I'd love to see a custom-made Armada Megatron in G1 colors.

Fri Oct 22, 2010 4:56 am

I seriously wish there was a production run of HA Jazz done up like how Frenzy_Rumble did it. That mold looks amazing in G1 garb, and FR did an awesome job on that. Check it out in the Kitbashing forums.

As for a repaint that could possibly happen in this lifetime........

A blue Tracks repaint of Deluxe Movie Sideswipe.

Also, I think i posted this in another thread, but I'd love to see a G1-accurate repaint of Cybertron Primus. The red-and-yellow Rodimus colors.

PCC Leadfoot in Drag Strip's colors

News Credits: 1 · Fri Oct 22, 2010 9:35 am

Any Optimus Prime into Guiltor, obviously. However, Animated Wingblade Prime would work really good. His alt. mode looks goofy as a Prime, weird flying firetruck(well, weirder looking than Cybertron Prime). But as Guiltor? Makes perfect sense.

Also, Activator Rally Rumble Optimus Prime? Yellow lightning bolts, very Guiltor-esque. Maybe there's hope after all....

Fri Oct 22, 2010 2:23 pm

Cybertron Optimus Prime as Ultra Magnus
Cybertron Scourge as Hun-grr
Cybertron Primus in the red and orange G1 style.
Armada Overload with fitting Minicons as menasor and the stunticons. I mean dragster car painted yellow and so on and the headmaster minicon as motormaster.
WFC megatron repaint as galvatron
WFC Optimus prime repainted as ultra magnus.

G1 wheeljack recoloured as splicer
G1 mirage recoloured close to WFC Barricade.
G1 seekers coloured as the rainmakers
G1 devastator coloured in red, grey and blue autobot colours
G1 defensor having hotspot coloured red and call him smolder let the arms be black police vehicles and call them stockade/first aid, Barricade/Streetwise, Sideways/glide and blackout(grindor/blades

And this is just my short list

Fri Oct 22, 2010 8:58 pm

-Special Ops Jazz as Stepper/Ricochet
-Generations Tracks/Wheeljack given a new head and done as Road Rage

Sat Oct 23, 2010 1:42 am

Classics Sunstreaker/Sideswipe retooled with a new head as classics Breakdown
R.I.D. Optimus Prime as Classics Hotspot
Classics Rodimus Retooled as Wildrider
Cybertron Downshift as Classics Chromedome
Thats all I can think of for now

Sat Oct 23, 2010 7:42 am

Cybertron Clocker as Hot Rod

Energon Divebomb as Banzai-tron

Classics Megatron as Treadshot

RID Ultra Magnus as Motormaster

RID Optimus Prime as Nemesis Prime

Robotmasters Mirage as Drag Strip/G2 Double Clutch

G1 Reissue Sideswipe as RID REV

G1 Wheeljack as Slicer

Cruellock in G1 Dinobot colours as Tyrannitron

G2 Dreadwing as Pre-Beast Rampage

War Within Seeker mold as Terrorsaur/Swoop (Thrust already closely resembles Terrorsaur's toon colour scheme)

Classics Jetfire as Cloudburst (inner bot)

Cybertron Starscream as G2 Jhiaxus

All the Legends repaints transferred to their larger counterparts such Defence Red Alert to Perceptor and Scourge to Trypticon/Hun-gurrr

Sat Oct 23, 2010 8:18 am

I think Rodimus would make a good Chromedome.

Sat Oct 23, 2010 12:54 pm

war for cybertron bumblebee in green as wasp. So we'd have stop light colors!

Now that is a great idea :APPLAUSE:

If HasTak did that and made Masterpiece Galvatron it would be amazing, all his crappy figures over the years could be forgotten as he would have a couple of great ones to take their places. I would only allow the G1 E-Hobby repaint to remain in my collection with the 2 new additions.

Mon Oct 25, 2010 9:10 am

Yeah I'd Like to see a WFC Galvatron too

Seconded. It's a great mold that could use some love. and after the atrocity that was Universe 2.0 Galvatron (I admittedly like the look of that figure, but it was still an awful toy) I think a nice, crisp Galvatron could do us some good. And while people will be bitching about it not having the right head or whatever else they can think of, I think that a straight repaint'd be just fine.

Also, to address a few of the comments...

G1 repaints are pretty much exclusive to E-Hobby, which sucks since it's something you always have to pay far out the ass for. And if you're wanting that character in modern terms and want to pay, you could always go for...

Classics Rodimus Retooled as Wildrider

Totally agree with you on the first two. Breakdown's been done with his G2 incarnation, but let's face it, a G1 deco would look fantastic with that mold. As for Wildrider...

It's not perfect, and also ridiculously expensive now, but that'll do, pig. That'll do.

I'm with you, really hoping for this one

Shattered Grass? I guess if you really wanted to take a lawnmower to Grimlock... ba dum bum ching! I kid, I kid :3 Seriously though, as cool as it would be I really don't see this one as being possible. The Shattered Glass universe doesn't exist outside of FunPub; that being said, it's too expensive a figure to be produced for BotCon (If two deluxes can sell for $70, how much would a figure that already costs more than that have to go for? @_@) and if TFCC did do it for some reason, they'd probably keep the Trypticon-inspired colour scheme of the original BotCon toy. Though they've never been in the habit of recycling molds or characters, barring G2 Breakdown, so yeah...

Still, it'd be really frickin' cool though.

For my own sake, I'd really like to see Cybertron Menasor turned into Omega Supreme. Considering it was the basis for Omega Doom in the SG Universe, FunPub could surprise us one day maybe? Here's hoping. Beyond that, I'm more curious to see what repaints Hasbro will do with the upcoming Generations figures. Specifically Kup and Wreck-Gar...

millions, but I heartily endorse Screamfleet's suggestion of WFC Wasp, since I've played the green-BB as Wasp in MP a fair bit. hadn't even thought of the traffic light idea.

honestly, most BB molds could be repainted into about as many guys as the Starscream's are.

Mon Oct 25, 2010 4:58 pm

Universe Hound into Swindle
Universe Inferno into Hot Spot (with retooled head and a ladder)

Tue Oct 26, 2010 1:20 am

Gobots Homages I mean the did it for Crasher and Bugbite what about the rest?

Tue Oct 26, 2010 1:49 am

I'd like to see Energon Megatron (repainted/retooled) as Wingblade Optimus Prime (or Nemesis Prime)

Tue Oct 26, 2010 7:52 am

Generations Tracks as G1 Dead end
Classics Prowl retooled as Streetwise
Classics Ratchet as First Aid
Classics Optimus Prime redecoed as Powered Convoy

-Tomahawk with a new head and retooled right hand as Whirl
-Terradive as Beast Machines Jetstorm
-Red Movie Voyager Ironhide (any version of the Voyager mold would be okay except for the Recon version)
-Generations Jazz as Ricochet
-Sidearm Sideswipe with the black/silver colour scheme his Human Alliance repaint has

News Credits: 3 · Tue Oct 26, 2010 7:58 pm

I think both of those would be great too.
I'd like to see Takara Tomy do a better job with Acid Storm than Hasbro did - and give us Classics Sunstorm already!!
