OK, strange topic title, because I couldn't think of anything else. I was wondering which characters you guys reckon could make good Universe/Botcon repaints/remolds into other characters. Like, for example, I think Cybertron Unicron would make a GREAT Bludgeon or Flame. (From the City of Fear arc in the original UK run.) Your ideas: This topic. In the words of Captain Tenneal of MXC fame: GET IT ON!

I know its a bit early considering the fact that the figure isn't even out yet; but I think that Animated Starscream would make a great Cyclonus. Just give him a dark purple color scheme and maybe a new head mold and he would make the best Cyclonus we've had since that custom model kit.

I've always thought that if you changed movie brawl's head into a buckethead and he'd make a decent megatron

I totally agree. From what I've seen of the Animated SS it does make me think of G1 Cyclonus, and with a couple modifications it could work out just right. The existing Botcon Cyclonus from 02 I think is a BM Jetstorm and in jet mode it looks pretty close to the G1 variety, but the robot mode is off. That's a good figure too.
