I'd love to have some Sweeps. That would be an awesome redeco. The Gears idea is pretty cool too and a Nemesis Prime repaint is ways welcomed into my collection

I really want a Blaster, but I think that Soundwave would need pretty extensive retooling to make a good Blaster. Not that it couldn't be done. Aside from a new head and new weapons, and possibly removal of the claws, it would also need some retooling in the shoulders.

Aside from Blaster, I would really love a retool of the Red Alert version of the Universe Sunstreaker mould (but preferably with the spoiler removed) as the Lamborghini Gallardo Polizia version:

As I've said before, I also really want a Transformer that turns into a DeLorean. There are two moulds that I think could be good to retool into one, due to their fairly flat vehicle modes: Classics Rodimus and Universe Sunstreaker. Either one would of course require remoulding on pretty much every visible part in vehicle mode, including large changes to the placement of the windshield, since the DeLorean has a much longer hood and farther back windshield than the Gallardo or Rodimus's vehicle mode. The main other redeco I'd want would be Thundercracker (and preferably a new Skywarp, since he's so hard to find these days). I expect that Hasbro will release a Thundercracker made from the Classics Seeker mould, but it might not be for a while. I'd also really like an RiD Scourge made from G2 Prime.

that would make an excellent Nightbeat or Streetwise

I would like to see some of the harder-to-find Seekers redone, like Skywarp and Thundercracker, but I would really like to see Ramjet get re-done or re-released so all three Coneheads would be available in the same line.

Since that's a bit unlikely, I think with some minor re-tooling, Thrust could be made to resemble Powerglide, and I would love to see a "Cybertronian Galvatron" made from a retool of Cybertroninan Megatron. I don't own that Megs, but based on the pics I've seen I think his Alt-mode would suit Galvy much better than the Universe "Earthy" tank does.

I also wouldn't mind:
RotF Hubcap re done as one of the micromaster Hot Rod Patrol
Perceptor re-done as Cybertron Defence Red Alert

even though the EXCELLENT USB Hub Blaster is en route to me Id still buy a Generations Blaster

I'd like to see a classics style Generations Blaster, not another SW repaint.

You may be onto something there.

Rumble/Frenzy mold for Half-Track, and a different (truck) mold for Meltdown?

I think a slight weapons remould would do the trick for Meltdown. I also heard there was a way for the Rumble & Frenzy mold to combine, so that would also lend to making a great Half-track and Meltdown.

The combining rumor is false. Rumble and Frenzy are exactly the same mold.

Never thought of that before, but Kup-to-Gears is a pretty good idea.

WfC Megs probably would make quite a good Galvatron with a new head and preferably new chest.

Come to think of it, that probably would be a pretty good Nightbeat. The colours would be good, since Nightbeat was blue, and even though he wasn't a police car in G1, it would fit him quite well, being a detective.

I'd like to see a remolded WFC Soundwave in to Impactor. I think Red Alert could easily be given the black repaint treatment for Scamper.
On an aside I'd only buy a Ricochet if he came with Nightstick.
