This is a thread for those wishing to share their ideas and/or requests for
3rd Party toy/collectables companies. If you have ideas for figures that don't necessarily fit HasTak's criteria, this is a place to express those ideas!

If you're part of a 3rd Party toys and figures company, welcome! Here's a place for you to browse ideas and things Transformers collectors and fans wish to see!

(This is deeeefinitely not me looking for buyer demand opportunities. )

Off the top of my head, two come to mind:

1. The G1 Insecticon Venom. Far as I know, neither third-party companies nor HasTak have done him. All the other Insecticons have some representation from either side. I think he's the only G1 wave-two figure I don't own in upgraded form!

2. Either an upgrade kit to turn the Generations Junkion into Nancy, or a whole-new mold.

I'll always be disappointed that the Techno Toon titans line never continued, so if anybody ever offers an Animated-inspired figure, I'm all over that.

That's one thing I've been hoping for but never knew who to ask, lol

Somebody was hyping an Animated Dirt Boss a while back; it was supposed to become a Devastator head in addition to a forklift. That was a while ago, so I think that might have fallen through.

What I've been hoping for is a series of Transformers Prime characters to go along with all the 3rd party, MP scale, War For Cybertron figures. Maybe even some MP style RiD characters such as Steeljaw and Thunderhoof, along with my personal favorite: Prime Arcee.

Now of course, Arcee is impossible to design with an in-scale alt mode AND robot mode in her Prime design, but if her robot mode fits at least, that would be sweetness. Just a TFP Arcee that's both accurate AND doesn't have a huge wheel on her back would be great imo.

Also a TF Prime MP scale Optimus as well to be head to head with MP-10 and MP Optimus 3.0 would be boss.

Here are some:
* Animated Slipstream
* Enhanced ROTF Sideways, ideally with at least one of his guns from the game integrated
* Dark of the Moon Devcon (the missile truck guy with a robot mode based on the Cloverfield Monster)
* DotM "Garbage Haul" (Long Haul body type, turns into garbage truck)
* TLK Onslaught
* The generic cannon-fodder Protoform Decepticons (obviously, these would be nontransforming figures)
* Perfect-grade KOs of the RiD Autobot Brothers since their molds are gone
* Downloadable papercraft Deluxe-size G1 Seacon limbs, perhaps just as their beast modes. This due to their nature as mass-produced units in Masterforce.
* Downloadable papercraft Sweeps the size of Titans Return Scourge
* Downloadable papercraft Cyclonus the size of Universe Cyclonus
* Downloadable papercraft Supreme/Commander-size Guardian Robot (can be nontransforming)
* Downloadable papercraft G1 Dropkick (the name given to the cargo truck drones from "War Dawn")
* Downloadable papercraft "cargo cube" Decepticon Warriors (also from "War Dawn")

We've got Ectotron, but I'd love more mashup TFs!

Swidler as the BttF Time Machine
The Burton era and Adam West era Batmobiles
The Thundertank
Fortress Tiberius (The Enterprise)
A Borg Cube
The Gadget Mobile (Inspector gadget)
A Daalek (there's an obscure UK comics Decepticon that turns into one, so it's kinda canon!)

A replacement Gigatank component for TR/Legends Overlord. One that had all the transformation functionality of the G1 Gigatank, as well as notches in the turret that the Megajet's chest flaps actually tabbed into. It would also include:
* A separate pelvis that would be left in the Megajet, as per the G1 toy
* The proper rifle, complete with the ability to form a small tower in base mode.
* The crane arm
* The fold-out gun in the non-cockpit half of the tank
* The radars (with handle extension pieces, so that they can mount using the side 5mm ports on the arms rather than be held by his hands)
* The missile battery
* The center ramp
* The side ramps/leg shields
* The purple double cannon for the Megajet
* A figure of Mega (for those who have Hasbro Overlord)
* The MegaChild's side guns

Ideally it would also have:
* A new nosecone for the Megajet that had a landing leg built in
* An adapted version of the original Megajet's belly gun to replace the stock landing legs
* Sockets for the MegaChild's oblong peg that part of the tailfin sections on the upper arms would be sawn off and replaced by; this would let the MegaChild mount more securely on the arms.
* Possibly a swinging bar with a new TR base connector on it; the pivot bases for this bar would be glued to the rear section of the MegaChild. The point of this would be to retain a TR base connector on the back while having the Megajet in a slightly more G1 base configuration (that is, with Overlord's chest on the ground).

I want a show-accurate set of deployers for RiD Bisk. I would really appreciate show-accurate versions of Hammer and Anvil, too.

Why the need for Thunderhoof? I can see Steeljaw, but ‘Hoof’s Warrior figure is practically a Masterpiece all itself!

UYC also mentioned MP scale.

Here's an idea: Remakes - and possibly modernizations - of the Diaclone-derived Transformers toys. I'm not talking yet more pseudo-MP and pseudo-CHUG toys, I'm talking direct remakes of the originals at their original size, with enhanced articulation and possibly modernized altmodes.
In other words, an unofficial Car Robots subline for the Diaclone reboot.

I second this. Probably all sorts of legal barricades if we're talking licensed vehicle modes, but if this could happen it would be so awesome!

Wish Action Toys hadn't (apparently) quit their Machine Robo reboot thing; I really wanted that not-Turbo, because he was my favorite GoBot.
