Figures you always wanted from the Transformers Movie toy lines but were never made

Transformers News: Figures you always wanted from the Movie toy lines but were never made

In lieu of Takara Tomy's upcoming Transformers Movie reissues to celebrate 10 years of the Transformers Movie live action film franchise, it really got the wheels turning in my head. As a fan of the movie toys, there are a few holes in my collection that Hasbro or Takara Tomy never fulfilled. So I thought it'd be interesting to see which figures some of you think need new decoes or even better yet (in my little fantasy world) all-new brand new figures.

Maybe this time around they get a proper paint job or a premium deco? Or imagine if they're more-or-less to scale (say it with me everyone -- big ass Dinobots!!!!)? Maybe it's a character that didn't get a proper toy (i.e. Dino/Mirage) or didn't get a proper figure altogether outside of a 1-Step (i.e. Stinger)? Or maybe scale was a thing to you so you wanted a Leader Class Bonecrusher to reenact the scene where Optimus Prime rips his head off. Or maybe Movie 1 Megatron or ROTF Megatron needs to be remolded or given a new figure to better take on the absolutely amazing ROTF Leader Class Optimus Prime. Or even better yet ... how about a proper triplechanger Drift?

With all of that said, I thought it'd be interesting to have a discussion with some of you about this. Toss your ideas out here. If you're not into the movies, please sit this one out. Just looking for people who like the movie toys and feel like they didn't get something they really wanted from the movie toy lines over the past decade.

Without further ado, please share your ideas in our on-going discussion on our forums!

After I saw DOTM the figures I wanted the most were the dreads. So if we were to get brand new figures for Crowbar and Hatchet, possibly released with a slightly better painted Crankcase I'd be really happy.

Id have to say the original arcee with a less fugly head, a better deluxe jazz & deluxe versions of the remaining dreads.

Leader Class Long Haul, to be honest. He had easily one of my favorite movie designs, and it would have been cool to get a giant, slightly bulkier toy of it.

Uhhh.......Dino/Mirage did get a figure from Takara Tomy. Granted, it was a repaint of Sideways, but TT did give him a new screen-accurate head.

That said, I'd love for him to get his own mold, as a Ferarri.

Elita-1 as the third bike sister as her MV Agusta bike mode, not just a repaint of Chromia.

Voyager Scrapper

Brains as a laptop.....if they can do Xiaomi Soundwave as a tablet why not Brains as a laptop? In proper scale, of course.

Drift as a triple-changer

Deluxe Stinger as his proper Pagani Huayra altmode

A proper Legends Stinger, not just a poor Knockout repaint

AoE Drift is definitely on top of my list together with AoE Lockdown. A Human Alliance version of him with a working battle mask gimmic, the hook hand and the gunface would have been so awesome.
And a better version of RotF Devestator with triplechanging components (vehicle, robot and combiner mode).

First off this subject is so awesome cause I was just thinking about this early today. :-D
Even though I know people are not fans of these two, but I have always wished for a Voyager Class version of the Mudflap/Skids :BOT: Ice Cream Truck, I find the Deluxe version to be too small. And lets face it, it is their coolest looking mode.
Another one would be Wheelie :BOT: :CON: in Voyager Class size, my reason is it would be the closet thing to being real life size, perhaps a Leader Class would be closer, but I doubt they would ever make him a Leader Class. Also I always felt like with the Ice Cream Brothers, that Deluxe Wheelie :BOT: :CON: was lacking in design.
Talking about the little guys in the movies, I have always wondered why Brains :BOT: never received a figure, even if it was a small non-transforming one included with one of the Human Alliance figures. Sure I like Steeljaw :BOT: , and I understand he was in concept art for DOTM, but I wish that Leadfoot :BOT: (or one of the others) came with Brains :BOT: instead.
I have also always wanted a Human Alliance version of Bumblebee's :BOT: 1976 Chevrolet Camaro mode/version. I love this vehicle mode, and it would've gone good with Barricade :CON: .
One of my favorite Cons was Frenzy :CON:, and I always wanted like a Legend Class version of him.
I do agree that Bonecrusher :CON: definitely deserves a Leader Class figure, or should I say we deserve one to be made. I love his Deluxe, but like I have mentioned above with the others, it lacks in so many ways too. And yes a DOTM Leader Class Megatron :CON: would be AWESOME!!!! ;)^

I don't actively buy movie figures, just whatever looks neat or makes it to clearance, but there is one figure I would have bought instantly.

Shockwave from Transformers: The Game for the first movie. He was a triple changer that turned into a helicopter and then flipped over to become an artillery canon. Would have been a super cool figure in Voyager class, but instead we just got a bunch of camera-headed drones from the game. :(

Greetings. I have to admit because this is a mix of partial lack of knowledge, and partly becauase of not caring for the movie line...but, was there ever a true Optimus/Jetfire combiner toy based on ROTF? I remember many variants of each, and looking for a combiner mode one, and don't recall ever seeing one, but I would have thought it would be an obvious selling point.
