I mean:

As far as I'm concerned no other repaint has been more important to Transformers as a franchise, aside from maybe Ultra Magnus. This is the guy that set the standard with red windows and teal highlights (the G1 JAFCON exclusive from the same year lacked theses traits). I love Scourge/Nemesis Prime repaints and this is the guy that kept them from being simple black figures.

I don't have him but i wish i did. The blue redeco of 2007 Ironhide. It looks a lot like G2 Gobot minifigure Motormouth.

I'd be tempted to add Energon Sixshot myself, looking as he does like the G2 Shockwave we never got. I wish the Shockwave that came with G2 Bruticus had been coloured like him.

Scourge is a great repaint. But more so because of the backstory associated with him from R.I.D Car Robots. Yes I own that figure after many years of searching for one at a decent price. But the figure itself is still so good, I was tempted to get the Year of the Goat version.

"CRAZY DECOS ONLY"

It feels like we haven't got new top lists for a while. Is it postponed, or discontinued?

I ran out of all the ones that I had in the bank and have been very busy with all sorts of stuff. They will come back when I can finish some more.

Eh. The Thrust-esque color scheme looks cool and all, but it was massively show-inaccurate. Hasbro did that on purpose - they wanted to make the Official OSKO that is Supreme-class Starscream more attractive, so they only sold the Voyager Starscream in that 2-pack and gave him an inaccurate color scheme to boot. They also changed Overhaul and Jetfire's keys from the correct Cybertron-style to Jungle and Earth, respectively.
