I think the RainMakers should make a firm step into the Transformers timeline, they've always ben sort of in and out. I think they should be sunstorm, acidstorm, and hialstorm(or if its hard to trademark halestorm,sounds like "hial"?)What do you thinks the third mistery-former should be named? And if you think hasbro should make the remianing 2 rainmakers(under univese line) :-?

That type of storm is spelled Hailstorm, and I think that name is perfect. I really expect Hasbro to give us a yellow and purple Seeker or I'll be disappointed.

Actually, Sunstorm wasn't one of the rainmakers, he was the orange Seeker in the "welcoming committee" that tried to stop Wheeljack and Bumblebee.

The Rainmakers were green, yellow and blue (though not the same blue as Thundercracker)

Personally, I vote for Fire Storm and Ice Storm for the other two, and if Has/Tak won't make 'em, there's always more Starcreams to repaint...

Honestly if it wasn't for the fact his bio points to Acidstorm as being one of those three as his colors have been muted for the actual toy, I would almost say he isn't one of those three and if I was to name them it would be Lime, Blueberry and Lemon.

Fear the evil Decepticon Blueberry!

I'm not usually a fan of repaints, but I am keen on getting 2 more Universe/Classics seekers. Sunstorm and a "non-Thundercracker blue" fella. Hailstorm sounds good, but I wouldn't mind ditching the 'storm' suffix just to vary it up a bit.

If they need some repaints to fill out a wave of otherwise new moulds, then that wouldn't be a bad way to do it.

I think they should still all have the suffix storm, just to show there a group, and you never know sunstorm could have been with the rianmaker group and a few episodes later attacking wheel-jack with another group of seekers.I mean starscream wasn't always with thundercracker and skywarp right? 8-}

I'm not trying to be a jerk, but its RAINmakers. You keep putting i's in the wrong spots in almost every word that has an i. I'm really not trying to be a jerk, because I don't know your exact situation. I'm just saying, you misplaced your i a lot

Yeah, you should fix it up in your sig in particular hippymule.

I don't know though, the seekers are a group but they aren't all named the same. Ditto for the coneheads... though that's no really a proper group name. My attitude is that Cybertronians should have been given a name before they are 'put to work' and join the Decepticon airforce or whatever.

Indeed. Are they digibashed or custom painted?

Either way, they look sweet.

Personally, I'm cool with considering Sunstorm as one of the Rainmakers, and I'm cool with "HailStorm" as the third. Or any name really, as long as they make him. A 9 Seeker display would just be too sweet.

See, then we would have a full seeker squadron and another 24 we could have a group and another 60 we could have a full seeker wing!

ya I know but this guy on tfw05 did these a just save the pictures and added some "finece"

thats were I got the Idea for Hialstorm

Im all for the idea...I prefer the name "Hydrostorm" as created by one talented kitbasher who posts his work on the kitbash section. I cant remember his name but he did some nice repaints of the crainmakers for both classics ands animated. He even created a 4th conehead.

Bring on the Rainmakers; Sunstorm, Acid Storm and if they make him, whatever they call the third one.

I think it would makes perfect sense.

If Hasbro don't do it they I could definitely see TakaraTomy releasing Sunstorm and Acid Storm at least as exclusives available via ToyHobbyMarket and Ganbo like Skywarp/Thundercracker and Dirge/Thrust. :ic$:
