Hasbro will never make. Sure. But pointing out easely available Takara exclusives is a bit redundant.

Especially when it's only a quick Internet search away I think the last nemesis prime hasbro made was the legends one a few years ago.

Maybe we should update the thread name to incorporate Takara?

There. Let's hope it will be clear enough.

This much better since for example anyone asking for an IDW roller will have technically got their wish from takara with their wandering roller deco. Now we can deal with people's suggestions that neither company have done :-)

A masterpiece that nobody nit-picks to death would be nice. :roll:

Masterpiece Armada figures- specifically Optimus Prime and Megatron. Megatron really just needs to be an upscaled, more articulated version of the vintage figure. Optimus Prime on the other hand...hmm. The cab robot should be ridiculously articulated- essentially an upscaled, more heavily engineered version of Bendy Prime. The trailer should ditch the base mode (did it even appear in the show?) and instead of iterally inverting into a hollow, unposeable pair of legs, should use complex panel-folding to transform the whole mass of the trailer into a properly poseable pair of legs, allowing for a proper Super Mode.

Hell yeah, I too would want MP figures that are not from the G1 verse. And Armada is indeed in need of a serious redux.

It already started. MP Optimus Primal is on the way and some Armada toys have been updated with Starscream and Leader Megatron. More will come for sure, It's just a mater of time.

That over sized KO Evasion Mode Optimus Prime released as MP Evasion Mode Optimus Prime.

Masterpiece Heatwave quad changer.

Need to see cartoon accurate robot mode, fire truck mode with working extension ladder, fireboat mode that really floats, and a Brontosaurs.

Also mini Kade figure to sit in the cab, that of course opens in all modes.

Bonus if the figure walks in dino mode.

now this one is a bit of a puzzle?

i'd've liked either one of the CW Deluxe figures repainted or remolded as this!

OR

maybe one of the RID 2015 figures?(possibly either Quillfire or StrongArm)

YES! i know! it's Burn's sig pic.

problem is....i can't find a pic of this guy's alt mode anywhere :-?

so i could be miles off(with Strongarm & Quillfire)

Stu have you tried asking burn who the bot is and what is alt mode is?

Its G1 Stalker and he turns into a mobile missile carrier.

ah, ok, thanks ;)^

but what CW figure could you retool/remold/repaint from.....to get Stalker?

i'm thinking maybe Brawl?.....or Rook?.....or even Onslaught?

News Credits: 1350 · by **ZeroWolf** » Sat Feb 06, 2016 8:30 pm

I think rook would be the best bet.

News Credits: 19 · by **Stuartmaximus** » Sat Feb 06, 2016 8:35 pm

aye Rook for the G1 version of Stalker!

but for this version

i think a heavy retool from Sky Lynx would be the best bet!

but as the title of this thread states!
it'll never happen coz they'll never make it

The return of realistic beast modes, not just for updates of Beast Wars characters, but new designs. I don't see why "robots in disguise" needs to be thrown out if the alt-mode has legs instead of wheels. That's actually what kept me from getting into Transformers as a kid, the G2 Dinobots in specific looked terrible on the shelves.

Only problem I can see with more beast modes is that some of them would represent big challenges in engineering to pull off a good animal/insect/fish/spider/etc and a good bot mode.

Having said that, I'm all for more beast modes :-D

they should do another line after the prime wars trilogy that focuses in this aspect.

For instance, how about a wolf combiner whose team name is the pack? The gestalt name could be Far Cry or Midnight Howl or something like that.

No way, Stalker would be a retool of CW Onslaught with a new missile launcher accessory. He would combine with four jet Predators to form Skyquake.
