We...did. 2013-14 generations were about 90% characters featured in the comics. Skids, Brainstorm, tailgate, gears Orion pax, Trailbreaker, bumblebee, stealth bomber Megatron etc, even the jhiaxus retool head was entirely based on the IDW version.

There aren't that many Samurai themed Transformers characters. Drift and Bludgeon are basically the two main ones.

Beside, the toy and character designs varies so much for Drift, they may as well all be different characters. Seriously, take the IDW, Movie, and RiD versions and put them next to each others. If you don't know their names, they will be different characters. No colors matches, no overall shape match, not even the faces.
As for Bludgeon, all of his different iterations are the exact same. Same overall shape, same colors, same features. Even the noob who know nothing can tell he's the same guy.

But neither the Bludgeons nor the Drifts are the same characters. Sure, they share names and themes, but for each you've got a G1 character, a movie character, and an RID character. Three characters named Drift are on the list, but not the same Drift. Look at the Top 10 Best Optimus Prime (Convoy) Toys list, it represents seven different characters, not the same character 10 times.
Anyway, I can't really disagree with the list, even though my favorite is still Action Master Banzaitron.

I so need ROTF Bludgeon, and while I own the G2 Megs repaint, I don't think it's good enough. Maybe as BWII Megastorm, but what bothers me is that the plastic feels thin. Does anyone that have both figures know the differences in terms of plastic quality between Bludgeon and GDO Megs?

I would have gone with ninjas instead. You might be able to pull off 5 different characters without pulling the continuity thing. Or if you went with martial arts practitioners there would be much more to choose from.
