Liam Neeson transformers. He punches Weirdwolf!

For Mr. Norris, You could just take an Obi-Wan Kenobi head and put it on Classics Mirage. Might not look angry enough.

An Ultra class Cosmos. I've always been a fan of his, and being in a larger size with some lights and cheesy UFO sound effects would be awesome.

Powerglide, another minibot, did had his Ultra counterpart. Seaspray had a voyager. So, why not another larger minibot? Voyager would be more feasable for Cosmos and coulb be really feasable.

Heres a couple of suggestion of Transformers I would like to see produced by anyone, not strictly Hasbro (hello iGear/CHMS?)

Optimus Prime - Classics version UPSCALED/OVERSIZED to new Masterpiece scale.
This would be sweet upscaled with some added foot and hand articulation!

Megatron - Classics version NEW MOLD retaining the Anime/Cartoon/G1 'gun' look.
The 'NERF' gun is so dated and was only produced as a Transformer because Hasbro own 'NERF' [citation needed] and it helped sell Megs to 'the kids'!
Give us a decent/tradional gun mode and sell ol' bucket head in robot mode to avoid any shipping issues!

Thank you and good afternoon! :grin:

This could only be possible via KO. They already made a oversised WFC OP and a GIANT upscale of Leader DotM Ironhide. So, why not? However, I'll add to your list of improvements one huge thing that you missed: The stupid arm kibbles should have one more hinge to properly wrap around the arm to make it dissapear.

You DO know about Hegemon, right?
I do have him and he's a MUST HAVE. Perfect gun mode and the robot mode just need a

sticker on the chest. If the hips kibble bug you, pop them off in bot mode like we did with the old MP seeker molds. Pop them back in for gun mode.

Yep, forgot about his arm kibble for second there! Agreed, they would need to make that curved piece a hinged piece so it could fold around his arm?

Yep, but I thought he might be a little too tall to stand alongside Classic Deluxes (I dont have a comparison pic to hand) but yeh, he is all kinds of awesome!

Hegemon is voyager sized. So he only go well with Classic OP for that style and scale range. A deluxe sized version could be nice too, but this time, the gun mode would be saceficed because it will not be a gun of the right size and maybe a few bot kibble would show. I too, would like a G1 style Megs in deluxe size that change into a more or less accurate gun. Hasbro would DEFENITELY never make this.

If you dont have them already, get Hegemon for the figure itself and RTS Legends Megs to go in a Legen Classic battle scene! Thou shall not have regrets.

BTW, since when scale in Transformers make any sense?

Just googled some size pics of Hegemon and Prime and he looks rather cool alongside.
I believe Megatron was always portrayed as being slightly taller than Optimus Prime anyway, so yeah, Heg' looks sweet!

See that? That was my comment flying right over your head. Sarcasm obviously isn't one of your strong points. Honestly, I even highlighted the word perfect in italics to put further emphasis on how ridiculously out of scale the Protectobots are. How obtuse can you be? And the Atomic Facepalm? how old are you, 6?
So, here's your helmet back. Just don't tighten the chinstrap too much. Thatta boy, run along now...

Overquoting to say DAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAMN! at the link. Now I want a GDO Springer to do just that!

By the way, I think there's already a 3rd party version of Springer out there. Fan Project I think?

No need to quote to say that's EXACTLY IT.

I could have bought the thing for 50$ in person a few months ago. Guess I missed a great opportunity. Oh well.
