The Energon Pub

We kinda have that with RID Strongarm. Speaking of her, I'd really like a RiD Strongarm with a proper non-shelforming transformation... VOYAGER size. Kinda like a Movie Human Alliance approach to her. I wanna beefy but feminine fembot.

That is true, and a good Strongarm toy (perhaps not Voyager, but maybe a fairly large Deluxe) would be awesome. Still, her vehicle mode is fairly standard fembot fare (sure it's a bulky police cruiser, but it's still an automobile). A fembot bulldozer would be something completely new (and IMO should definitely be a bulldozer).

Oh who am I kidding, I just really like voluptuous women and want toys that look like them.

I want a modern Thunderclash. An original one, not some stupid repaint or remold.

An upscale of the Deluxe WFC Megatron to Voyager. Man that thing is so beautiful and would work as my perfect Megsy... but Megsy needs to be Voyager imo.
Also, WFC/FOC Ironhide and an actual line of Dinobots that aren't movie or out of scale.

Predaking, Abominus, Piranhacon, and a Dinobot combiner based off the Combiner Wars architecture.

Snaptrap and Hun-Grrr would be remolds of each other (directionally flipped the way Onslaught and Hot Spot are). Hun-Grrr's tail would be reminded into Snapttrap's head and his legs would drape over the shell to be cannons (they would have the heads replaced by barrels)
Slag and Tantrum would be remolds of each other
Headstrong and Sludge would be remolds of each other.
Swoop, Divebomb, Seawing, and Cutthroat would all share a mold, but be heavily retool from each other
Overbite and Rippersnapper would be recolors of each other. Skalor would be a remold With a new beast head.
Sinnertwin and Rampage would be the same mold with different beast heads.
That leaves Blot and Snarl, who I guess could be remolds or recolors of each other.
No idea on Tentakil.

Their Legends figures would be the following:
Slapper the Ankylosaur becomes a club for Dinobot Combined
Nautilator becomes a gun for Piranhacon
Animal that transforms into a gun to mimic Razorclaw'a big gun
Monster that transforms into a chest shield for Abominus.

Something for the 20th anniversary of Beast Wars other than a Beast Machines toy in G1 colors.

My problem isn't that I'm living in the past. Apparently, the problem is that I don't live far enough back.

News Credits: 9 · by **Sowndwave76** » Sat Apr 09, 2016 9:34 pm

I really think in a few years we could see Abominus, Piranacon, and Predaking.
(I hope!!)
What it seems like is never going to happen is updated Dinobots. Including a proper Grimlock.
And I DON'T want them to be able to combine--
1. They'd be too small
2. A couple would probably be re-molds/tools of other beasts from combiner teams

These deserve brand-new, quality molds.
These could help round-out a line that does include the other mentioned beast combiners.
Not to mention, those 3 combiners are all Decepticons; this would add some Autobots to that line.

A non-combiner, non-Titan Master Nautica!

News Credits: 9 · by **Rainmaker** » Wed Apr 13, 2016 9:05 pm

A combiner that combines with other combiners to make another combiner.

May not be what you're thinking of but there's landcross. He's a takara exclusive who's made up of the multiforce, they are a six man team but two members can combine with each other to for one bot.

A repaint of CW Prowl into Bluestreak
Bodies for the Titan Masters of Brawn, Apeface, Flywheels, and the Small Headmasters.
Repaints for older toys into obvious repaints/retools. Like the FOC Starscream into the Coneheads and Sunstorm. Goddammit.

An Airachnid that doesn't suck would be nice.

Devastator can be the torso, and Menasor, Bruticus, Galvatronus, and Predacus can be the limbs. You'd just need a lot of twine to hold them together, and that Megabolt figure to be the head.

Titans Return Vector Sigma, redeco of Sentinel Prime?

:MAXIMAL:

News Credits: 191 · by **Kurona** » Sat Apr 16, 2016 6:40 am

A voyager of this.

It's hands down the best Megatron design there's ever been; I'm so sad I can't have it...

Also, Galvatron II Marvel redeco of TR Galvatron

The CW/Generations Leader is like 90% there.

I'd like to see the "super pretenders" come back, with actual articulation. I don't recall the specific name. But the pretender shell transformed into a jet, and was housed inside it's own shell which was a tank.

Have they ever said why they can't re-issue the G1s? are the molds long gone? I would think they'd make such a killing it would be smart money to just reverse engineer/build new ones.

While on the topic of Dinobots.... I'd love to see a Masterpiece Maximal/Predacon Dinobot with toy accurate face(plate)

Not exactly; it lacks the perfect balance of bulk and elegance this guy exudes and is a bit too lanky, plus he drops the ball at so many details. It's like a mismash of this and the original G1 design which isn't bad, but not as good as the IDW design. Plus... it's not voyager.

Hmmm...

TR Armada Sideways.

I feel like this is a missed opportunity for hasbro if he doesn't appear in this line, two different titanmasters plus a built in head like the original, it would be awesome.

Also regarding megs, rumours have it that we'll soon be getting a voyager megs in a two pack with a voyager optimus...bad news though they'll both be triple changers.

Very loosely at best, and really only insofar as "based on G1 megatron and is also a tank". Beyond that I'd argue they share nothing else in common.
