This is one thread with all the ideas for recolors you would want to see done on 3rd party Transformers. Please list the company and toy you'd modify and what color changes you would want to see in it. You are also allowed to suggest a remolded head and new weapons with your recolors.

For instance, if you wanted to see igear's Weapon Specialist recolored as Transformers Crossovers Scooby DOo Van, you say:

iGear - Weapons Specialist - in Mystery Machine colors, new head looking like robotic Fred Majors.

I'll keep a running list here (combining with lists from other forums):

Autobot/Maximal recolours of one of the Predacon sets.
- Tigatron (or Catilla - Tigs fits the colour scheme better though), Lio Prime, Rhinox, Silverbolt (BW or Airrazor) and Stampede. I don't even think they're need new heads. Maybe for Rhinox.

One of the best things about the 3rd party scene is that each character can get their own unique mould. I dunno if I'd really like too many recolors.

That said, I'd definitely buy recolored Arcees as the other Fembots if they had different heads. Maybe PE's motocycle bot could do it most effectively. IT's Nightbird was a great idea, the execution just sucked.

Fansproject - Steelcore - into overlord. new head a little remolding. new colors would look awesome.

You mean Overload?

[Rated X]

Art Feather Bumblebee repainted as Glyph and Tap Out(new head) Igear Delicate Warrior repainted as Paradon Medic would be nice to replace the IT version.

I know what you mean. Re-decos and remolds are a territory of Hasbro and Takara which contributed to the development of the third parties.

On the other hand, one that's been on my mind is:

ToyWorld - TW-H01 Hardbone - New head and Roadbuster colours

I know armada overload is the logical reprint for steelcore but I can really see an IDW overlord worked out of this mold lol =X

Art Feather Bumblebee in red for the homage to the G1 Cliff-Bee.

Pretty sure that would finish off my GeeWunny Scouts.

STAMPEDE! (ironically, I don't even know who Longhorn is)


edit: also, what's Fansproject Intimidator?

I don't know who Stampede is. Longhorn is a Maximal bull from Beast Machines.

There is a Magna Stampede who is a unicorn from Beast Machines or Universe.

Intimidator is FansProject not-Menasor.

[craggy]

cool, thanks. i didn't know all of that.

i do have Magna Stampede though, he's awesome. Kinda rubbish, but awesome.

edit: wait, you don't know who Stampede is? He's from a text story in one of the old UK annuals. He's teamed with Sunstreaker, Prowl and Jazz and a buncha other guys. He's the redshirt of the team basically.
