd love to see a Jhiaxus

Marvel UK and Impactor and Emirate Xaaron

and animated Omega Supreme (I have seen a really awesome custom of one on the interwebs)

[snaketales]

They already have, albeit just as a RH.

Has Ironhide slipped over in that pic?

"whoops! who waxed this floor!?!?"

To be entirely honest I'm more interested in different designs than unproduced characters.

For example, I'd like to see the IDW F-22 Raptor seeker body (used during the -ation series and now also in the Ongoing) made into toy form - I'm currently substituting Energon Energon Starscream in but would like to see one done properly.

Likewise with Ongoing Blurr, Tracks, Swindle and Magnus.

. We simply have got to have an Animated Omega, see , this another selling point Hasbro missed out on. The moment they Introed omega in the storyline they shouldve gotten a toy out, but instead we get reclours of lockdown and bumblebee for the umpteenth time. Somehow even if they release one now, after the seriesis finished people will still buy it, with just the collectors alone, they'll make a killing! and the constructicons, aww cmon, you gotta love em!

The thing that makes me want Omega Supreme, Mixmaster and Scrapper is that not only did they appear in Animated... they appeared repeatedly and had rather prominent roles and made significant contributions to TF Animated continuity. They're reasonably significant enough characters that I would really want to have toys of them.

It's for the same reason that I would like to have toys for characters like Botanica, Impactor, Rack 'N' Ruin and even Alice and Reedman (they had more screentime than Jolt - and in Alice's case, she had more dialogue!). I'm not too fussed about more minor characters Devcon (who only appeared in one episode of G1 -- yeah sure he's interesting, but so's Transmutate. Yeah okay, Transmutate got a toy (which was a beeotch to collect for me cos I wasn't interested in the BW reissues!), but I wouldn't have lost much sleep if it had never been produced)

Heh, it's just playing out the scene in the first movie, which has him doing a roll while firing (with that screaming lady looking up at him).

I want to see Scrapper and Overload from ROTF given some toy love. Maybe even Hightower too, although he might be a bit too weird to be viable.

[Firestorm]

I'd like to see figures of ROTF Scrapper and Overload as well as Animated Scrapper, Mixmaster, Dirtboss, Slipstream, Omega Supreme, Hotshot and even though they had no relevance to the story and were just background characters I'd also like figures of Animated Cosmos, Seaspray and Beachcomber

ooohh and a cybertron mode Bumblebee and Wasp (they did it for Optimus, Megatron, Arcee, Jetfire, Jetstorm and Ratchet (then Ironhide) so why not cybertron mode Bumblebee and Wasp?

[GoktimusPrime]

I want to see Scrapper and Overload from ROTF given some toy love.

+1. Especially Scrapper considering that:
a/ His robot mode was prominently featured in the film
b/ His Legends robot mode is freakin' awesome!

Maybe even Hightower too, although he might be a bit too weird to be viable.

Might be decent if it's more accurate to Hightower's robot mode (1, [url=http://tfwiki.net/w2/images2/3/36/Hightower_ROTF_T-rex_concept.jpg]2[/urkl]) -- it's certainly no weirder than Demolishor or the bikes. Or they could modify the robot mode to make it more humanoid... after all we never did see the robot mode in the film.

ooohh and a cybertron mode Bumblebee and Wasp (they did it for Optimus, Megatron, Arcee, Jetfire, Jetstorm and Ratchet (then Ironhide) so why not cybertron mode Bumblebee and Wasp?

Jetfire and Jetstorm never acquired Earth modes, and they did feature prominently in the cartoon with those modes, so it's understandable that they would sell in their Cybertron modes. Ditto Arcee. Cybertron Mode Optimus Prime was slow to sell compared to other Deluxes and just yesterday I still found a Cybertron mode Megatron shelfwarming at TRU. This could be why Hasbro AU are reluctant to import Arcee and CYB mode Ratchet here.

I'd love to see even an Earth mode Wasp with retooled head (Activator or Deluxe) - but evidently Hasbro have already decided not to do that.
