Based on what they've already released as Classics, the biggest ones that they haven't done from G1 yet in my book that they could do in reasonable scale would be Shockwave, Blitzwing, the Insecticons, Hoist, Trailbreaker, Skids, the remaining dinobots and the Autobot triplechangers.

We are apparently due to get Reflector as a repaint of Perceptor so a 3 bot combining version of him would have to be in a different, future classics style line, Ditto Magnus, Galvatron, Springer, Blaster who have already been (badly) done in Classics.

Unfortunately although combining deluxe gestalts would be superb they've already shown that they have no intention of doing this by giving us the crappy PCC range and various combiner members as Classics repaints (better than nothing I suppose).

I think the likes of Omega Supreme, Metroplex, Scorponok, Fortress Maximus etc won't get made as they would be hopelessly out of scale. G1 reissues of Scorponok and Maximus would more than do for me. (I think Scorponok is possible but doubt they'd ever do Max after he failed the drop test).

The fan catered TF toy lines,IMO,deffinately needs to start doing some bigger sized TF toys again,like voyagers,ultras,leaders & supreme sized TF toys.

I'd like to see the following bigger sized new molds in the next fan catered TF toy lines.

(1) Transmetal 2 Megatron. Yeah I realize it's kinda redundant doing updated new molds for toys that were already decently poseable.

However,That TM2 Megatron $20 sized toy was a royal mess of rubber parts,excess kibble & a general transformation/engineering mess. the toy also suffered from being majorly mis-proportioned. the robot legs were too fat & short. the helmet with the rubber horns & rubber dragon tails pony tail was pure awful.

I'd like to see a brand new mold get made for TM2 megatron in the $20 voyager size scale. that was more stream lined. less kibble. zero rubber parts. better engineering/transformation. better pro-portioned dragon & robot mode.

(2)CR/Rid 2 new voyager sized molds for both Optimus Prime & Ultra magnus.

Instead of optimus & magnus being parts-formers. I'd prefer that the smaller mode for optimus got ommitted. I'd prefer optimus transformed from a one piece fire truck & into his robot mode. similar to the titanium 6 inch Rid Optimus Prime toy.

I honestly want the voyager sized ultra magnus to break up into armor pieces differntly. I wasn't that fond of the forearms swap for the combined form. I'd prefer a optimus+ultra magnus combined form like Energon wingsabrer combined with optimus prime. Or a shirt+pants 2-in-1 combiner type ordeal.

I really like Omega Prime, for many reasons of course, but one of the main ones is that it's not clearly just Optimus Prime wearing a pair of pants or a backpack made of another character. The melding of the 2 into the complete whole is possibly as well done here as it ever has been.
assembling a Neo-G1/TF:TM cast. Please PM if you have (or know of) the following at a reasonable price: Classics or Henkei Astrotrain, Sunstreaker, Sideswipe, or 3rd Party iGear Ratchet and Ironhide.
Also looking for Universe Repugnus and Overbite, Frostbite and Longhorn and any Webdiver toys.
